DropPerch watches the long fall of an expired domain

Field notes

DropPerch resolves each extension through the IANA bootstrap rather than treating every domain as if it shared one status endpoint. Its stated schedule checks names far from expiry weekly, then moves names in hold, redemption, or pending delete to daily checks, with a single digest for transitions. The homepage claims coverage across more than 1,500 TLDs and describes five-registry batches at 07:17 UTC. It also presents authority and referring-domain counts as context for deciding whether a released name merits pursuit.
