Digital Asset Claims On Chain Data Pipeline
Before any analysis begins, ledger data is pulled into a normalised structure so that transactions across different chains can be compared on the same terms.
Stages Of Ingestion And Normalisation
Collection
Blocks, transactions, receipts and contract events are collected for the chains and periods relevant to the instruction.
Normalisation
Values, decimals, timestamps and address formats are converted to a single internal representation with the original preserved alongside.
Reconciliation
Each imported record is checked against a second independent source, and any divergence is recorded rather than averaged away.
Handling Reorganisations And Gaps
Chain reorganisations, failed transactions and pending states are retained with their status so that a transaction that never settled is not read as a transfer that occurred.
Where a range of blocks could not be retrieved, the gap is recorded as a gap and carried into the report rather than closed by inference.
Limitations
The pipeline can only reflect what a chain publishes. Off-chain movement inside a custodial service leaves no ledger record and is treated as unobserved unless a document supplies it.
