| "Wrong constants and claims in our own text" | the project lead's acknowledgement of lane 6's finding (polish.md: the public text carried constants and claims that did not match the spec or the measurements). The fix is the nine ledger rows M32, M33, F26, E19, E20, G15, P24, E21, P25, each Conceded and stated on master on 6 October 2026, plus X31 to X33 (the testnet date, the roadmap months, the benchmark month). |
Still owed from the project lead after the close: the cryptanalysis spend (funding.md: two independent reviews, USD 80,000 to 160,000, before the testnet genesis); the testnet date word (the site says "weeks away"); the N ladder at genesis (the era-draw ladder of the algorithm lane, each step by 90 percent signal); the activation of the verification switch `proving_consensus_verify_daa` (off by default in 0.3.16).
## Decisions (6 October 2026, 23:2x UK), the project lead's answers to the seven questions
| # | Question | the project lead's word | Meaning |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Emission shape | "As i said, find a solution" | The tail is the baseline; the economy lane models the revolutionary candidates (thermostat, settled-value targeting, the hybrid) and the supply, coins-per-block and halving comparison against Kaspa and the field; nothing that penalises a holder; the recommended shape ships as genesis parameters with code. |
| 2 | Latency-shadow ladder | Explanation requested | Answer pending; the six-step ladder, every step by 90 percent signal, never unconditional, verifier-bounded at 10 ms, is being implemented behind its switch meanwhile. |
| 3 | Proof verification in consensus | On | `proving_consensus_verify_daa` = 0 in the testnet genesis. Devnet stays off. |
| 4 | Finality leave item | On | `finality_leave_activation_daa` = 0 in the testnet genesis. Devnet stays never until the 95 percent signal. |
| 5 | Base unit | 18 | 18 decimals on the testnet (O-2.6 Decided, pending the implementation lane's gate); the devnet keeps 8. |
| 6 | Cryptanalysis spend | Yes | An outside team attacks the hash class after class v4 has run a week of real hash; bounded (lane 2's USD 80,000 to 160,000); the procurement plan is owed. |
| 7 | Testnet date | Leave open | No month anywhere; the go checklist is the date. |
Standing rulings of the same hour: "We dont want to penalise holders" (dormant-coin rent and anything that takes from a balance or taxes inactivity is refused for ever); vote-or-burn is implemented only if 95 percent or more of the mining community would respect it (the weigh-up lane decides between the burn and the signing bonus).
