Listed below are updates to the top 10 domain sales from a year ago, as ranked by DN Journal.
1. BTC.com for $1,000,000

Nice stuff , seems like the JTF.com could have been sold for much more
Agreed, that’s domainer pricing these days for JTF, not end user pricing.
Would like to hear from Domain Guardians who brokered the $1M BTC.com sale because they were tooting their own horn when this happened and if this was a lease and not a sale then they’ll need to wipe that egg off their face.
