docs/design/execution-layer.md section 10: what the execution-layer branch implements
(D1 to D10, RPC, differential), the devnet rules fixed there, what is missing, the merge
plan with the finality branch. docs/bench-log.md: the 3-node simnet run with numbers.
tools/evm-smoke: viem 2.57 smoke test (fund, 50 transfers, duplicates in parallel blocks,
contract deploy and call, state roots across nodes, export for igneum-exec-diff) and the
solc build of DeveloperRegistry and the Counter test contract.

Litepaper Finality: the reorg bound users rely on is the 12-hour finality depth in median time; Kaspa's one-hour merge depth is a merge limit, not a reorganisation bound; first-month sentence and "does not claim" item 4 say the same. Litepaper Speed: emission per block on a schedule keyed to difficulty-adjusted time, reds in the window paid, coins track blocks within the controller's accuracy.
Design 5.5 and D12: the native-execution veto is relative to the carrying block's own selected-parent chain; two-node reorg test added to 8.5.

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.
