Registrar figures are for July 2026. ICANN publishes monthly registry reports about three months in arrears, and they are the only source that attributes domains to registrars — zone files do not contain registrar information. Methodology.

Of the 14,035 domains that came up for renewal between Aug 2025 and Jul 2026, the share renewed rather than deleted. How this is computed.

For comparison, the median new gTLD keeps 67.40% and .com, .net and .org together keep 73.18%. One caveat specific to this TLD: 1 filing in this window reports up to 9,430 renewals or deletions against a peak of 6,046 domains, which is not possible. The figure above is as filed; setting those months aside gives 85.67%.

6,046 attributed to registrars in Jul 2026, against 5,778 in 10 Nov 2026’s zone — the zone is 268 smaller. The two are months apart, and a registry's own count also includes registrations that are not delegated in the zone. Why there are two clocks.

Data currency. Domain counts on this page are from zone files dated and refresh daily. Registrar figures are from ICANN's monthly registry reports for July 2026, which ICANN publishes about three months in arrears; zone files contain no registrar information, so no fresher source exists. Full detail on methodology and live pipeline status.
