Btw, I highly doubt Nauru makes much money selling their ccTLD, they manage it directly on the island and each domain costs a whopping 500$/year.
Better examples: Tuvalu (.TV), Anguilla (.AI)
Both of these countries (anguilla is not independent though) only get a cut of the money from the domains; all the technical management is done by GoDaddy for .TV and Identity Digital for .AI. In my opinion, very sad.
.AI was run by a local guy in Anguilla (Vince Cate) utilizing the https://cocca.org.nz/ https://cocca.org.nz/ domain SaaS, but Identity Digital took over in late 2024.

Yeah, can't imagine anyone buying any of these domains. I mean yes, it's literally the exact word for "naked" in French, but nobody speaks French so there's definitely no chance they make any money
- shishcat 2mo ago"The most common translation for "naked" in French is nu (masculine) or nue (feminine)." NU is the country code for Niue. Not Nauru. Nauru is NR. NU is an interesting story, the control of the domain was granted in exchange for providing internet services to the island, and its operation was later transferred to the Swedish Internet Foundation. The islanders want the domain back
