Unlike competing DaaS platforms that levy a 15–25% commission on stolen funds, Quark Lab advertises a flat-fee model: a one-time license of $5,000 grants the buyer backend source code, a frontend interface, smart contract components, and access to a private community of alleged 200+ users. A monthly optional donation of $100 is described as a development contribution. This no-commission structure is presented as a competitive differentiator against platforms such as Inferno Drainer (15–20% cut) and Angel Drainer (20% cut). The toolkit is marketed across Telegram channels (@quark_drainer, @quarkdrainer) and multiple English- and Russian-language cybercrime forums including crdpro.org, crdweb.cc, crdworld.biz, and carder.market.

Primary chain coverage includes all EVM-compatible networks (Ethereum, BNB Chain, Polygon, Arbitrum, Optimism, Base, Avalanche, Fantom), Solana, TON, TRON, and XRP. Compatible wallets span MetaMask, Trust Wallet, Coinbase Wallet, Binance Wallet (EVM); Phantom, Solflare, Exodus (Solana); Tonkeeper, MyTonWallet (TON); TronLink (TRON); and Xaman (XRP). Asset extraction methods documented across forum advertisements include: Transfer, Approve, Permit (ERC-2612), Permit2 (Uniswap), Seaport 1.5, SetApprovalForAll, Blur and X2Y2 marketplace signatures, Smart Contract calls, Claim, Multicall, and Swap. The toolkit allegedly bypasses transaction simulation tools including WalletGuard, Pocket Universe, and Blockaid's own detection layer. Smart contracts deployed by affiliates are described as self-sustaining with no expiration, making post-deployment revocation difficult. The package includes 400+ pre-built phishing landing pages optimized for mobile and desktop, including airdrop impersonation pages targeting newly launched blockchain projects. Blockaid's research specifically identified Quark Lab as producing airdrop landing pages designed to impersonate new chain launches, exploiting the high-attention windows surrounding mainnet events. Real-time victim notifications are delivered directly to the affiliate's Telegram account via a built-in bot.","heading":"Technical Capabilities and Supported Chains","severity":"critical","sources":[{"credibility":2,"name":"How Wallet Drainers Exploit New Blockchain Launches — Blockaid Blog","type":"research","url":"https://www.blockaid.io/blog/how-wallet-drainers-exploit-new-blockchain-launches"},{"credibility":3,"name":"Quark Drainer advertisement — crdweb.cc (July 2026)","type":"community_report","url":"https://www.crdweb.cc/threads/1-crypto-drainer-quark-drainer-evm-sol-trx-ton-xrp-nft-private-script.12807/"},{"credibility":3,"name":"Quark Drainer early advertisement — ewebdiscussion.com (November 2023)","type":"community_report","url":"https://www.ewebdiscussion.com/threads/quark-drainer-seaport-blur-x2y2-fix-metamask-permit-2-smart-contract.211478/"}]},{"content":"Security firm Blockaid, in its blog post analyzing how wallet drainers exploit new blockchain launches, described Quark Lab as 'the most prolific drainer operation observed in this dataset.' The firm noted Quark operates across Telegram and cybercrime forums and offers a comprehensive criminal toolkit encompassing cross-platform infostealers for Windows and macOS, drainers covering more than 70 blockchains and 480 wallets, and ready-made phishing templates. Blockaid specifically highlighted Quark's ability to support EVM, Solana, TON, and Tron chains as demonstrating significant engineering capability. This designation as the most active drainer in Blockaid's tracked dataset places Quark Lab above better-known prior platforms such as Inferno Drainer and Angel Drainer in terms of current operational scale, though total theft attributable specifically to Quark Drainer affiliates has not been publicly quantified by a Tier 1 or Tier 2 source. The broader DaaS ecosystem accounted for an estimated $1.93 billion in losses in the first half of 2025 according to PhishDestroy research.","heading":"Quark Lab as Most Prolific Drainer Operation (Blockaid Finding)","severity":"critical","sources":[{"credibility":2,"name":"How Wallet Drainers Exploit New Blockchain Launches — Blockaid Blog","type":"research","url":"https://www.blockaid.io/blog/how-wallet-drainers-exploit-new-blockchain-launches"},{"credibility":2,"name":"Anatomy of a Crypto Drainer: How $1.93B Vanished in 6 Months — PhishDestroy","type":"research","url":"https://phishdestroy.io/crypto-drainer-anatomy"}]},{"content":"In addition to the wallet draining component, Quark Lab also offers a product called Quark Stealer, a cross-platform infostealer targeting both