Recorded purchase outcomes

Did the exact article versions bought for this answer appear in its citations? This view scores retained BUY decisions against payment observations recorded in the same dispatch trace.

Recorded settlement bookkeeping only; Circle and chain settlement have not been independently rechecked here.

This is a partial retained trace sample, not a full payment ledger. An absent matching payment does not prove that no payment occurred; excluded and unconfirmed costs remain unknown.

Recorded network: eip155:5042
Dispatch recorded at: 2026-10-13T06:41:24.031Z

Participant cohort: unknown. No outside-customer usage is inferred.

0 scored exact-version purchases from 0 recorded BUY decisions; 0 BUY decisions unscored. 0 of 0 trace payment observations excluded.

Each unique source + item + content version with positive matching recorded settled access counts once. Duplicate BUYs, missing identities, zero/unconfirmed access and incompatible payment observations cannot create a scored purchase. CACHE and SKIP decisions are outside this sample.

Exact-version citation hit rate: Unmeasured
Recorded access cost of uncited purchases: Unmeasured

Predicted value and observed citations

Bins compare the recorded predicted value with citation occurrence in this one dispatch. Small samples do not validate a probability model.

Missed value, cost per supported claim, budget alternatives and counterfactual outcomes are unmeasured. No extra reading or learning was performed.
