bittrade-ai[.]net

The domain bittrade-ai.net was created on February 21 2026 and is currently taken offline. It resolves to 172.67.211.10, an address owned by Cloudflare (AS13335) located in the United States. Authoritative nameservers are clarissa.ns.cloudflare.com and rick.ns.cloudflare.com, indicating the use of Cloudflare’s DNS service. No TLS certificate was observed, and HTTP requests return no content because the site is offline, so transport‑level security cannot be assessed.

The page title previously reported as “BitTrade AI - Official Platform | AI Trading 2025 | Over 10,000 Reviews” suggests a financial‑oriented lure, and the domain is explicitly listed as impersonating the brand Argent. VirusTotal records show that one of ninety‑three scanning engines flagged the domain, and the domain appears on a single public blocklist, where it is listed by PhishDestroy. The registrar information points to PDR Ltd. d/b/a PublicDomainRegistry.com. Gridinsoft assigned a trust score of 0 out of 100, indicating an extremely low reputation.

The limited telemetry—single vendor flag, single blocklist entry, and a zero trust score—suggests a low‑visibility but potentially malicious campaign aimed at brand‑based credential harvesting. Because the site is offline, active payload analysis is not possible, leaving the exact phishing workflow and any malicious payloads unconfirmed. Defenders should proactively block the domain and its associated IP address at perimeter and DNS layers, monitor for other domains registered with the same nameservers or registrar that reference Argent or similar financial terminology, and incorporate the domain hash into threat‑intel feeds. Continuous re‑scanning of the IP address is advised, as Cloudflare hosting may be reused for future campaigns.
