Registrar contextNiceNIC
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.
This domain, kraken.broker, is flagged as a high-risk brand impersonation threat targeting Kraken, a well-known cryptocurrency exchange platform. Analysis indicates the domain is designed to deceive users by replicating Kraken’s official branding, including the page title 'Kraken | Own the Power of Your Money — Crypto, Stocks & more.' There is no evidence of a crypto drainer kit at this time, but the domain’s infrastructure and content suggest a focus on credential theft or fraudulent account access under the guise of legitimate services.
Infrastructure analysis reveals the domain was registered on June 26, 2026, through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED, a registrar frequently associated with high-risk domains. It resolves to the IP address 172.67.222.238, which is hosted on a content delivery network (CDN) known for obfuscating malicious infrastructure. The domain’s SSL certificate is issued by Google Trust Services, a common tactic to lend an appearance of legitimacy. VirusTotal reports 2 out of 95 security vendors have flagged the domain as malicious, while Google Safe Browsing (GSB) has not yet listed it as a threat. No additional blocklist entries were identified at the time of analysis, though the low detection rate may reflect evasion techniques or recent activation.
As of the latest assessment, kraken.broker remains active and continues to host fraudulent content mimicking Kraken’s official platform. Users encountering this domain are advised to avoid interaction, as any credentials or sensitive information entered are likely to be harvested for unauthorized access or financial theft. Organizations should consider proactively blocking the domain and its resolving IP at the network level. Despite its low initial detection rate, the domain’s infrastructure, registration details, and impersonation tactics present a persistent risk to users unaware of the threat. Ongoing monitoring is recommended to track potential shifts in its operational status or detection by additional security vendors.

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.
