Commit timezone consistent with stated geography
dYdX v4 (dYdX Chain)'s assessment for RD-F-119 — scored green on the v1.7.0 rubric. The evidence below is the curator's reasoning for this score.
Evidence summary #
dYdX Labs is stated to be based in San Francisco, CA (US Pacific timezone). GitHub v4-chain repo has 179+ contributors over past year with commit activity visible through 2026-05-14. Available contributor handle evidence (Kefancao, davidli1997, ledigang, anmolagrawal345 etc.) is consistent with a mixed US/international engineering team. No published third-party analysis flags anomalous DPRK-timezone (UTC+9) commit patterns. Low-confidence green: full commit-hour distribution analysis not performed; no adverse signals found in available data.
