MarketRipple Concepts
Data Status (Preliminary / Verified / Live)
A label showing how mature the evidence behind a score is — not how big the number is, but how much you should trust it right now.
MarketRipple scores evolve as evidence accumulates. 'Preliminary' means a score was generated immediately from the information available when an event first broke — useful for speed, but based on limited evidence. 'Verified' means the score has been cross-checked against additional market data. 'Live' means it's backed by current, actively-updating market data.
This status is shown explicitly wherever a score appears, so you always know whether you're looking at a first-draft read or a well-evidenced one — instead of every number looking equally authoritative regardless of how much evidence actually backs it.
