birbcoin[.]org

Analysis of birbcoin.org indicates the site was used for a fake cryptocurrency airdrop campaign. The domain was registered on 21 February 2026 through NiceNIC International Group Co., Limited and resolves to the Cloudflare‑hosted address 172.67.180.139, which belongs to AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc. in the United States. DNS is served by the Cloudflare nameservers guy.ns.cloudflare.com and may.ns.cloudflare.com, and the TLS certificate is issued by Google Trust Services under the WE1 root, confirming that the site leveraged legitimate SSL infrastructure to increase credibility. An HTTP request returned a 403 status code before the site was taken offline, and the page title observed was “Birb Website | Airdrop,” matching the declared scam type of a fake airdrop.

The infrastructure was identified as Cloudflare, consistent with the IP and nameserver data. Threat intelligence shows the domain appears on four security blocklists, including PhishDestroy, MetaMask, ScamSniffer, and SEAL, and ten of ninety‑five VirusTotal scanners flagged it as malicious. The campaign employed an “Airdrop Scam” phishing kit, suggesting a template designed to harvest credentials or wallet information. Current status is offline, but the domain remains registered and could be re‑activated.

Defenders should continue to block the domain at network perimeter and DNS layers, monitor for any re‑registration or resurrection of the host, and correlate any internal alerts that reference the observed IP address or the Cloudflare nameservers. Because the SSL certificate is valid and the site used a common cloud provider, static URL or certificate pinning may be ineffective; focus on reputation‑based filtering and indicator‑of‑compromise (IOC) matching. Further investigation is needed to obtain the exact page content and any payloads delivered before takedown, as those details are not presently available.
