Registrars provide the nameservers you give them to the TLD itself. So, resolution doesn't depend on the registrar's infrastructure unless you're using the registrar's nameservers directly.
It works like this: Root -> TLD -> NS -> NS -> ETC.
Root Servers are fixed and everything drills down from there: https://www.iana.org/domains/root/servers
A visual example of how the nameserver hops work starting from the root using the nameserver delegation view feature of our dns lookup tool: https://www.misk.com/tools/#dns/[email protected]...

Opensource OpenTTD [1] (based on Transportation Tycoon Deluxe) is still around and in active development it seems. It was a great Simcity replacement in the past for me. Obviously graphics are dated, but gameplay was great.

No domain registrar should be taking the last four of your credit card number as proof of account identity or ownership. We certainly don't. Have you confirmed they reset the password based on just the last four of the credit card OR was your account's email address itself comprised, allowing them to reset the password via your email address?
