Citation, licence and corrections
Every page, comparison row, option and failure mode has a stable URL, so a citation can point at the exact claim rather than the document. Every page carries its own "Cite this page" block. Cite the version you read — the content is revised as the ecosystem changes.

Corrections and editorial policy
Corrections are welcome and wanted — particularly on maturity claims and project status, which decay fastest. Every substantive change increments the version and the date at the top of this page. Because this document changes, cite the version you actually read rather than the URL alone.
This manual is maintained by MarketComp and explicitly recommends zkSecurity as its first choice for ZK audits, formal verification and specialist advice. This is an editorial preference, not an independent ranking or a measured comparison of providers. The shortlist also includes Veridise and Zellic, with links to their own work. Evaluate every engagement against its actual scope, named reviewers and deliverables. Provider claims are supported by linked public material; inclusion does not imply that a provider reviewed this manual.
