今年几乎所有的交易都与域名投资者有关，其中一人就占了 40% 以上的交易量。
Slovenia’s .si country code domain has suddenly become popular with domain investors.

Some think the ccTLD could be used as short for “superintelligence”, an artificial intelligence term.
有人认为 ccTLD 可以用作“超级智能”（superintelligence）的缩写，这是一个人工智能术语。
While there has been talk about this for some time, a recent slate of sales suggests this idea is picking up steam… with domain investors.

I analyzed the 35 .si domains NameBio shows as sold from January through June 9 this year.

Only two domain names stand out as end user purchases:
只有两个域名被最终用户购买：
Recursive.si $20,000 – Recursive is an AI company that specifically mentions super intelligence on its website. Its main website is recursive.com.
Recursive.si 获得 20,000 美元奖金——Recursive 是一家人工智能公司，其网站上明确提及了超级智能。其主网站为 recursive.com。
Military.si $1,795 – The company behind the military supply store Militaria.pl acquired this domain.
Military.si 1,795 美元 – 军事用品商店 Militaria.pl 背后的公司收购了此域名。
Of the remaining domains, 12 point to Afternic landers and nine point to Spaceship landers.
在剩余的域名中，12 个指向 Afternic 着陆器，9 个指向太空飞船着陆器。
Reviewing Whois records, nine of this month’s 13 sales were to a single domain investor in China. That same investor bought two domains earlier this year, meaning one investor accounts for 43% of public sales this year.
通过查阅 Whois 记录，本月 13 笔域名交易中有 9 笔被卖给了中国同一位域名投资者。这位投资者今年早些时候还购买了两个域名，这意味着今年公开交易中，一位投资者就占了 43%。
Another five were purchased by a Singapore investor who uses the domain premiumdoms.io for an email address.

I count 16 buyers responsible for this year’s public domain sales.
我统计了一下，今年共有 16 位买家促成了公共领域的销售。
Are these buyers early? I’m not going to pass judgment on the future of .si, but I’ll note two things:
这些买家是早期买家吗？我不会对 .si 域名的未来妄下断言，但我想指出两点：
- All successful TLDs became successful because end users chose to use them. They made this decision on their own, and others copied them. Domain investors can’t will companies into using .si domains, or any TLD for that matter.
所有成功的顶级域名之所以成功，都是因为最终用户选择使用它们。这是用户自主做出的决定，其他人则纷纷效仿。域名投资者无法强迫公司使用 .si 域名，或者任何其他顶级域名。 - It’s interesting that some people on X keep promoting .si, saying it’s the new hot thing and not to miss out. If they really thought that, wouldn’t they be busy snapping up domains instead of telling other people about the opportunity? A TLD isn’t like cryptocurrency; touting it doesn’t make the TLD grow. Unless, of course, you want to sell out to other domain investors.
有趣的是，X 论坛上有些人一直在推广 .si 域名，说它是最新的热门域名，不容错过。如果他们真这么认为，难道不应该忙着抢注域名，而不是到处宣扬这个机会吗？顶级域名（TLD）和加密货币不一样，吹捧它并不会让域名数量增长。除非，你本来就想把域名卖给其他域名投资者。
