100.com is traded again,there are only 9 such domain names in the world

Premium domain names always attract enthusiasts. Recently, there have been reports of another transaction involving the whole-number domain name "100.com."

According to WHOIS information, "100.com" had an update record in August of this year, indicating a likely transaction during that period. Registered in 1996, "100.com" has a 25-year history, and whole-number domains hold rich significance. They are not only easy to remember and distinctive but also offer great flexibility for website development, making them consistently popular in the market.

Prior to this recent transaction, "100.com" was acquired and used as the official website domain by the internet education institution "100 Education" for $950,000 USD (approximately 5.8 million RMB) in 2014. "100 Education" is an educational brand under the Joyoung Times Group and has received investment from Xiaomi's Lei Jun.

However, today, the official entrance for "100 Education" can no longer be found, and "100.com" remains unused. Scarce items are often considered valuable, and with only nine whole-number domain names like "100.com" globally, its potential value is substantial.

- "200.com," registered in 1996, was previously used to create an overseas sports and health information website but is currently inactive.

- "300.com," registered in May 1998, has not been used for website development.

- "400.com," registered in March 1996, was once a wedding gift from the well-known investor "Lei Zhu" to his wife and himself. In 2015, it was acquired and developed into the "Shangketong 400 Platform" by Chen Donghong, the founder of Speciality Unicom. It is currently in use as a business communication platform.

- "500.com," registered in 1996, is now a website for "500彩票网" (500 Lottery Network). Initially, the platform used the domain name "500wan.com" and later ventured into the blockchain sector by acquiring "BTC.com."

- "600.com," registered in 1997, indicated "under construction" as far back as 2014 and continues to display the same message.

- "700.com," registered in 1997, was involved in transactions worth millions in 2019.

- "800.com," registered in 1998, is the most recently registered among these nine domain names. In 2012, Quamtel Corporation sold it for $850,000 USD to its former sole shareholder, Steven Ivester, to pay off debts. Currently, "800.com" functions as a global free telephone communication website.

- "900.com," registered in 1996, now serves as the official website domain for the game "仙境传奇" (Ragnarok Online) and belongs to Xiamen Guanying Network Technology Co., Ltd.

In summary, numeric domain names, due to their multiple advantages, represent a domain category with significant potential for appreciation and investment value. These rare nine whole-number .com domain names, whether traded, stored away, or used for website development, add a touch of brilliance to the domain landscape. Many businesses have successfully established their brands with pure numeric domain names, and the value of numeric domains continues to rise. The recent transaction of "100.com" reaffirms the allure of numeric domain names.
