A source-first intelligence map of how traditional finance is moving onto blockchains — real-world-asset (“RWA”) tokenization.
Version 0.2.1 · 2026-07-10
A gnomon is the part of a sundial that casts the shadow — the fixed thing that lets you read a moving world. GNOMON tracks a fast, hype-heavy space by holding one discipline fixed: every claim carries its evidence, its confidence, and — when sources disagree — the disagreement itself, in the open.
AUTO-UNREVIEWED (!) as “a machine wrote this and nobody has checked it yet.”It is: a hand-curated, source-first map of institutional RWA tokenization that extracts structured claims with confidence tags, flags contradictions between reputable sources, and rewrites everything into plain English for a normal working person. It answers three questions for each claim:
[V] proven down to [X] rejected. A rumor is never dressed up as a fact.It is NOT: a trading tool, a signal service, financial advice, a data feed, or a claim of completeness. The data underneath is largely public; the bet is the method and the plain-English translation, not proprietary data. That thin moat is stated up front, not hidden.
Every factual line carries two independent badges — because “how good is the evidence” and “who has actually checked it” are different questions:
V proven > D documented > I inferred >
A assumption > R rumor/lead > X rejected.AUTO-UNREVIEWED < HUMAN-REVIEWED <
MAINTAINER-REVIEWED < PUBLIC-CORROBORATED.A loud (!) means no human has verified this line yet. Nothing
machine-ingested can masquerade as verified: every auto entry starts at the lowest
review level with the loud badge, and a human must read the primary source before
anything is promoted. Full taxonomy, source ladder, contradiction rule, and the
[V] gate: METHOD.md.
GNOMON runs a deterministic, stdlib-first pipeline (no LLM calls) that watches sources, re-checks each curated figure against its live page, and renders a dated brief. A CHARON public-gate then classifies every block on two independent tests — safety (no leaked secrets, no personal identifiers, no internal references) and clearance (a review-level threshold) — and emits only the blocks that pass both.
Only that gate projection is ever published. The full internal brief and the private source data never leave the maintainer’s machine. The publishing policy is deliberately conservative: anything uncertain is held, and why each block was held is logged in the open.
| File | What it is |
|---|---|
| Public projection (2026-07-10) | What the gate cleared for public view on this run. |
| Gate refusal log (2026-07-10) | Every block that did NOT clear, and exactly why. The audit trail that makes the gate trustworthy. |
| METHOD.md | The confidence taxonomy, source-type ladder, contradiction rule, and the [V] gate. |
Honest note on this run: the current projection is deliberately thin — the review floor holds everything auto-ingested, so most intelligence lines sit in the refusal log pending human review rather than in the public projection. That is the gate working as designed, not a bug. The refusal log is the interesting read.
AGPL-3.0 for everyone. If you build on GNOMON, run it as a network service, or redistribute it, the AGPL’s terms apply — including sharing your source.
Ally door. If AGPL-3.0 doesn’t fit your use — for example, you want to build on GNOMON’s method or code inside a closed or commercial product — partner terms are available. Open a GitHub issue to start that conversation.
GNOMON is a personal, source-first intelligence and credibility project. Not financial advice. AI-assisted with human review pending on every claim. The maintainer may hold positions in named assets.
