Question Is the IDN market really dead?

Or is there a group of people who are controlling and manipulating the market behind the scenes - refusing to do any trading in public and requiring NDA for nearly all deals?

Please share your thoughts. Or are you under NDA?

I think it's not so much of no buyers, but lack of sellers for prime names on the open market.

Is the DN market dead?

If so, we're more exposed and will suffer more.

Cotrary to the opinion of some there is most definitely buying and selling going on in particular market niches, but predominately behind the scenes.

Buyers certainly do not want to disclose prices.

And as a person who is predominantly a seller, from what I have gathered, what exactly do you gain long-term from agreeing to do private sales?

Of ASCII yes, I am a mainly a seller, of some IDN I am a major buyer. Not in the Alpha + class- but significant $. I ask the sellers not to disclose prices, that is my prerogative.

The few IDN you have seen me sell are those that do not match my criteria but are resalable.

I know I am not the only one.

Does it really matter? People are going to do what they feel is in there best interest period. If anyone is depending on another persons sales to make a profit , justify asking price , make a sale or even attract attention . I personally feel that model will not hold water .

also a post that there are sales going on but i cant talk about the price , the name the buyer ,the seller, his grandma or the color car he is driving . is really getting old if you don't want it talked about then do not speak of it serves no purpose IMO

:Steps off soap box and walks off stage

What you're doing is a good sign, it means that ASCIIs are overvalued and there are still bargains to be found for IDNs.
