(In a
thin domain registry, the domain contact information is held by the registrar. The registry whois just holds a referral to the registrar, the registration, expiry, update date, nameservers and domain status.)
According to Epik's whois, there seems to be a discrepancy regarding the exact registrar that is representing Registrar IANA
ID 617. Compare these two queries below. Is "Epik Holdings Inc" a registrar at all?
