EigenLayer's assessment for RD-F-081 — scored green on the v1.7.0 rubric. The evidence below is the curator's reasoning for this score.
Evidence summary #
No protocol exploit to score. Curator estimate 4/5: The October 2024 investor wallet event (off-chain) was handled with rapid coordination with CEXs and law enforcement; EigenLayer publicly confirmed no protocol vulnerability within days. The August 2025 EigenPods vulnerability was disclosed via Immunefi, patched same day with public technical forum post. Both events demonstrate a functioning response process despite no protocol exploit.
