10-Year-Old Buys AI.com for $100, Sells for Rs 600 Crore 30 Years Later

• Malaysian tech founder Arsyan Ismail bought the AI.com domain for $100 (approx. Rs 300) in 1993 when he was 10 years old.
• He sold the domain for $70 million (approx. Rs 600 crore) to Chris Marszalek, CEO of Crypto.com, in April 2025.
• The deal, paid entirely in cryptocurrency, is one of the largest publicly disclosed domain sales in history.
• Ismail, active in Malaysian tech, owned the domain because it matched his surname, not foreseeing AI's future importance.
• AI.com will function as an advanced AI system, 'Agentic AI', capable of automated tasks without human input.
