web3-connect[.]org

The domain web3-connect.org was registered on 21 April 2026 through NameSilo, LLC. Within weeks of its creation it began appearing on multiple abuse‑blocking feeds; four independent blocklists (PhishDestroy, Polkadot, Enkrypt and Codeesura) have already listed it as malicious. VirusTotal reports that 13 of 91 scanned security engines flag the domain as suspicious, indicating a moderate level of consensus among automated scanners. No publicly available information on the underlying hosting provider, IP address, autonomous system number, SSL certificate details, or HTTP response codes has been published, limiting the ability to attribute the infrastructure to a specific operator.

Likewise, Safe Browsing status, Open Threat Exchange (OTX) entries, and page‑title metadata have not been disclosed, so defenders cannot rely on those vectors for early detection. The current risk assessment is high because the domain is actively leveraged in a phishing campaign targeting users of Web3‑related services, as inferred from the domain name and the rapid inclusion on several anti‑phishing feeds. Defensive teams should immediately add web3-connect.org to URL filtering rules, block it at perimeter firewalls, and incorporate the domain into endpoint web‑traffic monitoring policies.

Where possible, threat‑intel platforms should be queried for any newly observed IPs or TLS fingerprints associated with the domain, and analysts should monitor the four blocklists for updates that may reveal additional infrastructure details. Continuous review of VirusTotal submissions is recommended to capture any change in detection ratios, which could indicate modifications to the payload or hosting environment. Until more concrete hosting evidence emerges, a precautionary block and heightened user awareness alert remain the most effective mitigations.
