PANews reported on August 16 that Wu Blockchain analyst defioasis said on the X platform that according to the information provided by CoinDesk, 51 Eigen Labs employee addresses suspected to be related to the incident were found through on-chain reverse query. The basic method is to verify by claiming the amount of ETHEFI and ALT from the official airdrop contract (it is worth noting that the amount of ALT and REZ airdrops obtained by the suspected Eigen Labs employees investigated by the author is somewhat different from the CoinDesk investigation, but ETHERFI is basically corresponding). Among these 51 suspected Eigen Labs employee addresses: 46 addresses received ETHERFI airdrops, with a total of 487,933 ETHERFI, of which 19 addresses chose to (partially) sell or transfer to CEX after receiving the airdrop, with a sales rate of 41.3%; only 1 address chose to pledge, and the rest of the addresses continued to hold. 41 addresses received ALT airdrops, with a total of 1,964,838 ALT. 17 of them chose to sell (partially) or transfer to CEX after receiving the airdrops, with a sales rate of 41.5%; 13 addresses chose to stake, with a stake rate of 31.7%; the rest of the addresses continued to hold. 20 addresses received REZ airdrops, with a total of 1,335,090 REZ. 8 of them chose to sell (partially) or transfer to CEX after receiving the airdrops, with a sales rate of 40%; only 1 address chose to stake, and the rest of the addresses continued to hold.
Earlier yesterday, CoinDesk revealed that Eigen Labs provided employee wallet addresses to the EigenLayer ecosystem project to participate in token airdrops; Eigen Labs responded today that there is no evidence that employees have put pressure on other projects to make improper profits, and welcomes community reports.
