0965d3dc19 Remove the development fund from the protocol
Decision of 3 October 2026: no fee to any team, foundation or fund.
Priority fee now splits 80% to the miners and provers of the block and
20% to the application called, attributed per call frame as before.
No burn of the tip; the base fee is still burned in full on both gas
dimensions. External proving jobs pay 90% to the provers who delivered
and burn 10%. The 60% signalling mechanism stays as a general tool for
parameters that genesis rules leave to miners; upgrades stay at 90%.
Ledger E4 closed by removal; E3, E5, G4, G5, G8, L1 and overclaims
45, 46 and 53 rewritten to the new rule.

5b79eb130f Take the FUD ledger off the public site
The ledger stays in the repository as an internal working document while it carries open items. /ledger now redirects to the homepage. Promotion-rules entry rewritten without any founder location.

f69ec95f8f Spec 0.1: lottery hash, consensus delta, finality v2 with the quorum floor, seeds and VDF, fees, open items
docs/spec/01 to 06 and the README index, alongside the existing overview. Section 1 is the normative
definition of the lottery hash with test vectors copied from the igneum-genesis-mh pack (cache fingerprint
48c4f5bf24166b2e, 96 hashes, mixer constants) and every prototype value marked with the measurement that
fixes it at gate 1. Sections 2 to 5 are the design as decided on 3 October 2026, labelled Designed. Section 6
lists 60 open items with the experiment or decision that closes each and its gate.

4e21a74432 Docs: fork-divergence table and devnet v0 bench entry for igneum-node
docs/fork-divergence.md: every rusty-kaspa file the fork changed (file, what,
why, risk, upstream-merge note), the decisions left open (8 vs 18 decimals,
temporary epoch seed, day seed, lane-to-target mapping, pool payee, depth
bounds, PoW after GHOSTDAG) and the per-second subsidy table.

docs/bench-log.md: 3 October 2026 entry for the 3-node igneum-devnet run at
0.84 blocks/s with the 80/20 coinbase and vote_key_hash verified on all nodes.

afacca3810 Move the repository to the igneum-network organisation and let the chain scene finish its story on phones
The chain animation scales its proving tempo to the canvas width, so a block is mined, proven and locked before it leaves a phone screen. Opening frame seeds proven and locked blocks on narrow canvases too. Repository links point at github.com/igneum-network/igneum.

660f0eb16c proto-opencl: OpenCL path for AMD, proven on Apple OpenCL, pocl and a wave64 CPU emulator
Exporter writes kernel.cl next to kernel.cu (same instruction list; memory-hard core emitted in a third, OpenCL C
dialect with the same literals as memhard.h). Pack headers are now C99-safe so a plain C host can include them.

proto-opencl/host.c: C99 + OpenCL 1.2 API, device list, runtime build, cache fill and FNV check, dataset build and
self-test, 3 vector warps standalone and in batch, bench and sweep as host.cu, whole-batch fingerprint. The 32-lane
exchange is sub_group_shuffle_xor only when the queried sub-group size for a 32-item work-group is exactly 32;
otherwise a local-memory exchange with one barrier per exchange, so wave64 hardware cannot change the hash
(WAVEFRONT.md). build.sh (macOS, Linux), build.bat (MSVC), README with the exact AMD-rig commands.

Proven without AMD silicon: Apple OpenCL 1.2 on the M5 Max 96/96 on all three packs (45.0 Mhash/s at 1 GiB, Apple
number, not AMD); pocl 7.2 CPU device 96/96 on both exchange paths including the real sub_group_shuffle_xor text;
CPU emulator 7 configurations incl. 64-wide sub-groups, identical fingerprint f99fb375b3abeaf5 everywhere.

c75477115d proto-vdf: Wesolowski VDF between the certified checkpoint and the program seed
Class group (1024-bit prime discriminant from the checkpoint hash, chiavdf
construction, NUDUPL/NUCOMP/Lehmer xgcd ported from vendor/chiavdf) and an
RSA-2048 trusted-setup stand-in for timing. eval, block prover, verify,
epoch_seed/verify_epoch_seed, grinding model, README with measurements and
the parameter recommendation, bench-log entry.

M5 Max: class 163k sq/s (T 98 M for 10 min, 588 M for 1 h), verify 4.5 ms,
proof 516 bytes; full 10-min runs for both groups; grinding gain for a 30%
miner +3.62 blocks/epoch with no delay, 0 with it.

3b00e8b480 Memory-hard dataset: 256 MiB ChaCha cache, 8 dependent reads per item, CPU verifier on the cache, levers, CUDA pack igneum-genesis-mh
proto-metal: default dataset is now the memory-hard construction (MEMHARD.md), --closed-form keeps the original.
Cache fill 2 ms GPU / 185 ms one CPU core; dataset build 20.6 ms; GPU cache == CPU cache on all 2^26 words.
Shortcut ratio: inline kernel 111x faster than honest (closed form) to 4.8x slower (memory-hard), 1 GiB.
CPU verify 0.63 to 0.80 ms per warp at 104 loads, 1.21 ms at 144 loads (4,608 items): 10 ms gate met.
Levers --load-weight and --wide-frac implemented and measured, both off; default generator unchanged.
Fuzz 200/200, edge, determinism, memcheck, stats re-run on the new dataset, all PASS.
proto-cuda: host.cu handles both dataset modes; new pack igneum-genesis-mh with memhard.h; clang emulation PASS
including the three-way cache check. Old packs unchanged; closed-form export is byte-identical to them.
docs/bench-log.md: dated summary.

Note: a concurrent session running git commit -a swept earlier states of these files into its site commits
(7b28d5e through d6539fa); this commit carries the remainder.
