- What the figures don’t show
- Onboarding proof does not show repeat Bitcoin spending after the first payment, and the video proofs were not independently checked.
- How sure we are
- High for displayed operator list; year taken from the stated March 2026 – 2027 window; video proofs not independently checked.Our confidence in reading the source — not a rating of whether the claim is true.
