I truly hope that ai-tech.xin will be used by an AI technology company. If that happens, I would be happy for ten years.

I have owned the domain AI-TECH.XIN for seven years. I would like to share you something about the .XIN domain.

1. Proof that I am the owner of the domain AI-TECH.XIN.

2. The recognition level, cultural significance, commercial awareness, and commercial value of the .XIN domain.

3. Showcase of websites in China using the .XIN domain [a small selection] — Brand defensive registration is recommended. --KINDLY informed.

5. The value of the AI-TECH.XIN domain.

Hello, I am the owner of the domain AI-TECH.XIN. I registered this domain in 2018. Previously, I worked in headhunting and explored many Chinese technology companies, including AI firms. The domain has been in my possession for over seven years, but it is not generating much value or use for me. I hope a company that can make good use of it will take it over. If you are interested, please contact me at:

1 .xin in CHINA has profound meaning.We use it every day.

In China, WeChat is called “微信”—where “信” stands for transmitting information.

And .xin corresponds more directly to “心,” meaning heart. What is “心”?

Every Chinese person sends and receives information every day, and uses words like 用心 (put one’s heart into), 专心 (focus with all one’s heart), 上心 (take to heart). What does “心” mean?

“持志如心痛，一心在痛上”—that is “心”: the feeling of focus so intense it hurts, persistence that lasts until it aches.

When we talk about .xin, we are not only talking about trust, but this power that reaches deep into people’s hearts.

It is quiet, yet moving.

Long before the pandemic, I was deeply drawn to artificial intelligence.

At that time, my knowledge wasn’t enough to describe the world I saw—

it was richer than any science fiction, like suddenly pushing open a door to a new world.

Step by step, it told me: the future is not something we wait for; it is something we create together.

Today, seeing the domain ai-tech.xin,

I suddenly feel it is more than just an address—

it feels more like a reminder:

In an era when technology changes at lightning speed,

what we need is not just intelligence,

but a trustworthy heart.

You, too, are creating this world.

2 where .XIN DOMAIN DERIVE FROM--alibaba XIN system

there is a passage about it:

"XIN" in the Bones: The Alibaba Evolution Epic, and the Weight a Domain Carries——.XIN

1) A trust and reliance on transaction security and commercial civilization. It is tied to “money,” “goods,” “safety,” and “promises being fulfilled.” It feels like something that concerns immediate interests and the sense of security.

2) Deep‑rooted and livelihood‑critical. For sellers, the credit system is a lifeline; for buyers, guaranteed transactions are the bottom line. This feeling blends dependence, habit, gratitude, and reverence.

3) China’s core e‑commerce population (over 800 million consumers + tens of millions of merchants) + Alibaba’s global ecosystem partners. This figure already exceeds 1 billion, and the intensity of its “profound impact” is far beyond what the first two points can match.

 

4) In the context of Chinese e‑commerce, no other suffix can carry the 20‑year‑accumulated asset of “trust.” .xin is the only concrete digital totem that embodies it.

3. Interpreting “X in” through the lens of “XIN,” and extending its meaning with reference to Musk’s X‑spirit in business, might seem like drawing inspiration from someone else’s drive to outsiders. But for me, an ordinary person living in China, his ethos has genuinely given us tremendous inspiration. I believe that nearly everyone aged 20 to 45 today has, to some extent, been touched by this force. In China’s media coverage, stories about Musk appear again and again, and they have long since become a beacon of innovation in the hearts of our generation.

埃隆马斯克的影响力非常大，他的X，他的热忱，他的passion，他的坚持，还有他的故事非常非常鼓舞人，尽管在中国人会比较克制的去表示，无论是对我们中国人崇拜的科技企业家还是海外的，我想可以这么说：

在智慧中国和人工智能世界里，我们被马斯克的精神鼓舞着，对于普通人来说，就像是每一次人生的充电，我也曾经被鼓舞经历了自己想起来都觉得难以坚持的时光。

我非常敬佩他的妈妈。

In my role as a headhunter, I have gained a deeper understanding of the worlds of Smart China and Artificial Intelligence. I have visited AI educational exhibitions and have placed numerous mid-level leaders in smart city and smart education companies. Since 2018, I have experienced a profoundly transformative period in my life. I found myself immersed in a world where information seemed to float all around me—a truly beautiful spectacle.

