Through the domain name server Whois query, it is learned that the 3W.COM domain name was registered in May 2002 and has been around for more than 20 years. It is a classic short domain name with a long history. Public transaction records show that the most well-known change of ownership of domain name 3W.COM occurred in 2017. At that time, 3W.COM completed the delivery at a price of 280,000 US dollars, and changed owners twice within ten days, refreshing the transaction price of the domain name trading market at that time and shocking the industry.

After a lapse of 5 years, 3W.COM, a classic short domain name, has completed the transaction again. This time, the market price of 3 million US dollars has been nearly 10 times higher than that at that time! The value of the domain name 3W.COM is expected to continue to grow as the latest acquirer has clearly stated that it will aim at the potential web3 industry market.

In addition, a number of high-quality domain names with a long history have recently gained "value certification" from the trading market: the short domain name w3.com registered in July 2001 has reached a market price of $5 million; the price of the top-level domain name web3.com registered in November 1995 has exceeded 10 million US dollars; the current market price of the classic domain name www.com registered in November 1998 is also more than 10 million US dollars.

These high-quality domain names, like 3W.COM, have one thing in common, that is, they are literally similar to the current hot Web3, which can be said to reflect the characteristics of Web3, and to some extent are already a fully qualified sign, and we expect them to show a new look in the future with "Web3".
