The off-season ended a little early this year, judging by the latest domain sales figures. Many high-priced domain name sales were recorded giving the market a shot in the arm. One of the biggest hits was created by Koko.com with a $1 million dollar sale. This is the third highest publicly reported domain sale of the year so far, behind Gold.com ($8.515 million) and TP.com ($1.2 million). There are undoubtedly more 7-figure sales to come this year, but most of these sales are done under non-disclosure agreements.

.com domains almost always take the lion's share of the list when big-number sales occur, and it was no different this time around. .com domains amassed 15 listings, with the remaining five belonging to non-.com gTLDs. that doesn't mean that ccTLDs are underperforming these past few weeks. On the contrary, they reached five five-figure sales (selling Reactor.ai for $20,000), which would have made the list in almost any other week, but this time came up slightly short in a large number of high-end sales. If it weren't for the non-disclosure agreement, the sales would have been more.

It was revealed that Public.com changed hands three years ago for $900,000. One of the biggest deals ever - a whopping $9,999,950 for Fund.com - has been removed. The deal was reported in an SEC filing 16 years ago, but since then many have been skeptical, and as it turns out, the skepticism was correct. Due to the fact that you can be arrested for knowingly filing false information with the SEC and there was no evidence to refute it at the time, it has now been proven to be a fraudulent transaction.

Here are the sales of the leaders for the two weeks ending Sunday, August 11, 2024
