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 star-gate-finance-stargate.finance as an elevated-risk phishing domain specifically crafted to impersonate Stargate Finance, a legitimate decentralized finance platform. This domain employs deceptive naming and branding to trick users into surrendering sensitive wallet credentials or transferring cryptocurrency under false pretenses. Users who interact with this site risk financial loss and credential compromise, as threat actors harvest login details and private keys through fraudulent forms and wallet connection prompts. This domain was flagged by 1 out of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal, indicating limited but concerning detection. It resolves to IP address 188.114.96.3, a hosting infrastructure associated with malicious campaigns. Registered through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED on September 8, 2025, this domain is extremely new, suggesting opportunistic registration following the popularity of legitimate Stargate Finance. The presence of a Google Trust Services SSL certificate may lend false legitimacy, but this does not validate the site’s trustworthiness. Further, the obfuscated page title using multiple “www.” prefixes is a common evasion tactic to bypass browser filters and deceive users. To mitigate risk, users must avoid clicking links to this domain and verify all URLs before entering sensitive information. Use official Stargate Finance websites and apps only. Enable wallet address verification, use hardware wallets, and monitor transactions for unauthorized activity. Report this domain to your security provider and block it in browser settings. Always cross-check domains via trusted sources or official project channels before engaging.

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.
