A section between the live scene and Your card: three real screenshots
(the shipped Mine page of 0.3.14, and the next release's Overview and
Cards pages from the app in development), light and dark variants,
three lines (one click, every card tuned, the chain on your screen),
the download list repeated, and the wallet in one card.

The owner, 6 October 2026: "Im not sure about the site can we revert it but polish it? minimal, simple but everything needed
for the dopamine and emotional triggers of the gpu miner", then "cant we have a dag animation like we had before? with the
shards making up the block, then the final line and the other bits that looked really cool but brought upto date?"
Restored (a new commit, no history rewrite): site/index.html as it stood at 14da2b8, the step-view page with its hero, facts,
scene, three things to check, downloads, build, wallet, journey, economics and the ledger band; nothing from tonight's other
work is undone (the litepaper, /live, the roadmap and benchmark wording, ledger X31 to X33, the scroll-zoom fix). Where the
page named a month it now carries tonight's sentences: the proofs card reads "Live rows arrive with the public testnet. The
public testnet is weeks away: three seed nodes and the public RPC are up, and it opens when the go checklist closes."; the
journey lead reads "Six phases, four public gates ... No calendar dates: each phase closes at its gate." and its inlined
phases are the gate-worded ones. No "August 2027", no month anywhere on the page.
The scene (site/live-steps.js): the original bits, every one driven by the live feed. A real block arrives from the right
with a glow and its chain number under it; its outline is grey while pending and ember once included; as its shards are
verified or paid, particles fly in from the edges and its quarter cells fill molten; when every shard is proven the block
turns ember and the caption says how many provers were paid; a locked checkpoint takes a ring and a ripple and the dashed
"final" line sweeps in from the right to it, drawn only while finality is active (the legend no longer says "final to its
left"; the wallet card's state word "final, checkpoint 5" is the wallet's own vocabulary and stays). A proof or a lock that
lands on a block already off screen re-enters from the right as its own event, so every step is seen when it happens. The
counters gain blocks per second. The caption follows the newest block that changed step.
The miner's triggers, each one element with live or measured numbers, none invented: a network strip under the facts
(hash rate, blocks in the last ten minutes, the latest block's age ticking every second with its chain number and word,
shards proven and paid with the last ten minutes), each value flashing molten when it changes; a card picker from the bench
table with the time a card alone takes to find a block at the live hash rate (RTX 5090 127.7 MH/s at 227 W and RTX 4070
28.8 MH/s at 76 W from the 6 October Ember Tune on the three-card Windows rig, RX 9070 XT 17.8 MH/s from the 5 October eGPU
entry, Apple M5 Max 26.7 MH/s from the first live swap; the RTX 4090 and RX 7900 XTX shown as not yet measured with the
bench table linked) with the pool note; the fairness line (graphics cards only, a new program every hour, your card proves
the blocks, 80% to the miner and 20% to the provers, nothing to anyone else); the download buttons with sizes; a Discord join
line (the standing invite, recorded in docs/community/discord-hooks.md so nobody asks again); the testnet sentence.
docs/fud-ledger.md: G4, C2 and X8 each gain a status line saying the restored home page carries their sentence again; the
ledger-text check guards them on the home page again (55 sentences, 0 missing).
Measured headless over 40 s against the live feed: 19 captioned transitions, the strip reading 2.3 GH/s, 562 blocks in ten
minutes, 8 s ago, 2,970 shards paid, the picker's times 18 s (5090), 79 s (4070), 2 min (9070 XT), 86 s (M5 Max) at that
hash rate, 0.92 blocks/s; no console errors at 1440 or 390 in either theme; no horizontal overflow. Captures in
docs/plans/site-ui-3-shots/after-v2/: home-{1440,390}-{dark,light}-fold.jpg, home-{1440,390}-{dark,light}.jpg and

The owner's ruling, 6 October 2026, the same as the roadmap's: the litepaper said the public benchmark with a leaderboard "is
January 2027" (For miners) and "ships in January 2027" (Questions miners ask). Both now read "The public benchmark with a
leaderboard ships with the public testnet." (the second keeps its tail: its source is public with the repository then, so you
run it on your own card and post the number). One gate the reader already knows from the roadmap's phase 5. docs/fud-ledger.md
gains X33; the 5 October answers that named the month stay as the history of the plan. The ledger page regenerated (179
entries, 0 leaks).
Checks: identity grep 0 hits on every served site file, link check 912 links across 16 pages 0 broken, ledger text 51 of 51,