Windows and macOS systems. Intel 471 documented that in April 2024 the actor operating as QuarkLab introduced a Malware-as-a-Service offering that included both a drainer and an infostealer capable of extracting Keychain passwords, browser data, and cryptocurrency wallet credentials from macOS machines. This offering was priced at $3,000 per month at the time of Intel 471's reporting. KELA Cyber's 2025 report on the rise of macOS infostealers identified Quark Stealer as one of two featured case studies, noting that underground market activity for macOS-targeting infostealers peaked in 2025. The dual product line — combining a wallet drainer with an infostealer — positions Quark Lab as a full-spectrum credential and crypto theft platform, distinguishing it from single-product competitors.","heading":"Quark Stealer — Companion Infostealer Component","severity":"critical","sources":[{"credibility":2,"name":"macOS Is Increasingly Targeted by Threat Actors — Intel 471","type":"research","url":"https://www.intel471.com/blog/macos-is-increasingly-targeted-by-threat-actors"},{"credibility":2,"name":"The Rise of macOS Infostealers: 2025 in Review — KELA Cyber","type":"research","url":"https://www.kelacyber.com/resources/research/the-rise-of-macos-infostealers-2025-in-review/"}]},{"content":"Quark Drainer is distributed via a network of Telegram channels and cybercrime forums.

Primary web presences have included quarkdrainer.cc, quarklab.cc, and quarklab.app, with documentation hosted on quarklab.gitbook.io. These domains are subject to periodic change. The toolkit is sold exclusively on an access-controlled basis requiring license verification, which the operator claims limits distribution to vetted buyers.

According to security research, wallet drainer phishing losses across the broader ecosystem reached approximately $494 million in 2024 (Scam Sniffer) before falling to approximately $84 million in 2025 — an 83% decline attributed to improved detection and the takedown of predecessor platforms. However, Blockaid's H1 2026 report recorded $1.1 billion in total on-chain exploit losses across 212 incidents, indicating that theft activity has rebounded significantly. The DaaS market generally operates on affiliate models where platform operators earn 5–25% commissions on stolen funds; Quark's flat-fee model is an outlier. Predecessor platforms that Quark Drainer has outlasted include Inferno Drainer (shut down November 2023, re-emerged 2024), Angel Drainer (shut down March 2024), and Pink Drainer (retired May 2024).

The Telegram contact handles @quarkdev and @quarkdrainer have been used in forum advertisements. No arrests, indictments, or OFAC sanctions specifically naming Quark Lab or its operators have been located. The platform's use of Telegram for distribution, closed-access licensing, and anonymized cryptocurrency transactions makes attribution difficult. Intel 471 tracked the actor as 'QuarkLab' in its underground market monitoring beginning in April 2024 but did not publish a real-world identity attribution. The operator has maintained consistent branding across multiple domains (quarkdrainer.cc, quarklab.cc, quarklab.app) and documentation platforms (gitbook.io), suggesting a single persistent operator or small team.","heading":"Operator Identity and Attribution","severity":"medium","sources":[{"credibility":2,"name":"macOS Is Increasingly Targeted by Threat Actors — Intel 471","type":"research","url":"https://www.intel471.com/blog/macos-is-increasingly-targeted-by-threat-actors"},{"credibility":3,"name":"Quark Drainer official website","type":"official","url":"https://quarkdrainer.cc/"}]},{"content":"Quark Drainer targets retail cryptocurrency users who interact with phishing pages impersonating legitimate decentralized applications, airdrop claim portals, NFT minting sites, exchange interfaces, and newly launched blockchain projects. The toolkit's priority drainage order — targeting ETH, USDT, USDC, BNB, DAI, SOL, XRP, SHIBA, TRX first — indicates a focus on liquid, high-value assets. Mobile users are specifically targeted through cross-device optimized templates. The use of wallet approval patterns (Permit, Permit2, Approve, SetApprovalForAll) means victims may unknowingly sign transactions that grant the drainer smart contract unlimited spending authority on their wallets without an immediate visible fund transfer. The autonomous smart contracts deployed have no expiration, meaning wallets that granted approvals remain at risk even after the phishing site is taken down. Users of MetaMask, Trust Wallet, Phantom, and