Spotted in Calgary:

I will never ever buy a domain that has a premium renewal fee.

According to NameBio, total sales volume of .ca was 79% higher in 2023 compared to 2022. They are only capturing a small percentage of total sales volume imo, but still an interesting insight.

Domain investing is an easy way to make a hard living! When done right it can be a profitable hobby / side hustle but I can't imagine doing it as a full time job. Having a separate source of income makes it WAY less stressful.

Exactly, not much difference between end user and TBR prices these days.

She also reported selling FLL.ca for CAD $9,352 and BTL.ca for CAD $5,424 which is likely about 10x and 3x gold-rush TBR pricing so both solid sales.

I think you should apply to join their board of directors: Seeking candidates for CIRA’s board You have the professional/legal experience, as well as the domain industry experience.

Other twitter cctld's have dropped. These multiple-national companies can make mistakes, I'm not convinced they are purposely not renewing these names. There is someone on this forum who won an ultra premium .ca on TBR a few years ago that was mistakenly dropped by Walmart. Similar to Twitter...

Elon has cut 80% of Twitter's workforce. Almost a guarantee this domain is not being dropped on purpose... it's chaos over there, even basic things like payroll fell apart. Given the link profile of the domain, it will likely sell for a pretty penny.

I will definitely drop more after the price increase, as I'm mathematical about my portfolio and some domains will no longer have a positive expected value. If the estimated sell through rate x BIN price (minus commission) is less than the renewal fee, I drop the domain. I'll likely end up...

Awesome! I love DN.ca :)

If anyone has an extra Clubhouse invite, I'd appreciate one :)

The longer I hold a domain with no offers, the more likely I am to sell it at a reasonable price. The guy got a 10x return, or he could have held out for more and risked holding it for another 20 years.
