KETJU Research
For compliance

A one-page summary for compliance review


What it is

Ketju Research publishes protocol research for financial professionals and sells a subscription terminal built on it. Every protocol memo, research assessment, and firm-shelf decision is public in the Register. Every subscriber receives the same monitoring alerts and client tooling. The research is general and impersonal. Research does not establish an actual household’s eligibility, select a position, or choose an amount.

What it is not

Ketju does not manage assets, take custody, execute transactions, or make individualized recommendations. It collects no client data. It accepts no compensation from any protocol, chain, or issuer it covers. It is an input to a firm’s own diligence, not a substitute for it.

How it supports a books-and-records file

Every memo is dated and labeled v1 while the research format is still being learned. It names its next scheduled review and lists in advance the events that require another review. Retired records remain in the dated archive. Every monitored protocol has its own researched memo, including adverse, unresolved, and policy-excluded records and the evidence behind each state. Market data is attributed to its source and update cadence.