WalletConnect-compatible wallets face the widest exposure given Quark's coverage of these connection protocols.","heading":"Victim Risk Profile","severity":"critical","sources":[{"credibility":2,"name":"How Wallet Drainers Exploit New Blockchain Launches — Blockaid Blog","type":"research","url":"https://www.blockaid.io/blog/how-wallet-drainers-exploit-new-blockchain-launches"},{"credibility":3,"name":"Quark Drainer advertisement — crdweb.cc (July 2026)","type":"community_report","url":"https://www.crdweb.cc/threads/1-crypto-drainer-quark-drainer-evm-sol-trx-ton-xrp-nft-private-script.12807/"},{"credibility":2,"name":"Drainer-as-a-Service (DaaS) — Ledger Academy","type":"research","url":"https://www.ledger.com/academy/glossary/drainer-as-a-service-daas"}]}],"sources_used":[{"credibility":2,"name":"How Wallet Drainers Exploit New Blockchain Launches — Blockaid Blog","type":"research","url":"https://www.blockaid.io/blog/how-wallet-drainers-exploit-new-blockchain-launches"},{"credibility":2,"name":"macOS Is Increasingly Targeted by Threat Actors — Intel 471","type":"research","url":"https://www.intel471.com/blog/macos-is-increasingly-targeted-by-threat-actors"},{"credibility":2,"name":"The Rise of macOS Infostealers: 2025 in Review — KELA Cyber","type":"research","url":"https://www.kelacyber.com/resources/research/the-rise-of-macos-infostealers-2025-in-review/"},{"credibility":2,"name":"Crypto Security Losses Hit $1.1B in H1 2026: Blockaid Report — crypto.news","type":"news_article","url":"https://crypto.news/crypto-security-losses-hit-1-1b-in-h1-2026-blockaid-report/"},{"credibility":2,"name":"Wallet Drainer Phishing Losses Fall to $84M in 2025, Down 83% — CryptoNews","type":"news_article","url":"https://cryptonews.com/news/wallet-drainer-phishing-losses-fall-to-84m-in-2025-down-83/"},{"credibility":2,"name":"Anatomy of a Crypto Drainer: How $1.93B Vanished in 6 Months — PhishDestroy","type":"research","url":"https://phishdestroy.io/crypto-drainer-anatomy"},{"credibility":2,"name":"Rise in Drainer-as-a-Service Attacks Lead to High-Profile Breaches — SecurityBrief Asia","type":"news_article","url":"https://securitybrief.asia/story/rise-in-drainer-as-a-service-attacks-lead-to-high-profile-breaches"},{"credibility":2,"name":"Drainer-as-a-Service (DaaS) — Ledger Academy","type":"research","url":"https://www.ledger.com/academy/glossary/drainer-as-a-service-daas"},{"credibility":2,"name":"Scam Sniffer 2024: Web3 Phishing Attacks — Wallet Drainers Drain $494 Million","type":"research","url":"https://defihacklabs.substack.com/p/scam-sniffer-2024-web3-phishing-attacks"},{"credibility":3,"name":"Quark Drainer advertisement — crdweb.cc (July 2026)","type":"community_report","url":"https://www.crdweb.cc/threads/1-crypto-drainer-quark-drainer-evm-sol-trx-ton-xrp-nft-private-script.12807/"},{"credibility":3,"name":"Quark Drainer advertisement — crdworld.biz","type":"community_report","url":"https://www.crdworld.biz/threads/1-crypto-drainer-quark-drainer-evm-sol-trx-ton-xrp-nft-private-script.28774/"},{"credibility":3,"name":"Quark Drainer early advertisement — ewebdiscussion.com (November 2023)","type":"community_report","url":"https://www.ewebdiscussion.com/threads/quark-drainer-seaport-blur-x2y2-fix-metamask-permit-2-smart-contract.211478/"},{"credibility":3,"name":"Quark Drainer advertisement — crdpro.org","type":"community_report","url":"https://crdpro.org/threads/quark-drainer-evm-sol-trx-ton-nft-private-script-1-crypto-drainer.64514/"},{"credibility":3,"name":"Quark Drainer advertisement — carder.market","type":"community_report","url":"https://carder.market/threads/quark-drainer-evm-sol-trx-ton-nft-private-script-1-crypto-drainer.167149/"},{"credibility":3,"name":"Quark Lab GitBook documentation index","type":"official","url":"https://quarklab.gitbook.io/quark-lab"},{"credibility":3,"name":"Quark Drainer official website (quarkdrainer.cc)","type":"official","url":"https://quarkdrainer.cc/"},{"credibility":2,"name":"Crypto Wallet Drainers — Group-IB Knowledge Hub","type":"research","url":"https://www.group-ib.com/resources/knowledge-hub/crypto-wallet-drainers/"},{"credibility":1,"name":"Unmasking the Shadow Economy: DaaS Phishing on Ethereum — ACM IMC 2025","type":"research","url":"https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/3730567.3764476"},{"credibility":2,"name":"State of Drainers Vol. 1 — Security Alliance","type":"research","url":"https://www.securityalliance.org/news/2025-10-drainers-vol-1"}],"summary":"Quark Drainer is a commercially distributed Drainer-as-a-Service (DaaS) toolkit operated under the brand Quark Lab.

