A domain investor has cashed in a big bet, selling the domain name HarrisWalz.com for $15,000. Domain owner Jeremy Greene Eche bought it for around $9 in 2020.
Eche, a New York City trademark lawyer, bought several domains around the time of the 2020 election, he told ABC Audio. He focused on candidates who were likely to run in the future. “So I just looked up every heartland governor and senator I could think of,” he said. “I got a bunch of midwestern politicians.” Eche also bought addresses that paired Harris’ name with Illinois Gov.
J.B. Pritzker and Pennsylvania Sen. John Fetterman. He tried to buy HarrisShapiro.com, a domain tied to Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro, but it had already been registered and purchased. “You just have to hope you hit the jackpot when you start buying those names,” he said.
Eche wasn’t aware of the buyer’s identity, he said. The buyer wanted to remain anonymous, according to Eche. He acknowledged that he’s already sitting on domains looking ahead to future elections. “I have a lot of Tim Walz domains because, like Harris was four years ago, Tim Walz now is an obvious candidate for eight years from now for the presidency.” By providing your information, you agree to our Terms of Use and our Privacy Policy.
