I don't like that they are able to raise it significantly higher than inflation.

However, they are a publicly traded company working for those $VRSN holders. As for a company, it hasn't seen much growth for 2020-2021. The increase in rate is sure to add growth back to the stock. Hopefully, they use some of this to pay their debt so that they can pay their shareholders a dividend. If they offered a 3.75% dividend, and you held 1 share to 1 domain, you would ask yourself, "What 7%?"

I suspect a year-after-year increase will shake out some bad domains. People are less likely to hold the ones that they're not heavily invested in if it gets no feelers.
