Both .io and .tv have been hot for years. Startups love .io for its tech vibe, while creators and streamers grab .tv for branding.

But when it comes to real value, which one wins long-term? Some investors say .io is the new .com for SaaS and AI projects. Others argue .tv has stronger mainstream recognition and is easier to explain to non-tech audiences.

Curious to hear what you think, if you had to bet on only one for the next 5 years, would it be .io or .tv and why?
 
Both are limited audiences, you are building a house of bricks with only one door aimed at startups or creators.

I prefer building large houses with many doors of opportunity and these two extensions are not part of it.
Fair view, Maple. And do you think diversification across niche TLDs still adds strategic value long term?
