chainwatch[.]live
Forensic brief
Read full brief
PhishDestroy identifies chainwatch.live as an active crypto phishing domain designed to steal wallet passphrases and exchange logins. The site presents itself as a real-time crypto tracker while silently exfiltrating entered credentials to attacker-controlled servers. Investigators note that once credentials are captured, funds are drained within hours, often irreversibly.
The domain was registered on April 16, 2026 through PDR Ltd. d/b/a PublicDomainRegistry.com and is currently hosted at IP 188.114.96.3. VirusTotal scanning engines report 0 out of 95 detections at the time of analysis, indicating low signature coverage and a high likelihood that the page remains undetected by most endpoint and network defenses. Let’s Encrypt provides an SSL certificate, giving the false impression of legitimacy, while the IP address is known to host multiple fraudulent dashboards targeting crypto investors.
If you visited chainwatch.live and entered any credentials or recovery phrases, immediately disconnect the device from the internet, revoke API keys on exchanges, and transfer remaining assets to a new, unrelated wallet. Reset passwords on all crypto services with reused credentials and enable hardware-based two-factor authentication. Report the domain and any wallet addresses to your local financial cybercrime unit and consider freezing compromised accounts.
Monitor transaction histories daily for 30 days; attackers often delay withdrawals to bypass fraud detection thresholds.

Recommendations & Advice for Victims
- Do not pay anything else. Recovery agents demanding upfront fees are a second-stage scam.
- Disconnect compromised wallets. Move remaining funds to a fresh seed phrase generated offline.
- Preserve evidence. Screenshot transactions, save URLs, archive emails — chain-of-custody matters for prosecution.
- Report to authorities (see section 15 below) — even small reports help build case patterns.
- Notify your bank/exchange. Some chargebacks may still be possible within 24-72h.
