CarbonEnergy.com sold for $400,000, and 18 years of perseverance finally paid off

A domain name investment case with both patience and vision

NamePros member Nametra.com disclosed yesterday that the domain name CarbonEnergy.com, which it had held for nearly 18 years, was successfully sold on June 10, 2025, with a transaction price of $400,000. This domain name was originally acquired in 2006 for only $105. After a long period of precipitation and industry evolution, it finally brought the holder a net profit of $340,000 (after deducting 15% commission).

Some key information of this transaction is as follows:

Domain name: CarbonEnergy.com

Transaction price: $400,000

Purchase price: $105

Net income: $340,000

Holding time: about 18.5 years

Sale time: June 10, 2025

The reason why this transaction has attracted industry attention is that in addition to the strong representativeness of the price itself, the industry value contained in the domain name "CarbonEnergy.com" itself cannot be ignored. As a compound English word domain name with a clear structure and standard spelling, "Carbon Energy" fits the current global energy structure change and the promotion of carbon neutrality policies. It can be used for brand building of traditional energy companies, as well as emerging green technology tracks such as carbon capture, carbon trading, and new energy, with strong industry relevance and foresight.

The transaction of CarbonEnergy.com not only demonstrates the investment potential of high-quality industry word combination domain names, but also once again verifies the convertibility of domain names as digital assets in specific fields in the long term. For domain name investors, this is not only an inspiring success story, but also an operational template worthy of in-depth study.
