Will Google penalize hals.dot for being a new gTLD?

No. Google does not penalize new gTLDs; hals.dot is evaluated on the same quality and relevance signals as a .com. Any perceived ranking difference comes from content, links, and technical health — not from hals.dot's extension. Build authority normally.

For mobile money, is .PAY Sunrise first-come, first-served for trademark holders?

.PAY Sunrise is a Start-Date Sunrise, so eligible trademark registrations are allocated on a first-come, first-served basis when policy requirements are met. Start the request at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. Waiting can increase the risk that another eligible party gets the matching label first.
