Contributor paid to DPRK-cluster wallet

Cap (cUSD / stcUSD)'s assessment for RD-F-122 — scored not_assessed on the v1.7.0 rubric. The evidence below is the curator's reasoning for this score.

Evidence summary #

Cap Labs operates as a corporate entity (operating company in Panama per press coverage). Payroll is presumed off-chain. No on-chain payment streams to contributors are publicly identifiable. Per process-learnings for dev-identity-analyst: for off-chain payroll companies, mark NOT ASSESSED beyond the deployer unless on-chain payment streams exist. No on-chain contributor payment streams found. DPRK cluster linkage via payment routing is not assessable at OSINT tier for this protocol.
