sim/daa_trace.py: Kaspa's sampled DAA and the Igneum rule v2 inside a block-level block supply with bounded histories, the two W2 forms from the aggregate series.
sim/finality_v2.py: scenario N, P.wform (hour, daa, median), Sim.supply.
Result: weight share over hash share under 1.0 in every cell; Kaspa's DAA plus the DAA-second window hands the renter a third on day 12; rule v2 keeps it under 20%; the median-time form caps it at 17% under either controller.
Also: the X12 status edit of the previous commit had landed on X1's identical line; X1 is back to Conceded, fix now and X12 carries it.

F20: tools/finality-attacks/f20.mjs, a 47.5% silent set through four fast-time epoch boundaries (0 locks in the pause, program on schedule, one seed per index, 12 pre-pause locks held, 0 conflicts).
M21: tools/finality-attacks/m21.mjs, 490 KB coinbase bodies on 100-ms proxied links, k re-derived with the fork's calculate_ghostdag_k (p99 812 ms, k 5).
X14 and E16: tools/finality-attacks/x14-concentration.mjs, read-only concentration from the observer node (signing not exposed by any RPC) and one live block's burn output beside its escrow payout.
P17: report only, igneum_getTransactionStatus per state, finalized resolves to the tip.
X12: sim/difficulty/record_report.py, the 3 October record's step profile, retarget trajectory, 2-minute buckets and epoch gap in the bench-log.

Status lines updated from the bench-log, sim/results_v2.md, sim/difficulty/attacks and sim/economy where the
evidence existed and the ledger still said Open (M15, M17, M19, M24 fixed and live; F1, F7, F19, E12, E15 answered
with evidence; M26, M27, X21 fix built on miner-reliability; the rest annotated with what the experiment needs).
New: sim/economy/security_budget.py (E15 fee grid, price paths, hashrate response), fud-fixes section 2.5 (rows
117 to 126), docs/review/ledger-sweep-2026-10-05.md (the running table).

Live devnet v4: a second RTX 5090 joining 7 minutes into an epoch left the whole-epoch reference lane polluted for the hour; the short lane read 11 to 25% above it and the 25% trigger flipped between the two for 40 minutes (102M to 164M, 54 to 81 blocks a minute). Record and hash-rate truth under sim/difficulty/records/. sim.py gains a DAG model (miners on nodes with igneum-miner's template staleness, GHOSTDAG, the rule as the node runs it) and --live replay: std of log difficulty 0.115 against the record's 0.134, 4.3 peaks of 1.31x against 4 of 1.37x. The brief's candidates (short lane 240/360, ease clamp 3%, clamp once per DAA second, hysteresis, median of three) leave 0.09 to 0.13; capping the reference lane at the newest 600 blocks of the epoch gives 0.026 with no flips. Rule v2 = that cap, epoch lane only, behind difficulty_v2_activation_daa (devnet-v4 fork). Attack suite and synthetic set before and after, 3-node test network of the switch (testnet_v2.py), analysis document, spec 2.3, bench-log entry, ledger M24, fast-time file carries the new field.

GitHub Actions workflow (.github/workflows/ci.yml) on push and pull_request with three jobs on the free runners:
igneum-pow `cargo test --release` and the igneum-census build; the two Python simulators' --quick modes under a
120-second timeout; the site build, an internal link check of site/*.html (tools/ci/link-check.mjs) and a gh-free
identity grep of the public export list (tools/ci/identity-check.sh over tools/ci/forbidden-strings.txt: machine
names, LAN and overlay addresses, home paths, local time zones, the log-intake key pattern; never a key or a name).
The node fork is too big for CI today and the workflow says so.
sim/finality_v2.py --quick is now a genuine smoke run (one day or hour per scenario, one partition and one eclipse
setting): 149 s at nice 19 on a loaded Mac, was 745 s. sim/difficulty/sim.py gains --quick (up50 and warmup-hard,
kaspa and igneum controllers, 36 s). One bench-log time-zone label reworded so the identity grep passes.

