# PhishDestroy threat dossier — xtz.network ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-07-14 00:37:48 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/xtz.network/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 100/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 1/91 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: Gridinsoft Public blocklists: listed on 3 independent blocklists ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 146.70.233.80 (CH, Zürich) ASN: ASAS9009 M247 M247 Europe SRL, RO Hosting org: AS9009 M247 Europe SRL Registrar: NameSilo, LLC !!! REGISTRAR INTEGRITY ALERT — NameSilo !!! NameSilo is a registrar documented by PhishDestroy as (1) publicly lying about received abuse reports, (2) shielding a $20M+ Monero-theft operation (xmrwallet.com) for 10 continuous years, and (3) retaliating against PhishDestroy by getting our X/Twitter account @Phish_Destroy banned after we published the evidence. Researchers/victims must ALWAYS CC compliance@icann.org on every abuse ticket — NameSilo has a track record of later claiming reports were never received. Primary sources: https://phishdestroy.io/namesilo-killed-our-twitter https://phishdestroy.io/xmrwallet-namesilo-exposed Nameservers: ns1.146-70-233-78.cprapid.com, ns2.146-70-233-78.cprapid.com Registered: 2025-08-26 Expires: 2026-08-26 Page title: Tezos Wallet - Secure & Scalable XTZ Wallet HTTP response: 200 ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Let's Encrypt / R13 Expires: 2026-08-08 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: 834f736c3f00c314f49eb50ca050e2c5f0e67f43a3bd5099a001cd90a6c62745 ## 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: 2025-08-26 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-07-06 14:24:01 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Last verified: 2026-07-14 00:20:46 UTC Neutralised: 2026-07-06 18:16:50 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019f3761-c54d-75ff-8924-0df466ba9404/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/xtz.network crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.xtz.network Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=xtz.network AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/xtz.network URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/xtz.network/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-07-13 00:16:56 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] Analysis of the domain xtz.network shows it was registered on 26 August 2025 through NameSilo, LLC and is currently hosted on an Apache HTTP Server responding with HTTP 200. The site presents a TLS certificate issued by Let’s Encrypt (R13) and resolves to IP 146.70.233.80, which belongs to AS9009 M247 Europe SRL in Switzerland. DNS configuration uses two cprapid.com nameservers and an MX record that points to the same domain, a pattern often observed in phishing infrastructure. The page title “Tezos Wallet – Secure & Scalable XTZ Wallet” indicates an attempt to lure users of the Tezos cryptocurrency. Gridinsoft assigns a trust score of 0/100 and the domain appears on three security blocklists; it is also listed by PhishDestroy, MetaMask, and SEAL. VirusTotal reports a single detection out of 91 scanners, confirming at least one security vendor identified malicious behavior. The threat is classified as generic_phishing and is marked high risk and active. No further technical artifacts such as malicious scripts or payload hashes are publicly disclosed, leaving the exact phishing workflow uncertain. Defenders should block the domain at network perimeter, monitor DNS queries for the associated IP and nameservers, and flag any authentication attempts targeting Tezos wallets that originate from this host. Ongoing surveillance of the IP reputation and blocklist status is recommended. [Updates since narrative was generated:] - VirusTotal detections: now 1/91 (narrative was written when count was lower) ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: 66b576be1950291920692f822c666e27 TLS cert SHA-256: 834f736c3f00c314f49eb50ca050e2c5f0e67f43a3bd5099a001cd90a6c62745 ## 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/xtz.network/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=xtz.network 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.
