Jeremy Padawer Instagram – The day has finally come.
A day in the making 25 years!
Twitter.com will now point to X.com.
Likely, Boring, SpaceX, Neuralink, Tesla and other key Musk assets will over time.

25+ years ago, I had an option on the x.com domain name. Here’s a more detailed story, as I’ve reviewed my old notes.

A programmer named Rob Walker owned X.com domain. I had watched it for some time. Prior, Rob owned the X.com name with other programmers (I believe). 

In my prior recollection, the X.com name was owned by Eric Ziegast. And, I was almost correct – that was Z.com! Another 1 letter domain name that I attempted to purchase in the late 1990’s.

I was an early “domainer” buying, selling generic domain names. I owned act.com and sold it in 2000 to Symantec in one of the largest domain name transactions ever (at the time). I also owned names like Uninsured.com, Schmuck.com, Jeremy.com (my first name / I continue to own that), and PacificPalisades.com (my city / still own). I sold approximately 100 one word, generic domain names. I have so many fun stories of domain names bought, sold… and some tough ones too. 

I tried to keep it very much above board. I felt guilty about owning JohnKennedy.com, a name that was providing 1500 hits / day, and great Amazon affiliate revenue, so I sold it to a Louisiana Congressman. John Kennedy. A colorful man to this day.

It was like mining for gold. Digital, invisible gold.

But, what made it especially interesting was that these names had intrinsic value. You could add links / banners and achieve a CPM with advertisers. Act.com received thousands of visits daily. It was printing money.

X.com was a grail. I didn’t have the money yet. A year later and I could have run with it.

Rob sold the name to Elon. I’m assuming for $10,000.

I reached out to Elon.

Elon said, “No.”

And that was that! 

What a life. Hahahah. Entrepreneurship has been a rollercoaster.
