This thread all seems to add up to having a 'cunning plan'.;)
I dare say I'm thinking of turning Japanese ;))

I do not doubt your claims at all. Simply because I have no personal experience with the idn market

Well, a lot has to do with the willingness to invest in "prime property" in domain names - city and country names.

How many people have lost money investing in "prime property" at the early stage of any new technology?

Lots of people have lost thousands of dollars registering hundreds of almost "randomly generated" .com only to find that they can't sell.

Well, DCG has reorganised the forum today and introduced a well structured discussion area in the Gold Forums. DNF is now officially IDN Friendly!

Hopefully at least some of the wider community can now get in to Domaining 2.0 rather than chasing all the latest worthless fads that have been kicking around since decent ASCII dot coms became elevated beyond the pockets of ordinary mortals.

Thanks DCG!

I am not too sure about the legitimacy of this
sale; an idn.net selling for $10,000?! (when I
doubt the .com is even worth $200...).

Methinks a little 'market making' could be at
work here (between buyer and seller) so as to
try and kickstart an aftermarket in idn.com ;-)

Hmm, lets see, who else stands to gain from an
upward trend in idn.com? (oh yes, most of the
IDN speculators here!...). Idn.com's, of EVERY
quality, have usually only ever been sold to other
speculators for $10 to $200 a piece - my question
then is when did idn.com make such a gigantic leap
in value? (when IE7 hasn't even come out yet, and
there have been no further developments in IDN..).

Or are we simply to believe that 'tokyo' is such a
great word that from this point on we should now
a) forget the idn.com sales that have taken place
thus far b) ignore the fact that this is a 2nd place
.net domain (gee, the .com must be worth a fortune
:)) and c) believe that idn.com somehow has the
edge over idn.idn, when in fact, to date, no such
thing has been proven to be the case.

Haha, flash back to the past, i dare say that almost everyone that got into idn then would have made ten folds to a hundred folds on their portfolio by now.

Nice buy, Bill. ;)
