# PhishDestroy threat dossier — bitcoinhyper.network ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-04-26 16:04:05 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/bitcoinhyper.network/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 84/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Scam classification: wallet_connect_phish Targeted brand: ethereum (and: foundation, metamask, near, revolut) ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 2/93 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: Fortinet, SOCRadar Public blocklists: listed on 3 independent blocklists Victim re-reports (public form): 1 ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 172.67.175.86 (US, San Francisco) ASN: ASAS13335 CLOUDFLARENET - Cloudflare, Inc., US Hosting org: AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc. Registrar: NiceNIC International Group Co., Limited !!! REGISTRAR INTEGRITY ALERT — NiceNIC !!! NiceNIC International: over 90% of its registered domains are associated with illegal content; documented systematic abuse-report non-response. Primary sources: https://phishdestroy.io/nicenic-real https://phishdestroy.io/nicenic-verdict Nameservers: ["ernest.ns.cloudflare.com", "clara.ns.cloudflare.com"] Registered: 2026-02-21 Expires: 2026-09-20 Page title: Bitcoin Hyper BTC Layer 2 | Best Crypto Presale To Buy Now ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Google Trust Services / WE1 Expires: 2026-05-14 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: 78cf35f529011f772fd8fe2932455d14a337b5698a635d7ddbaae0b75c24f1f5 ## 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. ## TIMELINE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Domain registered: 2026-02-21 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-02-25 02:39:27 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Earliest abuse rec: 2026-02-13 14:21:44 UTC — PREDATES current WHOIS registration; retained from a previous registration cycle of the same domain name Last verified: 2026-04-24 18:49:39 UTC Neutralised: 2026-04-24 05:52:17 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) Note: one or more events above predate the WHOIS creation date. This typically means the same domain name was previously registered, detected, dropped, and then re-registered by a new party. PhishDestroy preserves the full historical record for operator-attribution research even when the underlying infrastructure changes hands. ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019c56ba-6d34-7291-be22-15bad0f2f4c7/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/bitcoinhyper.network crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.bitcoinhyper.network Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=bitcoinhyper.network AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/bitcoinhyper.network URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/bitcoinhyper.network/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-03-19 05:53:00 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies bitcoinhyper.network as a domain impersonating the Bitcoin brand to deceive users. Though currently offline, this site was designed to exploit trust in Bitcoin by promoting a fake crypto presale called “Bitcoin Hyper BTC Layer 2.” Such impersonation risks misleading visitors into divulging sensitive information or investing in fraudulent schemes. The phishing technique involved mimicking Bitcoin’s identity and offering a seemingly attractive crypto presale opportunity. Visitors were likely encouraged to invest or share private keys and credentials under the guise of early access to a new crypto product. The domain was flagged on multiple security blocklists and showed minor detection on VirusTotal, indicating some recognition of its potentially malicious intent. If you have visited bitcoinhyper.network, it is important to remain vigilant. Do not share any personal or financial information, and monitor your crypto wallets for unusual activity. Consider running security scans on your devices and changing passwords linked to your crypto accounts. Always verify official sources to avoid falling victim to brand impersonation scams like this. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: bad59ffdf685fdc12cc6e1d641b5474c TLS cert SHA-256: 78cf35f529011f772fd8fe2932455d14a337b5698a635d7ddbaae0b75c24f1f5 ## 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. ## CORRECTIONS / APPEALS ---------------------------------------------------------------- Full HTML report: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/bitcoinhyper.network/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=bitcoinhyper.network Appeal a flag: https://phishdestroy.io/appeals/ (responded to within 48 hours, FP rate <0.01%) Submit a report: https://t.me/PhishDestroy_bot About PhishDestroy: volunteer-driven open-source threat-intelligence platform.
