Crypto.com CEO Kris Marszalek has acquired the premium domain AI.com for approximately $70 million, completing what is believed to be one of the largest publicly disclosed domain-name transactions to date.
Marszalek confirmed that the purchase was finalized in April 2025 and revealed plans to launch a new consumer-focused artificial intelligence platform under the AI.com brand. The service is expected to officially debut during a Super Bowl LX commercial, signaling a major marketing push aimed at introducing the platform to a global audience.
According to company announcements, the platform will allow users to create personalized AI agents capable of handling digital tasks such as managing communications, automating workflows, and executing certain online actions across connected services. Additional subscription tiers are expected to provide expanded capabilities and advanced tools for users seeking greater automation features.
The acquisition reflects Marszalek’s broader strategy of investing in high-value digital brands, similar to earlier efforts that helped establish Crypto.com as a globally recognized platform. Industry observers note that securing the AI.com domain provides a powerful branding advantage as competition intensifies in the rapidly growing artificial intelligence sector.
