Liquid market report Q2 2025: public domain sales skyrocket reaching $23.7M

Giuseppe Graziano from GGRG partnering with Escrow.com, NameBio.com and Estibot’s parent company Intelium and ShortNames.com published the 36th edition of the Liquid Domains Overview (LXDO), which focuses on the 614,928 .com domains we call “liquid”.

The objective of the report is to present key statistics and generate a debate amongst the industry stakeholders about the fair value of such domains.

Here are a few highlights from this quarter:

• Public sales skyrocketed by 352.24%, reaching $23.7M — the highest disclosed total in years, driven by standout 4L transactions.
• Disclosed sales exploded to $23.711M, largely driven by a spike in 4L .com activity (22M+).
• Escrow.com sales totaled $13.46M, down 20.85% from last quarter, but still showing robust private market activity, with 4L and 3L .coms making up the majority
• 4L .coms led in private escrow.com transactions, generating $8.88M in volume—more than any other category.
• 2L .com domains remain the most developed, with 28.11% in use and a market cap of over $1.6B.
• 5N .coms collapsed: down 60.94% YoY in the 5th percentile, with limited development and liquidity.
