Score
74/100

This report analyzes the domain checker.exchange, which was observed impersonating the Solana brand. The site presented itself as an "Airdrop Checker" for a cryptocurrency exchange and wallet platform supporting Solana, Ethereum, and BTC. The threat posed is a cryptocurrency scam designed to deceive users into interacting with a fraudulent airdrop verification process, likely to steal credentials, private keys, or funds.

Technical analysis reveals the domain was flagged by 4 out of 95 VirusTotal vendors, with detections from ADMINUSLabs, Fortinet, Kaspersky, and SOCRadar, and was listed on 4 blocklists. The domain was registered through NiceNIC International Group Co., Limited, with an IP address of 188.114.97.3 located in the United States, hosted by Cloudflare, Inc. (AS13335). The domain was created on 2026-02-25 and had no SSL certificate. The nameservers were bryce.ns.cloudflare.com and carol.ns.cloudflare.com.

At the time of analysis, checker.exchange was offline and not accessible. Based on the impersonation of Solana, the airdrop scam type, and the low detection rate, the risk level is assessed as high. The domain is a confirmed threat targeting cryptocurrency users despite its current inactive status.

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.

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.
