Payout receipts compared

Bulenox: 0 receipts forwarded to us, 0 denials. Lucid Trading: 0 receipts forwarded to us, 0 denials.

A tier needs 10 weighted receipts from 5 different senders within 180 days. Until then the verdict is "No verdict yet". How the tiers work

Share of receipts forwarded to us, not of all payouts. People forward denials more often than approvals, so absolute numbers run high; compare firms with each other, not with zero.
