Almost Perfect Y Combinator Phishing Mail

Dear HN, I've just received what I would consider to be an almost perfectly crafted phishing mail. It says:

and the email was sent

with valid DKIM and SPF:

so the angle of Y-Combinator collaborating with GitHub appears legit. But - of course - that ycombinator.com/apply link actually uses unicode trickery to send you to a website where the "i" has been replaced with an "l". And there, it says:

  We use EIP-712 and Ethereum Attestation Service (EAS) to verify your wallet. During the process, you may see a standard withdrawal notification — this confirms your signature to record verification stamps on-chain.
  
  We guarantee that your assets remain completely secure.

which I guess is the phishing part where they steal your crypto.
