exodus-dek[.]com

The domain exodus-dek.com was registered on 21 February 2026 through Gname.com Pte. Ltd. and resolves to the Cloudflare address 172.67.141.45, which is announced by AS13335 in the United States. DNS configuration lists the authoritative name servers expire1.gname-dns.com and expire2.gname-dns.com, and the domain’s mail exchange records point to mx.zoho.com (priority 10) and mx2.zoho.com (priority 20). An SSL certificate identified as “WE1” is present, but the HTTP response returned a 503 Service Unavailable code, and the site is currently reported as offline. The page title retrieved from the server is simply “EXODUS”, matching the declared brand target “Exodus”.

VirusTotal analysis shows that 13 of 95 scanning engines flagged the domain as malicious, and the site appears on a single public blocklist, with PhishDestroy confirming its block status. Gridinsoft assigned a trust rating of 0 out of 100, reinforcing the malicious assessment. The infrastructure is classified as a crypto‑scam that impersonates the Exodus brand, and the elevated risk level reflects the combination of brand targeting, low trust score, and vendor detections. No additional public intelligence such as Open Threat Exchange entries or Safe Browsing reports were observed.

Because the domain is already taken offline, immediate takedown is not required, but defenders should continue to block the IP address 172.67.141.45 and the domain name at DNS or proxy layers. Security teams should also update email filtering rules to recognize the Zoho MX hosts as legitimate for the domain, but remain vigilant for any future re‑registration that could reuse the same name servers or certificate. Continuous monitoring of the registrar Gname.com and the Cloudflare AS for new domains resembling the Exodus brand is recommended to pre‑empt recurrence.
