The First Domain Name Ever Registered (In 1985) Changes Hands For the First Time With XF.com Investments Acquiring the Historic Domain
Symbolics.com, the first domain name ever registered, has changed hands for the first time since it’s original registration on
March 15, 1985.
Missouri-based
XF.com Investments purchased the historic Internet address from the
Symbolics company for an undisclosed price. Symbolics sold the domain even though the company is still in operation nearly 25 years after they made history by registering the name.
