Every string applied for in the 2026 round
All 980 strings with a live application, and how many applicants want each. Not one of them is delegated: these are bids in ICANN's 2026 round, and the contested ones must be resolved before any can enter the root.

Data currency. Domain counts on this page are from zone files dated and refresh daily. Registrar figures are from ICANN's monthly registry reports for June 2026, which ICANN publishes about three months in arrears; zone files contain no registrar information, so no fresher source exists.
