Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy has identified claim-ethena.finance as a medium-risk crypto drainer domain designed to illicitly extract cryptocurrency assets from victims. The domain was involved in deceptive activities targeting users in the crypto space, aiming to compromise wallets and siphon funds under the guise of legitimate claims. Technical analysis reveals that claim-ethena.finance resolved to IP address 104.21.112.1 and was registered through NiceNIC International Group Co., Limited. The domain appeared on five security blocklists and had a low trust score of 35/100 according to Scamadviser. VirusTotal flagged the domain by 3 out of 95 security vendors, indicating some but limited detection among anti-malware engines. At the time of analysis, the domain’s web page returned a "522: Connection timed out" error, signaling connectivity issues. Currently, claim-ethena.finance is offline and inaccessible, reducing immediate risk to users. However, PhishDestroy recommends vigilance when interacting with domains promising crypto claims or rewards. Users should avoid sharing private keys or seed phrases and rely on trusted sources for cryptocurrency transactions. Continuous monitoring of similar domains and timely reporting remain essential for mitigating crypto-related scams. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- TLS cert SHA-256: c24bca4be61a06b6cb740c608f703faa1aa9e25af3fa027dea12999fd9fa82b7 ## 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/claim-ethena.finance/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=claim-ethena.finance 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.
