§ 01 — Profile
On-chain investigator and AML compliance analyst tracing illicit fund flows across EVM chains.
Conducting fund tracing, KYT/transaction monitoring, and financial crime investigations since 2024 — applying FATF, OFAC, and FinCEN frameworks to real casework.
§ 02 — Operating Principles
Assert only what the data supports.
CONFIRMED, PROBABLE, UNCONFIRMED — never collapsed into one.
Slow movement beats no movement.
A logged blocker is progress. An abandoned thread is not.
The exit matters as much as the source.
Following funds to a cash-out endpoint is not enough — the regulatory posture of that endpoint is part of the finding.
Automation leaves fingerprints.
21,000 gas, every transaction, every time. Determinism is a signature.
Label what you don't know.
An open thread documented is more honest than a conclusion forced.
