Method and sources

Changes reflect updates to recorded holdings in the CoinGecko public treasury data and the issuer holdings file between two snapshot dates. They are not necessarily trades executed in that week, since companies disclose with a delay and data providers can reclassify entries.

Companies are matched by slug, with a name fallback when a slug is missing. Buyers and sellers include only companies present in both snapshots and are ranked by the size of their BTC change. Net corporate holdings sum all company records in each snapshot. BTC changes are rounded to bitcoin precision; USD values are approximate.
