Hosting org: Vercel, Inc Registrar: NameSilo, LLC !!! REGISTRAR INTEGRITY ALERT — NameSilo !!! NameSilo is a registrar documented by PhishDestroy as (1) publicly lying about received abuse reports, (2) shielding a $20M+ Monero-theft operation (xmrwallet.com) for 10 continuous years, and (3) retaliating against PhishDestroy by getting our X/Twitter account @Phish_Destroy banned after we published the evidence. Researchers/victims must ALWAYS CC compliance@icann.org on every abuse ticket — NameSilo has a track record of later claiming reports were never received.

Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies blockdag-chain.live as an active crypto phishing domain designed to impersonate legitimate blockchain projects and deceive users into disclosing sensitive credentials or transferring cryptocurrency assets. The domain masquerades as a reputable crypto platform to exploit trust and harvest login details or private wallet keys, posing a direct financial threat to unwary visitors. This site should not be trusted under any circumstances. This domain was flagged by only 1 out of 95 participating VirusTotal security vendors, indicating limited but notable detection. It was registered through NameSilo, LLC on April 05, 2026, and currently resolves to IP address 64.29.17.65. The use of a Let's Encrypt SSL certificate adds a misleading veneer of legitimacy, further increasing the risk of user deception. If you have visited blockdag-chain.live or entered any information, immediately change your passwords and revoke any API keys or wallet connections associated with the site. Scan your devices for malware and monitor financial accounts for suspicious transactions. Report the domain to your security team and block it at the network level to prevent further access. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: fe6581248a83da4b5f89700649585514 TLS cert SHA-256: 1875032b08019b2d429e63272c1c9089031882305ddc158b5241fd72166ad23e ## 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/blockdag-chain.live/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=blockdag-chain.live 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.
