Each fiduciary event is written to a canonical record and hashed. Every hash incorporates the previous hash for that account,
forming a per-account chain in which no earlier entry can be altered without invalidating everything after it.
On a fixed schedule, hashes from across the platform are gathered into a single Merkle tree and only the root — 32 bytes — is
published to the Bitcoin blockchain. We chose Bitcoin for its neutrality rather than its features: it has done one job since 2009,
and no one credibly argues about who controls it.
Verification is arithmetic, not trust. Re-hash the document, walk its inclusion proof up the tree, and confirm you arrive at the
root recorded in that block.
Three things worth stating plainly: no cryptocurrency changes hands in the client relationship; no client data touches the public
record; only a fingerprint is published.
