Recently, domain investor Sohrab revealed on the X platform that his .ai domain name, which features repeated numeric characters, was successfully sold for $23,000. He jokingly commented in the post, "I guess I set a new record for Number/Number.ai."

As a simple, repetitive numeric domain name, it possesses the universality and memorability of numeric domain names. Repeated numeric characters (such as 11, 22, 33, 44) have always held unique aesthetic value and high recognizability in the domain name market.
Furthermore, the combination of "number + .ai" has rapidly gained popularity in the past two years with the explosion of the artificial intelligence industry, making related domain names more widely applicable in business scenarios. Whether it's AI tools, algorithm platforms, model API entry points, or branding projects, they all have high adaptability.

At the same time, the global recognition of the .ai suffix continues to rise. The pricing structure has gradually shifted from early "small-scale transactions within the tech circle" to a broader market driven by corporate demand, making high-quality, scarce short .ai domains even more sought after. Against this backdrop, the inherent scarcity of numeric domains further amplifies their market value.
Overall, the sale of 44.ai once again demonstrates that within the highly popular .ai suffix, short, scarce, and easily identifiable assets continue to exhibit strong market performance, with numeric domains being a crucial and undeniable segment.
