Summary
Dynascale Technologies
hosting datacenter colo cloud legacy
AS-DYNASCALE-LAX belongs to Dynascale Technologies, Inc., a Southern California data-centre, colocation, and cloud operator that grew out of Alchemy Communications — whose alchemy.net domain still shows up in the reverse DNS on its ranges.
What it's used for
- Colocation, dedicated servers, and cloud hosting out of Dynascale facilities in the Los Angeles / Irvine area, with the company also registered in Las Vegas, Nevada.
- Announces roughly 65,000 IPv4 addresses spread across several hundred mostly
/24prefixes, drawn from its ownDYNASCALE-*allocations (66.226.0.0/19,72.26.96.0/19,172.110.96.0/19,209.132.x,208.118.xand others).
Notable
- The fan-out of many
/24s is characteristic of a hosting provider that assigns small blocks to individual customers, rather than of an ISP handing out a subscriber pool. - Dynascale peers widely — Cogent, Level 3/Lumen, GTT, Zayo, NTT, Hurricane Electric and others all appear as neighbours, which is what you'd expect of a content-heavy hosting network buying diverse transit.
Interesting
- The
LAXin the handle is the airport code for Los Angeles, a common way for hosting companies to name a site-specific AS.

Classification and threat
Hosting Datacenter or cloud provider. Addresses are servers, not people.
Spamhaus DROP
Not on ASN-DROP The network as a whole is not listed.
No DROP prefixes None of its announced space is on the DROP prefix list.
Spamhaus DROP ("Don't Route Or Peer") lists space and networks run by, or hijacked for, spam and cybercrime operations: 431 networks and 1,768 prefixes, as published 2026-10-12. A short, high-confidence list, so a match is worth taking seriously, and absence from it says little on its own.
FBI IC3
No IC3 indicators Nothing from the FBI IC3 feed.
IC3 threat data is alpha. Absence of an indicator is not evidence of good behaviour, only of absence from this one feed.
