    Default Bitcoin.Casino domain sells for record amount

    According to a report on NewsBTC.com, Florida-based Casino Holding Inc. has purchased the domain Bitcoin.Casino from Sedo, a domain name and website marketplace located in Massachusetts, for $26,000.

    The news comes on the heels of bitcoin hitting a new record high of $1,193.32 on Monday morning.

    From the report:

    Even though the price is not as high as what few gambling and casino related domain names have garnered in the past, it is still the highest anyone has spent on a “.casino” top level domain. The costliest casino related domain name bought so far is perhaps “Casino.com” which was sold in 2003 for $5.5 million. Following it closely is “Gambling.com”, dictating a price of $2.5 million in 2011.

    That's an example of a nice one in a .com dominated world.

    I find news of this nature interesting. Domain names with a bitcoin and casino element are generally pretty solid to strong news fodder.

    I guess I will be hanging onto our social media brand, Bitcoin News Media : ) Part of the Media Man group.

    Good hunting.

    True. However Bigfish was a huge affiliate in the past before he left. Highly possible that he just places content to get the site age before really working on it.