The owner's ruling, 6 October 2026: a phase 4 dated "Apr to Jul 2027" before a phase 5 that is weeks away is a contradiction a
reader spots at once. The roadmap (site/litepaper.html Roadmap, site/journey.json, the home page's inlined journey) now names
no month. Each phase in the shape phase 5 has, the order unchanged:
1 Under way; closes when the specification is out for external review
2 Under way; closes at its gate
3 Live since 3 October 2026; closes at its gate
4 Closes when the finality design passes external review and one rollup signs for the testnet
5 Weeks away: when the go checklist closes
6 After the testnet has passed its gate: 1,000 independent miners for 30 days and rollup proofs on time
The lead reads "Six phases from specification to a fair launch, with four public gates and no calendar dates: each phase
closes at its gate." The devnet's 3 October 2026 start is a fact and stays. Not in the roadmap and left as it is: the public
benchmark's "January 2027" in For miners and Questions miners ask (its own commitment, for the owner's word).
docs/fud-ledger.md: row X32 records the change; rows G4, C2 and X8 gain a status line (the old kept as history) saying the
home page no longer carries their sentence and the litepaper does, after the home-page redesign; X3 got its line in the
previous commit. The ledger page regenerated (178 entries, 0 leaks).
Checks: identity grep 0 hits on every served site file, link check 912 links across 16 pages 0 broken, ledger text 51 of 51,
contrast 32 pairs 0 under 4.5:1, orphan check 0 site headings, api tests 5 pass, no calendar month on the roadmap surfaces.

The owner, 6 October 2026: "August 2027" is false. igneum-testnet-1's genesis is final, three seed nodes and the public RPC
are up, and the testnet opens when the go checklist (docs/plans/testnet-go.md) closes, which is weeks away. No calendar
month is given; the owner gives one if he wants one.
The sentence everywhere: "The public testnet is weeks away: three seed nodes and the public RPC are up, and it opens when
the go checklist closes." In site/litepaper.html the proving section's proofs feed ("Live rows arrive with the public
testnet." then the sentence), the For miners paragraph ("Pools come with the public testnet." then the sentence) and the
roadmap's phase 5 ("Weeks away: when the go checklist closes"); site/journey.json phase 5 and the home page's inlined
journey carry the same row. docs/fud-ledger.md gains X31 recording the correction (the old sentences, the new one and where
each lived), row X3 a new status line pointing at it (the old line kept as history), and O-X.2's blocker note and
overclaim item 75's replacement text read the new state. tools/ci/ledger-text-check.mjs checks X3's new sentence and X31
(51 sentences, 0 missing). The ledger page regenerated (177 entries, 0 leaks).
Checks on the tree: link check 912 links across 16 pages 0 broken, contrast 32 pairs 0 under 4.5:1, orphan check 0 site
headings, api tests 5 pass, identity grep clean on every served site file (the one hit is master's polish.md, the polish
lane's), no "final" on / or /live while finality is paused, no console errors, "August 2027" on no page.

The owner, 6 October 2026, on the live home page: "too left and text heavy ... we want the home page to suck people in and let
the litepaper carry the weight; also minimise the header." The home page only; nothing else above the fold.
Header (this page only, a page-block override of the shared nav): the wordmark, Litepaper, Live devnet and Download the miner,
56 px, transparent over the hero; the phone sheet shows the same three.
Hero: one statement, eleven words ("A proof-of-work chain for graphics cards, whose miners prove the blocks."), two buttons,
then the step scene (site/live-steps.js on the shared feed) full bleed with its one caption line. Hero copy 17 words with the
buttons. At 1440 by 900 the hero ends at 849 px; at 390 by 844 at 699 px.
Below the fold: three facts, each one number and one sentence: the live hash rate with the vote keys of the last ten
minutes, the shards proven and paid on the chain (with the last ten minutes), and the chip model's one line with its link;
a note under them says the chain's state in the ledger's words (tonight: finality paused) and that the chip figures are a
cost model, not a measurement. Then the downloads row (three platforms) with the devnet and testnet notices and the dev-fee
sentence, then one line to the ledger and to what Igneum does not claim. The footer is unchanged.
Moved, nothing cut: the light-client card to /live (its verifier module with it); the testnet terms to the litepaper's For
miners section (with an id for the metamask page's link); "Live rows arrive with the public testnet, August 2027" to the
litepaper's proving section; "since 2019 (approximate)" onto the litepaper's RandomX date; the journey, economics, wallet,
build and RandomX sections were already in the litepaper (roadmap, economics, wallet, building, vs RandomX). The footer's
Journey link points at the litepaper's roadmap. tools/ci/ledger-text-check.mjs: the home page is checked for E5, X2 and
X7; G4, C2, X3 and X8 are checked on the litepaper (G4 and X8 were already there). The ledger's own "stated on" notes for
those four rows are owed an update by the ledger owner.
Polish lane Q5: the word "final" is drawn and captioned only while finality is active (site/live-steps.js), so nothing on
the page says final while finality is paused; the hero is under 40 words; the Open Graph card is the 1200 by 630 image.
Measured headless at 1440 and 390, dark and light: header 56 px with three items, no "final" anywhere, no horizontal
overflow, no console errors; the caption advanced on every capture. Captures: docs/plans/site-ui-3-shots/after/
home-{1440,390}-{dark,light}.jpg (full page) and home-{1440,390}-{dark,light}-fold.jpg (above the fold).
Checks: link check 912 links across 16 pages 0 broken, ledger text 50 of 50, contrast 32 pairs 0 under 4.5:1, orphan check
0 site headings, api tests 5 pass. The identity grep's one hit is docs/analysis/horizon/polish.md line 433 on master,
untouched here (the polish lane's own table of regex literals); it is main's to route.

