Registrar figures are for May 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 9,696 domains that came up for renewal between Jun 2025 and May 2026, the share renewed rather than deleted. How this is computed.

For comparison, the median new gTLD keeps 68.45% and .com, .net and .org together keep 73.23%. One caveat specific to this TLD: 1 filing in this window reports up to 9,538 renewals or deletions against a peak of 176 domains, which is not possible. The figure above is as filed; setting those months aside gives too few decisions to measure.

170 attributed to registrars in May 2026, against 167 in 19 Sep 2026’s zone — the zone is 3 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 May 2026, which ICANN publishes about three months in arrears; zone files contain no registrar information, so no fresher source exists.
