ICM Registry is also about to announce a premium portfolio sale to a European adult company totaling $630,000.
Any guesses?

My guess is, since I believe I read they settled their dispute, it starts with a Man and ends with a Win.

I know they wanted a hell of a lot of .XXX domains prior to their drama with ICM.

There aren't many adult companies today who could afford to spend that much. Maybe it will work to set up some sort of network.

You'd be surprised who can afford what. In the past 12 months there has been a lot of huge European companies formed due to the popularity of the European mobile market. A lot of people in the US still don't realize their Euro mobile traffic is worth a lot of money.

$630,000 for a shit load of premium .xxx domains. That is proof those premium .xxx domains do not fetch a high price.

To be fair 'shit load' was my take on it - It could be just a few....
