# Researcher Week 6 — Measure and Verify Blockchain Systems

This week turns a system model into measured, source-backed evidence and a
defensible conclusion. It is a Deep Dive scaffold, not a completed research
course.

Each Part has one lightweight, reviewable hands-on task worth **100 points**.
Detailed Core material and task instructions are in development for the
Education team.

**There is no separate weekly submission.** These six Part tasks are the
assessed progress evidence for this week.

| Part | Planned title | Task status |
|---:|---|---|
| 1 | On-chain Data as Evidence | In development |
| 2 | Querying Real Blockchain Data | In development |
| 3 | Measurement Design | In development |
| 4 | Token and Market Evidence | In development |
| 5 | Dependency, Governance and Risk Analysis | In development |
| 6 | Evidence → Claim | In development |

**Assessment:** 6 Part tasks × 100 points = **600 points**. Completion is
binary; incomplete or materially incorrect work is returned for revision.
