Protocol-impersonator domain registered (typosquat)

Evidence summary #

Marinade is a well-known Solana brand ($602M TVL, 5-year track record). Confirmed active impersonator domains: (1) staking-boost.com, (2) stake-boost.com, (3) rewards-marinade.finance -- all documented by PCRisk removal guide (last updated Dec 16 2025) as fraudulent Marinade impersonator sites designed to steal 12/24-word seed phrases. Domain rewards-marinade.finance directly incorporates the brand name. PCRisk update date: Dec 16 2025 -- approximately 5 months before assessment date (2026-05-16). Domains have been active beyond the strict 90-day taxonomy threshold window but represent a confirmed active phishing ecosystem. Delta from documented active date to assessment: approximately 150 days. Curator call: red given confirmed active impersonation (seed-phrase theft functionality, multiple domains, multiple variants). The well-known nature of the Marinade brand makes this a higher-risk impersonation surface.
