Would You Invest in Domains Like Stocks? Seeking Feedback on My Startup Idea!

[BakrMatlab]

Hey!

I’ve been brainstorming an idea for a platform and wanted to get some honest feedback from this community. The concept is this:

What if domains could be traded like stocks?

Domains are essentially digital real estate, and they hold a lot of untapped value. However, existing marketplaces feel outdated and are primarily aimed at brokers or large investors. My goal is to create a platform where anyone can:

• Buy, sell, and bid on domains seamlessly, just like trading stocks.
• Track domain trends and market analytics in a user-friendly app.
• Manage their domain portfolio all in one place.

And here’s an exciting part of the vision: Fractional domain ownership. This would let multiple investors buy shares of high-value domains, democratizing access to premium assets. While fractional ownership wouldn’t be available at launch, it’s a feature we plan to roll out once we establish the platform and grow the user base.

Why I’m Posting Here:

• Would you use a platform like this? Why or why not?
• Does fractional ownership excite you?
• Are there features you think would make domain trading simpler or more appealing?

We’re currently building a prototype to validate the idea and launching a waitlist soon. Your feedback would mean the world to me as I refine the concept.

Thanks so much for reading—I’m open to all questions, critiques, or suggestions!
