Sensitivity — what would change this verdict
- Improved transaction coverage could materially change activity-based interpretation and increase confidence.
- Off-chain context would be particularly valuable here, the detected structural patterns raise interpretive ambiguity that on-chain data alone cannot resolve.
- The dormancy-reactivation pattern warrants direct inquiry, understanding what triggered resumed activity would substantially clarify the current behavioral picture.
