Most advice here seems to be about securing it from yourself. Making sure you do not let someone get your credential via whatever means.
I would be more interested in how to secure it from the registrar fucking up? Is there a way to hold a domain so that even when your registrar is being tricked into giving it awway, you can still prevent that or get it back?
Or do we have to wait for cryptographically secured ownership of domains so that a key that only you yourself hold is needed to move it? Something like Ethereum Name Service domains?
Some registries have a feature called “Registry lock”. This means that a domain cannot be transferred to another registrar without a lot of work to unlock it first.
Is that possible for .com domains?
