Auditing the custody discipline
the custody audit
The review pass unique to crypto: grading the account against its custody plan - was the float capped, were the caps held through the quiet stretches, did the cold-storage split hold, were the transfers deliberate? The exposure ledger (lesson 2) supplies the data; this audit reads it against the plan, binary per the platform's witness standard, and its findings are about risk taken, not returns made.
This lesson is part of the advanced modules.
Modules 6 to 8 are included with a paid account. The definitional summary above is the whole of this page until then.
