More buyers want to pay for domains in crypto. So we now accept direct USDC and USDT, up to $1M. No third-party account, no approval steps. A lot of capital sits in stablecoins. Making it easy to spend on a domain opens up a new pool of buyers. Direct stablecoin payouts to sellers next.

Mostly agree, except the conclusion. Agents follow trust signals. Trust signals accumulate around strong names, because names are what humans remember, repeat, and link to. A strong name earns citations, citations earn retrieval, retrieval earns more citations. The flywheel that used to spin on SEO now spins on the name. The address bar is dying. The address isn't.
we’re entering the end stage of the address bar, domains, tabs, & all the stupid dumb tech plumbing browsers exposed to normal users. i.e. i almost never begin at the browser layer anymore. the journey starts in claude, chatgpt, siri, or some other ai system. which means the browser has been demoted from destination to runtime. you still might land there via links, checkout, dashboards, authentication, & documents. but you rarely *start* there. websites are no longer competing primarily to be visited. they’re competing to be retrieved, cited, acted on, & represented correctly by agents. traffic becomes an implementation detail. which is why killing atlas was probably one of openai’s smarter decisions & i have written about it ton a year + ago (search my tweets). the browser itself will matter less & less. the systems that understand intent, choose where to go, & act on your behalf will matter far more.

Replying to @WuBlockchain
It's amazing how many companies and CEOs don't understand a $70M acquisition like this. They didn't buy a domain name. They bought a permanent seat in a $100 trillion emerging industry. Congratulations to all parties!!

The only way to achieve true internet independence is via your own domain brand. Yes, search engines and social media are important, but make them your branding priority and you will learn a hard and expensive lesson. Always better to be a master than a slave. #branding #Domains