The owner, 6 October 2026: "I liked it when we could see each step of the algo working." The home page's scene is again the
lane chart where a square moves through mined, shards being proven, proven and locked checkpoint, now as site/live-steps.js on
the shared feed (site/scenes/feed.js, which gains onData):
- every square is a real block from /api/live (a 300 s window so late proofs still reach the caption), released one every
2.5 s so a square crosses the scene in about 34 s; the chain merges a pending block in about 10 s, so its step changes
while it is still on screen (at the original 10 s crossing most transitions landed after the square had left). The feed is
sampled for the stream; item 0's counters read the chain. The first reply seeds the scene across its width, so nothing
starts empty;
- each step is drawn as before: an outline (grey while pending, ember once included), molten quarter cells filling as shards
are verified or paid, an ember fill when proven, a ring on a locked checkpoint with the dashed "final" line to its left,
excluded blocks dimmed; every transition glows for a second and a lock ripples;
- one caption line under the scene for the newest block that changed step, e.g. "block 144,564: mined 21:16:03, on the
selected chain; 1 shard planned", or with its shards "8 shards on 3 cards; proven in 48 s" and "locked at checkpoint 7,084".
/api/live now carries each block's chain number for it. When no block changes step for a minute the caption says why in
the ledger's words: finality paused (under two thirds of the weight signing), no proof landed in the last 10 minutes
(with the median lag), or no block changed step;
- the wheel is never touched: the module has no wheel handler, so the page scrolls through the scene;
- light and dark from the tokens, 390 px, a still frame under reduced motion. The DAG module stays as /live's scene and the
three scenes stay unlinked on /scenes.
Proved headless over 40 s against the live feed: thirteen captioned transitions, no console errors at 1440 or 390, no
overflow. Captures: docs/plans/site-ui-3-shots/after/index-steps-1440-dark-clip.jpg, index-steps-390-dark-clip.jpg and
index-steps-1440-dark.webm (ten seconds of blocks moving through the steps). Checks: identity grep 0 hits, link check 931
links 0 broken, ledger text 43 of 43, contrast 32 pairs 0 under 4.5:1, api tests pass.

From the Horizon lane analyses of 6 October 2026 (docs/analysis/horizon/algorithm.md sections 5.1, 5.4 and 8;
docs/analysis/horizon/frontier.md sections 3.11, 4.1 and item I13; both land with the lane's own commit).
(1) Wherever the litepaper or the home page implied that the hourly program, the era draw or the instruction reserve
defeat a chip by surprise (the hero SVG line, the home hourly-program note, the Mining section's three ideas, the
"Every six months" row, the "A chip is impossible" item), the text now says what holds: they are automatic schedule
changes against fixed datapaths and against human forks; a chip wired for one program is useless; against the chip
that stores the dataset every drawn parameter is firmware and everything it needs is public at genesis, so the defence
is the latency-shadow work (class v4) and the price per joule. Ledger M32.
(2) docs/analysis/chip-model-v3.md section 5.3: the HBM activate-bound ceiling (8 per 12 ns, 10.7 G reads/s a stack)
is marked UNMEASURED beside the JEDEC HBM2 figure (tFAW 28 ns, 4 activates: 2.3 G), and the public FPGA line carries
only the measured row (Shuhai, FCCM 2020: 2.4 G reads/s, 0.30x to 0.39x of the RTX 5090 per watt) until an AWS F2
hour measures the ceiling. Ledger M33.
(3) The finality section's "What is not here" paragraph and the glance table's Finality row carry, verbatim: "No coin
is staked. The only thing at stake is 30 days of public work: a vote key's weight is its blue blocks over the window,
and equivocation strips it for 30 days." Ledger F26.
(4) "For miners", under the three-streams table: all of Ethereum L1's proving is about USD 36 a day at the September
2026 tracker cost (a secondary source) against about USD 13,700 a day of year-1 emission at USD 0.005 per IGN (the
price an input, not a forecast), so external proving is a small second income at launch and the lottery pays the
bills. Ledger E19.
docs/fud-ledger.md gains the four rows (Conceded, stated, 6 October 2026); site/ledger.html regenerated (171 entries);
tools/ci/ledger-text-check.mjs carries the five new stated sentences (48 sentences, 0 missing).

