Thirty counterparties, one evidence standard

What the matrix is made of
Two dossier fields are template text
Identical on all thirty, so they are stated once rather than thirty times.
Potential value to Fin — “Supports one or more of enterprise distribution, regulated access, treasury/liquidity, settlement connectivity or ecosystem credibility; contribution to revenue has not been established.”
Evidence status — “Presented by management or public-facing material; direct contracting, production status, financial contribution and legal responsibility require confirmation.”
