$10 Domain Sold to Musk for $174,000 a Year Later

On October 7, 2026, news circulated within the domain investment community that SpaceXSI.com had been sold for $174,000 via the Spaceship platform, with Elon Musk identified as the buyer.

The dramatic element of this deal lies in the timing. According to WHOIS records, the domain was registered on July 25, 2025, for a mere $10, with no public indication at the time that Musk intended to use the name. After lying dormant for 14 months, it suddenly became an asset yielding a return of over 17,000 times the initial investment.

The turning point came in early October 2026. Donald Trump signed an executive order requiring federal agencies to replace the term “Artificial Intelligence” with “Super Intelligence” in official communications. Musk immediately voiced his support on X, posting, “No more AI. SI. It’s better,” and—when asked if he would rename SpaceXAI to SpaceXSI—replied, “Yes, we will make that change.”

At that moment, SpaceXSI.com was still listed for sale on Spaceship. A few days later, the transfer of ownership was completed, and the registrar changed from Spaceship to MarkMonitor—a service provider specializing in managing brand domains for corporate clients.

As of now, neither Musk himself nor SpaceX has officially confirmed the transaction. However, the technical records of the domain transfer are complete, and the person who registered the domain for $10 a year ago has just pulled off a deal the likes of which most domain investors never encounter in a lifetime.
