# How .ai money makes Anguilla more resilient

June 12, 2026 · Summary of an article by Ian Packham, Adventure.com

.ai opened for worldwide sale in 2009 and passed one million names by January 2026. The money funds debt repayment, a sovereign wealth fund and a $175 million airport upgrade.

That matters for an island where tourism dominates and hurricanes, like Irma in 2017, cause huge damage.
