Q1 liquid domain report shows huge drop in value for 3L .COMs
Every quarter Ivan Rasskazov and Giuseppe Graziano put together a report of the liquid domain name market. Note the word liquid which is critical to understand since this report does not cover the entire domain industry but instead focuses on a specific category of domain.
So what is a liquid domain? This report focuses on the following categories of liquid domain names:
- LL .COMs
- 3L .COMs
- 4L .COMs
- NN .COMs
- 3N .COMs
- 4N .COMs
- 5N .COMs
- CC .COMs
These categories are considered liquid because investors can look at market values for names in these categories, i.e. someone can look and say, ah a 5N .COM is currently selling for X on average, and find a buyer in and around that price.
Generic words like Cool.com are without a doubt incredibly valuable (and very liquid) domain names, but have much more variability in pricing. Many amazing one and two-word .COMs that have plenty of value aren’t tracked in the same way that domains in the category above are. Liquid domains, as listed above can be tracked just like stocks in a stock market and in China they really are considered a true asset class with values based on the organization of letters and numbers in short .COM domain names.
In the latest report it was interesting to see a small decline in 4L and 5N names (~8%) and a huge drop for Chinese Premium 3L .COMs which lost 50% of their value, yikes! This shows the incredibly variability and unpredictability of the market which is still incredibly nascent and in many ways still being created and defined.
Between countries the US and China are by far the most dominant when it comes to actively buying and selling liquid domains like these. If you want to dive more into the data yourself you can download the report here. Domain Sherpa also has a great interview with the creators of the report which you can watch here.
Now here’s the question. How long are we going to continue to see massive volatility and price swings (like a 50% change) in the liquid domain market until things even out? Or will they always be this erratic? Comment and let your voice be heard!
