Leading at the Intersection of Digital Assets and Accounting

 

First-Ever Real-Time Attestation by a CPA

The TNF team built the first-ever real-time attestation reporting system, first deployed in 2019. Today our transparency services cover Billions in USD value.

From Stablecoins to RWAs

As tokenization evolves from simple stablecoins to more complex instruments like tokenized securities and RWAs, TNF is at the forefront of transparency.

From Policy to Practice

In conjunction with industry experts, TNF co-authored The Digital Chamber’s “Practitioner’s Guide to Proof of Reserves,” the most comprehensive guide on PoR.

Real-Time Reserves FAQ

  • Multiple company types can benefit from real-time transparency reporting, especially those that issue tokens backed by real-world assets. Similarly, those issuing exchange-traded notes backed by on-chain assets can close the transparency gap between on- and off-chain assets with real-time attestation reporting services.

    • Stablecoins: where attestation reporting provides transparency to a token that is issued on a blockchain, pegged to a fiat currency, and the backing by assets held in reserve by the issuer’s custodian on behalf of token holders.

    • Asset-Backed Tokens: where attestation reporting provides transparency to a token issued on a blockchain that is pegged/representative of another type of asset or instrument, such as a carbon-credit, partnership interest in real estate, or an ounce of gold, and is backed by assets held in reserve by the issuer’s custodian on behalf of token holders.

    • Exchange Traded Products: where attestation reporting provides transparency to a security instrument issued and backed by digital assets held in reserve by the issuer’s custodian on behalf of noteholders.

  • Yes! In fact, it is encouraged to provide real-time transparency to your “traditional” users expecting a CPA attestation, along with crypto-native users expecting an On-Chain Proof of Reserves!

  • The standard integration timeline is 6 weeks. Integration and reporting start times depend on technical scoping and the attest client onboarding processes.

  • It’s more real-time than annual audits, and more real-time than monthly attestations. The technology we utilize for all Real-Time Proof of Reserves services has a 30-second heartbeat and will call APIs and other sources on that cadence.

    • The reporting interval (the time between the timestamp of the last attest report and the time a new attest report is available) depends on the least available data source.

    • Assuming all of the token, bank or other balance information is readily available via API or similar data extraction method, we can reduce the reporting interval to 30 seconds, compared to every 30 days (+ time to issue) for traditional “static” stablecoin attestations!

    • However, if a data source is restricted to providing balance data once an hour, then our reporting interval would be 1 hour (because we are bound by the least available data source).

    • Most Real-Time Reserve services have a reporting interval between 30 seconds and daily.

    .

  • It is an attestation issued by a CPA under AICPA standards — either agreed-upon procedures (procedures and findings over the subject matter) or an examination (an opinion on whether management’s assertion is fairly stated)

  • The service integrates across major blockchains (including Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, XRP, Cardano, Litecoin, Polkadot, and Algorand), banks (such as J.P. Morgan Chase, Customers Bank, and Cross River Bank), and custodians and exchanges (including Coinbase, Kraken, and BitGo). It is flexible to any blockchain source and any custodian or financial-institution API.

  • Yes. The Network Firm provides an embeddable widget showing on-chain liabilities and off-chain assets across multiple sources, with the most recent downloadable attestation report and historical reports — so the issuer’s own customers can verify reserves on demand.
