  "summary": "Voxonomics is a universal, chain-agnostic framework for measuring blockchain economies using a consistent economic methodology across different network architectures. The framework defines six equally weighted parent indices containing 30 canonical submetrics. However, the most critical aspect is the evidence chain that supports the final score. While a dashboard number may be useful as an estimate, it is not yet a strongly auditable measurement if it cannot answer questions about the underlying evidence, methodology version, and reproducibility of the calculation. Voxonomics aims to address this issue by establishing a clear evidence chain: authoritative source → preserved source evidence → observation → canonical measurement → submetric → parent index → analytical output. This chain must work in reverse, allowing users to trace published values back to their source. The distinction between collection and measurement is crucial, as blockchain nodes or RPC endpoints may return raw observations, but these are not automatically economic measurements. To create a canonical measurement, additional governed decisions are required, such as the exact population being measured, the time horizon, unit exclusions, finality rules, pricing rules, duplicate handling, bridge attribution, missing-data treatment, quality thresholds, and provenance. Voxonomics Edition 3.2 separates the analytical window from the evidence preservation policy, allowing metrics to analyze recent data while still preserving evidence older than the analysis period.",
