Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] Is xrpl-space.live a Fake XRP Ledger Phishing Site? Analysis of xrpl-space.live indicates this domain is under investigation for phishing activity targeting users of the XRP Ledger (XRPL) cryptocurrency platform. The domain was registered on July 17, 2026, through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED, a registrar frequently associated with high-risk domains. It currently resolves to the IP address 188.114.96.3, which is part of Cloudflare’s network, a common tactic to obscure hosting origins and evade IP-based blocking. The domain uses Cloudflare nameservers (jimmy.ns.cloudflare.com and miki.ns.cloudflare.com), further complicating attribution and takedown efforts. As of July 20, 2026, xrpl-space.live appears on one security blocklist, specifically PhishDestroy, which flags it as malicious. While the domain has been scanned by 91 vendors on VirusTotal, none currently detect it as malicious. However, the absence of detections does not confirm safety, as phishing domains often evade initial scans through obfuscation or delayed activation of malicious payloads. The domain remains active, and its infrastructure aligns with patterns observed in cryptocurrency phishing campaigns, including the use of Cloudflare for anonymity and a recently registered domain to exploit trust in new or seemingly legitimate URLs. Defenders should treat this domain as high-risk until further analysis confirms its intent. Network-level blocking is recommended, particularly for organizations handling cryptocurrency transactions or XRPL-related services. Monitoring for additional detections or changes in infrastructure (e.g., shifts in IP or nameservers) may provide further evidence of malicious activity. Given the domain’s recent registration and targeted naming convention, users should exercise caution and verify any communications or links claiming to originate from XRPL or related services. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260720-63C116 TLS cert SHA-256: 5d9043eab7d40969436c06f51ee73999d37699f697dcddacd300f156250c2278 ## 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/xrpl-space.live/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=xrpl-space.live 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.
