Open data

Datasets

Everything here is published under CC BY 4.0. Use it, including commercially and including to ground a model, as long as you say it came from Proof of Custody and link back. No key and no sign-up.

Each file carries its citation line, its as-of date, and the disclosure that Proof of Custody is published by Onramp Bitcoin, which is scored by the same methodology as every other platform. Coverage is selected rather than exhaustive: absence from a dataset is not evidence that a platform is safe.

Other ways in

There is a read-only MCP server for agents that would rather call a tool than parse a file (setup at /ai), and llms.txt for a plain map of the site. Same data, same licence, same disclosure.

To put a platform's score or the latest incidents on your own page with attribution, embed /embed/score/<slug> or /embed/incidents in an iframe. Each carries the source link and the as-of date.
