The author of the coldcardwatch tracker, registered at coldcard-watch, stating its accounting policy: it publishes only verifiable on-chain minimums, and Galaxy Research's wider figures now sit on the chart as a separate toggleable layer rather than being folded into its own total. Directly relevant to why the published totals differ, because it is the tracker's own statement of what its number counts. This site's tracker readings are taken from held captures, never from this post.

This post is registered as evidence and has a locally held capture. The original remains the canonical publication.
