xn--moonshts-8e1d[.]net

On 22 July 2026 analysts observed the domain xn--moonshts-8e1d.net serving a page titled “Vote to List — Powered by Moonshot”. The domain was registered on 21 February 2026 through NiceNIC International Group Co., Limited and resolves to the IP address 104.21.15.254, which belongs to AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc. in the United States. DNS resolution uses the Cloudflare nameservers dean.ns.cloudflare.com and priscilla.ns.cloudflare.com, and the site was delivered over HTTP/3 protected by a valid Let’s Encrypt certificate (CN=E8). The page title explicitly references the Moonshot brand, and the intelligence categorises the activity as brand impersonation employing a Wallet Connect Abuse phishing kit.

VirusTotal recorded three detections out of ninety‑three scanners, and the domain appears on three external blocklists, with active blocking reported by PhishDestroy, MetaMask and SEAL. The hosting infrastructure is fully cloud‑based, and no additional content has been captured because the site is currently taken offline. The limited detection footprint indicates that the campaign may have been short‑lived or targeted. Defenders should add the domain and its associated IP address to network‑level deny lists, monitor for new punycode or IDN registrations that reference “Moonshot”, and enforce strict URL filtering for any Cloudflare‑hosted assets that reference the brand.

Continuous observation of the registrar NiceNIC and the Cloudflare nameserver set is recommended to catch future replicas. At present the primary unknowns are the exact payload delivered by the Wallet Connect Abuse kit and whether any credential harvesting succeeded before takedown. Until further forensic artefacts become available, the domain should be treated as elevated‑risk and blocked across all enterprise security controls.
