Use voluntary disclosures, traceable sources, and careful attribution to research publicly shared addresses.

KOL Research Guides
A public name needs a public evidence trail.
These guides focus on voluntary disclosures, the source of address labels, and the difference between a technical record and a real-world identity claim. They are not instructions for exposing private individuals. A good entry preserves who made a claim, where it appeared, the address and network, and the purpose it actually described.
Read the public KOL guide for disclosure review and the labeling guide for ambiguous or conflicting attributions. Avoid expanding a narrow project or donation disclosure into a claim about complete personal holdings. The method leaves unknown identities unknown and makes correction part of the workflow.
