Notes and record state
Record note
Terminal handling uses 2015-03-22 because contemporaneous forum evidence quotes Coin-Swap.net's permanent-closure notice with that final date. Death reason is mapped to voluntary_shutdown because the exchange announced a planned closure and told users to withdraw funds. Launch date uses a conservative first-public-active marker from Bitcointalk rather than a formal launch announcement. Country/origin remains Unknown because the current evidence set does not establish an operating jurisdiction.
