Thanks a lot! Yeah, I'm looking for a registrar that ensures high security, availability and most importantly a functional support. I don't mind paying extra bucks.
Since I'm from Germany it'd propably be best to also use a provider from Germany in case any legal issues arise.
This is really the best solution: pay (a lot) extra to get a registrar that offers enterprise class support.
Make sure you set up 2FA, fallback email addresses (also 2FA'd), pay for 10 years in advance, etc, but most important is that the company will call you if there's a problem or a transfer request.
Similarly, make sure you call them every 6 months, confirm your authentication process, confirm all your points of contact, confirm billing, etc, etc. Put it in your calendar, and make sure it gets done.
Your domain name is a single point of failure that you cannot avoid: your only choice is to get the best service you can justify in your budget.
