Experts do not recommend registering domains in .XXX for now.

The main reason experts currently advise against registering .XXX domains is the lack of clear trademark protection rules. Trademark owners expect ICM Registry to disclose its comprehensive anti-cybersquatting measures before deciding whether to register a domain.

During the Sunrise period, domain registration prices are around $300, but experts do not rule out that prices will reach six figures for owners of large brands.

The domain administrator, ICM Registry, plans to introduce some stricter mechanisms for protecting rights to new TLDs, even for those trademarks that will be registered after the start of open registration in .XXX.

An analysis of domain name disputes shows that most cases involve obvious variations of well-known trademarks. ICM Registry plans to launch an expedited procedure for resolving such domain name disputes. This will involve a panel of independent experts who will render decisions within 48 hours of receiving the claim. This action will result in the immediate termination of domain name use permissions, but will not prejudice the right of either party to pursue dispute resolution through other mechanisms.

It's still unknown how much the domain dispute will cost applicants. However, filing and reviewing a .ХХХ application will likely be less expensive than filing a UDRP application, which can cost up to $1,500 per domain name.

Furthermore, ICM plans to permanently block applications from companies found guilty of cyberpiracy, specifically those that "have repeatedly engaged in fraudulent registration practices." Violators will not only lose their .XXX domains but will also be unable to register any other names.

Therefore, experts believe that cybersquatting in .XXX will be less attractive than in .COM.
