Yea squatters are lame and I don't know why they think they should get paid because they registered it before someone else did. At least domains aren't everything, it's more of the content. You can make a successful website using the domain zzyxw.us if the content is good enough.

Some places, like Twitter, will actually allow you to take over squatted accounts. i.e., someone registered "BitcoinFlying" and never used the account, and you decided to start up a plane service that accepts Bitcoin. You could send them the information of your business and they'll close out the existing account and let you register it.

If the right trillionaire is drunk enough and visiting this joint right now then it's already in the bag.

So, you've purchased hundreds of domains with the hopes that someone will have an idea and want to include you?

How is this different from "plain" domain squatting?
Yeah, sounds terrible Wink, having domain is one thing, making profit out of it is totally diffirent world.

I'm not sure why he's getting knocked. Personally I think it's a really good idea. If bitcoin blows up & achieves mainstream adoption then businessmen/entrepreneurs are going to want to own web domains. He's probably bought them for £100 each on Go Daddy or something & they could sell for 100 times that, maybe more for a good one if bitcoin ends up achieving mainstream adoption.

It's not a 100 million USD business idea but it's got potential to give him pretty good returns. That's all we're trying to do right, make money for a better life?

so...how did it go?

My guess is that the op didnt do enough homework, and googled like the best get rich stuff.

Most of these things are non-observant and other forms are way better. Id rather take my chances of being a youtuber and hoping for 1 video to go viral then spend this stuff.

This forum is weirdly indifferent when it comes to domains. I've never seen much or any interest in a single one for sale. You should shop elsewhere and get better responses.

I was about to say when was the last time you actually bought a domain name right lol.

Like who the hell thinks you can make a million dollars just selling a domain name, unless "Verizon" or some huge enterpise forgot to re-new and would like to pay for it back. And even then its trademarked so youre force to give it up lol.

100 million dollar idea if its done right. not 100 million, but it should be more of a comfortable 5 figure range to be realistic.

Most wont do this though, esp take the time to build it out esp the affiliate website you mention at the top. Also you cant build a slimy sales one page website for affliate site anymore or you`ll get frowned upon.

as for the other ideas, I dont think theres any luck on domain hunting unless you knew a startup was using it and they want it badly enough to pay for it.

So much hatred for entrepreneurship and capitalism. Interesting.

not at all, he is hurting the community by killing peoples future business ideas. If joe blow wanted to open XYZ and had a great website name picked out was pretty sure no other business had the name, then goes to register to find out some jerk is ransoming it off. He now has to come out of poket 100X more then he would if he went to godaddy or something and paid the 3.99 or whatever. Now the NEW business man has lost capital cause some turd burgler wanted to squat domain names. We have a few business that could afford hits like that here but most of the small businesses do not have a extra 100 dollars for a domain name.


Essentially, this.

You are a geek if you are too early to the party!
This is one of those ideas that sounds really good when you are drunk in a bar, but in the cold light of day, it sux! Smiley

The reality is that nobody is going to buy your domains because nobody tends to buy from a domain squatter if they don't have to!

I already have a domain with bitcoin in it, and I am already regretting it - the more I've thought about it, the more I don't think its suitable.

And it didn't cost me more than $5!
