How many .chat domains exist, how fast the extension is growing, and how its names are secured and used, counted every day from the registry’s own zone file.
Registry snapshot verified 2 November 2026
57,740 .chat names are delegated today, which means registered and live with nameservers. Registered names without nameservers are not in the zone, so the total registrations are a little higher.

<img src="https://axath.com/stats/chat/chart.svg" alt=".chat domain movement">Over the last 30 days 2,701 names entered the .chat zone and 1,719 left it, a net gain of 982.
5.62% of delegated .chat names publish a DS record, 3,245 in total. This measures adoption across the extension, not the security of any single website.
What a DS record does is in DNSSEC explained, and whether you actually need it.
4.26% of .chat names, 2,461, use known parking or marketplace nameservers. It is a provider-based heuristic, reliable across the extension but not a verdict on any one domain.
