**Executive summary:** The report highlights trends in TLD abuse for botnet command-and-control infrastructure, reporting a 56% rise in .pw listings (an increase of 4,835 C&Cs), decreased .ru registrations, the emergence of Freenom-operated free TLDs (.tk, .ml, .ga, .gg, .cf) in abuse rankings, and the specific risks posed by decentralized TLDs such as .bit (resilience to takedown, registrant anonymity, and DNS firewall bypass).
