Kerne GENIUS-Readiness Kit

The transparency stack the attestation floor assumes you already have.

The GENIUS Act makes monthly attestation the floor for USD-token issuers: an examination by a registered public accounting firm, certified to your regulator. What it does not give your holders is anything they can check themselves. This kit is that layer: a hosted verify page for your token, scheduled machine-signed reads of your disclosed reserve addresses, and a freshness badge for your own site. $499 setup including your first month, then $99 a month. Live within 5 business days.

$499 setup, then $99 a month, cancel any month. Attestation tooling on public on-chain data. It is not GENIUS compliance, not the statutory examination, not an audit, and not a solvency opinion; the compliance line is spelled out below, because it matters.

Three parts, all running in production today

Nothing here is a mockup. Every part of the kit is the productized version of something Kerne already runs over its own reserves, in public, right now. Click through each one before you pay.

1
A hosted verify page for your token

A public diligence page in the same family as the 26 live at kerne.fi/verify: your token's trust boundary mapped, the live on-chain supply read at a block, your disclosed reserve method represented accurately, and the exact cast and curl commands that let any holder reproduce every figure themselves.

2
Scheduled machine-signed reserve reads

Your disclosed reserve addresses, read on a schedule and signed with EIP-191 by a named key, served as a hosted feed with the verify recipe in the response, the same shape as the signed attestation Kerne publishes over its own reserves every hour. Anyone can recover the signer and rehash the figures in three lines.

3
An embeddable freshness badge

A badge for your own site that renders the freshness of your latest signed read and fails closed: verified state only when the signature checks and the read is fresh, neutral otherwise. One image tag or one script tag, same pattern as the live badge on kerne.fi/badge.

The badge, live, reading Kerne's own feed

Kerne signed reserve attestation badge, live

Yours renders the same way on your own site, pointed at your feed: one image tag, verified state only when the signature checks and the read is fresh.

What this is not, stated first

This kit is not GENIUS compliance, and buying it does not make you compliant with anything. The Act's monthly certification runs through registered public accounting firms and your regulator; it is an examination, performed by people licensed to perform it, and nothing we sell replaces or substitutes for it. If a vendor tells you a software subscription satisfies a statutory attestation requirement, they are selling you a problem.

What this kit is: the layer above the floor. The statutory examination happens monthly, in private, and your holders see a certification. The kit gives them the thing no examination provides: reads of your disclosed reserve addresses they can verify themselves, on a schedule, signed so the reads cannot be edited after the fact, and a public page that is honest about which part of your backing is checkable on-chain and which part rests on your attestor. Issuers that clear the floor and publish a verifiable layer above it will read differently from issuers that clear the floor and stop.

What this is, stated plainly

This is attestation and objective-data tooling. The feed signs what the public chain shows for the reserve addresses you disclose, as of specific blocks. The verify page maps your trust boundary from your own published materials and live chain reads. The badge renders the freshness and authenticity of your latest signed read. None of it is a solvency opinion, an audit, a rating, or advice, and none of it asserts anything about reserves that do not live at the addresses you disclose.

We read public on-chain data only. If part of your backing is off-chain, your verify page says so rather than hiding it, because the honesty is what makes the checkable part credible. A signed read of a disclosed address proves what that address held at a block; it does not prove the address is all there is. Kerne runs this exact stack over its own reserves, with the same limits stated in the same words, at kerne.fi/transparency.

Setup, then a monthly watch

Our guarantee. If any read we sign and host for you does not cryptographically verify against the named signing key, we refund that month or re-run it, your call. That is the one promise attestation can make and keep. It is not a promise about your figures, about your solvency, or about any regulatory outcome; a faithful read of a short reserve will faithfully show the shortfall. Setup is live within 5 business days of receiving your token address and disclosed reserve addresses, or the setup fee comes back.

The setup fee is $499, one time, and includes your first month. Pay in USDC on Base straight to Kerne's own treasury address; the on-chain transaction is your receipt. As soon as it confirms, email your token address, chain, and disclosed reserve addresses to kerne.systems@protonmail.com. After the first month it is $99 a month on the same rail, invoiced monthly, cancel any month.

Pay the $499 setup in USDC on Base, then tell us your token and disclosed reserve addresses. Connect a wallet to pay in one click, or pay manually from any wallet or exchange and paste the transaction hash.

After you pay, send your details to kerne.systems@protonmail.com (or just reply to the receipt email). Token, chain, reserve addresses; we take it from there.

Kerne is infrastructure and a service provider, not an auditor, a rating agency, a registered public accounting firm, a custodian, or an investment adviser. The GENIUS-readiness kit is attestation and objective-data tooling over public on-chain data at addresses the customer discloses. It is not the examination or certification any statute or regulator requires, does not make any issuer compliant with the GENIUS Act or any other law, and is not an audit, a solvency or credit opinion, a recommendation, or any form of investment, legal, tax, or accounting advice. Kerne is early and not yet externally audited, disclosed at kerne.fi/dataroom; this tooling stands on cryptography and public data anyone verifies independently, not on our posture. The setup fee is $499 fixed including the first month, then $99 a month, earned on delivery.
