💡 Websites, scripts for BTC web4crypto.xyz
Buy with crypto from a registrar that offers Whois Guard e.g. NameSilo or Namecheap or just enter pseudonym and virtual address. Domain registrars dont ask for government ID.

I got the hosting and the domain with my persona paypal.
Its news website, not any illigal thing. Just the freedom of speech is very limited in my country.
This is what crypto (especially monero) and tor are for. You can transfer the domain e.g. to Namecheap and buy Whois Guard but with court order the registrar will probably disclose your infos. If there is a real risk, consider the hosting and domain to be burned and buy different hosting and domain from a different company with bitcoin or monero (either use pseudonym + virtual address or use host like OrangeWebsite which only requires email address).

As long you are hosted on a third party service, it's not completely safe if being anonymous is your biggest concerns. As someone suggested above having a domain transfer can add a certain level of security but if you get into any serious offences it's easily trackable. I suggest you buy another domain and this time user registration details which aren't directly related to your identity. You can then, have a proxy server which sends traffic from your old domain to the new one. This way, your old domain won't be used much but it will be functional.

You have two options :

1. Ask a trusted individual to hold your domain who would not run away with it and won't blackmail you. Just like how this forum's domain is owned by Cobra while Theymos is the acting admin.
You can see the fallacy of such an approach here : https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/bitcoinorg-domain-ownership-issues-2548-4749029 Even the most trusted individuals may change their characters.

2. The second option is to go with privacy protection companies.
Some of examples of such companies are : Perfect Privacy LLC, WhoisGuard Inc, Domains By Proxy LLC etc
In general when you transfer domain to services like, bigrock, godaddy, namecheap, hostgator or even wix for that matter, they offer you an additional service of privacy protection that you can subscribe for. They would only charge you a nominal monthly/yearly recurring fee.

And if you really want someone to host your domain for you. You can get in touch with me if you feel like I'm reputable enough.

Hi,
I heard WHOIS is not safe enough.
I got the hosting and the domain with my persona paypal.

IMO, WHOIS protection is safe enough. That's the best privacy protection you can get for a domain name AFAIK.

BTW, I've 10+ years old domain names registered at wrong address/wrong name/wrong phone, I've never bothered to correct the details (the registered name is literally "Vegeta Goku"). I've not seen anybody checking the accuracy of entered details. This is not something I'd recommend, just wanted to let you know!

You want to transfer the domain to an individual who then holds it in your name?

Seems like there is a lot of room for things to go wrong, especially if said individual has a reason to run off with the domain, (highly valued, et al), or even blackmail you?

Do you want something like WHOIS privacy protection, that keeps the domain name registrant's phone/name/address hidden?

Would you mind telling us that from which registrar you've purchased the domain name?
WHO.IS is indeed a good option.

If that's not fitting for OP, another option would be to let a company such as https://njal.la/ hold your domain. I haven't used Njalla myself, so use them with due dilligence.





As per their #FAQ, you can also transfer already existing domains. Again, i have no clue how trustworthy they really are.
Transfering an existing domain
It's possible to transfer your current domain to us. Search for your domain and choose 'transfer'. (You need to have credits in your wallet for the option to show up)
