lol i have 95% of my domains registered through namecheap, it just so happens that the ONE domain i have through godaddy, is the one i use for prosper202. had to pause most of my ads, luckily all my mobile campaigns go through a different domain not registered with them.

Even if your domain is registered with godaddy it won't take you down. Your DNS still resolves via the internet root servers.

But the entry at the root server will expire once it passes the TTL

If your nameservers are hosted at GoDaddy, then you have problems.
You should move your nameservers to your VPS provider. That way, you won't have problems if your registrar goes down. Only if your VPS providers
goes offline.
For those affected, the point is moot until GoDaddy comes back online.

FYI guys.. namecheap is just reselling enom. You could buy through enom directly. If you buy domains through us its also enom. I think we beat namecheaps pricing now to.

Wrong.
The root of all domain names begins in root-servers, delegated by IANA and maintained by ICANN.
From there, depending on the TLD, it will go to the name servers owned by that TLD registry.
Using .com for example, Verisign owns and operates the .com TLD.
Root-servers -> com -> Verisign GTLD-Servers -> domain.com
Verisign GTLD servers are updated using the EPP API by domain registrars.
When receiving and processing EPP XML transactions from the registrar Verisign will update the gtld-servers with the glue record for the domain.
The reference for this EPP XML transactional format is available at:
http://www.verisigninc.com/en_US/pro...dk/index.xhtml
Example XML transaction for EPP Register Name Servers command:
C:<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>
C:<epp xmlns="urn:ietf

arams:xml:ns:epp-1.0">
C: <command>
C: <create>
C: <host:create
C: xmlns:host="urn:ietf

arams:xml:ns:host-1.0">
C: <host:name>ns1.example.com</host:name>
C: <host:addr ip="v4">192.0.2.2</host:addr>
C: <host:addr ip="v4">192.0.2.29</host:addr>
C: <host:addr ip="v6">1080:0:0:0:8:800:200C:417A</host:addr>
C: </host:create>
C: </create>
For example, using beyondhosting.net:
A.ROOT-SERVERS.NET [.] (198.41.0.4)
|\___ m.gtld-servers.net [com] (192.55.83.30)
| |\___ ns2.beyondhosting.net [beyondhosting.net] (184.154.81.75) Got authoritative answer
| \___ ns1.beyondhosting.net [beyondhosting.net] (74.126.89.132) Got authoritative answer
Root-servers redirects us to the operational name servers for com
Since com is owned by Verisign, we get the gtld-servers.net cluster operated by Verisign
m.gtld-servers.net informs us that beyondhosting.net is managed by ns1/ns2.beyondhosting.net .
Given that ns1/ns2.beyondhosting.net are also registered name servers within the same registry (com/net share gtld-servers.net), verisign also returns the IP addresses for ns1/ns2 as an additional resource record.
If they were not registered / from a different TLD (e.g. beyondhosting.com.uk) no IP addresses would be returned and the process would repeat for the com.uk TLD authoritative name servers.
TLDR- Godaddy being down could not have affected anyone using PRIVATE NAME SERVERS and not relying on Godaddy's domaincontrol.com cluster.
This is because Godaddy does not operate any TLD directly and has no cluster referred to or delegated by root-servers.net.
Reference: IANA TLD delegation list,
http://www.iana.org/domains/root/db
And anyone using godaddys DNS services for affiliate marketing deserves to be down.
