electrum-vtc[.]org

On 25 July 2026 analysts observed that the domain electrum-vtc.org is currently offline but retains indicators of a wallet/seed phishing campaign targeting Discord users. The site was registered on 1 June 2025 through NameSilo, LLC and resolves to the IP address 62.182.80.15, which is assigned to AS30860 Virtual Systems LLC in Ukraine. No TLS certificate was presented, indicating that the service was delivered over plain HTTP. The page title returned by the server is “Electrum VTC – Lightweight Vertcoin Wallet,” suggesting the operator attempted to lure victims into providing Vertcoin wallet seeds.

The domain has been flagged by PhishDestroy and appears on a single security blocklist. VirusTotal records show that two of ninety‑five scanners flagged the domain, and Gridinsoft assigns a trust score of zero out of one hundred, reinforcing the malicious assessment. Nameservers ns13.v-sys.org and ns14.v-sys.org are in use, consistent with the hosting provider identified in the ASN data. The domain is listed as impersonating Discord, although the page title references Vertcoin, indicating a possible hybrid social‑engineering vector.

At present, the actual page content has not been captured, leaving the specifics of the credential‑capture mechanism unknown. Defenders should immediately block the domain and its resolved IP address at perimeter defenses, update URL filtering rules, and monitor for any resurgence of the hosting infrastructure. Additional telemetry should be gathered from any remaining DNS queries or passive DNS feeds to detect related subdomains or future re‑registration attempts. Continuous observation of the associated ASN and nameserver set is recommended to pre‑empt re‑use of the same hosting environment for new phishing campaigns.
