In recent years, market volatility has increased and the revenues of many businesses and individuals have declined, which has made them less interested in purchasing domain names. The market demand for generic domain names has correspondingly declined, as people are more inclined to invest their money in areas that offer more tangible benefits. It makes sense, therefore, that the volume of premium domain names is on the rise. This shows that the market still favors premium domain names, which not only have investment value, but can also be used practically.