A lock needs two thirds of all 30-day weight signing; finality pauses
whenever less than two thirds is connected and signing, the chain runs
on proof of work meanwhile and the node reports it. Spec 3.3, 3.3.1,
3.7, 3.9, 3.10 Q3 row, 3.11 rewritten with the new arithmetic (safety
one third in every view, liveness two thirds connected, the per-view
window bound stated as 3.7 item 9); O-3.15 decided, O-3.16 closed,
O-3.18 and O-3.19 narrowed. Simulator: --floor, the +local partition
mode, scenario L; A to L re-run at the 2/3 floor over five seeds with
the 0.85 deltas in results_v2.md. Litepaper finality sentences and the
'does not claim' item. Ledger F2, F9, F16, F18 restated, F21 added
(the window bound and the post-heal finality fork from the devnet).
Bench-log: node build and tests, simulator deltas, three-node six-voter
runs of 6A, 6B and 6A with a long heal on ports 29200 and up.

Spec 2.3: rule 1 measures every chain step on a sanitised clock stored per header
(c(b) = max(c(p) + clamp(t(b) - c(p), -20 T, +20 T), t(b) - 60 T), step min(c(b) - c(p),
20 T)); rule 4 bounds the output to [2^128, MAX_DIFFICULTY_TARGET]; the timestamp rules
are Igneum's own, 10 s ahead of the clock and 10 s behind the selected parent beside the
unchanged past-median rule; new parameter rows, the bounds paragraph rewritten (the old
"next honest block cancels it" was the attack), the attack and test-network results added.
sim/difficulty/sim.py: class Igneum carries the same clock, lag bound and floor, so the
rule as simulated is the rule as coded (attacks.py's igneum-san is now identical to it).
docs/analysis/difficulty-2026-10-03.md section 11: the attack, the three parts, before and
after tables (simulator seeds 7 to 9, base-profile regression within 10% on the 3-seed
means, pool hopping unchanged, the two 15-minute 3-node forger runs), unit tests, limits.
docs/bench-log.md: the 4 October entry. docs/fud-ledger.md: M23, status Fixed.
Node side: vendor/igneum-node branch difficulty, commit 52eacad9.

Simulator harness over sim/difficulty/sim.py with multi-miner attribution and in-rule timestamp forging, a 3-node CPU test network (ports 27700+), results and bench-log entry. Timestamp stretching inside Kaspa's rules drops the Igneum block rate 34 to 88% (the per-step clamp cancels forged and honest pairs to zero time); proposed 10 s timestamp bounds plus a sanitised running clock in the chain steps (+0.7% to +1.1% drift at 50% in the simulator). Block flood underflows the 192-bit work after 4,142 blocks; a 2^128 target floor proposed. Rule not changed.

sim/economy/sim.py: 1,000 operators choosing MINE, PROVE, HYBRID or OFF per card class with their own clients; sortition by weight with the 10-s window then open claiming, external jobs with the 90/10 split, backlog rule, difficulty clamps, GBM price. Scenarios a to f, 5 seeds: no backlog, no window miss, hash floor 0.74 of pre-event. Traffic sensitivity finds the shortage oscillation only above the proving fleet's capacity (100 to 300 shards per block); at 100 the sortition window (10 s to 20 s) is the lever that removes it. docs/analysis/economy-2026-10-04.md holds the model, assumptions, results, worst case and the proposal (window = p90 shard time plus a swap, 25 s at today's targets; B_p tied to the live fleet), not applied.

Safety: X = 1/3 of total weight while honest votes reach every honest node within 41 min of median time; 4/30 = 13.3% across a longer partition, because only the 17/30 floor binds then (2 x 17/30 - 1). Liveness: Y = 17/30 connected and signing, T = P (1 - Y/(2(1 - Y))) + 107 s, 107 s at 2/3, 43 min at 17/30; below the floor finality pauses and the node reports it. Two certificates at one index: no verified lock is ever withdrawn, operators resolve (replaces the 3.5 re-evaluation). Seeds: uncertified checkpoint allowed (O-4.3 decided). Scenarios H (equivocator across a 50/50 split: conflicts at 12 to 16 min with 20%, none at 13%), I (40/40/20), J (signing stops 1, 6, 24 h), K (bought keys worth 20% and 40% against 30% hash), five seeds each. 3.10 rows for the gaps; open items O-3.15 to O-3.19.
