THE PATTERN LANGUAGE
A TAXONOMY, NOT A BLACK BOX Every wallet tells a story. Wallet Verify doesn’t just score risk — it recognizes behaviour . Behind every verdict is a vocabulary of named patterns, each an ownable signature in the language of on-chain forensics. Two families: The Cast — who a wallet is — and The Signatures — what happened .
