Security Alert
Fortinet, Google, Kaspersky, Sophos flagged this site in external intelligence checks, indicating elevated compromise/scam exposure that requires immediate caution.
This website is a single-page marketing landing page branded as the Xaman self-custody wallet for the XRP Ledger and Xahau. Its main call to action is an "XRP airdrop" that visitors are invited to claim after completing "wallet verification". Around that offer it presents wallet security messaging, navigation to cards and a Pro tier, a newsletter sign-up, and footer links to privacy, terms and contact pages. Its apparent purpose is to steer crypto-wallet holders into a wallet-linked claim flow under a recognised wallet brand.
Scam/Impersonation Risk
Confirmed adverse reputation signals converge on this site. A major browser-protection service classifies it under the social-engineering threat category, and several leading security vendors independently flag it as malicious. These detections place the site on confirmed blacklists, and they are the decisive factor in this assessment. The homepage reinforces the concern. It announces "The Airdrop is Live" and offers to "Claim Your XRP Allocation with Confidence". It says the process "requires no additional steps beyond wallet verification", and it asserts "One claim per verified wallet" and eligibility for "all XRP holders". No eligibility criteria, official announcement, or link to an authoritative XRP Ledger source supports any of this. The wallet-verification step is the typical entry point for wallet-drainer and credential-harvesting schemes. The site also claims that "every line of code [is] rigorously audited", with no audit report to back it. The page borrows the credibility of an established wallet brand while the domain is a newly created promotional address. No automated wallet-connection or clipboard-manipulation behaviour was observed in testing, and no brand-impersonation or conflicting-identity finding was recorded. Even so, the combination of an unsupported giveaway, a verification gate, and confirmed third-party threat detections is a recognised pattern for crypto-asset fraud. Evidence:
- Homepage: the airdrop banner promises an XRP allocation after "wallet verification" and cites no official source, eligibility rules or announcement.
- Homepage: the "rigorously audited" security claim links to no audit report.
- Browser-behaviour testing: the page issued heavy external network traffic, including several POST and XHR requests to destinations outside the expected set, and logged 30 console errors across three runs.
- Domain provenance: registered 2026-10-04 (about 0.04 years, 16 days old), with 5 archive snapshots from 2026-10-04 to 2026-10-09 (1 year tracked), so no established history exists.
Regulatory Verification Notes
The footer references legal and contact pages (Privacy Statement, Terms of Service, Responsible disclosure, Contact) and credits XRPL Labs and a "© Xaman 2025" notice. The site gives no registered entity details, licence or registration number, or official operator attribution on the analysed page. The operator's real-world identity could not be independently connected to the Xaman brand it displays. The domain registration is also incomplete as to owner details. The airdrop offer, meanwhile, carries no legal terms, jurisdictional statement or eligibility conditions. No third-party broker or regulator-style record matched this site. Reputational concern here arises from threat-detection findings, not from any licensing database. Evidence:
- Homepage footer: legal and contact links are present, but no corporate registration or licensing information is shown.
- Registration: domain registered through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED, created 2026-10-04 and expiring 2027-10-04.
- Hosting: served from AS13335 (Cloudflare, Inc., US).
- Transport security: TLS certificate issued by YE1 (domain-validated only), valid to 2027-01-02. This confirms encryption, not operator identity.
What to Verify Next
Any airdrop claim should be checked against the official announcement channels of the XRP Ledger project and of the wallet's developer. Those channels should be reached by typing known addresses manually or through the official app, never through links on this site. The wallet developer's established website should be consulted to confirm whether this domain is an authorised property. Anyone who has already interacted with the wallet-verification step should review their wallet's connected-application permissions and revoke unfamiliar approvals. They should also consider moving funds to a freshly created wallet if a recovery phrase was entered anywhere. Official support and contact channels should be confirmed independently before any information is shared. The legal status of any claimed operator should be confirmed with the relevant corporate registry. Evidence:
- Homepage: the airdrop call to action offers no source link to confirm legitimacy.
- Homepage: the wallet-verification prompt is the browser-behaviour flag recorded for this page.
- Footer: the referenced operator name (XRPL Labs) is displayed without any verifiable corporate details.
Summary Verdict
The site is assessed at the most severe level of the trust scale, with elevated risk and a clearly cautionary posture. Confirmed threat detections by independent security providers, a brand-borrowing airdrop pitch, and a very recently created domain together outweigh the basic technical hygiene the site shows. That hygiene consists of a valid encryption certificate and a functioning, consistently loading page. The site cannot be treated as a legitimate extension of the wallet brand it displays. The evidence points to a high-risk, likely abusive promotional site targeting cryptocurrency holders.
Infrastructure Integrity
The site sits behind Cloudflare's CDN and WAF. All four observed addresses, IPv4 and IPv6, are Cloudflare edge servers in the United States. The true origin host is not exposed, so independent verification of the underlying hosting is not possible. Cloudflare's presence is a neutral-to-mild mitigating factor at most. It protects availability, but it does not vouch for the content behind it. The same service is widely used by both legitimate and malicious sites, and here it cannot offset the threat detections.
Closing Assessment
The site should not be used for any interaction beyond reading, and no wallet should be connected, no recovery phrase or credential entered, and no verification or claim step started. Anyone who has already engaged should act promptly to secure their assets and report the page to the relevant wallet provider.

About this assessment
A trust score summarises the evidence TrustSniffer could collect about xrpl-promotion.live at assessment time. 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.
