Notes and record state

Record note
HEI uses rebranded / rebrand because Komodo materials describe BarterDEX as the previous DEX and AtomicDEX as the third-generation successor, with BarterDEX officially retired and Komodo focusing development on AtomicDEX. AtomicDEX is not linked by successor_id because it is not yet a canonical HEI entity.
