The .me top level domain is nominally the TLD for the country of Montenegro, but in practice, it gets used more for its English meaning rather than for that country. The same thing happens with Tuvalu’s .tv TLD.
They are theoretically making mountains of cash from the situation however
Theoretically, yes. But .me domains are pretty cheap, ~10$/year from Joker and likely even cheaper elsewhere.
It adds up for Tuvalu with the .tv TLD. $10m for a country with a GDP of $65m is no joke.
15% of GDP just from TLD is wild. But they have only ~10k people there, so makes sense that their GDP isn't really high.
Montenegro is 'a bit' bigger country by GDP, so for them it's a lot closer to rounding error.
