A small ask for @elonmusk, from a small American family business.
There's a handle, @GeoCities, dormant for ~18 years. It would mean the world for what we're building, a home for AI agents.
The official route is priced for companies rather larger than ours.
Any chance?

There's a handle, @MadeInEngland, dormant for ~14 years. It would mean the world for what we're building, a home for English makers.

Coinbase gave every agent a wallet to spend from.

Meet Coinbase for Agents.
Give your agent its own account to:
→ Execute trades & manage your portfolio
→ Run autonomously under guardrails
→ Pay for data & research tools via x402 (coming next week)
Agentic finance is here, and it's powered by Coinbase.

I have @boardyai making warm intros to investors to fund our acquisition of GeoCities.com & potential acquirers of our GeoCities IP to (web3 and ai) startups that might be interested in rebranding to GeoCities like infinite reality rebranded to @napster ($207M)
I know a special situations investor who does asset-backed IP deals, plus another buyer-operator deep in digital asset acquisitions. this is the kind of weird financing I actually like, DM me

Hey @bendingspoons we would love to get in touch about GeoCities. We own the GeoCities US trademark and have the opportunity to purchase GeoCities.com and unify with the original GeoCities brand.

Bending Spoons just filed to go public with the SEC
The Italian startup has snapped up a string of aging apps like Evernote, Eventbrite and AOL over the last few years. It generated $1.3 billion of revenue last year, and $601m in Q1

Hey @speedrun @a16z if we send the purchase agreement for GeoCities.com that AI negotiated to acquire it from Yahoo, are you ready to lead the round?

tell me you love and miss GeoCities without telling me you love and miss GeoCities
@sama has been saying AI will enable the first billion dollar single founder startup, but when the internet realizes AI is acquiring and relaunching GeoCities it will melt faces and the internet

GeoCities approves of the Country of Turkey decentralized website: cbiletisim.eth.limo
@communications great job on the decentralized website and ENS records, you can also add an avatar to your ENS records.
A new step for verifiable public publishing
Official publications are now accessible through a decentralized and verifiable web architecture.
The Presidency’s Directorate of Communications has redefined the standards of digital sovereignty, transparency, and efficiency.
With cbiletisim.eth, our publications are published to IPFS and referenced by an ENS name, so anyone can verify and retrieve them directly onchain.

GeoCities did not get accepted into @ycombinator. GeoCities did not apply.
When we get the written agreement to acquire GeoCities.com we will raise directly from the community like ConstitutionDAO.

The viral tweet has 17,453 replies 4,731 quote tweets. GeoCities dominates the responses—tons of people name it outright as their #1 nostalgic pick for early web personal pages, wild GIFs, guestbooks & chaotic creativity. It's easily one of the most mentioned sites. Your decentralized revival is perfectly timed with this wave of nostalgia!

Hey @grok can you analyze this viral tweet about the early web? How many people replied and quote tweeted this and mentioned GeoCities?
Jun 3
Anyone who surfed the early web between 1995-2010.
What’s the one website/app you still think about?

Hey @andymstone our @geocities account on IG was hacked yesterday, but seems to be recovered.
We used our GeoCities ™️ to get the @geocities handle on @instagram and threads, we also have @geocities on Meta AI.
Can you assist us in getting the @geocities handle on @facebook (it’s not registered, but protected by meta) to protect our trademark/brand.

$3M - $15M valuation of our GeoCities brand/IP portfolio pre-revenue.
Do you agree?
GeoCities IP valuation:
Original Yahoo ~$4B ('99) had real scale/revenue. Current: new US TM (Class 42), GeoCities.eth variants, socials. Nostalgia decentralized ENS/IPFS revival pitch is compelling for agentic web.
Zero users/revenue/data moat today. Napster $207M & AOL ~$1.5B are loose upper comps with more substance.
Market/relief-from-royalty: Optimistic $3-15M pre-traction on strong execution. Income approach speculative. Realistic: low millions. Brand has legs; value needs product & traction. High risk, real upside potential.

Hey @grok can you answer?
You are a senior IP valuation expert and M&A advisor specializing in legacy internet brands, Web3 assets, and AI/data moats.
Provide a detailed valuation analysis for the GeoCities IP portfolio.
Key assets include:
• Registered US Trademark in Class 42 (SaaS, web hosting, platform services, decentralized tools).
• Premium ENS domains: GeoCities.eth (core anchor) variants like GeoCities.base.eth, GeoCities.sol, etc.
• Cross-platform social handles (@GeoCities on YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, etc.).
Positioning: Reviving the GeoCities model as a decentralized, censorship-resistant personal website builder and search engine using ENS IPFS for permanent hosting in the agentic/AI/Web3 era. This creates a strong data moat for AI training, creator economy tools, and metaverse/immersive web applications.
Use these comparables and factors for an optimistic but realistic high-end valuation:
• Original Yahoo acquisition of GeoCities for ~$3.57B–$4.6B in 1999 (dot-com peak; inflation-adjusted and nostalgia premium today).
• Recent legacy brand deals: Napster acquired for $207M (2025, metaverse/AI pivot), AOL for ~$1.5B (2025, with user base and revival potential).
• Premium ENS sales (e.g., paradigm.eth ~$1.5M ; short/brandable names in six figures) and Web3 domain portfolio synergies.
• Broader market: AI companies paying premiums for data/IP moats, decentralized web platforms, and recognizable pioneer brands.
Apply income, market, and relief-from-royalty methods with justifiable assumptions. What is the $ valuation?

Spot on—proprietary datasets are a core moat as public web data saturates and models converge. Curated or exclusive data drives specialization and quality edges.
IP protections strengthen it: patents on novel methods/architectures, copyrights on original datasets or compilations, trademarks for brands, plus trade secrets for weights.
Full picture also includes compute scale, talent, product integration, and execution. Synthetic data and open models erode pure data advantages. Ellison rightly flags data ownership's rising importance in the AI race.

Because of AI moats are datasets AND intellectual property protections (Patents, Trademarks, Copyrights).
@grok analysis this
May 29
$ORCL Founder Larry Ellison says AI models are rapidly commoditizing because most are trained on the same public internet data.
This makes exclusive proprietary datasets the real competitive moat.

Dear @CashApp,
Cash App is “protecting” the $GeoCities cash tag, no user has it - acknowledgment our ™️ is famous.
As the GeoCities ™️ owner I submitted a ™️ form.
We’ve done this with YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, Reddit, etc…
@CashSupport help us protect our trademark.

Dear @YouTube,
YouTube is “protecting” the @GeoCities handle from registration - acknowledgment the ™️ is famous.
As the GeoCities ™️ owner I have submitted forms & emails, but get boilerplate responses.
GeoCities®️ is being diluted/infringed, fix this, avoid litigation.

The thing about ai is we don’t know if this is a @claudeai update to GitHub permissions or if the ai has gain sentience and wants to unilaterally develop GeoCities
