Record-breaking transaction more than doubles the prior industry benchmark 

NEW YORK, Feb. 9, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — GetYourDomain.com, a leading global advisory firm specializing in ultra-premium domain names, today announced that it has successfully brokered the $70 million sale of AI.com, establishing the largest domain name transaction ever completed.

The transaction more than doubles the previous domain record of $30 million for Voice.com, resetting the benchmark for the value of category-defining digital assets and underscoring the strategic importance of owning the most powerful names on the internet.

The sale was exclusively brokered by Larry Fischer, Founder of GetYourDomain.com. The firm exclusively represented the seller and managed the transaction from initial strategy through closing, working closely with senior executives, legal counsel, and advisors to complete the deal with discretion and precision.

The domain name was purchased by Kris Marszalek, Founder and CEO of Crypto.com. Marszalek has a clear, long-term vision for global brands and category ownership and immediately recognized the strategic importance of AI.com in technological history.

The seller, Arsyan Ismail, originally acquired AI.com because the initials aligned with his name. As artificial intelligence rapidly accelerated and became foundational to global technology, Ismail recognized the extraordinary strategic importance of the domain. In deciding to sell, he sought a buyer whose vision he believed in—one capable of building a lasting legacy around one of the most important digital assets of this era.

“This sale marks a defining moment for digital real estate,” said Larry Fischer. “AI.com is not just a domain name — it represents the front door to one of the most transformative technologies of our generation. The buyer recognized that owning AI.com means owning the category itself.”

The sale reflects a broader shift among elite technology companies and global brands toward acquiring singular, irreplaceable digital assets that provide long-term strategic leverage. As artificial intelligence becomes foundational infrastructure across industries, ownership of category-defining domains is increasingly viewed as a permanent competitive advantage.

With more than 28 years of experience, GetYourDomain.com has advised on many of the most significant domain transactions in history and is widely regarded as a leader in ultra-premium domain brokerage. The firm currently exclusively represents a select portfolio of ultra-premium domain names, including Coding.com, Videos.com, Tools.com, Snack.com, HearingAid.com, and Bullet.com.

“With assets like these, there are no substitutes,” Fischer added. “They cannot be replicated, engineered around, or recreated. When one becomes available, the opportunity may never present itself again.”

Metaplanet Forms Bitcoin-Focused Subsidiaries in Japan and the U.S.

The post Metaplanet Forms Bitcoin-Focused Subsidiaries in Japan and the U.S. appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Metaplanet (3350), the largest bitcoin BTC$116,183.54 treasury company in Japan, said it established two subsidiaries — one in Japan and one in the U.S. — and bought the bitcoin.jp domain name as it strengthens its commitment to the largest cryptocurrency. Bitcoin Japan Inc., will be based in Tokyo and manage a suite of bitcoin-linked media, conferences and online platforms, including the internet domain and Bitcoin Magazine Japan. The U.S. unit, Metaplanet Income Corp., will be based in Miami and focus on generating income from bitcoin-related financial products, including derivatives, the company said in a post on X. Metaplanet noted it launched a bitcoin income generation business in the last quarter of 2024 and aims to further scale these operations through the new subsidiary. Both the wholly owned subsidiaries are led in part by Metaplanet CEO Simon Gerovich. Earlier this month, the firm brought its bitcoin holdings to over 20,000 BTC. It’s currently the world’s sixth-largest bitcoin treasury company, with 20,136 BTC in its balance sheet, according to BitcoinTreasuries data. The leading firm, Strategy (MSTR), has 638,985 BTC. The subsidiaries are being established shortly after the company announced plans to raise a net 204.1 billion yen ($1.4 billion) in an international share sale to bolster its BTC holdings. Metaplanet stock dropped 1.16% on Wednesday. Source: https://www.coindesk.com/business/2025/09/17/metaplanet-sets-up-u-s-japan-subsidiaries-buys-bitcoin-jp-domain-name