The page's factual backbone (Quark Lab's identity, pricing model, chain/wallet coverage, and the Blockaid 'most prolific' designation) holds up well. The decisive issue is claim_findings[16]: the page tells readers Quark bypasses three named security tools, including Blockaid's own detection layer, and cites Blockaid's blog for this — but that article never makes the claim, the WalletGuard+Pocket Universe combination is documented elsewhere as an Angel Drainer capability, and even the vendor's own marketing only claims two of the three bypasses. Attributing a false defensive-tool-bypass claim to the tool vendor's own research is worse than an ordinary miscitation because a reader could reasonably conclude a working protection is compromised and stop using it; the reviewer's high-priority coverage gap on this exact point is well-founded and is treated as the primary driver of this verdict. Two further disputed items are real but lower-stakes: claim_findings[47] misdates Angel Drainer's shutdown as March 2024 when contemporaneous reporting (Forklog, CryptoTimes) places it in July 2024, and claim_findings[42] presents an inferred cause ("improved detection and takedown of predecessor platforms") for the 83% phishing-loss decline that the cited reporting instead attributes to market-cycle correlation and a shift to lower-value targets — inference dressed as sourced fact. A related item, claim_findings[43], cites an accurate $1.1B/212-incident figure but implies it reflects a rebound in drainer-specific theft when the source describes broader protocol exploits unrelated to wallet drainers; this was rated partially_supported rather than disputed and is a conflation/framing issue rather than a fabricated number. On the positive side, claim_findings[64] confirms the page's named-operator list (Security Alliance's Inferno/Rublevka/Eleven/Vanilla) is accurate and the page does not overreach into unsupported drainer-lineage claims, unlike sibling pages in this batch. Reviewer confidence (0.75) is reasonably high and there are no link_rot or stale-citation findings, so no additional penalty is warranted on those grounds, but the high-priority security-tool gap keeps the delta toward the upper end of the minor-issues band rather than the low end.anchoranchored

Two further disputed items are real but lower-stakes: claim_findings[47] misdates Angel Drainer's shutdown as March 2024 when contemporaneous reporting (Forklog, CryptoTimes) places it in July 2024, and claim_findings[42] presents an inferred cause (\"improved detection and takedown of predecessor platforms\") for the 83% phishing-loss decline that the cited reporting instead attributes to market-cycle correlation and a shift to lower-value targets — inference dressed as sourced fact. A related item, claim_findings[43], cites an accurate $1.1B/212-incident figure but implies it reflects a rebound in drainer-specific theft when the source describes broader protocol exploits unrelated to wallet drainers; this was rated partially_supported rather than disputed and is a conflation/framing issue rather than a fabricated number. On the positive side, claim_findings[64] confirms the page's named-operator list (Security Alliance's Inferno/Rublevka/Eleven/Vanilla) is accurate and the page does not overreach into unsupported drainer-lineage claims, unlike sibling pages in this batch. Reviewer confidence (0.75) is reasonably high and there are no link_rot or stale-citation findings, so no additional penalty is warranted on those grounds, but the high-priority security-tool gap keeps the delta toward the upper end of the minor-issues band rather than the low end.","score_delta":-12,"sequence_num":3,"submission_content_hash":null,"submission_id":null,"submission_kind":null,"submission_valence":null,"v":1}Verify offline (run on your own machine)python -m src.verify_decision adf3e399-db5d-479b-845a-51917c900816
How verification works. The “Row integrity” check above is computed in your browser — your machine recomputes the SHA-256 of the canonical bytes and compares against the stored hash. No avoid.net server can fake that check. The “full verify” link goes one level deeper: your browser fetches the on-chain transaction from a Solana RPC node and confirms the same hash is in the memo. If you don’t want to trust either avoid.net or the public RPC, run the CLI verifier on your own machine —
