sushi-kta[.]top

Analysis of the domain sushi-kta.top indicates a confirmed crypto scam targeting users of the SushiSwap decentralized exchange platform. The domain was registered on July 15, 2025, through NameSilo, LLC, and resolved to the IP address 107.172.83.150, hosted on AS36352 (HostPapa) in the United States. The SSL certificate is classified as R11, a low-trust indicator often associated with malicious or hastily deployed infrastructure. The page title, 'Stake SUSHI | Sushi,' explicitly impersonates SushiSwap’s branding, aligning with the scam type labeled as a crypto scam in available intelligence.

Security vendor detections further substantiate the malicious classification. As of the latest assessment, 8 of 93 security vendors on VirusTotal flagged the domain, and it appears on four security blocklists, including PhishDestroy, Polkadot, Enkrypt, and Codeesura. Gridinsoft assigned a trust score of 0/100, reinforcing the elevated risk level. The domain is currently offline, though defenders should note that this status may change if the infrastructure is reactivated.

Defenders are advised to treat this domain as a confirmed threat vector for crypto-related fraud. Blocklist integration at the network and endpoint levels is recommended, particularly for organizations handling cryptocurrency transactions or decentralized finance (DeFi) interactions. Given the domain’s recent registration and alignment with known crypto scam patterns, monitoring for related domains registered through NameSilo or resolving to the same IP range (107.172.83.0/24) may help preemptively identify additional threats. The exact content of the phishing page remains unanalyzed, but the combination of brand impersonation, low-trust SSL, and vendor detections provides sufficient evidence for mitigation actions.
