Assurance and audit
Public evidence should distinguish design from qualification
BTG's engineering programme includes internal tests and extensive specifications. These are useful evidence, but tests written and run by the implementing team do not automatically amount to independent certification of the full product.
Status vocabulary
| Label | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Proposed | Product or feature has a defined concept, but delivery is not proven |
| Implemented locally | Source and runnable artifacts exist in a specified environment |
| Internally qualified | Specified tests passed in a controlled internal environment |
| Independently verified | An unrelated assessor reproduced evidence within a documented scope |
| Commercially operating | Real lawful customer activity, rights and settlement are reconciled |
| Regulated market authorized | A verifiable regulatory status permits the precise regulated activity |
Known open qualification areas in the October 2026 programme
Independent enrolled and isolated FarmNodes; owner-signed production ENTITY admission; full component interoperability; unfamiliar-task invention benchmarks and failure retention; end-to-end Bridge consent and restricted-platform access; lawful title to commercial assets; independent privacy/cyber assessment; verified cash collection and contributor disbursement; and explicit authorization for any securities marketplace function.
A recorded Granby River NIKI candidate failed 256 of 65,536 cases, and recorded repair attempts did not qualify it. Such failures belong in the audit trail rather than being hidden by passing unrelated tests.
Publication rule
Each independently publishable audit item needs a scope, date, assessor, test method, input constraints, exact result, limitations, evidence location and release approval. Redact private infrastructure addresses, security bypass details, unreleased code, personal information and confidential contracts.
Current public status
This site does not claim independent full-system certification or real-money exchange readiness. Validated summaries and formal audit evidence will be added only after review and authorized release.
