Classification confidence 75%. | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | What this site appears to be | A promotional page for an NFT storage and preservation service using IPFS, Filecoin, smart contracts, and an onchain endowment to provide long-term access to NFT metadata and media. | ## Evidence status and limitations Evidence completeness: UNKNOWN - Module-level completeness metadata is unavailable for this legacy report. ## At a glance The checks that decide most of this verdict. | Check | Result | Status | | --- | --- | --- | | Malware engines | None flagged it (VirusTotal) | Clear | | Google Safe Browsing | Not listed (Google) | Clear | | Abuse reports on the host | 0 reports (AbuseIPDB; shared hosting inflates this count) | Noted | | Domain age | 5.4 years old (Registered history) | Clear | | Web archive | Archived since 2021 (531 snapshots) | Clear | | Certificate | Encrypted connection (Issued by R12) | Noted | ## The page as captured No screenshot is retained for this report. ## Key findings - Automated classification: Not Scam. - Domain age: 3 to 10 years (registration continuity). - Public web-archive history exists since 2021. - No flags from the reputation services TrustSniffer consulted at assessment time. ## Full analysis ### Overview nft.storage is a promotional NFT storage and preservation service that presents decentralized, long-term protection for NFT metadata and media through IPFS, Filecoin, smart contracts, and an onchain endowment, apparently funded through one-time service fees and community support. ### Scam/Impersonation Risk No contradictions were observed. The site’s stated purpose is consistent across its promotional content: preserving NFT offchain data through verifiable decentralized storage rather than soliciting unexplained investments or imitating another identified brand. Its established domain continuity, clean external reputation, and absence of phishing, malware, hidden-form, or wallet-drainer indicators support a legitimate assessment. - The homepage describes NFT preservation through IPFS, Filecoin, smart contracts, and an onchain endowment. - The observed page contained no phishing indicators, hidden forms, sensitive forms, wallet-drainer activity, or brand-impersonation finding. - The domain was registered on 2021-03-03 and is approximately 5.42 years old. - The archive records 531 snapshots spanning 2021–2026, covering 6 tracked years. ### Regulatory Verification Notes The site presents documentation, support, legal pages, transparent one-time pricing language, and a utility-focused storage model. No license or registration number is presented in the supplied page evidence, so formal regulatory status is not established by the site; this is a verification point rather than evidence of misconduct. External reputation checks were clean, and no broker-related match was identified. - The homepage presents documentation, support, pricing, and legal-page pathways. - Registration is through Cloudflare, Inc.; the recorded expiry date is 2027-03-03. - The site is served from AS16509, Amazon.com, Inc. infrastructure. - TLS uses issuer R12 with DV validation and is valid through 2026-08-22. ### What to Verify Next For institutional onboarding, confirm the service’s contracting entity, applicable terms, and any jurisdiction-specific obligations through the site’s legal and documentation pages. Where required by policy, independently confirm the organization’s support and contact channels before entering into material commercial arrangements. - The homepage directs users to documentation and a launch-application path. - The site describes one-time service pricing and community-support funding. - The available evidence does not establish a license number or regulated-authority registration. ### Summary Verdict The website presents as a legitimate, established, high-trust digital-asset storage service with sustained operational continuity and no observed scam or impersonation contradictions. Normal interaction, including account login and standard use, is appropriate. ### Infrastructure Integrity Cloudflare CDN/WAF protection fronts the site, while observed edge addresses resolve to AS16509 Amazon infrastructure; no origin candidate was observed. This protective architecture reduces direct origin exposure and is a mitigating infrastructure signal, not independent proof of legitimacy. ### Closing Assessment Normal account access and standard use are appropriate, subject to routine organizational onboarding and transaction controls. _Written analysis generated 2026-08-01 by the TrustSniffer Analysis Engine from the evidence in this report._ ## What the analysis found No rule findings contributed to this verdict. ## Identity verification | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Status | UNVERIFIED | | Identity score | 30/100 | | Identity verification confidence | 25% | - No on-site identity signals detected _Identity verification measures whether the site can be independently connected to a real-world brand or person.

It is a starting point for your own judgement, not a guarantee: a high score means the signals were consistent with a legitimately operated site, a low or critical score means several risk patterns were present. TrustSniffer assesses a website from the evidence it can collect at a point in time: domain registration and age, hosting and certificate, the content the site served, and third-party reputation feeds. A score is a summary of that evidence, not a guarantee and not a legal finding. There is no human rating and no user review in it. A site can change after it is assessed. ## Related on TrustSniffer - [inmedia.com.br risk report](https://trustsniffer.com/report/inmedia.com.br) (High Trust, 100/100) - [lecanardenchaine.fr risk report](https://trustsniffer.com/report/lecanardenchaine.fr) (High Trust, 90/100) - [farmnews.com.br risk report](https://trustsniffer.com/report/farmnews.com.br) (High Trust, 100/100) - [ipayroll.co.nz risk report](https://trustsniffer.com/report/ipayroll.co.nz) (High Trust, 100/100) - [paypal.com risk report](https://trustsniffer.com/report/paypal.com) (High Trust, 90/100) - [levelupstore.co.za risk report](https://trustsniffer.com/report/levelupstore.co.za) (High Trust, 100/100) - [jumpermedia.co risk report](https://trustsniffer.com/report/jumpermedia.co) (High Trust, 100/100) - [crypto.ru risk report](https://trustsniffer.com/report/crypto.ru) (High Trust, 100/100) - [fundiconnect.co.za risk report](https://trustsniffer.com/report/fundiconnect.co.za) (High Trust, 100/100) - [weblogica.mx risk report](https://trustsniffer.com/report/weblogica.mx) (High Trust, 100/100) - [Every website and wallet TrustSniffer has assessed](https://trustsniffer.com/directory) - [Other domains assessed as legitimate](https://trustsniffer.com/directory/verified-legit) - [Check another website](https://trustsniffer.com/web-intelligence) - [Check a crypto wallet address](https://trustsniffer.com/on-chain-risk) - [The TrustSniffer Risk Index](https://trustsniffer.com/stats) ## Guides - [Stablecoin Freezes, Sep 29, 2026: 9 Wallets](https://trustsniffer.com/blog/stablecoin-freeze-report-2026-09-29) - [Stablecoin Freezes, Sep 28, 2026: 24 Wallets](https://trustsniffer.com/blog/stablecoin-freeze-report-2026-09-28) - [Stablecoin Freezes, Sep 27, 2026: 3 Wallets](https://trustsniffer.com/blog/stablecoin-freeze-report-2026-09-27) --- *Source: [TrustSniffer](https://trustsniffer.com/report/nft.storage) — independent automated trust & fraud analysis.
