We have just entered the fourth quarter for 2019 but the total number of reported domains sold have already surpassed the full year numbers of 2017 and 2018. The total sales volume from last year is only $6 million behind. Looking at the last 6 months of domain sales, 2019 should surpass that without a problem.
