Isn't the name of a bank usually trademarked? And often trademarked domains are much easier disputed? A bank could way easier take back the domain, no?

- tomhoward 8y agoProbably yes, but that commenter can still have their fun in the meantime.
- dazc 8y agoSince he mentioned it was a 4-letter domain, it could be the bank had a mark for a longer name but used the LLLL for customer convenience? The fact they failed to renew suggests it wasn't an acronym in common use - like HSBC, for example.
- godzillabrennus 8y agoYes. It was an abbreviation for the bank and it was a small regional bank in a rural area that eventually folded into another company.
