Scoring weights are governed, not trained. Risk categories are hierarchical: direct sanctions override behavioral signals. For compliance teams, this means every risk decision can be explained to a regulator with full methodology lineage — not just a number, but the governed reasoning that produced it.

Expand from 0 to 2 hops across the transaction graph. Each hop reduces exposure weight. Tier 1 regulated exchanges act as risk firewalls — exposure beyond KYC-enforced boundaries is not propagated. In practice, this determines whether an investor's wallet has indirect exposure to sanctioned entities — and at what distance that exposure becomes immaterial under your compliance policy.

Patterns are confidence-scored and diagnostic-only — they inform the analyst, not the risk score. Detection runs independently of scoring to prevent adversarial manipulation of the assessment. These patterns surface in your onboarding review as diagnostic signals — flagging wallets where the transaction structure suggests deliberate obfuscation, warranting manual review before approval.

Reports are WORM-enforced at the database level. Every output includes engine version, dataset snapshot, and cryptographic content hash. When an auditor asks for the risk assessment that cleared an investor eighteen months ago, the exact report — with its methodology version, data snapshot, and cryptographic seal — is retrievable and verifiable.
