When I started the project I was having a hard time finding a good domain name for the project. Some time later, I came up with this name, and found it for sale on some website for ~800€. I figured it was something I could do, but fortunately I ended up on dynadot's website where it was for sale for a fraction of the price. I think I got lucky while doing all the work :)

That domain is definitely worth more than $800, good find.

In such cases does the registrar jack up prices next year or do you get to lock in the price forever at the time of purchase?

No such thing as forever, but .com has been extremely stable and bad surprise-free, thankfully (one of the very few TLDs worth pursuing, really)
