## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-06-28 13:45:52 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

The domain foundationhyperliquid.com poses a significant threat as a brand impersonation site specifically targeting Hyperliquid. Threat actors leverage this domain to deceive users into believing they are interacting with the legitimate brand, potentially leading to the compromise of personal information and financial data. 

Registered through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED on June 22, 2026, this domain is still active and has been assessed on VirusTotal. The results reveal that only 1 out of 95 security vendors have flagged this domain, which indicates a lack of widespread recognition or blocking by security systems. This low detection rate could result in unsuspecting users visiting the site, unaware of the potential risks. Given the brand being impersonated, the risk to users is categorized as high. 

Users who may have visited foundationhyperliquid.com are advised to take immediate action. It is recommended to check for any unauthorized transactions relating to their accounts, change passwords, and enable multi-factor authentication wherever possible. Additionally, reporting any engaging communications that seem to originate from this domain to the relevant authorities can assist in curtailing its operations.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
Favicon MD5:       386cda684caae41fb5cf734822700917
TLS cert SHA-256:      faa07c005602689be812fe3890dc3d4f542f1a8d7eb0c3356422e2f88690c31a

## 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.