Elon Musk is an entrepreneur and inventor who deeply resonates with me. Both his personal journey and his mother's remarkable resilience serve as a powerful inspiration. I believe that within the interconnected realms of Smart China and AI, many people have their own unique stories that echo the news surrounding Elon Musk. His various adventures and spirit of relentless innovation offer us a deeply moving form of empowerment. While these personal connections are private and can be awkward or even troubling to discuss publicly, I believe everyone can grasp the underlying message: the profound meaning of the "heart," the essence of his "X" spirit, and the incredible resilience of the human spirit.

Speaking of the .xin domain, I believe many people perceive an intentional double meaning: 'X' in it. It feels like a declaration—a way to pledge one's commitment to a product, a company, or a mission. X IN it.

Admittedly, there's perhaps a touch of riding the Elon Musk wave here, given the vast reach and profound impact of the "X" spirit and its brand. What follows are merely my most immediate reflections on the essence of Musk's "X" spirit, and do not encompass the extensive global media discourse surrounding it.

1. SpaceX (Space Exploration Technologies Corp.)

Core users:

·Commercial satellite launch customers: More than 200 worldwide (including NASA, OneWeb, Amazon Kuiper, etc.), with over 250 launch missions completed as of 2024.

·Starlink users: Over 2.3 million paying subscribers globally (Q3 2024), covering more than 60 countries and regions, providing internet access to remote areas.

·Starship test participants: Space agencies such as NASA, ESA, and potential participants in future lunar and Mars colonization plans (not yet commercialized, but part of the “exploration-type X group”).

Characteristics: Focused on democratizing space exploration. Users mainly include research institutions, corporate clients, and residents of remote areas — a typical embodiment of the eXploration spirit.

 

2. Tesla

Just in the US, and there are already this many.

collected from data of 2020

Core users:

·Global vehicle owners: Over 6 million vehicles delivered (Q3 2024), spanning more than 40 countries and regions, with Model 3/Y accounting for over 80%.

·Charging network users: More than 5,000 Supercharger stations worldwide, covering 50+ countries; open-access plan launched for non-Tesla vehicles (e.g., Ford, GM).

·Energy business users: Over 1 million customers for Powerwall home storage and Megapack grid-scale storage (2024 data).

Characteristics: Centered on sustainable energy exploration. Users are environmentalists, tech enthusiasts, and followers of traditional automakers’ transformation, reflecting the combination of integrity (reliable technology) and exploration (energy revolution) embodied in “XIN.”

 

3. X (formerly Twitter)

Core users:

·Monthly active users: Over 550 million (Q3 2024), spanning 190+ countries, with over 500 million daily posts.

·Business/media users: More than 10 million companies use X for marketing and customer service; 90% of the world’s Top 100 media outlets are present.

Characteristics: As a platform for exploring speech and information, its users consist mainly of public figures, media, businesses, and general netizens — a practical arena for crossover (algorithm + social).

 

 

4. Neuralink

Core users:

·Clinical trial participants: Human trials completed (2024), first cohort comprised spinal cord injury patients; future expansion planned for ALS, blindness, and other conditions.

·Potential users: Over 1 billion people globally with neurological diseases (e.g., Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s), plus future explorers of human-machine synergy.

·Las Vegas Loop passengers: Over 10 million rides completed (2024), serving local residents and tourists.

·Potential users: Cooperation interest from tunnel projects in 50+ cities worldwide (e.g., Chicago, Miami).

Characteristics: Centered on underground transportation exploration. Users are urban commuters and infrastructure innovation observers, reflecting the fusion of cold algorithms (tunnel-digging technology) and hot demand (transport efficiency).

