fakenews.com changed hands for $65,000 on NameJet/ROTD NamesCon Auction in March 2018. The name pairs “fake” with “news” in 8 characters, which keeps it readable at a glance. That is 14.4× the median .com sale in our records ($4,500), putting it in the top 4% of .com transactions since 2023. The .com cohort we track since 2023 now holds 6,735 sales, a median of $4,500 and a top decile above $22,473. No earlier sale of this exact name appears in our records, so this is its first tracked transaction. Closest .com comparables in the same price band include marciniak.com ($65,000) and theai.com ($65,000).
