Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] uscryptosummits.com was registered on July 06, 2026 through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED and resolves to 185.244.36.18, an address owned by SpectraIP B.V. in the Netherlands (AS62068). The site presents a page titled “United States Crypto Summit 2026 — Official Registration” and serves content over HTTPS using a Let’s Encrypt certificate (YR1). HTTP response code is 200 and the web server identifies as LiteSpeed with HTTP/3 support. The domain is listed on a single security blocklist and has been flagged by PhishDestroy. VirusTotal reports a single detection among 91 scanners, and AlienVault OTX includes the domain in one pulse. Gridinsoft assigns a trust score of 0/100. The infrastructure indicates a newly created crypto‑related scam site, consistent with the “Crypto Scam” classification. No additional content analysis is available, and the exact phishing vector or credential collection mechanism has not been observed. Defenders should block the domain at network perimeter, add it to URL filtering and sink‑hole lists, monitor DNS queries for the associated IP and nameservers (ns1.thebighoster.top, ns2.thebighoster.top), and continue to correlate any attempted accesses with user reports. Ongoing observation is recommended to capture any evolution of the payload or landing pages. [Updates since narrative was generated:] - VirusTotal detections: now 1/91 (narrative was written when count was lower) ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: b34a62637ad04ef3c11d1437440cc295 TLS cert SHA-256: d9d8b52b8fc6b8934a260a9ce5438bb7fcbee0ce764fe78b86ea4a36c4ed7ed6 ## 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 (operator 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. ## CORRECTIONS / APPEALS ---------------------------------------------------------------- Full HTML report: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/uscryptosummits.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=uscryptosummits.com Appeal a flag: https://phishdestroy.io/appeals/ (responded to within 48 hours, FP rate <0.01%) Submit a report: https://t.me/PhishDestroy_bot About PhishDestroy: independent open-source threat-intelligence platform.
