Domains are not allocated an IP address by the registry. Domains are allocated IP addresses by the person who is managing the DNS servers which you entered above. There is no built-in and inseparable IP address belong to a domain. A domain is nothing more than a name with it's list of nameservers entered into the registry.

When you reg a domain, you are required to fill in name servers. Don't argue that name servers are not addresses.
If you ask the UK Prime Minister where does he live, he would answer "Prime Minister's residence". "Prime Minister's residence" here is exactly an address --- 10 Downing street.
