πββοΈ Iβm Aron β startup founder, investor, and the owner of Symbolics.com, the first domain name ever registered on the Internet.
π
On March 15, 1985, before websites existed, before Google, before the idea of online business or digital identity, one name was recorded: Symbolics.com. It wasnβt just a domain. It was the starting point.
π Symbolics.com is Internet Genesis.
The first-ever entry in a digital asset ledger.
The original digital asset... the Mona Lisa of the Internet.
A true one-of-one.
Before Bitcoin. Before NFTs. Before e-commere and social media. Before we even knew what was coming.
Once you realize what this name represents... you won't forget it. Everything started right here.
π¦ It is the foundation layer of the digital age... the spark that ignited the global online explosion. Symbolics.com started the entire class of digital assets, commodities and online investments.
Tens of thousands visit each year, drawn not by whatβs here... but by what this name is.
π Today, Symbolics.com stands as a monument to what followed:
The rise of the web, the explosion of e-commerce, the reshaping of how the world communicates, creates, and connects.
Whatever happens next with Symbolics.com will be global news.
We've said enough, for now.
