Legitimate domains, IPs, IPFS hashes, or IPNS names

https://onyx-trader.com
https://www.onyx-trader.com

Please explain why this content is legitimate

onyx-trader.com is a free, browser-based platform for trading exchange-listed
futures contracts (index and commodity futures) and prop-firm evaluations.
It is not a crypto/Web3 application, and we believe this listing is a false
positive.

Specifically, the site has:

  • No web3 provider integration of any kind: the site's served JavaScript never
    references window.ethereum and never calls eth_requestAccounts, eth_sign,
    personal_sign, eth_sendTransaction, signTypedData, or any other wallet RPC
    method — verifiable by inspecting the live site's assets
  • No wallet-connect functionality (no MetaMask, WalletConnect, wagmi, or
    ethers.js integration anywhere in the codebase)
  • No seed-phrase, private-key, or mnemonic entry fields
  • No token approvals, signing requests, or on-chain interactions
  • No cryptocurrency deposits or withdrawals
  • No impersonation of any established brand — "Onyx Trading" is its own
    futures-trading brand

We believe the listing was caused by brand confusion with an unrelated DeFi
project also named "Onyx," likely propagated via a SEAL-ISAC cross-listing
(ChainPatrol's own verdict for this domain is "Unknown"). We have filed a
parallel appeal with SEAL.

Verification:

We are happy to prove domain ownership via a DNS TXT record or an email from
an @onyx-trader.com address on request.

Is this a duplicate request?

  • I have checked the issues page and confirmed this is not a duplicate request
