See here the Top 5 domain name articles of 2017 (Frank Schilling, bitcoin and .xyz, Rick Schwartz, Uniregistry, .XYZ).

Here are the top 10 posts for January 2018 in order of views:

  1. Topcoin sale has started – Anybody that buys TopCoin is simply an idiot.
  2. GoDaddy violates ICANN whois rules and now makes it official
  3. CryptoWorld.com sold for $195k to the Binance cryptocurrency exchange
  4. Mike Mann sells CryptoWorld.com for $195k
  5. Mike Mann sells 8 domains in December for $92,052

  9. 27 New gTLDs were approved by China’s Ministry of Industry and Information Technology
  10. Donuts sells the domain name Home.Loans for $500,000

And here are a few posts that I think are important and most people missed them probably because of bad timing:

  1. Another bad ICANN decision: on August 1st 2018 thousands of New gTLD domains will be blocked from registration
  2. .NYC has sold 515 premium .nyc domain names for a total of $595,157
  3. GoDaddy has no Android App and people on Google Play think the “GoDaddy Investor” app is fake!

Make sure you visit the The Michael Gleissner UDRP Tracker – Reverse Domain Name Hijacking (RDNH). Everybody should be keep an eye on him. Especially after this.
