Wallet risk review
Decide whether it's safe to pay an address: the flows in plain words, the red flags with their transactions, and a clear pay / don't pay / test-first call.

What to send
Inputs the requester should include.
- The chain and the exact address(es) or transaction hashes
- The question behind it: pay or not, report or not, or understand an incident
- The time window that matters
- What you already know about the counterparty
Steps
How the work gets done.
- Pin the scope. Chain, addresses, window and the decision the answer feeds. No starting addresses, no trace: ask once.
- Collect facts with tools. Explorer pages or RPC calls only. Record every transaction hash used; never type an amount from memory.
- Describe the flows. Who funded it and when, how it holds funds, where money leaves, which contracts it touches. Keep facts and interpretations in separate lists.
- Check the red flags. Split payments under a limit, money in and straight out, many small senders pooled, fresh accounts emptied at once, mixers, bridges, sanctioned or ransomware-linked addresses.
- Weigh exposure honestly. Say how many hops each risky link is. Direct counterparties matter; two or three hops away mostly don't.
- Run the independent risk check where available and treat it as one signal, not a verdict.
- Rate the risk low / medium / high with the two or three reasons that drive it, and what would change the rating.
- Recommend an action: pay, don't pay, pay a small test amount first, or ask the counterparty for something specific. No legal conclusions.
Checks
What a finished answer must pass before it's delivered.
- Every red flag cites the transactions that show it
- Labels are verified or marked unlabelled; ownership claims state method and confidence
- Hop distance stated for every risky link
- The answer lists what wasn't checked (other chains, offchain data)
