ABUSE NOTICE · 7D+ OPEN
Outgoing abuse reports are recorded; the latest stored availability evidence still shows the domain reachable.
Notification and current-status evidence
The sent-report ledger records the first outgoing report at .
The recorded recipient is abuse@nicenic.net.
The latest stored availability evidence still shows the domain reachable; 5 months has elapsed since the first outgoing report.
ICANN RAA §3.18 describes registrar abuse-contact and handling obligations.
This section records outgoing timestamps, listed recipients, case identifiers, and later availability. It does not by itself prove receipt, acknowledgement, investigation, remediation, or contractual non-compliance.
Stored registration data identifies NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED (IANA 3765) as the registrar. PhishDestroy maintains separate NiceNIC abuse-report research; registrar association is contextual and is not an independent detection for this domain.
PhishDestroy identifies ekiden.exchange as an active crypto drainer phishing domain operating under an elevated threat classification. This domain is designed to impersonate legitimate cryptocurrency exchange login interfaces, tricking users into entering credentials or transferring assets to attacker-controlled wallets. The campaign is currently active and poses a direct financial risk to unwary traders or investors.
This domain was flagged by 1 of 95 VirusTotal security vendors, indicating limited but confirmed malicious detection. ekiden.exchange is registered through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED, resolves to IP address 188.114.97.3, and uses a Let’s Encrypt SSL certificate to appear legitimate. The domain was created on May 05, 2026, suggesting it is a recently deployed threat infrastructure. Despite its new registration, it has already been listed on one blocklist, with trust scores reflecting high-risk characteristics.
Given the active status and confirmed malicious nature, users are strongly advised to avoid interacting with ekiden.exchange or any linked pages. If you encounter this domain—via email, social media, or search results—do not enter any login credentials, download files, or engage in transactions. Verify the legitimacy of any cryptocurrency-related site using PhishDestroy’s real-time threat intelligence. Report the domain immediately to your security team or via PhishDestroy’s platform to help disrupt the campaign. Proactive domain blocking at the network firewall and email gateway is recommended to prevent accidental exposure.

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.
Saved certificate metadata. Certificate dates without a timezone are shown as stored. Transport encryption does not establish that the site is trustworthy.

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.
