## ABUSE-REPORT HISTORY (evidence of registrar non-response)
----------------------------------------------------------------
Status: CLOSED — no report required.
This domain was neutralised before the abuse-report cycle could be dispatched — either
the hosting provider / registrar suspended it on their own, the DNS went dead, or the
operator abandoned the infrastructure. PhishDestroy keeps the evidence bundle on file
for audit but no formal notice was sent.

## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-06-23 14:56:55 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

The domain app-ethena.github.io presents itself as the "Ethena Fi | Ethena™ | Official Website" and is classified as a cryptocurrency scam. This site poses a financial threat by impersonating the legitimate Ethena brand to deceive users into potentially disclosing sensitive information or transferring cryptocurrency assets to fraudulent actors.

Technical analysis reveals that the site has 2 out of 95 VirusTotal detections, specifically flagged by Fortinet and Webroot. It appears on 1 blocklist. The domain is registered through GitHub Pages and resolves to IP address 2606:50c0:8003::153, located in the United States under AS54113 Fastly, Inc. The SSL certificate is issued by Let's Encrypt (R12). GridinSoft assigns a trust rating of 0 out of 100.

The domain status is currently ACTIVE. Based on the DOM risk score of 10 and the 0/100 GridinSoft trust rating, the risk level is assessed as high. Users are advised to avoid interacting with this site.

[Updates since narrative was generated:]
  - VirusTotal detections: now 2/95 (narrative was written when count was lower)

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
Favicon MD5:       b8a0bf372c762e966cc99ede8682bc71
TLS cert SHA-256:      02bdd44d1137ce2317d9aaccd36f753caa1fbec7ee91cc5fae51d81e8ff7dca7

## SCORING METHODOLOGY
----------------------------------------------------------------
Composite score is NOT derived from VirusTotal alone. PhishDestroy aggregates:
  - VirusTotal positive ratio
  - Public blocklist consensus (MetaMask, ScamSniffer, OpenPhish, PhishTank, URLhaus,
    CryptoFirewall, SEAL, Polkadot, Enkrypt, Phishunt, DiscordPhishing, PhishingDB)
  - Cloaking detection (HTTP 666 or rendering delta between bot and real visitor)
  - DNS-filter consensus (Quad9, CleanBrowsing, NextDNS, AdGuard, Cloudflare, etc.)
  - AlienVault OTX pulses + Cloudflare Radar + Google Safe Browsing
  - URLScan / URLQuery verdicts
  - Brand-impersonation heuristics (DOM analysis of forms, logos, wording)
  - Known phishing-kit fingerprinting (favicon hash, JS obfuscation signatures)
  - Wallet-drainer family classification (Angel, MS, Rainbow, Pink, Inferno, ...)
  - Free-TLS vs paid-cert ratio (throwaway infrastructure signal)
  - Registrar/hosting abuse history (this registrar's track record)
  - Human researcher sign-off (volunteer takedown team)

A domain present in our database is ALREADY flagged. A low VT count by itself does
NOT mean the domain is safe — new scam domains routinely show 0/95 VT for their
first 7–30 days while actively draining wallets. Always cross-reference the composite
score and the individual indicators above, not just VT.
