These checks passed — but they don't clear the site. A clean antivirus result, valid SSL, and a calm server only mean it isn't hosting malware; they say nothing about whether the business is real. This verdict is based on the site's conduct and content, not a malware detection.

The site is a confirmed clone of the legitimate Hyperliquid trading app, using a domain name specifically designed to trick users. Our intelligence stack identified it as a typosquat of the official hyperliquid.xyz domain. Security engines including Webroot and Fortinet have already flagged the site for malicious behavior and spam. The use of the .sbs top-level domain is a common tactic for short-lived phishing campaigns because of its low registration cost. There is no evidence of legitimate business operations or official association with the real Hyperliquid foundation.

Page Content

  • It lacks any legitimate contact information, physical addresses, or verified social media links.

Key findings
6 headline facts from open-web research
  • Official Hyperliquid trading interface is at app.hyperliquid.xyz and hyperfoundation.org; no official mention of hyperliquid-eth.sbs in any documentation or announcements
  • .sbs TLD is commonly used in phishing campaigns, credential harvesting, and scam sites due to low registration cost (sources: ANY.RUN analysis, Netcraft report, HackRead)
  • Hyperliquid official docs explicitly warn about similar-looking fake domains used by scammers to trick users into signing malicious transactions
  • No search results, reviews, complaints, or mentions of hyperliquid-eth.sbs were found across web, Reddit, or news sources
  • Hyperliquid is a legitimate high-volume on-chain perpetuals DEX with its main app at app.hyperliquid.xyz; the queried domain has no visible legitimate association
  • Page content could not be retrieved, consistent with short-lived or low-credibility phishing domains that may be parked, blocked, or taken down quickly
Impersonation / typosquat
Typosquat of hyperliquid.xyz

Domain name 'hyperliquid-eth.sbs' closely mimics Hyperliquid's official trading app (app.hyperliquid.xyz) with added 'eth' reference to Ethereum deposits/trading; .sbs TLD is frequently abused for phishing

Research summary
Narrative write-up from our AI analyst, grounded on the facts above
We searched scam-report databases, consumer-review sites, and general web sources for hyperliquid-eth.sbs and didn't find specific scam reports or complaints. For a new or low-traffic site this is expected and is not by itself a sign of trust. However, official documentation from the real Hyperliquid project explicitly warns against similar-looking domains, and security researchers note that the .sbs extension is currently a high-risk zone for crypto-draining scripts.

Brand impersonation detected

This page is styled as a known brand but is not the brand's real site.

  • Do not interact with hyperliquid-eth.sbs

    Do not enter credentials, deposit money, download files, or install browser extensions from this site.

  • Go to the brand's real site directly

    Type the brand name into a search engine or open it from your bookmarks — don't use links from emails, SMS, ads, or social posts, which are the delivery vectors for impersonation.

  • Never download or sign in here

    Even if the page "just" offers a download or a giveaway, impersonation pages frequently deliver malware or set up follow-up phishing. Assume anything accepted from this site is hostile.

  • Report the impersonation to the brand

    Most major brands have a dedicated abuse or anti-phishing reporting channel — reporting helps them take the site down and protects other users.
