aacfac25bf Plan: the outside cryptanalysis of the hash class (scope, shortlist, shape, timing, budget, outreach draft)
docs/plans/cryptanalysis.md: the project lead's 6 October 2026 decision (an outside team attacks class v4 after a week of real hash, bounded at USD 80,000 to 160,000) as a procurement plan. Scope over the generator, the mixer and chain, the latency-shadow ladder, the verifier bound, the era draw, the chip model's inputs and an ASIC and FPGA cost estimate; finality and the proof system out. Three fixed-price lots (firm, academic group, ASIC house), the prize question stated against the NO device bounty rule for the project lead to decide, everything published whole. Eight fits with comparable engagements, bases, contact pages and precedent prices (the four RandomX audits, ProgPoW, Zcash, Grin; the Antminer X9 as the lesson). Flip after publish 2 at 00:43 UK on 7 October; earliest start 14 or 15 October 2026, 09:00 UK; the freeze list. Three price points. A pseudonymous outreach email for approval. No contact made.
