app-uniswap[.]run[.]place

Analysis of the domain app-uniswap.run.place indicates it was actively involved in a crypto scam impersonating the Uniswap brand. The domain, registered on February 21, 2026, through Netdorm, Inc. dba DnsExit.com, resolved to the IP address 185.118.79.212, hosted under AS214738 (WEHOST LLC) in the United States. No SSL certificate was present, and the page title observed was 'Index of /', suggesting either misconfigured or intentionally minimal server content. Nameservers for the domain were ns10.dnsexit.com, ns11.dnsexit.com, ns12.dnsexit.com, and ns13.dnsexit.com, consistent with the registrar's infrastructure.

At the time of assessment, the domain was flagged by 12 of 93 security vendors on VirusTotal, confirming detection by multiple threat intelligence sources. It appeared on one security blocklist and was blocked by PhishDestroy. The domain has since been taken offline, though residual DNS records may persist. The scam classification aligns with known patterns of crypto-related fraud, though specific on-page functionality or user interaction mechanisms remain unconfirmed due to the domain's current offline status.

Defenders should treat this domain as compromised infrastructure and monitor for re-registration or re-emergence under similar naming conventions. Historical DNS logs and IP associations should be reviewed for potential lateral connections to other malicious domains. Given the absence of SSL and the use of a hosting provider frequently associated with abuse, network-level blocking of the IP 185.118.79.212 may mitigate residual risk. No additional brand-specific artifacts or phishing kits were identified in the available data.
