Four steps from raw registry data to a number you can defend.
- 01CollectRegistry and exchange data pulled from six public sources, snapshotted with a timestamp so every figure can be re-fetched.
- 02ReconcileRecords matched across registries and venues into one project view. Conflicts are flagged, not silently resolved.
- 03PriceFair values built from observable trades, with each input traced to the source it came from.
- 04PublishMethods and findings released openly and submitted for peer review, starting with AKWI 2026.
