Contributor paid to DPRK-cluster wallet

Veda (BoringVault)'s assessment for RD-F-122 — scored gray on the v1.7.0 rubric. The evidence below is the curator's reasoning for this score.

Evidence summary #

No on-chain payment streams to contributor wallets identified. Veda Labs is a US-incorporated company with off-chain payroll; personal contributor wallet addresses are unknown. Per process-learnings: 'F122 (contributor payments -> DPRK cluster) cannot be meaningfully assessed at OSINT tier for companies with off-chain payroll. Mark NOT ASSESSED for contributors beyond the deployer unless on-chain payment streams exist.' The deployer address (0x0463e60c) itself shows no DPRK-cluster proximity within available OSINT.
