The public federal record on N8579B, read the way a buyer, lender or insurer reads it: FAA registration, prior tail numbers keyed on the serial number, reuse of the tail number, recent registry filings, and the NTSB accident record under this and every earlier registration.

Experimental certificate for amateur built, dated June 16, 2020, consistent with the 2019 manufacture year. [1]

N8579B was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Cessna 172 (serial 36279, cancelled January 29, 1976). Histories keyed to the tail number alone can mix aircraft up; this check keys on the serial number. [2]
No bills of sale, loans or releases have reached the registry in recent weeks. The index covers only recent filings; older liens are in the records file. [3]
No NTSB investigation records located under N8579B. CLEAR means the query ran and returned nothing, not that nothing ever happened. [4]
