We are happy to announce…

We have purchased www.iethereum.trade.

The original website url domain iEthereum.trade associated with the founding of iEthereum was registered on 10/09/2017. The information was good but the website always lacked organization and direction.

Some time in 2020/2021 the url domain registration www.iEthereum.trade had fallen victim to a lapsed registration.

With a domain authority score of 28 and with over 5000 backlinks, a domain flipper picked up the domain property.

The www.iethereum.trade website sat for almost two years for sale publicly.

Everybody visiting the website via large sites like CoinMarketCap, BeinCrypto, Crypto.com, etc would visit a “for sale domain,” effectively making the project look abandoned.

It has not been a good look for the iEthereum project.

We almost purchased the domain last year, but we decided to register a better url for our project. www.iethereum.org

It wasn’t until this year, after launching www.iethereum.org that we thought the purchase of the original iEthereum.trade website with direct organic traffic was a good business and brand decision to help the project move forward.

For those that had never heard of us, yet find iEthereum through other crypto index sites would find us naturally though their research and clicking links.

We are proud to say that www.iethereum.trade now directs to www.iethereum.org.

The story of iEthereum till now.

Presented to you in a storyboard format with visual representation, we would like to share screenshots of the original website from October 2017 until now.

Enjoy!

October 16, 2017— This is the beginning and highlights the Airdrop registration for a 99% distribution

December 30, 2017 — We see a little more of the Apple branding

January 24, 2018

June 06, 2019 - They added some fancy background constellations

September 24, 2020— This is about the time many shenanigans began to happen. We will be writing several articles regarding the confusion that took place.

August 13, 2021— The shenanigans continued and the original team added some substance to the site.

December 18, 2021— This is around the time frame that the url domain registration failed to renew

December 30, 2017— The previous owner began marketing the site for sale.

September 9, 2023— The new and improved www.iEthereum.org website.

Thank you. I hoped you enjoyed this walk down memory lane. We enjoy archiving iEthereum history.

iEther way, We see value!
