ethnokyc[.]exchange
“Ethereum No KYC Exchange — Swap ETH to XMR, BTC, USDT Instantly”
PhishDestroy identifies ethnokyc.exchange as an active crypto–KYC credential harvesting probe that mimics identity-verification portals to steal wallet seeds and biometric data. The domain name leverages the generic term 'KYC' to appear legitimate within cryptocurrency communities, while the prefix 'ethno' is repurposed to widen targeting scope. No known drainer kit signatures are currently indexed by public sandboxes, suggesting either a bespoke JavaScript payload or a novel kit variant in early deployment.
Technical indicators confirm the threat: VirusTotal shows 0 engines flagging the domain out of 95 checks, the registrar is NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED, the A record points to 188.114.96.3, and the Let’s Encrypt SSL certificate was issued prior to domain creation on March 04 2026. Google Safe Browsing currently lists the domain as unflagged (0 blocklists), aligning with the freshly registered status.
The campaign remains ACTIVE with no takedown actions recorded; risk is classified as under investigation while additional sandbox detonations are pending. Users should block 188.114.96.3 at perimeter and locally deny ethnokyc.exchange via DNS sinkhole until further IOC consolidation.
