A valuation is a set of assumptions
A valuation ends in a number, but the number rests on many assumptions.
A company's value
rests on financial valuation and, in insurance and pensions, on actuarial measurement too.
Valuation for financial reporting
depends on accounting standards.
A digital asset's value
depends on its market and technical structure.
KSAAC looks at these connections together.
