Methodology
Version fees-v2
Figures are generated from a validated, versioned snapshot. A later correction creates a new snapshot without removing the previous record.
- Only sourced transfers marked confirmed or completed are included in ranked values and spending totals.
- Undisclosed fees are counted as recorded movements but are never assigned an estimated value.
- Recorded EUR values are used directly. Recent non-EUR fees may use the documented fees-v2 reference rates; historical non-EUR claims remain excluded until a dated EUR value is stored.
- Known net balance is calculated as known income minus known spending; positive values represent a surplus.
