Data we plan to use
These are categories of data, not agreements. No licenses or provider relationships are described or implied here.

| Stock and ETF market data | Prices and history for crypto-related stocks and ETFs | Not connected |
| Public company filings | Business model, risk factors, operating results | Not connected |
| Fund flow and structure data | ETF flows, fees, assets under management | Not connected; depends on licensing |
| On-chain and protocol data | Network and protocol activity | Not connected; later phase |
Rules every figure will follow
When real data is added, the intended rules are:
- Each figure shows its source, a timestamp, and whether it is delayed.
- Market status is shown honestly, including when no data is available.
- If a source fails, the site shows that data is unavailable. It does not fill the gap with invented or estimated values.
- Providers’ licensing, attribution, and display terms will be checked and followed before data is shown.
- Historical figures state the window and adjustments used (see research standards).
- Demonstration data is always labeled as such and kept visibly separate from real data.
Provider registry
A provider registry will list every data source in use, with its attribution and terms. It is currently empty.
| Provider | Data | Terms and attribution |

| No providers are connected. | ||
