Stored registration data identifies NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED (IANA 3765) as the registrar. PhishDestroy maintains separate NiceNIC abuse-report research; registrar association is contextual and is not an independent detection for this domain.
PhishDestroy identifies app-velodrome.finance as an active crypto drainer domain impersonating Velodrome Finance, a legitimate decentralized exchange on Optimism. This fraudulent site uses a double-www prefix (www.www.app-velodrome.finance) to mimic official branding and harvests wallet credentials or directly drains tokens from unwitting users. The domain was registered on September 8, 2025 through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED, a registrar frequently abused in low-effort domain squatting campaigns. Traffic is routed through Cloudflare IP 188.114.96.3, a known anonymization endpoint, and secured with a Google Trust Services SSL certificate—a tactic to appear legitimate at a glance.
Security telemetry confirms elevated risk: only 1 out of 95 VirusTotal security vendors currently flags this domain, underscoring the lag between takedown and detection. This low detection rate highlights how quickly new impersonation domains can fly under the radar, especially when paired with reputable SSL issuers and cloud infrastructure. The domain’s recent creation date and clean historical record make it particularly dangerous for users searching for the real Velodrome Finance platform.
If you visited app-velodrome.finance or entered any wallet credentials, disconnect your wallet from dApps immediately, revoke any suspicious token approvals via tools like revoke.cash, and transfer remaining assets to a new wallet. Scan your device for malware and consider reporting the domain to your browser provider and Velodrome Finance’s official channels. Do not interact with this domain further—block it at the network level if possible and warn others in the Velodrome community.

Accreditation and RAA context
Registrar accreditation and DNS abuse obligations
For this gTLD, the registrar above operates under an ICANN accreditation agreement. The links below provide the official fee schedule and current DNS abuse compliance guidance.
Accreditation is a contract, not a safety certification.
RAA §3.18 establishes abuse-contact and handling requirements. This report can document stored outbound notices and later technical observations; it does not by itself establish receipt, investigation, remediation, or contractual non-compliance.
Saved certificate metadata. Certificate dates without a timezone are shown as stored. Transport encryption does not establish that the site is trustworthy.

Availability, content, DNS and registration are independent evidence layers. NXDOMAIN, an unreachable origin or missing content alone does not prove registrar action. A registrar or provider is credited only when a direct technical marker identifies that actor. Report causality is shown separately.
