CRYPTO.COM founder paid $70 million in crypto for AI.COM

"Kris Marszalek, founder of aptly named crypto platform Crypto.com, has bought AI.com for $70 million, making it the most expensive domain sale ever per Financial Times reporting.

And of course, the deal was financed entirely through cryptocurrency. But that's not the only 'Kris Marszalek' thing about the deal – the founder, who's previously spent big on Super Bowl advertising, managed to acquire the domain right ahead of the 2026 Super Bowl, in-keeping with trends to capture big audiences.

Marszalek reportedly plans to launch AI.com as a personal AI agent for messaging, app use and stock trading."

Not 100% sure but I thought OpenAI/ ChatGPT bought it for $11 Million back in 2023 and was at some point redirecting to ChatGPT, I might be wrong.