The rebase onto e69117a kept master's captions and build scrub and this branch's wheel handler, chip and note. The build
re-inlined the journey feed from master's journey.json. A code comment in site/live-dag.js named the owner; master's
identity grep now covers every served file and caught it, so the comment says the owner.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>
the project lead, 6 October 2026: scrolling past the DAG zoomed it. The module's wheel listener took every vertical wheel. Now a plain wheel
or a trackpad's two-finger scroll is never captured: the handler returns before preventDefault unless ctrl or cmd is held or
the scene is engaged. A click into the scene engages it (the canvas takes an ember outline and a chip reads "scroll to zoom,
Esc to release"); Escape, a click outside the scene or the chip releases it. Pinch zoom is unchanged. Same module on / and
/live; both pages carry the chip and the note says how to zoom. opts.chip and opts.onEngage are new, optional; dag.engage(bool)
is exposed.
Proved headless on both pages: a plain wheel over the scene scrolled the page 300 px and left the window at 120 s; engaged, a
wheel zoomed the window from 120 to 138 s with the default prevented; the chip showed on click and hid on Escape; no console
errors. Link check 884 links 0 broken.

Copy, from origin/master 0a63474 (site audit). The home and miner pages named "PC 1" in the figure captions, the
page-by-page lead, two alt texts, the Ember Tune table title, the Ember row's source line and the home pill; they now
say "a Windows rig with an RTX 5090, RTX 4070 and RX 9070 XT" at the first mention on each page and "the Windows rig"
after. The generated pages carried the same names from the bench-log (80 on /bench, 7 on /evidence, the inlined
journey on the home page): site/scrub.mjs now maps PC 1 to "the three-card Windows rig (RTX 5090, RTX 4070, RX 9070
XT)" and PC 2 to "the RTX 5090 Windows rig", build.mjs re-scrubs the stored journey entries, two /bench anchors on the
miner page follow the renamed headings, and \bPC [12]\b joins site/forbidden-strings.txt so the build fails if a number
returns. The scrub also covers the audit's other page-leak shapes (a pid, 0.0.0.0:port, ~/.config paths, --rpclisten=),
which the bench page carried and which now fail the build if they return.
CI: tools/ci/forbidden-strings.txt's appended audit block sat on one physical line with literal \n text, so none of its
patterns was active; \bPC [12]\b is now a real line there and the identity check's export scrub maps the two machines
the same way (igneum-public/tools/sync.sh must carry the same two rules). The other four audit patterns moved to
site/forbidden-strings.txt, since the public export carries simulator schedule logs where a pid is a pid. The identity
check gains a second pass over every served file under site/ (html, json, txt, xml, webmanifest, css, js; not api/ or
the build scripts), unscrubbed, with both pattern lists; dl\.igneum is narrowed to the tokened path so the public
download buttons pass. Shown to fire on a page naming PC 1 (exit 1) and to pass on the tree (0 hits over 232 export
files and 32 served site files).

