“Aster - The next-gen perp DEX for all traders”
Analysis of aster-dex.online indicates that the domain was created on September 22, 2025 and is currently taken offline. The domain resolves to IP address 188.114.96.3, which is owned by Cloudflare, Inc. (AS13335) and geolocated to the United States. DNS resolution is handled by the Cloudflare nameservers amit.ns.cloudflare.com and kimora.ns.cloudflare.com. No SSL certificate was observed for the site, meaning HTTPS connections would be unencrypted if the domain were active.
The page title returned from the HTTP response is “Aster - The next-gen perp DEX for all traders,” suggesting an attempt to masquerade as a decentralized exchange platform. The domain is registered through the REGRU-RU registrar and has been flagged by multiple security vendors: eight of ninety‑five VirusTotal scanners returned a detection, and the domain appears on one external blocklist. It has also been listed in a single AlienVault OTX pulse. A trust score from Gridinsoft rates the domain at 0 out of 100, reinforcing its malicious reputation.
Defensive controls have already taken action; PhishDestroy has blocked the domain, and the current status is reported as offline. While the available evidence confirms the domain’s involvement in brand impersonation targeting the “across” brand, the specific phishing kit, credential capture method, and any associated command‑and‑control infrastructure remain unknown. Organizations should continue to monitor DNS queries for the resolved IP and enforce blocklists that include aster-dex.online. Network defenders are advised to update web filtering solutions, enforce TLS inspection where possible, and ensure that users are warned against any unsolicited communications referencing the “Aster” DEX branding.
