Bosch, a hotel chain and Scholastic bought domain names on Sedo.
This week I discovered 13 end user domain name sales on Sedo’s sales list. There are more, of course, but I’m limited in my research by masked Whois records (#thanksGDPR) and domain names that are still in escrow.
Bosch picked up two domain names for its emergency elevator service business, a cryptocurrency/blockchain company bought a domain (what’s new?) and everyone’s favorite childhood book company bought a brand domain.
Let’s get to this week’s list and if you’re hungry for more, check out previous end user sales reports.
Caliva.com $15,000 – Marijuana company Caliva bought this domain and it now forwards to its GoCaliva.com domain.

A clue for bakt.com buyer
Andrew- as I stated on The Domains Sedo Sale List yesterday- it seems interesting that bakt.com sells for $10K last week and curiously bakkt is announced as the brand behind NYSE’s parent company (ICE) as a digital asset exchange a few days ago. The new brand appears to be a hand reg that was registered a month ago! So- if they did buy the name it is smart to forward to the new brand since it does not exactly pass the radio test.

Thanks everyone for pointing out the BAKKT connection.
“Bakkt” is a play on “backed,”
not a great brand name for a financial company.
backd would have been a better choice.

Andrew,
I just checked and it does appear that bakt.com does forward to bakkt.com- so it appears ICE paid $10K for the misspelling while hand regging the brand that they chose!
Smart since this helps clear up the “radio test” but still a challenging brand to say the least.
Mike
Thanks for following up!
