I just chatted with the .XYZ registry who told me that over 400,000 .XYZ domain names have been registered today on June 1st as of 1pm EST.
Yesterday Uniregistry announced $.01 .XYZ domain registrations, but today many other domain registrars joined in and are offering $.02 .XYZ domain registrations.
Of course the day is not over and almost 40,000 registrations were added in just the last hour.
Based on these numbers, there maybe more .XYZ domain names registered today than any other extension has gained in any one day period, but I’m not sure which TLD holds the record or what the one day registration record is.
As of yesterday according to ntldstats.com there were 2,956,739 .XYZ domain names registered.
It will be interesting to see where the day closes out.
