💧 Aged Domains at Odys & GoDaddy (Mar 14)

This week's top brandable and SEO domain picks at GoDaddy Auctions and Odys, plus an update on Handshake domains

March 14, 2023

Hey there 👋,

Last week I spoke on a panel at the Handycon conference on marketing decentralized domains. I’ve not covered Handshake domains in a newsletter for quite some time, so did a write-up in my new Digital Asset Investing editorial newsletter (at invest.beehiiv.com - come subscribe), here’s the post.

I can’t wait for the launch of HNS.ID by Namebase and will be staking my .lazy/ TLD with them. I really want to see an active secondary market for dSLDs on Ethereum. And I’d love to see each TLD have its own collection page on Opensea like Forever Domains, as then it’s easier to create token-gated communities around each TLD.

Talking of Handshake TLDs, here’s a decent one at auction on Namebase right now:

Ok, on to this week’s brandable and SEO domain picks.

Cheers!
