Indie makers and founders register so many domain names that are perfect for other projects. Why not put them in a marketplace vetted for quality, where other makers can find cheap options to start their own projects?

Do you verify domain ownership?

@pablo_hernandez10Â No, but I do verify that the person has some social proof of who they say they are. I don't think they have a ton of incentive to submit domains that they don't own that are on a marketplace.
So far, most people submit just a handful of domains so it doesn't seem super sketchy. I imagine I'll encounter fraudsters eventually, but worst case Shelved will just point to a safe marketplace link where people can buy the domain.

@pablo_hernandez10Â I'm only posting links to marketplace URLs on Afternic/Porkbun/Namecheap/etc, so if the domain sells before I update the site, they can't hijack the purchasing process through the domain itself and try to scam people.