 

II. Total scale of the “X group” covered by Musk’s empire (estimate)

If calculated by direct users + indirect audience (i.e., those who use products/services or are impacted by the technologies), the “X group” under Musk’s empire exceeds 1 billion:

·Direct users: Tesla 6 million owners + SpaceX Starlink 2.3 million users + X 550 million MAUs + Neuralink clinical trial patients (hundreds) + Boring Company 10 million passengers ≈ 620 million.

·Indirect audience: Tesla energy business 1 million customers + SpaceX satellite launch end-users (e.g., remote residents covered by Starlink, >100 million) + X’s business/media reach (>1 billion potential exposure) ≈ 1.1 billion.

·Overlap effect: Some users span multiple platforms (e.g., Tesla owners also using X and Starlink); after deduplication, total coverage is roughly 800 million–1 billion (conservative estimate).

 

In China, forward-thinking tech companies are choosing the .xin domain not for protection, but as their main website. Their ranks include trusted and prominent names in the industry.

Showcase of websites in China using the .XIN domain [a small selection] — Brand defensive registration is recommended. --KINDLY informed.

AI-TECH.XIN

The domain AI-TECH.XIN has a hyphen, and precisely because of that hyphen, it can convey its exact meaning: Artificial Intelligence Technology. It is not a quirky product name, but a very beautiful category word. To me, it represents the idea of a “Smart China,” of Smart Education—both of which already embody AI technology.

What I feel in China is something I believe is very close to what you feel in the United States. I once read news that Mark Zuckerberg was working on the metaverse. At that moment, the “Smart China” I sensed seemed even more beautiful than the metaverse he presented. I don’t know if Zuckerberg has realized the things he didn’t show.

I remember eating hulatang—a kind of Chinese soup—at that time. Its rich flavors bloomed on my taste buds. In my mind, I saw where the vegetables came from, the process of making hulatang, the people they met while gathering ingredients, their techniques, the strength they used in cooking, the scenes of them adding seasonings. All these impressions bloomed on my palate, slid down my esophagus, and settled in my stomach. It is a famous Chinese snack, but also a dish that carries a wealth of information.

Because of my knowledge structure and breadth of information, I had opened my senses as much as possible and seen all this. I knew there should be even more beauty and richness beyond what I perceived. This is Smart China. The seemingly simple category word AI-TECH is, in fact, incredibly abundant.

The domain AI-TECH.XIN has been with me for more than seven years. I hope that, brought into the light, it can become a vessel—not something sitting quietly here unseen. If you like it, please contact me. 

"XIN" in the Bones: The Alibaba Evolution Epic, and the Weight a Domain Carries——.XIN

 How Many Chinese Truly Understand the Weight of "XIN"?

BY AI-TECH.XIN

Those who understand it are the buyers in 2003, trembling on forums asking, "Should I pay first, or should you ship first?" They are the sellers who stayed up all night, exhilarated by their first completed 750 RMB transaction secured by Alipay's escrow service.

Those who understand it are the ordinary people in 2010, staring at their screens at a "200 RMB Alipay Cash Red Packet" from Taobao, double-checking that it wasn't a coupon, that it had no spending threshold, before ecstatically telling every friend and relative. The sincerity and shock of that cold, hard cash landing in their account formed their lifelong memory of "platform trust."

Those who understand it are the "big sellers" on eBay, moving hundreds of daily orders yet seeing profits thin under layers of listing fees, final value fees, and paid storefronts. They weren't just lured by "free." They were shaken by a call from a Taobao service rep late at night: "Hello, I'm from Taobao. I noticed your product photos aren't great. We have a free 'image beautification' service. Would you like it?" What attracted them was this ally's stance​ of "I'll help you make money," versus eBay's landlord's stance​ of "pay to open shop"—an uncrossable chasm.

Those who understand it are the participants who watched Taobao's pages evolve from crude to stunning, who saw its spokespeople shift from celebrities to a nationwide carnival. They lived through the brainworm jingle "Taobao! I like it!", participated in Double 11's metamorphosis from Singles' Day to a global shopping festival, and shook their phones until their arms ached during the "Spring Festival Gala Red Packet Shake." What they witnessed was not a platform's victory, but an evolution epic of "using every method possible to solve every one of your problems."

