ethereumstatus.com was registered on March 11 2026 through Ultahost, Inc. and is hosted on an Ultahost server in Germany (AS214036) using the IP address 159.100.6.19. The domain resolves to four Ultahost name servers (ns1‑ns4.ultahost.com) and serves content via LiteSpeed with HTTP/3 support, but it does not present a TLS certificate. The site’s page title reads “Ethereum Community Hub,” and the domain is explicitly listed as impersonating the Ethereum brand, fitting the classification of a crypto‑scam.

As of the report date the domain has been taken offline, yet it remains listed on three security blocklists and is actively blocked by PhishDestroy, MetaMask and SEAL. VirusTotal analysis shows five of ninety‑four scanners flagged the domain, reinforcing the malicious assessment. The combination of recent registration, lack of encryption, and use of a reputable hosting provider to host a brand‑impersonating crypto page aligns with known tactics of fraud actors seeking to harvest credentials or lure users into illicit transactions.

Defenders should add 159.100.6.19 and the associated name‑server set to deny‑list rules, maintain monitoring for newly registered domains that share the Ultahost registrar or similar LiteSpeed/HTTP3 footprints, and enforce strict URL verification for any Ethereum‑related links. Continuous threat‑intel feeds should be consulted for any resurgence of the domain or for variants that reuse the same infrastructure.
