Could we see the largest public domain name sale of the year in less than a week? Lifestyle.com has a 2,000,000 GBP bid in a Sedo auction, and it shows that the reserve has been met. At today’s exchange rate, that bid is $2,436,600 USD. The auction was first noted yesterday by Logan Flatt:

The Great Domains monthly auction hosted by Sedo ended this afternoon. Bier.DE sold for 149,000 EUR, which is approximately $161,000 USD at today’s exchange rate. In addition to this sale, 5 other domain names sold for five figures each, with the $18,500 sale of KTG and the $15,000 sale of Louise.com also leading the pack. A total of 24 domain names were sold in this month’s auction.
Once the sale of Bier.DE closes, it will rank as the second largest .DE sale in the last 5 years, according to NameBio. Kaffee.DE sold for $237,474 in 2017. This sale will also rank as the second largest public ccTLD sale of the year, behind the sale of Free.co.uk, which sold for $205,000 last month (per DNJournal).
Sedo Sr. Broker Dave Evanson announced that he successfully brokered the sale of Plains.com for $115,000. The sale was announced by Dave this morning on Twitter:

Sedo hosted a 4 letter .com domain name auction this past week, and the auction concluded this afternoon. In total, 150 4L .com domain names were sold in the auction, and the results of the auction have been posted below. It looks like around $30,000 USD worth of sales transacted, but the figure is difficult to calculate since there are multiple currencies. The currency for most of the sales is EUR.
The auction concluded today, so I doubt any of these sales closed yet. Sedo will report the sales to DNJournal and NameBio once the domain names are purchased and are transferred to the new buyers.
Results from Sedo’s 4 letter .com domain auction, April 2020:
