Like I frequently¹ advise²:

Don’t look to large, well-known registrars. I would suggest that you look for local registrars in your area. The TLD registry for your country/area usually has a list of the authorized registrars, so you can simply search that for entities with a local address.

Disclaimer: I work at such a small registrar, but you are not in our target market.

How do you monitor for when they inevitably get acquired?

>>remram+C21
That’s a very SV view on things; i.e. that small companies inevitably get acquired. Most small companies don’t actually get acquired, and are not looking to be acquired.

The simple answer is: Choose a registrar without significant external investors.
