Pre-bidding has kicked off on the first batch of domains in the RightOfTheDot/NamesCon auction

It’s that time again, and while we won’t be able to sit next to each other, paddles in hand, bidding on domain names, we can sit in a comfy chair at home and bid away. With NamesCon Online kicking off next week Right of the Dot has some exciting things planned for what is very likely going to be the biggest domain auction of 2021.

As usual, thousands of domains were submitted and the team over at ROTD has combed through and curated an awesome list of domains, the first batch which is now ready for pre-bidding

Here’s the skinny on the event which will be bringing that live auction magic direct to your home:

Broadcasting live from a professional video streaming production studio in South Florida, RightOfTheDot will be conducting a 100% LIVE and simulcasted domain auction with World Champion Auctioneer Wayne Wheat and RightOfTheDot President, Monte Cahn. 75-100 names will be selected for the live auction at the end of the pre-bidding period. The Live stream will be carried on the NamesCon website at https://namescon.online and the RightOfTheDot YouTube Channel https://www.youtube.com/c/RightOfTheDot.

To participate, bidders must first register at https://rotd.hibid.com. To place bids over $2,000, bidders must be verified so it’s important not to wait until the last minute to register. Registration with NamesCon Online is not required but is strongly encouraged.

The live auction will take place on Thursday, September 23, 2021, starting at 3:00 PM EDT on the RightOfTheDot auction website https://rotd.hibid.com.

RightOfTheDot will also conduct an online extended auction starting on September 24th with additional premium domains along with those that did not meet reserves in the live auction. This will be a timed auction without an auctioneer. The first lots in the extended auction will begin closing on Thursday, October 7, 2021, at 1:30 PM EDT.

RightOfTheDot will be launching a new premium digital asset auction platform and also be holding its first premium NFT auction in the coming months, so stay tuned for more exciting news to come!

There are some absolutely stellar domains in the auction this year and you can jump in and take a look at this link rotd.hibid.com. Here’s a handful that caught my eye. (and if you click on any of the links below you can put in your pre-bid):

One of the things I’m the most excited about is seeing Wayne in action again. If you’ve ever been to an auction run by Wayne then you probably know it’s a blast. On that note, if you’ve read all the way to this point I have a little surprise for you, here’s a video I took at the last live auction NamesCon had in January of 2020. Enjoy, and get ready for more of this magic next week
