According to its WHOIS record, METALSTAR.NET was created on October 28, 2001 and expires on October 28, 2028. This gives it about 25 years of history. It is registered through Xin Net Technology Corporation (IANA ID 120) and is active. The registrant country on record is China. Registry locks add an extra layer of protection for valuable names, because changes then need manual confirmation by the registry. Managed DNS providers are often used for speed, security and protection against attacks. Status flags such as transfer or delete locks are set by the registrar or registry to protect a domain from unauthorised changes. An older registration date is often seen as a sign of an established website, although age alone says nothing about who owns it today. When a domain uses its own nameservers, the owner runs the DNS directly instead of relying on a hosting or DNS provider. Nameservers decide where a domain's DNS is hosted, so a change of nameservers usually means the website or email moved to a new provider. Renewals are usually made for one to ten years at a time, so an expiry date far in the future shows a long-term commitment to the name. Changes to the registrant organisation can point to a sale, a merger or simply an update of company details.

In the period from November 1, 2024 to October 23, 2026, 10 fields of the record were modified. It was renewed: the expiry date went from October 28, 2025 to October 28, 2028. Scroll down to see the full current record and the complete list of historical snapshots.

The Whois Data Center archive contains 11 historical WHOIS snapshots for METALSTAR.NET. The most recent capture is from October 23, 2026. A long history with few changes usually points to a stable owner, while frequent changes can signal a transfer or a resale. Snapshots are collected over time, so the gaps between them depend on how often the record was checked. Comparing snapshots makes it easy to see when the registrar, nameservers or status of a domain changed. The snapshot list below shows every capture we hold, newest first. Security teams use WHOIS history to spot suspicious ownership changes and to link related domains. These records help track changes in registration details, ownership signals and DNS over time.
