Contributor paid to DPRK-cluster wallet
EigenLayer's assessment for RD-F-122 — scored not_assessed on the v1.7.0 rubric. The evidence below is the curator's reasoning for this score.
Evidence summary #
Cannot meaningfully assess at OSINT tier. Eigen Labs uses off-chain payroll (87 employees as of March 2026); on-chain payment streams from the Eigen Labs treasury to individual contributor wallets are not publicly traceable in a way that enables 3-hop analysis to DPRK-labeled cluster. OSINT search for 'EigenLayer DPRK Lazarus developer' found zero results connecting team members to DPRK cluster payments. However, absence of on-chain payroll visibility means contributor wallet routing cannot be positively cleared. Per process-learnings.md guidance: mark NOT ASSESSED for off-chain payroll contributors beyond what OSINT can confirm.

Methodology #
Determine whether protocol payments to any contributor wallet have an on-chain path ≤3 hops to a known DPRK-labeled cluster.
