Digital Asset Market Surveillance Agent

Detects manipulation and conduct risk across fragmented on-chain and venue activity.

Reads market behavior across venues and chains as one record. It ties orders and fills to wallet flows and related accounts, then reconstructs wash trading, spoofing, insider coordination, or cross-venue marking as a replayable sequence of timestamped events.
