I'm not sure if this is a piss takeπŸ€”πŸ˜‚, but, no. Ha ha.

Normal IANA process dictates that the TLA will be retired once the country no longer exists.

You have 5 years until the two letter ccTLD is removed.

πŸ‘€ they better not

why not?! considering tons of shitcoin scams use ".IO" for their domains very very often. i really hope so because.... that would be just hilarious 🀣

5 years after the treaty is signed.
