  • Transcribed by hand on 18 September 2026 from the researcher's follow-up to an earlier post on the DredSoftLabs front company, which the scraper cannot read because Medium answers it with a bot check and both archive services refused automated fetches the same day. The post reports that the Dredsoft-Labs GitHub organisation and its Telegram account were renamed JSoft Labs and that a further front company, MetaMint Studio, had appeared on LinkedIn, credits Travis Simcox for the latter, and pivots from one loader string to 116 repositories, nine delivery hostnames and three command-and-control addresses. The three addresses, two of which the post gives with port 4558 and one with port 8353, and the three Vercel hosts are the values carried here; the loader paths on shared JSON-hosting services are recorded above rather than as indicators. Values are re-fanged from the post's hxxp and bracketed-dot form and nothing else is altered.
