I would recommend against using an objective-c method to determine
whether your program has been registered. All of that lovely meta-data
that the objective-c compiler provides can and will be used against you.
Stripping the binary is no help since the addresses of methods are
preserved in the objective-c segment.
Better still: Leave an "isRegistered" method in your binary but just as
a decoy; use (c) functions (or macros) to do the real dirty work.
No registration system is perfect, but a verification mechanism that
advertises its interface is asking for trouble.
