# PhishDestroy threat dossier — voting-ethena.app ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-07-01 13:53:03 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/voting-ethena.app/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 100/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Scam classification: Generic Phishing ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 6/91 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: alphaMountain.ai, CRDF, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Fortinet, Gridinsoft, SOCRadar AlienVault OTX: 4 pulses (threat-intel feed mentions) Public blocklists: listed on 3 independent blocklists ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 104.21.39.148 (CA, Toronto) ASN: AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc. Hosting org: Cloudflare, Inc. Registrar: NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED !!! REGISTRAR INTEGRITY ALERT — NiceNIC !!! NiceNIC International: over 90% of its registered domains are associated with illegal content; documented systematic abuse-report non-response. Primary sources: https://phishdestroy.io/nicenic-real https://phishdestroy.io/nicenic-verdict Nameservers: ["fred.ns.cloudflare.com", "izabella.ns.cloudflare.com"] Registered: 2026-06-07 Expires: 2027-06-05 ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Google Trust Services / WE1 Expires: 2026-09-03 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: f1b16be121f4cf82f60a460e8f909f0453d5b9e3579307f299f70828c9b72c22 ## ABUSE-REPORT HISTORY (evidence of registrar non-response) ---------------------------------------------------------------- Status: CLOSED — no report required. This domain was neutralised before the abuse-report cycle could be dispatched — either the hosting provider / registrar suspended it on their own, the DNS went dead, or the operator abandoned the infrastructure. PhishDestroy keeps the evidence bundle on file for audit but no formal notice was sent. ## TIMELINE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Domain registered: 2026-06-07 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-06-07 11:21:13 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-06-07 11:14:24 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-07-01 12:20:36 UTC Neutralised: 2026-06-15 00:59:48 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-25 17:31:32 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This domain, voting-ethena.app, is identified as a high-risk generic phishing site targeting users of the Ethena protocol, a synthetic dollar and staking platform. Analysis indicates the domain impersonates Ethena’s governance voting portal, likely to harvest credentials or distribute malicious payloads under the guise of legitimate participation. No specific drainer kit signatures have been confirmed, but the domain’s structure and naming convention strongly suggest intent to deceive users into interacting with fraudulent governance proposals or wallet connections. Infrastructure analysis reveals the domain was registered on June 07, 2026, through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED, a registrar frequently associated with malicious registrations. It currently resolves to the IP address 104.21.39.148, a Cloudflare proxy endpoint, which obscures the true hosting origin. The domain’s SSL certificate is issued by Google Trust Services (WE1), a common practice among threat actors to lend superficial legitimacy. VirusTotal detection shows 6 out of 95 security vendors flag the domain as malicious, while it appears on 3 distinct security blocklists. Notably, the domain is actively blocked by multiple cryptocurrency-focused security tools, including wallet protection and phishing detection systems. As of the latest verification, voting-ethena.app remains active and unresolved, posing an ongoing risk to users. The domain’s use of a future creation date (June 2026) suggests an attempt to evade automated detection systems that rely on domain age as a trust signal. Recommended response actions include immediate blacklisting at the DNS and network levels, as well as user education to verify governance portals through official Ethena channels. Despite mitigation efforts, the domain’s persistence and proxy-based hosting present a residual risk, necessitating continuous monitoring for shifts in infrastructure or payload delivery. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: 289ca844f56028a166ec70167eb7ec1d TLS cert SHA-256: f1b16be121f4cf82f60a460e8f909f0453d5b9e3579307f299f70828c9b72c22 ## 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. ## CORRECTIONS / APPEALS ---------------------------------------------------------------- Full HTML report: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/voting-ethena.app/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=voting-ethena.app 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: volunteer-driven open-source threat-intelligence platform.
