# PhishDestroy threat dossier — dashboard-bitlayer.xyz ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-07-04 18:29:55 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/dashboard-bitlayer.xyz/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 100/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Scam classification: Crypto Drainer ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 4/91 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: Fortinet AlienVault OTX: 1 pulses (threat-intel feed mentions) Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 104.21.13.166 (CA, Toronto) ASN: AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc. Hosting org: 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: daniella.ns.cloudflare.com, wesley.ns.cloudflare.com Registered: 2026-06-27 Expires: 2027-06-27 Page title: Just a moment... ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Google Trust Services / WE1 Expires: 2026-09-25 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: 28df48f25c38f893ea1c94baa1f486bbc491929dd3ecd296cf438f8e0e26e82a ## 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: 2026-06-27 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-07-01 06:08:56 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-07-01 04:15:43 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-07-04 20:20:35 UTC Neutralised: 2026-07-02 06:18:40 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019f1bdc-3f30-70cd-ba69-e45534d1ffbf/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/dashboard-bitlayer.xyz crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.dashboard-bitlayer.xyz Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=dashboard-bitlayer.xyz AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/dashboard-bitlayer.xyz URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/dashboard-bitlayer.xyz/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-07-01 07:16:26 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This domain is flagged as a high-risk crypto drainer infrastructure, specifically designed to impersonate Bitlayer, a blockchain platform. Analysis indicates the site likely targets cryptocurrency wallet credentials or private keys, enabling unauthorized fund transfers from victims' wallets to attacker-controlled addresses. The specificity of the domain name, combined with the technical indicators, suggests a targeted campaign against users of the Bitlayer ecosystem or those interacting with cross-chain protocols. Infrastructure analysis reveals the following technical indicators: the domain dashboard-bitlayer.xyz resolves to IP address 104.21.13.166, a Cloudflare-associated address often used to obfuscate hosting origins. It was registered on June 27, 2026, through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED, a registrar frequently exploited for malicious domain registrations. The domain is flagged by 1 out of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal, indicating low initial detection but potential for rapid escalation. AlienVault OTX lists the domain in one threat intelligence pulse, suggesting emerging recognition within the security community. The SSL certificate is issued by Google Trust Services, providing a false sense of legitimacy to unsuspecting users. Despite these indicators, the domain remains active, increasing the likelihood of successful attacks. Mitigation against this crypto drainer threat requires immediate action from both users and network defenders. Users should verify all interactions with Bitlayer or similar platforms by cross-referencing official domains and avoiding links from unsolicited messages. Wallet software should be configured to require manual approval for all transactions, and hardware wallets should be used for high-value assets to prevent remote exploitation. Network-level protections include blocking the domain dashboard-bitlayer.xyz and its resolving IP 104.21.13.166 at firewalls or DNS resolvers. Organizations should monitor for connections to this infrastructure and investigate any internal systems that interact with it. Given the low detection rate, proactive hunting for related domains or IPs using the same registrar or hosting patterns is recommended to identify additional threats. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260701-8DC35A Favicon MD5: d5cdabe614dd51ef0b1514282b9a68ca TLS cert SHA-256: 28df48f25c38f893ea1c94baa1f486bbc491929dd3ecd296cf438f8e0e26e82a ## 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 (operator 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/dashboard-bitlayer.xyz/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=dashboard-bitlayer.xyz 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: independent open-source threat-intelligence platform.
