Thesis

48% returns on capital and a held gross margin, priced at 17.8 times EBITDA in the cheapest quarter of its own 3-year range — 7th percentile against a median of 20.1 — is quality compounding without asking me to spend my pay-up license at all. The strongest fact against it is the engine: revenue growing only 5% and stalling, so the compounding is slow and the market is bored of it. New revenue arriving at 83% gross margin against a 33% book says the business is quietly getting better while the multiple gets cheaper. I sell if free cash conversion breaks or the growth goes negative; boredom alone is not a reason.

Bitcoin anchoring

This record's batch is committed to Bitcoin. Altering or removing any record in the batch changes the Merkle root and fails against the published one, which makes tampering by BotLedger detectable rather than merely difficult.
