Five Screens, Shown in Full

Does not pass. Business activity: conventional financial services

TestFigureLimitWhat it meansStatus
Business activity Excluded Core business clean Its core business involves an activity the values screen does not clear. Fail
Debt load 0.02% Below 33% Interest-bearing debt is just 0.0% of its assets, well under the one-third ceiling: it does not run on borrowed money. Pass
Interest-bearing cash 0.00% Below 33% Cash held in interest-bearing accounts and securities is 0.0% of assets, under the one-third limit. Pass
Receivables 99.30% Below 49% Money owed to the company is 99.3% of assets, above the 49% limit. Fail
Revenue purity Excluded Below 5% of revenue comes from non-compliant sources, over the 5% line. Fail

Five checks adapted from AAOIFI screening standards: business activity plus four balance-sheet ratios. All five must pass for ethical clearance. Every figure is arithmetic on public accounts, not judgement.

The Ethical Read

Why It Falls Short, in Plain English

Cypherpunk Technologies does not clear the screen at the business-activity stage. It operates in conventional financial services, which the screen treats as interest-based, so the financial ratios are not the deciding factor here.

Read as at 2026-10-28. It updates when the underlying figures move, and past reads are kept below.
