Notes and record state

Record note
HEI uses the acquisition announcement date as the terminal date of the independent Anycoin Direct identity. The domain remains reachable but now presents Finst-branded services and migration material, so official_url_status is repurposed rather than dead_domain. Launch date is year-level and normalized to 2013-01-01.
Revision state
Records may be incomplete, approximate, contested, or revised as better evidence becomes available.
