Compare crypto evidence before price narratives
Place up to four reviewed assets on the same six research axes. Coverage, hard stops, freshness, and exit boundaries remain visible without manufacturing one universal winner.

Conditional infrastructure thesis
Identity
Is the exact asset, chain, and contract route clear?
RAYToken identity
Canonical mint documentedDecision use
Match the full mint in wallet, venue, explorer, stake pool, and swap route. Reject ticker-only identification.
SHIBAsset identity
DocumentedDecision use
Match network, chain ID, address, and venue withdrawal network before every transfer.
TIAAsset identity
Native asset clear; bridges varyDecision use
Match chain ID, denom or denom trace, destination chain, bridge, wallet, and venue. Reject ticker-only identification.
Product / liveness
Is the relevant product or network operating and observable?
RAYProtocol activity
Active multi-product protocolDecision use
Measure product-specific volume, active liquidity, fees, retention, and competitive share rather than treating feature count as value.
SHIBEcosystem functionality
DocumentedDecision use
Treat product existence as an input, not proof that value flows to SHIB holders.
TIADA architecture
Differentiated and deployedDecision use
Credit the design only within its published assumptions; separately assess execution, settlement, sequencers, bridges, and storage.
Token demand
What creates asset-specific demand or value capture?
RAYRAY value capture
Buyback path exists; holder claim absentDecision use
Reconcile fee generation, conversion, RAY accumulation, custody, emissions, and treasury policy without calling buybacks dividends.
SHIBSHIB value capture
UnresolvedDecision use
Reject any thesis that substitutes ecosystem activity for a SHIB-specific demand mechanism.
TIAPaid blob demand
Must be measuredDecision use
Track paid blobs, unique durable users, fees in TIA and USD, retention, concentration, subsidies, and pricing over multiple periods.
Supply / incentives
Which issuance, fee, reward, or distribution path changes exposure?
RAYSupply and emissions
Maximum defined; emissions continueDecision use
Refresh total, circulating, reserve, treasury, staking, and annual emission figures before valuation.
SHIBCurrent staking yield
No current rewardsDecision use
Do not model passive income until the live interface and current detailed documentation confirm rewards.
TIAInflation
Lower, not zeroDecision use
Refresh current total supply and inflation. Compare issuance with actual fee demand and do not call nominal staking rewards real yield.
Control / security
Which authority, contract, governance, or security dependency remains?
RAYAdmin and upgrade control
Multisig controlled, not immutableDecision use
Verify current authorities, thresholds, timelocks, pending changes, config admins, and program hashes on-chain.
SHIBOperational exposure
High riskDecision use
Use official URLs, small test transfers, limited approvals, and a tested return path.
TIASecurity evidence
Audited components; residual risk remainsDecision use
Map every audit to the exact deployed version and integration. An audit list is not a guarantee against protocol, bridge, client, or operational failure.
Market / exit
Can the intended position enter, exit, and settle within written limits?
RAYMarket and custody
Must remain liveDecision use
Test the exact network round trip, then stress-quote the full intended position and preserve an independent exit route.
SHIBMarket execution
Verify liveDecision use
Check the actual pair and order size immediately before entry and exit.
TIAMarket and custody
Live layer must be refreshedDecision use
Test a minimal native round trip, then validate the full intended exit size and self-custody recovery path.
Resolve one material unknown per asset
Decode both mints, token programs, extensions, authorities, and maximum fee settings before swapping or providing liquidity.

The workspace preserves category differences and makes missing publication coverage explicit.
Review pages, Evidence Operations, JSON feeds, and this workspace share stable review IDs and current publication states.
More sources or a completed migration cannot average away failed identity, control, custody, liquidity, or exit evidence.
The result is a proof queue and route to deeper research, not a recommendation, point forecast, or personalized allocation.
