Require proof-pack-equivalent disclosure in futures contract delivery specifications for voluntary contracts.
Intercontinental Exchange (ICE) is a key venue where per-tonne evidentiary disclosure becomes a priced attribute. A listing-level quality tier, a futures-contract specification, or a settlement-layer integration each produce the same market-design effect: buyers and sellers can discover price on quality.
