hedera-researcher[.]vercel[.]app

The domain hedera-researcher.vercel.app is currently active and was registered on February 21, 2026 through Tucows Domains Inc. DNS resolution points to IP 64.29.17.67, which is hosted in the United States under ASN 16509 (Amazon.com, Inc.). The site presents a valid SSL certificate issued by Google Trust Services / WR1 and enforces HSTS, indicating a typical Vercel deployment. The page title returned by HTTP 200 is "OpenLab Network - Decentralized Scientific Research Platform," which does not match any known legitimate brand and is likely used to lend credibility. Google Safe Browsing flags the domain for SOCIAL_ENGINEERING, and VirusTotal reports that 2 of 93 security vendors have flagged it. The domain is listed on one public blocklist, receives a Gridinsoft trust score of 0/100, and is actively blocked by MetaMask, PhishDestroy, and SEAL. Intelligence classifies the activity as a brand impersonation targeting the generic "across" brand and associates it with an Airdrop Scam phishing kit. No additional technical artifacts such as malicious scripts or credential‑stealing forms have been disclosed, so the exact content and user‑interaction vectors remain uncertain. Defenders should continue to block the domain at network perimeter and endpoint layers, monitor for any related DNS or HTTP traffic, and update detection rules to include the observed indicators: domain name, resolved IP, SSL issuer, and Safe Browsing classification. Given the high risk rating and active blocking by multiple tools, further investigation is advised if any internal users have interacted with the site.
