Don't let speculation ruin another good thing

I see a slippery slope for broad adoption when even really uncommon names are getting bought up by bid snipers just to resell to the people who actually wanted them...

Comments

I have never been sniped on uncommon names above like 10 or 20, but experienced snipers around 0.4 to 5.
Anyone who truly wants a name and bids under 10 is being cheap and deserves to get sniped. It's kinda annoying but people who sniped me were still reasonable and didn't demand absurd prices, so I have nothing to complain about.

Keep in mind, there are a lot of us that try to scoop up names if they are going super cheap, just to make sure they end up in the proper hands.

As

pointed out, make sure to bid what you ultimately want to pay for the name, instead of hoping a 0.40 bid will survive.

Feel free to reach out on the discord server if you need any further help. Thanks!

Maybe the auction mechanism can add restriction for new entries in the last bidding blocks. So you have to make your interest know ~24h before te last bid can be placed, and have a fair bidding war, instead of some sniping your bid by 0.1hns in the last 10 minutes 🤬

This is part of the process. It is impossible for it to be pretty.
