snapshot-ethgasfoundation[.]app

On 23 July 2026 analysts observed that the domain snapshot-ethgasfoundation.app resolves to the Cloudflare‑owned address 188.114.97.3, located in the United States under ASN 13335. The domain was registered on 21 February 2026 through PDR Ltd. d/b/a PublicDomainRegistry.com and is served behind Cloudflare, as indicated by the presence of Cloudflare Browser Insights, HTTP/3 support, and the nameservers kami.ns.cloudflare.com and matteo.ns.cloudflare.com. The TLS certificate is issued by Google Trust Services under the WE1 label, confirming a valid HTTPS endpoint, but the web server returns HTTP 403, suggesting the page is intentionally hidden or restricted. VirusTotal has recorded detections from six of ninety‑three scanning engines, and the domain is listed on four independent security blocklists.

AlienVault OTX includes the domain in one threat‑intelligence pulse. Additional reputation services, including Gridinsoft, assign a trust score of zero out of one hundred, and the domain is actively blocked by PhishDestroy, MetaMask, ScamSniffer, and SEAL. The page title returned by the server is “Un instant…”, and the intelligence profile classifies the activity as an NFT scam. The available evidence confirms that the infrastructure is actively leveraged for malicious purposes, but the exact phishing payload or lure displayed to victims cannot be determined from the current data set.

Defenders should block network resolution to 188.114.97.3, enforce URL filtering for snapshot-ethgasfoundation.app, and monitor for related Cloudflare‑hosted domains that share the same nameservers or certificate issuer. Continuous re‑scanning with multi‑engine services is advised to capture any evolving payloads. Organizations using NFT platforms should raise awareness among users about unsolicited requests referencing the domain, and incident response teams should treat any interactions as compromised.
