COLLECTION / PROVENANCE
EVER COLLECTED. CURRENTLY OWNED. NEVER CONFUSED.
Discovery, ownership, transfer, race history and correction are distinct facts joined by stable catalog identity.
APPEND-ONLY HISTORY
OWNERSHIP SHOULD LEAVE A TRAIL.
- 01
DISCOVERED
First authoritative acquisition event.
- 02
ISSUED
A dated Pink Slip snapshot is created.
- 03
OWNED
Current owner and custody state remain explicit.
- 04
TRANSFERRED
Ownership changes without erasing prior state.
- 05
CORRECTED
A new correction record preserves the trail.
STABLE CATALOG
THE IDENTITY OUTLIVES THE VIEW.
A model, issued item and ownership snapshot carry separate stable identifiers so corrections do not rewrite history.
THREE COUNTS
DISCOVERED IS NOT OWNED.
Discovery records what entered the account. Current ownership records what remains. Lifetime acquisition preserves the complete history.
PINK SLIP
A DATED OWNERSHIP SNAPSHOT.
A Pink Slip records the asset and owner at issuance. It is not a duplicate item and does not replace the current authoritative owner record.
INTERNAL PROVENANCE
APPEND-ONLY, WITH PRIVACY BOUNDARIES.
Transfers and corrections remain auditable while public display follows approved privacy levels.
RARITY INDEX
SCARCITY LANGUAGE, NOT VALUE.
Issue-time and live-adjusted rarity views may explain distribution using clearly labeled formulas. Neither predicts performance, liquidity or price.
NO EXTERNAL CLAIM
A RECORD DOES NOT NEED A FINANCIAL STORY.
Alpha 1.2 uses internal provenance. It creates no NFT, blockchain, external-wallet, investment or guaranteed-value claim.
