Chinese domain sales report.
Yesterday we broke the news of new Chinese regulatory changes; China’s government is getting ready to turn the country’s online presence into a large “white list.”
No longer satisfied with black-listing domains, the Chinese government plans to enforce the voluntary approval of TLDs other than .CN, one by one.
Soon, one would have to get the Chinese government’s seal of approval in order to operate in China.
Although the proposal hasn’t been turned into a law yet, there is little chance that this brain-child of “Communist Capitalism” will be altered substantially.
Will this be the tombstone on the Chinese domain market focusing on “Chips” and other liquid domains?
Popular domain investor, Mike Berkens seems to think so.
We’ve been witnessing some sizable domain portfolios being sold, and not just by the Chinese.
Today’s list of short domain sales in .CN and .COM contains several domain “Chips” sold by a “Ken O’Brien.” The name means very little in Pinyin, so he’s most likely of Irish background.

The volume of Chinese domain sales has definitely increased. We anticipate more of this activity as we’re moving into the 2nd quarter of 2016 – the Year of the Monkey business.
