Methodology

How scoring works

For each category:

component = severity_value
          * min(1, effective_share / threshold)

score = min(100,
        top_component
        + 0.25 * sum(other components))

effective_share counts direct exposure at full weight and indirect exposure decayed by hop distance, so a mixer two hops away scores lower than one transacted with directly.

Risk bands

75+	severe	Block and escalate. Direct or heavy illicit exposure.
50+	high	Enhanced due diligence required before processing.
25+	medium	Review. Non-trivial exposure to risky counterparties.
0+	low	No material illicit exposure found in the traced window.
