OpenAI acquired the chat.com domain, likely for well over $10 million. OpenAI CEO Sam Altman posted a one-word tweet this morning that simply mentioned “chat.com”. 
Actually if you try to visit chat.com now it redirects to chatgpt.com.
Chat.com is one of the oldest domains on the web, having been first registered in September 1996. Last year, it was acquired by HubSpot co-founder and CTO Dharmesh Shah for $15,5 million.
OpenAI has not said how much it paid for Chat.com.
We should mention that there are many who collect domains. They buy them cheap and hold them until the right buyer is found. Having raised $6,6 billion, OpenAI reportedly paid more than $15 million — in cash or stock.
And what happened, a drop in the ocean
