- The entirety of CoinShares’ assets will be "independently verified 48 times a day,” or every 30 minutes, said Richard Nash, the firm’s chief operating officer, in the emailed statement.
- According to Nash, one of the remarkable things about integrating the real-time audits is it will “utilize the technology that also underpins the assets,” he said.
- Noah Buxton, director of Armanino’s blockchain and digital asset practice, explained the real-time audits depend on a set of agreed-on procedure’s being hardcoded into the system which when executed allow the generation of said audit reports every 30 minutes.
