I don’t see Ver selling bitcoin.com unless bcash is no more, or Ver decides to get back into bitcoin.

I still don't see Ver selling bitcoin.com even if BCH dies. The potential money that could be made using the domain is still a lot, and that it could also be worth a lot more in the future as more money comes into bitcoin and as adoption grows. Unless of course, that he would be offered a huge sum of money; higher than it's current value(whatever the value may be).
If the domain no longer serves the political purpose of promoting BCH, Ver can calculate how much income the domain is expected to generate over time, and use a net present value estimation of the value of the future income to determine how much the domain is worth. If he receives an offer greater than this amount, he will likely sell the domain.  

The political value of bitcoin.com far outweighs the FMV of the domain IMO.

this is key---roger has sunk a lot of capital into BCH. the launch of the bitcoin.com exchange (pushing BCH pairs) shows he's obviously prepared to dig himself even deeper. there's no way he's giving up the domain, especially after losing the @bitcoin twitter handle.
Ideally he will eventually come to his senses regarding BCH. I really don't see the value in storing a transaction for every time someone buys a coffee in New York or Miami (I have no interest in keeping transactions from across the country). I don't know how much of his net worth is tied up in BCH, and how much BTC he has left, and how easily he could convert his BCH into BTC without destroying the price of BCH.

BTC price road to $80k
This domain is not easy to estimate the price I'm sure the value will be a hundred k+ or millions due to high traffic and high authority backlinks like the analysis from similarweb posted above. As you can see on the analysis that the half of the traffics comes from a direct source it means most people directly type bitcoin.com into the browser.

Why not use some Domain value calculator? I think it will give you the estimated value of the website, not accurate but it will still give you the idea of how much will be the value of the website.

Look at this estimator here https://bitcoin.com.cutestat.com/
The estimated value for that domain is $ 1,580,040.00

Too expensive...

How about this estimator http://www.markosweb.com/www/bitcoin.com/
The estimated domain worth is $6,002
Pretty cheap compared to above...

So it's not easy to estimate what will be the value of this domain if you want a list of website value estimator you can check them from here 9 Websites to Check Your Website Value Online

What happened to that account, s/he started giving inaccurate and sometimes conflicting information, I tried to correct one of that information but he blocked me. Cry Cry Cry
At least it's better than before.

It seems that @Bitcoin is owned by someone unkown who's leasing out that account to the highest bidder. The highest bidder used to be Roger Ver, hence the BCash propaganda posts, but now it's controlled by a true Bitcoiner with a dislike towards everything Roger Ver was Tweeting about.

The downside to this is that we don't know what will happen when the person who's currently in control of the @Bitcoin account no longer has the funds to extend the lease. In that case I'm pretty certain that Roger will attempt to get it back to shill BCash crap again. It really sucks that the actual account owner only cares about profiteering and not about the community that Roger has been lying to for so long.

This is the current account lessee; https://twitter.com/theinstagibbs/status/1163837511287869441

Anything does have a price and we wouldnt know if Ver will reconsider it if he do see some considerable numbers that been offered but for sure it wont be cheap but for now
I dont see a reason for him to sell it out, when it comes to financial aspect we know Rogers capability and for sure he wont need some cash at the moment.
The time comes where he do need to pull out some then the possibilities is always there.

If Roge offers it for sale, Did you think that theymos will buy it? I don't know but I think he has enough money and motivation to do it.
I don't think theymos has a few spare millions to blow on a domain. It's more likely that it would be bought by Jack, Twitter and Square CEO, or maybe Tim Draper if he feels it can help him business-wise.

It's a great domain for sure, but the thing is that not many people can put that domain to work in an efficient and profitable way. Roger has shown how to turn it into a money making machine and symbol of power.

Roger has enough BTC left he can dump to finance his businesses. He would do everything to not sell it. At the end of the day, just keeping that domain will only cost him $10 a year. Not a big deal.

Metawin.com - Truly the best casino ever
Estimates on how much bitcoin.com would fetch on the open market?
He leased / rented it a few years ago for something around 10k/month, but the people who leased it were garbage at running a website / business and he took it back.

As for the value I don't think he will sell it and doubt he'll put a value on it.
Please can you share the history of bitcoin.com domain? I am really interested how Roger get his hands on this domain and somehow curious, why theymos and people behind bitcointalk.org / bitcoin.org didn't get that domain.
On another hand OP, it doesn't matter much what was website's history which was built on bitcoin.com domain if Roger plans to sell because this is top domain. Just check yourself keyword "Bitcoin" in google keyword planner and you'll see the results. So domain bitcoin.com worths millions and if we consider the fact that it's news website, these news worths money too and it adds extra price to it but domain alone still rocks.

Some of these sites are useful in spreading rumors, especially for new members, Bitcoin.com is one of those sites.

What I am more interested in is to find out whether he actually owns the domain in full or not. Before the @Bitcoin Twitter shifted

Definitely well in the millions, but that's today. If you add world reserve currency status at one point in the future, this domain could very well be a few hundred million dollars at today's purchasing power ratio. It's a powerful weapon for both a good and ill minded entity. In Roger's case it (unfortunately) is being used by an ill minded entity.

What I am more interested in is to find out whether he actually owns the domain in full or not. Before the @Bitcoin Twitter shifted narrative people assumed it was Roger's toy, but turns out it wasn't at all. I wouldn't be too surprised if the same applies to bitcoin dot com.

Too bad for Roger that the whitepaper refers to bitcoin.org which everyone in the space is well aware of.  Grin

So anyway, I applied as a merit source :)

Logically a person who holds the dotcom domain name of the biggest cryptocurrency in the world would not sell it unless they fall into some dire situation and become needy of financial support readily. I am sure RVer does not happen to go into such a crisis. After all every altcoin people create is a money making method for them only and not the traders of that coin. However lack of logic and reasoning is pretty high in RVer's mindset and the way he approaches to anybody regarding a criticism does make people think that he is mentally unstable on different levels.

Hence it be very much possible that the domain gets out on auction and its price would be huge, you cant even start to imagine that.

I really can't put a number to it because there are simply too much factors to take into account, but I personally think it's easily easily in the millions range. In an internet marketing perspective, while most of us think that bitcoin.com is definitely not a reputable site/domain, the Google search algorithm thinks otherwise. The domain simply is being used since forever(in bitcoin terms) as far as I know, and the domain has a pretty high domain authority as a result. It has a shit-ton of backlinks.

If you're interested in statistics concerning the domain:

tldr; it's worth A LOT.
