Watch Andrew’s Keynote at NamesCon 2024!

I have often written about Ron Jackson the founder of DNJournal and one of the most respected, longest standing OG’s in the domain name industry. It was such a privilege to have Ron host my Keynote at NamesCon in June. I discussed my philosophy on collaboration, the Grateful Dead, my Wall St training, and how it all has influenced my career as a founder, entrepreneur, and most of all, my approach and track record facilitating $625m+ of domain name asset transactions, including many of the most significant of all time. The link to the keynote is here https://lnkd.in/en92WFSG, I hope you enjoy it and take something positive away too. Speaking of Ron, I figured I would re-share the cover story for DNJ that he did on me last month, https://lnkd.in/e2j8XwuP. Last week, I celebrated the 2nd anniversary of Hilco Digital Assets and our accomplishments to date in this post. I have put the link again below, in what is only the start for HDA https://lnkd.in/e4zAMbGS

When Atoms Collide

One of the major initiatives early on for HDA was our lead investment in Atom.com. Part of this decision was the creation of an ultra-premium marketplace within Atom, built for one-word .com domain names to be negotiated by HDA. This was launched late fall 2023 and it is going very well. Interest has been steady, we have completed many 6- 7 figure domain sales, and created a new avenue of liquidity and eyeballs for the most valuable domain names. When we began this initiative, I was optimistically hopeful and now I am confident in its value to brands, founders, investors, and domain name owners alike.