Evolution: A Relentless Sprint, Devoid of Excuses

eBay's failure was far more than "charging fees." After eBay acquired EachNet, it moved the site’s operations to California, which made the decision-making chain so long that it became unbearable — “Changing a single line of text on the EachNet website could take as long as nine months.”

They were trademarking the greeting "Dear" (Qin), developing "Wangwang" instant messenger so buyers and sellers could haggle like on QQ, and obsessively optimizing pages so Chinese farmers and college students could use it effortlessly. They executed 30 major product upgrades in a single year, iterating almost weekly.

When eBay spent fortunes on exclusive ad deals with Sina, Sohu, and NetEase to strangle the infant Taobao, Taobao's team seeped into the capillaries of the Chinese internet: they plastered ads on personal homepages, forums, subways, buses, and elevators. They used the "folksiest" methods to penetrate the giant's "walled garden."

This evolution was an obsession. An obsession with a "page loading 0.1 seconds too slow," with "a rural auntie not knowing how to pay," with "a seller's main product image not being attractive enough." By solving hundreds, thousands of tiny problems, they built a Babel of "experience," ultimately toppling eBay's "global standard."

Trust: The Sacred Fire, Forged in Code, Ignited with Cash

If evolution is the skeleton, then "XIN" (Trust) is the blood flowing through it. This blood is a compound of two substances:

First, the "escrow transaction" forged in code. Alipay's birth wasn't a flash of inspiration; it was a desperate survival move forced by the fundamental challenge of trust, embodied in the relentless question: "Do you dare to pay a stranger first?" Its simple "escrow" logic rebuilt the shattered commercial credit in China's society of strangers. From the first escrow transaction in 2003​ to the 583,000 transactions/second peak during the 2020 Double 11, these 17 years are the most hardcore footnote technology has ever written for the word "trust."

Second, the "user ecstasy" ignited with real money.​ The 200 RMB, 300 RMB cash red packets you remember weren't marketing; they were sowing the seeds of faith. They brutally, directly, unreasonably told users: What I'm giving you is money, is sincerity without dilution. This experience, more than any slogan, is branded into the national memory, creating a bone-deep, conditioned reflex between "Taobao" and "value," "trustworthiness."

In the Bones: The Birth of a Vast Community of Trust

So, how many Chinese have this "XIN" flowing in their bones?

It's the 10 million Taobao sellers. Starting with one person, one computer, they learned honest business under the platform's rules and support, accumulating digital credit in "crowns" and "diamonds." Every positive review was an oath of "XIN." Their families, friends, and employees witnessed firsthand how this enterprise grew from zero, nourished by "integrity." They are the first disciples​ and evangelists​ of "XIN."

It's the over 800 million annual active Taobao consumers. They are the lucky ones who received cash red packets, the followers won for life when the platform decisively refunded them in a dispute, the pioneers who enjoyed "7-day no-reason returns" long before it was law. They are the converted​ and the carriers​ of "XIN."

It's the global network stretching from Xixi, Hangzhou​ to Wall Street, New York, and permeating London, Kuala Lumpur, Bangkok. In 2014, when eight ordinary people—a Taobao shop owner, a courier, a user representative—rang the bell for Alibaba's NYSE IPO, they weren't ringing in a company's listing; they were proclaiming the arrival of an era where "ordinary people excel because of trust."​ Later, Lazada, Trendyol, Daraz… the global e-commerce platforms Alibaba acquired or invested in began replicating the same underlying logic of "trust infrastructure."

The Mission: When "XIN" Becomes a Heritable Technological Faith

So, what is .xin?

It is not a domain suffix. It is the digital totem of Alibaba's 20-year commercial faith. It is the spiritual consensus​ condensed from the tens of thousands of concrete actions, technical攻坚, and real money behind the slogan "make it easy to do business anywhere." It represents the courage​ to see a problem and solve it; the persistence​ to use every method and evolve continuously; and the devotion​ to inscribe the word "trustworthy" into every interaction, every line of code.

