According to its WHOIS record, STAKTEK.COM was created on December 1, 2023 and expires on December 1, 2024. That makes the domain about 2 years old. It is registered through DropCatch.com 661 LLC (IANA ID 2141) and is past its expiry date. Its record is locked against unauthorised transfer. The registrant is listed in China. DNS is served by ns1.22.cn and ns2.22.cn. 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. 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. When a domain uses its own nameservers, the owner runs the DNS directly instead of relying on a hosting or DNS provider. A registrar transfer moves the management of a domain from one company to another without changing the domain name itself. Domains that are not renewed before their expiry date normally enter a grace and redemption period before they can be registered again. The creation date shows when the name was first registered, while the expiry date shows how long the current registration has been paid for. Changes to the registrant organisation can point to a sale, a merger or simply an update of company details. Registry locks add an extra layer of protection for valuable names, because changes then need manual confirmation by the registry. Public WHOIS records can show the registrant organisation and country, while many owners now hide personal details behind privacy services.
