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 ---------------------------------------------------------------- First detected: 2026-02-25 02:39:27 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2025-09-02 02:44:19 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-04-29 07:48:41 UTC Neutralised: 2026-02-25 00:19:51 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019908f4-44a5-766c-bb04-365f7634a1a2/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/blockdag.network crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.blockdag.network Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=blockdag.network AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/blockdag.network URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/blockdag.network/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-03-24 00:37:22 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies blockdag.network as a brand impersonation phishing domain targeting Across, promoting a fake crypto ICO presale titled 'BlockDAG | Best Crypto ICO | Layer 1 Crypto Presale 2025 Now LIVE!'. This classification highlights its intent to deceive users by mimicking a legitimate brand. The domain resolves to IP 172.66.166.130 and is registered via TLD Registrar Solutions Ltd. VirusTotal flags it with only 1 of 95 vendors, indicating low detection. It appears on 1 security blocklist and is referenced in 2 AlienVault OTX threat pulses, underscoring active monitoring by security platforms. Currently active and still operational, blockdag.network presents a low-risk phishing threat. Users are advised to avoid engagement and report suspicious activity. PhishDestroy continues to track this domain's status to inform and protect the community. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: 67dd415045fe10c933e9d84cef2f5050 TLS cert SHA-256: 4f54d1653687a5b8c41cea059d8cc82572b9181e131668c66e86281a4597bada ## 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.network/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=blockdag.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.
