I remember what happened in DNS. Yes they added more TLDs but they were mostly worthless, price action was almost exclusively on .com. It took until 2-3 years ago for the .com narrative to slowly start to fade. As much as I like ENS itself I'm primarily here to make enough money to NEET it out somewhere in a remote location for the rest of my life and if I get any surplus I will use it to finance groups that share my general interests. I'm ok with playing the jew for a while, I don't feel any particular loyalty towards companies who want to acquire my domains.

>The hoarding of these domains gives me dot com era vibes
If anything then it would be web3 (- domains) and that bubble is already bursting where it needs to. Although we'll definitely see bubbles in ENS, there's just no denying it, that's a nonsensical reason not to buy in early though. People who hoarded good .com domains early were technically still in profit even after the bubble bursted and are to this day. There's quite a bit of difference to the .com bubble in regards to how domains played a role, as of right now it's more of a kneejerk reaction people have towards ENS. Most of the confusion comes from the intertwining of .com domains and internet businesses as an idea and people somehow think the biggest hit was towards .com as a domain because it's named the ".com bubble" when it really was the internet businesses using .com that got hit the hardest. Naturally .com domains had some correlation, selling for too high in some cases and attracting many squatters etc but the important part was simply signaling that the business was on the internet, not exactly the domain itself if that makes sense. .com domains and internet businesses came up together as a sort of bundle and even then the domains didn't get hit as much as the businesses. In crypto the domains are only just coming in now when we've already been through multiple bubbles and currently looking for a bottom from the recent bubble (short-term or otherwise). It's exactly this difference in timing that makes it a good opportunity. There's also the difference in potential functions and the fact that we already have similar established markets to compare to.
>AVAX and SOL
Kek. Don't forget to take some of that .3 .crypto .bit .hns .algo or whatever. ENS isn't ethereum exclusive and the direction it's moving in means you won't have to get your name on other chains. If squatting is a problem then think about how systems with lifetime registrations are utterly unsustainable in the long-term.

4D is a no-brainer long-term but buying right now is probably buying a local top. Floor was 1 ETH only a few weeks ago. So far they pump on a cyclical 2 month cycle.
3Ls are crazy undervalued rn. Aim above the floor for common words and acronyms, don't settle for dogshit like "zmw"
and unfud yourself about the $640/yr thing, you will regret it forever if you paper a good 3L because you're scared of renewal fees.
>>51377558
you pick it up as is. caveat emptor
you can use this to your advantage with 3 char names. People are much more likely to paperhand good 3Ls when they only have a few weeks left to renew (assuming they are not truly enlightened on 3Ls or a whale)
dont just blindly "buy now", place WETH bids and you can sometimes get sick names for -80% off the asking price. try to get in the mind of the seller and give them realistic offers.

Here's some advice for you - drop the 'muh singles' narrative most of them are not popular. The main selling point is that they are 'one character' not that they are emojis.

It depends on what you think a good deal is. If you think singles are going to a 30 ETH floor, then buying the 0.69 floor right now is an amazing deal. For me I minted about 10 of my dozen singles, so it's all profit for me.

I don’t really get the “golden” singles stuff, but whatever. They all basically look the same to me. I get not building your identity around a black single if you’re a white guy, but I think most singles outside of the “blind guy walking” or “guy in wheelchair” singles are going to rocket.

And then those other ones will as well just by association. People are going to want a 1 character in a limited collection, just like punks and stupid apes.

people like digits, thats established. 5D's are the first tier that have $5 renew fees, very normie friendly. normies basically can choose between a domain with no value for their forever ens, like jake84.eth, or they can get a 5digit which they can 100% resell for more whenever they're done with it. ive been accumulating 5D palindromes for months, and will continue to do so. 5D pali = king of the normies and ez 10 year hold for $5/yr

classic gamer tags like grubby, spraggy, angrytestie make the best identities. unique, clear, distinct, easy to use. professionals will use some variation of Firstname + initial or vice versa, like Ahopkins.eth, Fallon.eth, a number sub like m0rgan.eth, hack3r.eth

they both make terrible identities, but its at least POSSIBLE with numbers, due to being orally conveyable(6529 proved this)

but numbers have the benefit of being clear, unique, distinct, and easily conveyable(the utility aspect of ENS) to attach to an already established identity like in the screenshot

his identity is skrelli, if you ever want to look at his wallet, his decentralized website, or send him money, it's all very simple and absolutely clear and unmistakable. some emojis have these properties but they're relatively rare.100% of 3-4-5digits have them

additionally they have the benefit of fungability and liquidity should he ever choose to exit his position at a fair value. anyone can use any number, they are universal. a male programmer is probably never going to use a female black teacher emoji as his ens(unless he's advertising, trying to offload it, as is common)

>>51383167
yes some emojis are visually appealing. but still not identities, poor utility value, not fungible, and the owners have to wait many months, if not years to exit at what they consider a fair price, similar to words or nft collectibles like rarepepes.
a handful of emojis are great for flex value and have incredible potential(like wizard single). but as a collection, the vast majority are quite trash and will never rival digit collections.

It's already hard enough to give pricing when you know the exact name, "meme name" could mean anything fren. What you do when you want to list a name with max exposure is open it up on ens.vision, list it on there and on Opensea, Looksrare and X2Y2 too. Make sure the expiration date and price actually matches and don't forget that if you make a change on one site you should make it on the others too. Pic related ens.vision will show you listings on most sites and the red circled tab will get you direct links to your name on other sites (Reservoir and Rarible not recommended desu). Can't guarantee a sell though.

damn sometimes I forget that there are people in ENS who don't know about ensvision
trying to make it in ENS without using ensvision is like trying to win a marathon after blowing your kneecaps off

Ens vision is what is going to make this market. It’s by far the most important site for ENS domains

While I am definitely pro-emoji and bullish on them in general, I think the emoji community are fucking retarded.

They’re busy minting 500 different derivatives of emojis right now instead of focusing on one or a few collections to moon the fuck out of. This is the way digits did it, and it worked out well for that faction.

If emojis don’t succeed it will be because of the moronic way its community is trying to make the market for them.

My business has somewhat regional branding. I did that on purpose for google searches. The name is not too uncommon.