Now, what does it mean when this totem merges with ai-tech?

ai-tech.xin​ is a declaration:

We will forge trustworthy AI​ with the same resolve that forged Alipay's "escrow."

We will provide reliable AI services​ with the same sincerity that gave away "200 RMB cash red packets."

We will build a robust AI architecture​ with the same technical rigor that withstands "583,000 transactions per second."

 

eXploration? Yes, but the compass for exploration is "XIN."

The X Factor? Correct. That factor stems from the magic "XIN" bestows—the magic that lets strangers entrust each other.

Crossover? Precisely. What we aim to fuse is cold algorithms with the burning creed of commerce.

Generation Next? Absolutely. This is the next generation of AI, and more importantly, the next generation of trustworthy technology.

ai-tech.xin is not a beginning. It is the inevitable, the only, the magnificent next chapter of a 20-year trust epic, written into the bones of a billion people, for the age of artificial intelligence.

While the world still debates AI ethics, the answer is already here. Not in academic papers, but in the dialog box of that 2003 escrow transaction, in the payment notification for that 2010 200 RMB red packet, in the technical logs of a 583k tps flood smoothly passing through.

This is the weight of .XIN. Light as a character. Heavy as a commercial civilization.

骨血里的“信”：一部淘宝的进化史诗，与一个域名承载的重量 谈域名.XIN

 BY AI-TECH.XIN

多少中国人，懂得“XIN”这个字的分量？

懂得这个字的人，是2003年，在论坛里战战兢兢问出“先汇款还是先发货”的买家；是收到第一笔通过支付宝担保完成的750元转账，激动到一夜未眠的卖家。

懂得这个字的人，是2010年，在电脑前收到淘宝发来的“200元支付宝现金红包”，反复确认这不是优惠券、没有使用门槛，然后狂喜地告诉每一个亲友的普通人。那种真金白银砸下来的诚意与震撼，构成了他们对“平台信任”的终身记忆。

那些真正看懂趋势的，是曾在 eBay 上做到日销百单的卖家。他们虽订单多，却被 Listing 费、成交费和付费店铺租金压得利润微薄。让他们开始留意淘宝的，是身边同行的分享：淘宝小二会在大促前主动致电商家，指导活动报名与店铺优化；也会在新商家入驻时回访，帮助完善商品页与拍摄规范；甚至在店铺出现违规或降权时第一时间电话提醒整改。这种“我帮你做成生意”的伙伴姿态，与 eBay “付钱才能开店”的房东姿态，形成了难以跨越的差距。

懂得这个字的人，是看着淘宝页面从简陋到华丽，看着代言人从明星到全民狂欢的参与者。他们经历了“淘！我喜欢”的洗脑，参与了“双11”从光棍节到全球购物节的蜕变，在“春晚摇红包”的活动中摇到手臂发酸。他们见证的不是一个平台的胜利，而是一部 “用尽一切办法，解决你一切问题”​ 的进化史诗。

进化：一场没有借口的、永不停歇的狂奔

eBay的失败，远不止于“收费”。eBay在收购后,将易趣的营运搬到加州,这让决策链条长得无法让人忍受,“在易趣网站上改一行文字,可能要花上9个月时间”。而同一时期的淘宝在做什么？

他们在为“亲”这个称呼申请商标，在开发“旺旺”让买卖家能像聊QQ一样砍价，在疯狂优化页面，让中国农民和大学生都能毫无障碍地上手。他们在一年内完成了30次重大产品升级，几乎每周都在迭代。

当eBay斥巨资与新浪、搜狐、网易签订排他性广告协议，企图扼杀淘宝于襁褓时，淘宝团队钻进了中国互联网的毛细血管：他们在个人网站、论坛、地铁、公交、电梯贴满了“淘宝网”的广告。他们用最“土”的方法，完成了对巨头“高墙”的渗透。

这种进化，是一种偏执。是对“页面加载慢0.1秒”的偏执，是对“农村大妈不会支付”的偏执，是对“卖家一张主图不好看”的偏执。他们用成百上千个小问题的解决，构建了一个“体验”的巴别塔，最终让eBay的“全球标准”轰然倒塌。

