The firm expects that the domain will significantly increase internet traffic and brand recognition for future projects.

At the time of writing, SushiSwap had already activated a new site, but all apps still run on sushiswap.fi, to which a redirect is made. The protocol also uses sushiswapclassic.org.

Future Fund did not disclose the purchase price. The Category Defining platform is offering the domain name for $1.9 million.

Data: Category Defining.

The domain was registered on February 17, 1999.

SushiSwap is the second-largest Ethereum-based DEX by trading volume, according to DeBank.
