distribution-eigenlayer[.]xyz

The domain distribution-eigenlayer.xyz was registered on April 10 2026 through Dynadot LLC. DNS resolution points to IP 104.21.57.121, a Cloudflare, Inc. address located in Canada. The authoritative nameservers are coco.ns.cloudflare.com and vern.ns.cloudflare.com, and the site presents a valid SSL certificate issued by Google Trust Services under the WE1 chain. HTTP requests return a 200 status code, indicating an active web service.

Content hosted on the site mimics the branding of EigenLayer, a well‑known staking protocol, and the page title is deliberately set to “Google” to obscure the impersonation. The site promotes a staking‑related offering that aligns with known EigenLayer terminology, which is consistent with the reported “staking scam” classification. The use of a legitimate‑looking TLS certificate further enhances the illusion of authenticity.

Threat intelligence sources corroborate the malicious nature of the domain. VirusTotal records indicate that 3 out of 95 scanned security vendors flagged the domain, and the Gridinsoft trust score is 0 out of 100. The domain appears on three public blocklists and is explicitly listed by PhishDestroy, MetaMask, and SEAL. AlienVault OTX references the domain in a single pulse, providing additional confirmation of its association with fraudulent activity.

Defenders should treat distribution-eigenlayer.xyz as hostile and block it at the network perimeter, DNS resolver, and endpoint security layers. Continuous monitoring of requests to the IP address 104.21.57.121 is advised, as the attacker may shift hosting or employ additional Cloudflare‑proxied infrastructure. Users should be warned not to interact with any staking requests that reference EigenLayer from this domain, and any credentials supplied should be assumed compromised.
