Evidence
The listed URL
https://egera.com/is currently unreachable: the domain has no DNS A record, so no IP address resolves and HTTPS connections cannot be established.The domain registration itself is still active (registered via GoDaddy until 2027, with Cloudflare nameservers), and email infrastructure remains configured (Google Workspace MX records). However, the web platform is not deployed — no A record means no website can load at this domain.
Criterion
Per
docs/adding-exchanges.md, "Site functionality" is the first review criterion. A listed URL whose domain returns no IP address fails that criterion at the most fundamental level: the listed exchange website cannot be reached at all.This appears to be a multi-month state, not a transient outage; the registration and nameserver records have been stable while the A record remains absent.
