.xyz
The .xyz domain is a generic top-level domain run by registry operator XYZ.COM LLC, founded by Daniel Negari. It launched in 2014 under ICANN’s new gTLD program as a short, flexible alternative to .com, marketed as ‘for every website, everywhere.’ Early ultra-low pricing and heavy registrar promotions rapidly boosted registration counts, pushing .xyz to the top tier of new gTLDs. Adoption jumped when Google’s parent Alphabet chose abc.xyz in 2015, cementing its association with tech and startups. Today it’s widely used by web3 projects, developers, and brands looking for modern, globally available names. The three letters don’t stand for anything specific, which is part of its appeal — it’s a blank canvas.
