Someone bought 300+ LLL.ca domains on Feb 15th, 2020.

I made a post about it at the time (on another forum):

I'm not sure whether the same person kept most or let them drop, but I was/am also hopeful that limited supply would drive up demand. Fingers crossed, and good luck [notify]AdamDicker[/notify].

Thanks, I do have some plans and insight so let's see what happens over the next year.
I predict a really great year for .ca.

[notify]AdamDicker[/notify], do you get a significant discount from GD (assuming that is who you used) when you buy so many .ca’s in bulk? I ask because that is a lot of renewal fees so you would need to sell more that one of them at a very good price to pay for the renewals.

I got them all at Hexonet.

If a domain investor has a well rounded, sizeable portfolio that is making regular sales, it's probably easier to carry a chunk of a category like LLL.ca today, all things being equal, than compared to back in 2005. If you are selling domains today you're probably getting higher prices than in 2005, so can afford to hold more domains and not have to sell a certain amount of the LLL.ca in the first year of reg. And reg fees haven't gone up that much since 2005, if at all in some cases. And if you can sell one LLL.ca for $1000, that can pay the next year's reg for 100 others. And $1000 would be pretty cheap for an inbound sale these days.

As to demand for .ca, I still think as I've said for years it just kind of seems to remain constant, or at times go up and down in spurts. Hard to pinpoint any one time in the last 10 or 15 years where .ca sales just took off and never looked back. At best it seems to just stay steady. So far 2022 hasn't had many or any blockbuster high profile .ca sales reported at DNJournal that I've seen.

Also with economic uncertainty ahead and possible recession within the next year or two, hard to say what impact that could have on the .ca domain aftermarket. Sometimes it's ok as more people decide to start an online business during those times and need a domain, and everything still seems to be moving more and more online as ever. Yet aside from .com you also see the increased use of .co, .io, .ai, and even now .xyz especially if tech related.

So it's all as uncertain as ever in my mind. I do very little new regs these days, try to keep my existing names renewed, and also drop the odd domain if I've lost confidence in my investment thesis for it.
