Drawn from Player Ops, Tech, and Compliance — the three functions where crypto-native operations meet regulator expectations.
What the pioneers shipped
Five workflows, on-chain integrity untouched.
Wallet ops triage
Categorises wallet-related issues, drafts response with chain-specific context.
On-chain anomaly detection
Watches transaction graphs for mixer/sanctions exposure, drafts the analyst note.
AML/sanctions screening
Hits external lists per chain, drafts evidence pack — analyst signs every action.
Crypto deposit support
Player questions on confirmations, gas, network selection — answered with audit trail.
Provably-fair audit summarizer
Drafts player-facing audit summaries from on-chain data — verifiable end-to-end.
“On-chain data is the source of truth. AI never touches it.”
Approach
Three weeks. Four chains. Audit trail untouched.
Discover
Mapped on-chain flows, wallet operations, and compliance perimeter per chain. Defined the trust boundary AI works inside, not across.
Build
Pioneers built first cuts. Compliance reviewed every prompt that handled wallet or transaction data.
Compliance audit
Three demos with Head of Compliance. Anything that risked the on-chain audit story was redesigned.
Compound
Skills shipped to internal marketplace; cross-chain wins instrument while keeping per-chain isolation.

Why it didn't go off the rails
On-chain is sacred. AI augments around it.
On-chain data immutable
Agents read transaction context, never modify. The chain is the truth.
AI augments, never replaces, audit trail
Provably-fair audits keep their original mechanism. AI summarises, doesn't substitute.
No key-handling automation
Hot/cold wallet operations stay fully manual. AI never sees a private key.
Jurisdiction-aware withdrawals
Sanctions/AML rules per jurisdiction. Same player, different chain — different rules apply.
