tetherelitefinance.com returned HTTP status 502 on 2026-10-01, a dated response recorded during an HTTP check. The domain was first observed on 2026-09-12, and its registration date is listed as 2024-07-02 with registrar OwnRegistrar, Inc.
Recorded Evidence
The PhishDestroy internal listing records tetherelitefinance.com as listed, with that catalogue checked on 2026-10-01. OTX recorded 4 pulses for the domain on 2026-09-21. VirusTotal recorded 4 detections across 89 scanners on 2026-09-21, with observation time known set to false. The IP address 160.119.196.20 is recorded in NG under AS328171 TREFOIL NETWORKS LTD.
Interpretation
The PhishDestroy listing and the OTX pulse count were both checked on 2026-09-21, while the HTTP response and blocklist check carry a 2026-10-01 date, so these records describe different moments rather than one synchronized snapshot. VirusTotal's 2026-09-21 result and the 2026-10-01 HTTP response cannot be directly compared as if they were simultaneous. The first observation on 2026-09-12 predates the registration date of 2024-07-02 by a wide margin, which is a discrepancy in the recorded timeline rather than a conclusion about the domain.
Recommended Actions
Retain the dated records for tetherelitefinance.com, including the 2026-10-01 HTTP response and the 2026-09-21 OTX and VirusTotal checks, so later observations can be compared against them. When reviewing tetherelitefinance.com, avoid submitting passwords, payment details or other sensitive information through pages or forms associated with the domain. Compare any subsequent checks of tetherelitefinance.com with these dated entries rather than treating a single record as a current description.

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.
