Decision triggers

When a DAT contract benchmark is useful.

The product is not intended for every digital-asset treasury relationship. It is most useful when contract economics are material and a Board, counsel, manager or investor needs a defensible public-source comparison before a decision, challenge or exit.

01 · Approval

New manager or adviser agreement

Compare fee, scope, term, termination rights, equity consideration and related-party facts before the arrangement is approved or closed.

02 · Amendment

Economics or scope changes

Re-benchmark when a fee tier, service scope, warrant package, term or termination provision changes.

03 · Periodic review

Material recurring compensation

Refresh the public peer set when large recurring fees or related-party payments continue while the market or provider role evolves.

04 · Challenge

Activist or shareholder scrutiny

Separate a persuasive narrative from what public comparables actually support, including facts that cut against either side.

05 · Renegotiation

Counterterms need a market record

Translate public comparables into a factual record around fee, performance economics, duration and exit structure.

06 · Exit / dispute

Termination economics become material

Benchmark lock-in, notice, acceleration and liquidated-damages structures, plus public outcomes from similar arrangements.

Opportunity gate

We prioritize matters where the economics at risk are material: significant recurring fees, equity or warrant consideration, large termination exposure, or a live governance / activist / renegotiation / litigation event. A related-party label by itself is not enough.

Public-source factual research only. No legal, fairness, fiduciary or investment opinion.
