kraken-pc[.]com[.]cn

The domain kraken-pc.com.cn was registered on June 22, 2026 through 北京新网数码信息技术有限公司 and is currently offline. DNS resolution points to IP address 47.86.107.202, which belongs to ASN 45102 operated by Alibaba (US) Technology Co., Ltd. and is geolocated in Hong Kong. The authoritative nameservers listed are ns1.myhostadmin.net, ns2.myhostadmin.net, ns5.west.cn, and ns6.west.cn. The site presented a TLS certificate issued by Let’s Encrypt under the YR2 profile, indicating the use of a free, automated certificate authority.

The page title retrieved from the site reads "Kraken Desktop — Kraken交易所官网电脑版下载," directly referencing the cryptocurrency exchange Kraken and suggesting a desktop client download page. The domain is classified as a brand impersonation campaign targeting Kraken, and it has been added to three security blocklists: PhishDestroy, MetaMask, and SEAL. VirusTotal analysis shows that six of ninety‑one scanners flagged the domain, providing additional confirmation of malicious intent.

While the site’s content has not been captured in detail, the combination of brand‑specific page title, blocklist listings, and multiple vendor detections supports a high confidence assessment that the domain was used to deceive Kraken users. Defenders should continue to block the domain at network perimeter devices, update threat‑intel feeds with the observed indicators, and monitor for any re‑registration or similar naming patterns that could be employed in future impersonation attempts. The current offline status limits immediate active threat, but the infrastructure footprint remains observable and should be tracked for potential reuse.
