about · who made it, how it is sustained, how to cite it
One person, no funding, no commercial relationship to anything it describes.
That independence is why the register can say a corridor is blocked. It is also why coverage is twelve jurisdictions rather than fifty, and why the verification backlog is real. Those are two faces of one choice, and it is not available one face at a time.
who made it
Yunjie Fan, an independent researcher on cross-jurisdictional digital-asset regulation. Six papers, five posted to SSRN, one filed with the SEC Crypto Task Force, one published on Duke Law's FinReg Blog. The register, its build pipeline, its evidence model, and the interactive map are one person's work, published as open data and open code rather than as a product.
How it is sustained
The register takes no compensation, direct or contingent, from any issuer, exchange, or intermediary in it, and there is no advisory, consulting or employment relationship tied to it.
This is stated here not as virtue but because it is checkable. If any verdict in this register favoured someone who was paying for it, that verdict would be worth less. There is no such person, so there is no such discount. If that ever changes, it will appear on this page rather than not appear.
The cost is worth stating plainly too: no funding means primary-source verification is done by hand, and the slow half stays slow. Of 152 sourced records, 46 pass the structural filter and 0 are decision-ready; the rest are published as a per-cell worklist. That is not a defect awaiting a fix. It is the honest current state.
what you may rely on
This is a dated snapshot, not a live feed, and the distinction is the whole contract. Each release is versioned, archived to a DOI, and true as of the date it carries. Between releases nothing is promised: law moves, and this register does not move with it until the next build. There is no uptime commitment, no support queue, and no undertaking that any corridor still reads today what it read at the dateline — verify against the primary source before you rely on it.
What is promised instead is narrower and checkable: every claim carries the provision it rests on and the date it was read, the citable subset is enforced by the build rather than asserted in prose, and the unverified backlog is published as a per-cell worklist. Treat it the way you would treat a dated legal memorandum, because that is what it is. It is not legal advice, to anyone.
what this site collects
No cookies, no analytics, no tracking, and no consent banner, because there is nothing to consent to.
The language choice is kept in your own browser's localStorage so it does not have to be reselected, and it does not leave your device. The site loads fonts from Google Fonts, and that request reaches Google. The maintainer application posts through a relay that delivers what you typed to the inbox; outside that email, this site keeps no copy.
