Good and bad news on DNSSEC at TLDs

I tried to spot the number of Top Level Domains which have been running with DNSSEC.  The good news is that there are 64 TLDs which are DNSSEC-enabled.  However, there is also a bad news.  Some TLDs (e.g. "se.", "th." and "lk.") are not using NSEC3 algorithm which can results in all domain names being captured away by bad guys by just a single command.  By all means, because of the huge amount of domain name records in TLDs, they should be signed with NSEC3 for DNSSEC implmentations.  There is no other choice.
