Score suggests a weak resale profile. Unless you have a specific end-user in mind, the carrying cost outweighs the upside.

optimus.city is a keyword-forward name — "optimus" carries intrinsic meaning before any branding layer is added. At 7 chars the name is past the premium-length threshold; value here depends more on meaning and TLD than pure scarcity. It is balanced between vowels and consonants — typical for a pronounceable English-style name. A .city address keeps the cost base low but also caps the upside — most serious buyers will weigh it against a .com equivalent. No Wayback snapshots exist for this address, which typically means prior owners never developed a public site. DQS 47/100 is the mid-band: the domain has real signals behind it but isn't an obvious standout. Mid-band names reward buyers who understand a specific niche. The domain is currently in the Redemption Grace Period — the original owner retains the right to restore for roughly 26 more days. It is not available to register today. The signals are mixed enough that we'd only recommend the name to someone who already has a concrete use for it rather than as a speculative play.

Redemption period. Original owner can still restore for a fee. Typically catchable ~30-35 days after redemption start — not safe to pay a backorder fee yet if the owner looks active.
