Provisions

  1. The primary collection mandate is representative custody across the AB[500], with priority given to completing the 500-project project-level set.
  2. A held token is not interchangeable with its project record. Each accession may carry object-specific provenance, traits, rendering behavior, risks, and display instructions.
  3. Acquisition priorities may consider missing project coverage, historical importance, preservation risk, research value, and responsible cost.
  4. The mandate does not promise custody of every edition or declare any one token the definitive example of a project.
  5. Collection statistics are dated observations and must identify the wallet or consolidated profile basis used.
