If everyone had a personal domain name, at the pic of world population, the total cost of DNS would be $200’000’000’000, it is higher than the GDP of Hungary ! According to https://www.namebase.io/ the industry already weights half of that whilst the web is super centralized, what the freak
A guy told me that the one ripping us off is the TLD owner so I guess the TLD owner is ripping even more people renting .io domains
Handshake DNS has a cost but no one is ripped off since it is with a crypto that gets burned so everyone earns since burning -> deflation
$10/year is super expensive for the cost of linking few thousands of requests to an IP address. The point of my question was: who has obscene margins ?
So if it is the guys who owns the TLDs who rip everyone off, if a company bought a TLD and started to rent it at production price, it would finally enable domain names at like one cent or one dollar? (most websites have like 10 requests and they have a single IP, I don’t get why one cent would be impossible)
I see there may be some but it depends on the servers I think
