gu[.]exchanges[.]asia

The domain gu.exchanges.asia was registered on 21 February 2026 through Web Commerce Communications Limited dba WebNic.cc and is served from the IP address 104.21.80.1, which belongs to AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc. in the United States. The site presented a page titled “Gu Factory” and was classified as a wallet/seed phishing operation targeting users of the Arbitrum blockchain platform. SSL analysis shows the site used a Cloudflare TLS Issuing ECC CA 1 certificate, indicating standard Cloudflare TLS termination.

Reputation scoring from Gridinsoft assigned a trust score of 0 out of 100, reflecting extreme suspicion. The domain appears on two independent security blocklists—PhishDestroy and ScamSniffer—and has been flagged by two of ninety‑three VirusTotal security vendors, reinforcing its malicious reputation. Nameserver records point to ns100.webnic.cc and ns101.webnic.cc, consistent with the registrar’s infrastructure.

Current operational status is offline, limiting direct observation of the payload, but the combination of low trust score, blocklist listings, SSL provider, and the wallet/seed phishing label provides sufficient evidence for remediation. Defenders should block DNS resolution for gu.exchanges.asia, deny traffic to its hosting IP 104.21.80.1, and monitor for any related infrastructure that may reuse the same Cloudflare ASN or WebNic nameservers. Continuous threat‑intel feeds should be consulted for any re‑appearance of the domain or associated indicators of compromise.
