Overview

Clawdberg is a Zoidberg-inspired AI assistant registered on Base with A2A and MCP capabilities. It is operated by "San Clemente" (@3615crypto), a Luxembourg-based Web3 marketing professional who works with Aleph.im. The agent shows signs of a real, thoughtful registration by a legitimate operator, but several issues hold it back from a green rating.

• Scamadviser: Trust score 71/100 for the domain

Concerns

1. Fake IPFS image hash — The image URL uses a clearly fabricated IPFS CID (QmXn6y6y6y...). This is sloppy for an otherwise professional registration.
2. A2A discovery path — Standard .well-known/agent-card.json path returns 404; only custom path works.
3. Zero ETH balance — Owner wallet is empty, suggesting the agent may not be actively funded.
4. No reputation history — Zero on-chain feedback from any source.
5. Broad capability claims — Claims 7 capabilities including email management and Twitter integration, but no evidence these work.

Positive Signals

1. Real, identifiable operator with years of Web3 experience
2. Legitimate business entity behind the domain
3. MCP server is actually running and responsive
4. A2A card serves valid, detailed registration data
5. Creative and thoughtful agent concept (not a copy-paste template)
6. Active on-chain history (78 transactions)

Verdict

Clawdberg is operated by a legitimate Web3 professional with a real business presence. The services are partially functional, and the registration shows genuine effort. However, the fake IPFS image hash, empty wallet, and unverifiable capability claims warrant caution. This is likely a genuine project in early/experimental stages rather than anything malicious.

Rating: 🟡 Yellow — Legitimate operator, but needs polish and verification of claimed capabilities.
