Galaxy Research states the basis for treating the sweep waves as one operator: waves 1 and 2 share funnel topology into a handful of collectors, the same P2WPKH destinations and the same mix of derivation paths, 27 hours apart, and that treating them as one operator is reasonable but rests on resemblance rather than proof. This is the attribution qualifier behind every same-operator total quoted in this archive.

This post is registered as evidence and has a locally held capture. The original remains the canonical publication.
