blender-io[.]net

This domain, blender-io.net, was observed hosting a site with the page title “BITCOIN BLENDER, BTC BLENDER BTC - BLENDER.IO”. The title indicates an attempt to lure victims into a cryptocurrency mixing service, a known pattern for crypto‑draining scams. The domain resolves to the IP address 172.67.182.210, which belongs to AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc. and is geolocated in the United States. The authoritative name servers are carol.ns.cloudflare.com and kirk.ns.cloudflare.com, confirming the use of Cloudflare’s DNS infrastructure. Registration data shows the domain was created on 21 June 2021 through NiceNIC International Group Co., Limited.

No SSL certificate was presented when the site was reachable, and the current HTTP status is offline, suggesting the operators have taken the site down or are rotating infrastructure. Reputation services assign extremely low trust scores: Scamadviser rates it 1 / 100, and Gridinsoft 0 / 100, both indicating a high likelihood of malicious intent. Threat‑intel feeds have flagged the domain on at least one security blocklist, and PhishDestroy has listed it as blocked. VirusTotal analysis recorded four detections out of ninety‑five scanners, reinforcing the malicious classification.

The site explicitly impersonates the Bitcoin brand and is categorized as a crypto scam. Open questions remain regarding the exact payload delivered to victims, the presence of any additional command‑and‑control servers, and whether the site ever served functional mixing tools or merely collected cryptocurrency addresses. Defenders should continue to block the domain at network perimeter and DNS layers, monitor for any resurgence of the same IP or name‑server pair, and update endpoint detection rules with the observed page‑title string. Ongoing observation of Cloudflare‑hosted assets linked to this domain is recommended, as threat actors frequently recycle such infrastructure for new campaigns.
