On February 8th, the founder of the cryptocurrency trading platform Crypto.com shelled out a staggering $70 million to purchase the internet domain name 'AI.com', thus establishing a fresh benchmark for domain name transaction prices. Chris Marszalek, the co-founder and CEO of the platform, has ambitious plans to unveil AI.com in a high-profile Super Bowl advertisement. The website is set to provide users with personalized 'AI agent' services, enabling them to send messages, utilize applications, and even engage in stock trading via the platform. Marszalek revealed that he was presented with the opportunity to acquire the domain name last year and deemed it a prudent investment, considering that AI is poised to emerge as one of the most significant technological trends in the coming 10 to 20 years.
