serverHold status means registry, not registrar, hold - the relevant protocol (not WHOIS) has the registry as the server, as you'd expect. But you are right about GoDaddy and they are a strange choice.

clientHold = registrar (GoDaddy)

serverHold = registry (Montenegrin Registry)

IIRC Telegram has some kind of direct partnership with .me registry. I wonder if it's related
