★ Deployer wallet mixer-funded within 30 days
Orca's assessment for RD-F-124 — scored green on the v1.7.0 rubric. The evidence below is the curator's reasoning for this score.
Evidence summary #
No mixer funding of the Whirlpools deployer or upgrade authority observed. Tornado Cash is Ethereum-native with no Solana deployment; no analogous Solana mixer is linked to any Orca wallet. Protocol-level funding provenance: Solana Foundation grant (bootstrapping, publicly documented), followed by Sep 2021 $18M Series A from Coinbase Ventures, Polychain Capital, Jump Trading, and others — all institutional/CEX-traceable sources. No CTI report or on-chain trace (Chainalysis, TRM Labs, OFAC, or Solscan) links any Orca privileged address to a mixer withdrawal within 30 days of any deploy event. Applies across the Feb 2021 AMM v1 deploy and the Mar 2022 Whirlpools CLMM deploy.
