Stored registration data identifies NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED (IANA 3765) as the registrar. PhishDestroy maintains separate NiceNIC abuse-report research; registrar association is contextual and is not an independent detection for this domain.
Analysis of desktopapp-installer.online indicates a confirmed crypto‑related brand impersonation campaign targeting Bitcoin users. The domain was registered on March 09, 2026 through NiceNIC International Group Co., Limited and is hosted on Amazon’s AS16509 network, resolving to IP 216.198.79.1 located in the United States. DNS resolution is serviced by fiona.ns.cloudflare.com and rayden.ns.cloudflare.com, both Cloudflare name servers. The site employed Vercel as its web‑application platform and advertised HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS), yet no TLS certificate was presented, leaving the connection unencrypted.
The page title returned by the server, "AQUA Wallet — The Bitcoin Desktop Superapp," directly references Bitcoin, confirming the impersonation intent. Gridinsoft assigned a trust score of 0 out of 100, and the domain appears on a single security blocklist. Two of ninety‑four VirusTotal scanners flagged the host as malicious, and PhishDestroy has actively blocked the domain. The risk level is elevated, though the site is currently taken offline.
Defenders should continue to monitor the IP address 216.198.79.1 for any re‑use, enforce blocklisting of the domain and associated IP in perimeter defenses, and consider adding the observed host to internal threat‑intel feeds. Given the lack of TLS, any future activation of the site would expose users to credential harvesting or malware delivery without encryption. Continuous observation of the registrar NiceNIC and the Cloudflare name servers is advised to detect any re‑registration attempts.

Registrar accreditation and DNS abuse obligations
For this gTLD, the registrar above operates under an ICANN accreditation agreement. The links below provide the official fee schedule and current DNS abuse compliance guidance.
Accreditation is a contract, not a safety certification.
RAA §3.18 establishes abuse-contact and handling requirements. This report can document stored outbound notices and later technical observations; it does not by itself establish receipt, investigation, remediation, or contractual non-compliance.
Saved certificate metadata. Certificate dates without a timezone are shown as stored. Transport encryption does not establish that the site is trustworthy.

Availability, content, DNS and registration are independent evidence layers. NXDOMAIN, an unreachable origin or missing content alone does not prove registrar action. A registrar or provider is credited only when a direct technical marker identifies that actor. Report causality is shown separately.
