i found a deleted expired domain. going through history i found that previously hosted site is hacked. is it worth registering domain?
 
Depends on the purpose...once registered connect it to Search Console, it will tell you if security issues have been found and site de-indexed. You can then "ask" to verify the website again if safe and it will be clean again.
 
That domain could be still penalized or simply "lame", meaning that it will never rank well. If you see this kind of history, just skip the domain.
