How it works
Pauran measures real-world production cost dynamics.
It exists as a neutral reference independent of fiat systems.
v2 Calculation Formula
Pauran_raw = 0.20 × Energy + 0.40 × Food + 0.30 × Metals + 0.10 × Precious
// 3-month moving average applied to raw value
Pauran_t = ( raw_t + raw_{t-1} + raw_{t-2} ) / 3

01
Fully Transparent
Every calculation is reproducible from the same public source. No black boxes. No proprietary adjustments.
02
No Interpolation
Missing data means no calculation for that period. The protocol never estimates or fills gaps.
03
Immutable History
Historical values are never overwritten. New versions are additive, not destructive.
Not tied to any single asset.
·
Not driven by market sentiment.
·
Not controlled by any authority.
Reproducible by design
Run the pipeline with the same source file and get identical output. Every result is independently verifiable.
