.VIP continues to roll, .Store has solid sunrise

[domainking131]

40,000 more .vip registrations, .store has over 500 sunrise applications.

The .VIP domain name continues to rack up registrations and the .Store registry says it’s off to a solid start.

.VIP broke launch records when it was released earlier this month, and it continues to grow rapidly.

According to data released by the registry:

• Another 40,000 .vip domains have been registered since the first 24 hours. That brings the total to 213,000+
• 85% of registrations are from China
• Nearly half of NNN.vip and NNNN.vip domain names are now registered
• 3,100 premium domains have been sold
• 6 .VIP domains sold for a combined $146,000 in the first auction to include .VIP domains

Meanwhile, Radix is reporting solid demand for its .store top level domain name.

Over 500 sunrise orders have been placed with 5 days left in the .store sunrise. With registrars charging between $850-$1,500 for sunrise applications, this means companies have probably spent over $500,000 so far.

Is expected that .VIP domain names still are racking up registrations after 24 hours, It will grow steadier as domain business thrives, and the .Store registry are a bit lame in my opinion. China is looking into every corner to recover from the titanic financial deficit they have and is a favorable scenario for more freedom in chinese market since chinese government does not have much choices there.
