Analysis of xhope.finance, registered through NameCheap on 21 February 2026, shows that the domain is currently taken offline. The domain resolves to the Cloudflare‑owned address 188.114.96.3 within ASN 13335, located in the United States. No TLS certificate is presented, meaning HTTPS connections are not available. The authoritative name servers are fattouche.ns.cloudflare.com and ryleigh.ns.cloudflare.com, both belonging to Cloudflare’s DNS infrastructure.
The site’s last observed page title reads "Uniswap | Trade Crypto on DeFi’s Leading Exchange", yet the domain is listed as impersonating the Aave brand and is classified as a crypto‑scam. Infra‑level indicators place the domain on three public security blocklists and it is actively blocked by PhishDestroy, MetaMask, and SEAL. Gridinsoft assigns a trust score of 0/100, confirming a high‑confidence malicious assessment. VirusTotal analysis recorded 11 detections out of 95 scanning engines, reinforcing the malicious rating.
The combination of a newly created domain, use of reputable cloud hosting, lack of encryption, and alignment with known Aave‑related phishing campaigns suggests a purpose‑built fraud operation. Current uncertainty remains around the exact payload or credential‑harvesting mechanisms because the site is offline and no page content has been captured. Defenders should add xhope.finance to network deny‑lists, monitor DNS queries for the associated Cloudflare IP range, and enforce TLS‑only policies that reject connections to non‑HTTPS endpoints. Continuous telemetry from blocklist feeds and endpoint security solutions should be used to detect any resurgence of the domain or reuse of the same infrastructure in future campaigns.

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.

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.
This timeline displays historical security and status checkpoints observed by the PhishDestroy automated monitoring network. It records domain lifecycle updates, scanner changes, and threat telemetry over time.
12 recorded events. These records describe collected evidence, outgoing notifications and publication; they do not confirm a complete investigation or a takedown.
Threat Ingested
xhope.finance detected and queued for full analysis
A stored Cloudflare Radar report is available. The report link alone is not a malicious verdict and does not prove that every network field was captured.
The latest stored checks indicate that the reported content is unavailable; this does not establish who or what caused the change.
