Thanks Oliver. The link you have sent is a "MUST WATCH" ICANN Official discussion on the subject. .COM becoming "doubt"COM is now a hackneyed point. Does the same point extend to ".<place names taken up with National Pride>" ? ccTLDs used to help manage such concerns due to different classification as TLDs. A grey area is emerging. Your thoughts..

However, the lack of liquidity has been a challenge for domain owners. Tokenization could provide a solution to this liquidity issue. By tokenizing domain assets, owners can sell off interests in their domains, building liquidity from assets that would otherwise remain idle. Need advise on ICANN Remit pertaining to new crypto-themed top-level domains which could potentially increase the value and liquidity of domain assets. As a matter of fact, IDN can very well serve as a crypt of a tokenized domain name. Please advise.
