NamesCon 2023: Exploring Domains, Auctions, and Digital Identities

I❤️Domains TECH Talk

Ever wondered how the shift from Web 2 to Web 3 is changing the game for entrepreneurs and investors alike? Let's peel back the layers and explore this digital frontier together. In our conversation, we weave through the intricate relationship between Web 2 entrepreneurs and individuals stepping into the Web 3 space. We unpack the increasing tribal nature of Web3 domains, and ponder who's more prevalent - platform-based crowds or individual investors. Through our chats, you'll grasp the economic implications of Web 3 domains and the potential future of domain auctions.
We’ll guide you through the ties between Web 2 entrepreneurs and Web 3 newcomers. Plus, we'll shed light on the prospects of domains serving as a digital identity. As a cherry on top, we share our thrilling experiences with barbecue in the area, and we even contemplate the creation of a hot sauce TLD - and the best ways to broadcast its existence.
Finally, we touch upon the riveting realm of domain auctions and number plates, and how they tie into Web 3. We lift the veil on the Middle East's booming number plate market, and how it contrasts with domain names and wallet addresses. You'll hear about the sheer excitement that comes with domain auctions and to wrap things up, we announce a surprise giveaway of a domain to one lucky listener. So, join us on this tech voyage and remember to check the comments to find out if you've hit the jackpot!
