Polymarket's assessment for RD-F-125 — scored green on the v1.7.0 rubric. The evidence below is the curator's reasoning for this score.
Evidence summary #
No evidence of DPRK/Lazarus proximity within 3 hops of any Polymarket deployer or known admin address. Polygonscan label check: no DPRK/Lazarus designation on Deployer 1 or Deployer 2 or their immediate funding sources. OSINT: 'Polymarket Shayne Coplan DPRK OR Lazarus OR North Korea' search returns zero relevant hits. FBI investigation (2024) was US election-betting compliance; DOJ/CFTC dropped all investigations 2025-07-15. Lazarus Group entry on OFAC SDN confirmed (https://sanctionssearch.ofac.treas.gov/Details.aspx?id=27307) but no Polymarket address appears proximate. Confidence medium: 3-hop traversal not achievable without Chainalysis/Arkham API.
