Ask HN: Predictions for New GTLDs in 2026?

cyode Sunday, January 18, 2026

Applications to ICANN close this summer. "Reveal day", when they announce accepted names, will be later this year.

Apparently, the focus this round will be more localized domains for non-English alphabet extensions, but I'm sure some vanity/trendy names will get selected too.

Any predictions/commentary on what domains will be added?

My predictions: - .blockchain - .btc - .crypto - .ether (.eth I believe is reserved as Ethiopia's 3-letter code) - .genai - .llm - .model - .quantum - .vibe
