    Budweiser paid someone 30 eth for beer.eth. Gucci just bought Gucci.eth off someone for 10 eth.

    Are you sure its available. I thought the same for some I was gonna do but turns out they were minted. https://opensea.io/collection/ens

    People used to spend all day every day creating any .eth they could think of, I thought it was so stupid.. But yeah def buy any good ones that are available.

    Social media seems to be how a lot of people sell their domains. I think that’s how the person who owned Gucci.eth did it. There’s always open sea too which is a secondary marketplace for crypto domains.

    Yeah @JMG makes a good point to check if it’s already minted. Also check you are buying and not leasing the rights. Unstoppable domains is the site to use if you want a domain that isn’t taken. Open sea is mostly people trying to flip their stuff.

    i'm sure it's available...a few of them actually. i spent about 2 hours last night typing in anything i could and came up with a list.

    what's the best extension to use in your opinions? i've been almost strictly been eyeing ".x" domains, but .nft, .crypto, .coin, .wallet, etc.... are also available at Unstoppable Domains. .eth extension isn't though -- unsure where to get that, or why anyone would even think there's money in .eth extensions to begin with tbh(?)

    They all pretty much function the same. The only one that’s really different is the .z extension

    I’m the proud owner of zuckbuck.nft & zuckbucks.wallet

    pulled the trigger on those, once the financial times and cnet reported that that’s the name that fb is working with for their currency.

    …I’ve got about 10 .eth domains that I really want to buy as well. I’ve spent ~10 hours this week just testing out names and came across a solid list. Gas is so d--- expensive though.

    Nice you're def in the right place. Looks like someone made zuckbucks.eth a few years ago and selling it for 10 eth. Don't let that f---er low ball you.

    For sure. Most investments lose 60% of their value over the course of 6 months. Everyone should expect that.


    You probably bought an NFT instead of a Grand Seiko, huh?

    Yeah and I just bought more. NFTs will play a critical role in Web3 and beyond. Yeah I got liquidated and took some big losses this week but my portfolio grew. Only losers aren't buying this dip right now. Probably will bottom out around 18k and bear market ends next year.

    What the f--- does this even mean?


    Only losers won't buy something that will be worth $18k for $29k?

    It's called averaging down.. This could be the bottom but I'm fine buying until it gets there. Dumbass

    Okay but we never got back above 55 so I was right. Nothing you said is true.. We are still in an uptrend smart guy.

    Your post made more sense when it said "NFT's will play a criticism role" before you edited it to say "NFTs will play a critical role."


    You're really winning... keep doing what you are doing.

    Money is the root of all evil... you wouldn't want to live like me.
