ATTENTION TO EVERYBODY!! It has come to my concern that YOUR SITE might be used in a CRYPTO SCAM (people are MAKING MONEY off of YOUR WORK)!!! I have decided to start an 'investigation', to see how many of these scams there are. Stay safe! We're all in this, together.
In fact, tell me your site here, and I'll add it to a list that directly says it's NOT related to crypto. I'll make something out of it, like a widget, or a webring.
I saw something similar going around a week or so ago, where some no-name online gambling site was using a proxy link to a bunch of prominent indieweb pages, then displaying that site as [original site name] dot [scammy gambling site name] dot com.
No idea if crypto scammers are doing the same thing, but folks investigating the prior thing found that they're using similar spoofing techniques that you see on, say, fake gmail login screens and stuff.

Also! Good thing is, most are making nothing. $0. Just... stay safe! Don't let people steal your stuff!!!
