ethfoundation[.]icu
“Governing Realtime Ethereum | ETHGas Foundation”
Resumo das evidências
Analysis of the domain ethfoundation.icu indicates a confirmed brand impersonation operation targeting Ethereum, classified as a crypto scam. The domain was registered on March 12, 2026, through PDR Ltd. d/b/a PublicDomainRegistry.com and has since been flagged by multiple security vendors. Infrastructure analysis reveals the domain resolved to 188.114.96.3, a Cloudflare IP (AS13335) located in the US, with nameservers elaine.ns.cloudflare.com and owen.ns.cloudflare.com. The page title, 'Governing Realtime Ethereum | ETHGas Foundation,' explicitly references Ethereum and a fabricated entity, reinforcing its fraudulent intent.
Three of 94 security vendors on VirusTotal detected this domain as malicious, and it appears on four security blocklists, including PhishDestroy, MetaMask, ScamSniffer, and SEAL. No SSL certificate was observed, and the domain is currently offline. Technologies detected include Cloudflare and HTTP/3, suggesting the use of modern infrastructure to evade detection. The absence of an SSL certificate is notable, as it may have been a deliberate omission to avoid certificate transparency logs or an oversight during setup.
Defenders should treat this domain as high-risk due to its direct impersonation of Ethereum, confirmed crypto scam classification, and cross-vendor detection. While the domain is offline, monitoring for re-registration or changes in hosting is recommended. The combination of Cloudflare hosting, lack of SSL, and explicit brand misuse aligns with known patterns of short-lived phishing campaigns targeting cryptocurrency users. No further details about the specific scam mechanics or payload are available from the current evidence.
