Bullish by default?
The Bullski Crypto Presale Clone. Its Community Became the Victims. A near-identical copy of IceBull appeared online, collected cryptocurrency from buyers and then became unreachable.

What Happened?
Bullski was not merely inspired by IceBull. It was a clone of the original project. The website copied IceBull's visual identity, structure, presentation and wider presale concept, while using a closely related name that could easily create confusion.
The hero section, the typography, the animations, the colour palette, the roadmap, the tokenomics graphics, the whitepaper structure — even the wording used throughout the website closely resembled the original.
Only one thing appeared different: the name. Bullski had adopted a title remarkably similar to IceBull, changing just enough characters that an unsuspecting investor could easily mistake one for the other.
The Deception
To someone discovering Bullski through advertising, Telegram or a search result, there was little reason to immediately suspect anything was wrong. That is what made the deception effective. The victims were not careless investors ignoring obvious warnings. Many were ordinary crypto users interacting with a professionally presented website.

The original project behind the concept is IceBull. A new domain alone does not prove anything. But in this case, Bullski appeared in 2026 with a website and identity copied from a project using a domain established more than two decades earlier.
Official domain: www.icebull.com
Domain history: Registered since 2005
SolidProof audit score: 77.42
Payments: Crypto + Visa/Mastercard (KYC-verified)

Payments: Crypto-only (ETH, BNB, USDT — no KYC)
Status: Website Unreachable
Community Alert
As the Bullski website became unavailable, worried messages began appearing inside its Telegram community. These were not critics attacking the project from outside. They were Bullski buyers and community members themselves.
"I made multiple ETH payments through the official Bullski website with my MetaMask wallet. The transactions were successful on-chain, but only one purchase appears in my Bullski dashboard. The other payments and tokens are missing."
"The website is not responding. Any issue?"
"the site is not working"
"The end"
"So did we all get rugged before the campaign event began?? The Bullski site is down! Things look grim."
"they got us in the second phase… just a few thousand"
The community was not part of the deception. The community was the target of it.
Website Down
The Bullski website is now reported as unreachable. During an earlier investigation, attempts to access Bullski produced an SSL Handshake Failed error. Cloudflare remained operational. The user's browser connection was functioning. The failure occurred at the Bullski host.
The Token Supply Red Flag
The blockchain exposed one of the clearest warning signs. Bullski advertised a total supply of 120 billion tokens. Yet analysis of the smart contract showed approximately 360 billion tokens under the control of the contract creator — three times the advertised supply.
This creates obvious concerns around token dilution, centralised control, potential selling pressure, accuracy of advertised tokenomics, and whether buyers were given the complete picture.
Blockchain records are particularly valuable in investigations like this because marketing pages can disappear. On-chain data does not.
Audit Comparison
Both projects underwent assessments by blockchain auditing company SolidProof.
An "Audited" badge should never end the research process. Read the audit. Check the score. Review the findings. Then compare those findings with what the project claims publicly.
Following the Funds
Bullski presented itself as a Web3 presale and allowed users to connect crypto wallets directly to its website. But transaction analysis raised additional concerns.
Payments appeared to move through infrastructure associated with a non-KYC cryptocurrency exchange, followed by movement into privacy-focused assets.
Investigators were able to trace what appeared to be an ultimate receiving wallet. That address has intentionally not been published. Revealing it could simply encourage whoever controls the wallet to move the funds, destroying an important source of continuing evidence.
Why the Clone Worked
The sophistication of the Bullski clone is exactly what made its community vulnerable. Bullski did not need to invent a convincing cryptocurrency project from scratch. It copied one.

Bullski Victims
Bullski community members were victims of the clone, not participants in it. Many users believed they were interacting with a genuine cryptocurrency presale. They connected wallets. They transferred ETH. They followed Telegram announcements. They waited for tokens to appear.
This website exists to help those users understand what happened and to prevent others from falling into the same trap. If you need help or want to share your experience, contact us at [email protected].

How to Spot the Next Clone
The Bullski case demonstrates how little visual appearance now tells investors about legitimacy. Before participating in any Web3 presale:
Was it created recently? Compare domain age to the project's claimed history.
Does the supply match what the website advertises?
How much control does one wallet retain?
Do not rely solely on an "Audited" badge.
Never trust links sent privately through Telegram.
Understand where your cryptocurrency is actually going.
If two projects appear almost identical, establish which one existed first.
FAQ
Bullski was a cryptocurrency presale that cloned the original IceBull project's website, presentation and wider concept while operating under a similar name.
No. IceBull is the original project. Bullski appeared later using a domain registered in 2026.
Bullski's community has reported that the website is unreachable. Earlier investigations had also documented SSL and origin-host failures.
At least one community member reported making multiple successful ETH payments while only one corresponding purchase appeared inside the Bullski dashboard.
Bullski advertised 120 billion tokens, while blockchain analysis showed approximately 360 billion tokens controlled by the contract creator.
Yes. Within this investigation, Bullski is the clone and IceBull is the original project.
No. Bullski community members are presented here as victims of the deception who believed they were participating in a genuine cryptocurrency presale.
The original IceBull project is available at www.icebull.com.

Conclusion
Bullski succeeded because it looked convincing. It copied a real project. It used a similar name. It reproduced the appearance of a functioning cryptocurrency presale. And vulnerable users trusted what they saw.
Bullski was the clone. IceBull was the original. The Bullski community became the victims.