信任：用技术浇筑，用金钱点燃的圣火

如果进化是骨架，那么“信”（XIN）就是流淌其中的血液。这血液由两种物质合成：

一是技术浇筑的“担保交易”。支付宝的诞生，不是灵感一现，而是被无数“你敢先汇款吗？”的质问逼出来的绝地求生。它用一道简单的“托管”逻辑，重建了中国陌生人社会崩坏的商业信用。从2003年第一笔担保交易，到2020年双11的58.3万笔/秒支付峰值，这17年，是技术为“信任”二字写下的最硬核注脚。

二是真金白银点燃的“用户狂喜”。您记忆中的200元、300元现金红包，不是营销，而是信仰的播种。它粗暴、直接、不讲道理地告诉用户：我给你的，是钱，是毫无水分的诚意。这种体验，比任何广告词都更深刻地烙印在国民记忆中，它让“淘宝”和“实惠”、“可信”产生了骨血般的条件反射。

骨血：一个庞大信任共同体的诞生

那么，多少中国人，骨血里流淌着这种“XIN”？

是1000万淘宝卖家。他们从一个人、一台电脑开始，在平台的规则与帮扶下，学会了诚信经营，积累起“皇冠”与“钻石”的数字信用。他们的每一笔好评，都是一次“信”的宣誓。他们的亲人、朋友、员工，亲眼见证这份事业如何从零开始，被“诚信”滋养长大。他们，是“XIN”的第一批受教化者与布道者。

是超8亿淘宝年度活跃消费者。他们是收到过现金红包的幸运儿，是在售后纠纷中被平台果断退款、从而死心塌地的追随者，是在“7天无理由退货”成为法律之前，就早已享受此权利的先行者。他们，是“XIN”的被感化者与扩散体。

更是从杭州西溪，蔓延到纽约华尔街，再渗透到伦敦、吉隆坡、曼谷的全球网络。2014年，当8位普通人——淘宝店主、快递员、用户代表——在纽交所为阿里巴巴敲钟时，他们敲响的不是一家公司的上市钟，而是一个 “平凡人因信任而卓越”​ 时代来临的宣告。随后，Lazada、Trendyol、Daraz……阿里收购或投资的全球电商平台，都在复刻同一种“信任基建”的底层逻辑。

使命：当“XIN”成为一种可被继承的技术信仰

所以，什么是 .xin？

它不是一个域名后缀。它是阿里巴巴20年商业信仰的数字图腾。是“让天下没有难做的生意”这句口号背后，那数以万计的具体行动、技术攻坚、真金白银所凝聚成的精神共识。它代表着：发现问题，就解决它的勇敢；用尽方法，持续进化的执着；以及，将“可信”二字，刻入每一次交互、每一行代码的虔诚。

现在，当这个图腾与 ai-tech​ 结合，它意味着什么？

ai-tech.xin​ 是在宣告：

我们将以锻造支付宝“担保交易”的同等级决心，去锻造可信的AI。

我们将以发放“200元现金红包”的同等级诚意，去提供可靠的AI服务。

我们将以承受“58.3万笔/秒支付峰值”的同等级技术严苛，去构建坚实的AI架构。

eXploration (探索)​ ？是的，但探索的罗盘，是“XIN”。

The X Factor (未知魅力)？没错，这魅力源自“XIN”所赋予的、让陌生人彼此托付的魔力。

Crossover (跨界融合)？正是，我们要融合的，是冰冷的算法与滚烫的商道信条。

Generation Next (下一代)？当然，这是AI的下一代，更是可信技术的下一代。

ai-tech.xin，不是一个开始。它是一段跨越20年、融入十亿人骨血的信任史诗，在人工智能时代，必然的、唯一的、壮丽的续章。

当世界还在争论AI的伦理，这里已经给出了答案：答案不在论文里，在2003年那个担保交易的对话框里，在2010年那个200元红包的到账通知里，在每秒58万次交易洪峰平稳渡过的技术日志里。

这就是.XIN的重量。轻如一个字符，重如一个商业文明。
