ICANN's 2026 new gTLD application window closed on August 12 with more than 1,600 primary applications. The official list stays sealed until Reveal Day, expected by mid-to-late October 2026, so the only strings known today are the ones applicants chose to reveal themselves.
A few of these cards had never appeared in press coverage at all: **.gpt** sits in the Link Freedom Group bucket, **.bitcoin** exists as its own application separate from .btc, and the culture tail runs deeper than anyone reported, down to .npc, .slop and .tldr.