Rebased onto origin/master. Resolved: site/miner.html and site/miners.html taken whole from master (the site-miner copy,
the PC 1 images, the 42-character h1, lever 4 dated, the ember-tune "Measured by the team" row) and re-dressed in the shared
chrome by the build; site/build.mjs is master's (the shipper's downloads rule: the snapshot is written only on
SITE_DOWNLOADS_REFRESH=1, --refresh-downloads or CI; the priors team rows) plus the generated-page template on site.css and
the per-page eyebrow; site/index.html is the one-screen page with master's content ported in: the hero's proving sentence
(today's app on 24 GB, the 6 October rented-card measurement with its log link, "ships when the packaging row lands"), the
mine lead, the "Four pages" and "Ember Tune, measured" rows, the PC 1 figure and caption. The ledger generator's section
heading balances its lines and sits at 20 to 28 px so "Launch and operations" no longer leaves a word alone at 390 px.

site/site.css: the tokens of the miner app's third redesign in light and dark (a darker light-mode ember and molten for text
so every pair passes 4.5:1, checked by tools/ci/site-contrast-check.mjs), the type scale on Unbounded, Plex Sans and Plex
Mono, the nav with one primary, the footer with a System/Light/Dark control, cards, tiles, tables that scroll on a phone,
buttons, pills, notes, callouts, the state words, focus rings, reduced motion, print. Partials rebuilt; the head loads the
stylesheet and applies the stored theme before paint. Every page's own style block is reduced to its page rules.
site/live-dag.js: the shared DAG view for / and /live (docs/plans/site-ui-3.md section 6): blocks by header time and
miner lane, parent edges with the selected chain as one heavier path, blue lit, red dim, pending grey, proven filled,
checkpoint bands with their lock weight (locked solid, pending dashed), new blocks arriving with a glow, hover and tap
details in the ledger's words, wheel and pinch zoom of the window (30 to 300 s), a pause button, device-pixel sharpness,
a still frame under reduced motion; opts.mine marks the user's own blocks (the miner app embeds the same file),
opts.poll:false with dag.push(reply) lets a host feed it. Every pixel is a block the observer stored.
site/index.html: the one-screen story (what it is, the live scene with chain block, shards proven, last lock, vote keys and
hash rate as state words, three things a sceptic checks, the download, how it works, the wallet, the journey, economics),
every tick-list row kept, the chip model's numbers moved to the sceptic card, the testnet terms behind a chevron, the
scroll-reveal gone, the Open Graph set on the 1200 by 630 image, no horizontal overflow at 390.
site/litepaper.html: dark like the site with light on request, whole paper by default (the section mode kept, deep links
intact, print prints the paper), repository paths off the surface, the cover dated 6 October, the wallet at 0.1.4, the
roadmap's verifier figure aligned with the Mining section, the proof lag stated as measured (about 380 s against the 60 s
gate), the 0.3.6 plan dated with 0.3.14 stated, the two "tonight" placeholders said as not yet measured. Every ledger
sentence verbatim (tools/ci/ledger-text-check.mjs, 43 sentences).
site/live.html: the lane chart replaced by the module; "proven A/B in 10 min", "finality paused, last #N", "pending" for
"n/a"; the fee sentence true on both sides of DAA 210,000. site/metamask.html: its own canonical, the explorer linked, the
wallet's state said true. site/404.html: the page count and section count said true. site/build.mjs: the generated pages
on the system, each with its own eyebrow, the miners page's source notes as sentences. downloads.json refreshed from the
host (0.3.14). tools/ci/site-orphan-check.mjs: no site heading leaves one word alone at 390 px (log titles reported).
Checks: identity grep 0 hits, link check 854 links 0 broken, ledger text 43 of 43, contrast 32 pairs 0 under 4.5:1,
no horizontal overflow at 390 on 14 pages (the wallet page's timed table overflows by 5 px, for the wallet-ui-3 owner),
orphan check 0 site headings (the miner h1 at 96 characters is the site-miner agent's copy). After captures beside the
audit's: docs/plans/site-ui-3-shots/after/.

Copy only, from origin/master c077caa (the fleet's record: docs/analysis/prover-tiers-real-cards.md and the bench-log
entry "Prover tiers on real cards"). The miner hero lead, the proving feat and the homepage lead each carry two
sentences: today's app with the stock SP1 server (a 24 GB NVIDIA card proves the full shard, RTX 4090 5.6 s and
RTX A5000 6.4 s; a 32 GB card mines and proves, RTX 5090 8.4 s; the stock server refuses 16 GB and under), and the
6 October 2026 measurement on eleven rented cards with the patched server (every NVIDIA card from 8 GB proves; 10 GB
and up mine and prove), linked to the bench-log entry and marked "ships when the packaging row lands".

Audit fixes, copy only. (1) "every NVIDIA card from 8 GB proves" cited docs/analysis/prover-tiers-real-cards.md, which
is not in the repository, and contradicted evidence row 16; the hero lead, the proving feat, the three meta descriptions
and the homepage lead and h2 now say what row 16 and docs/analysis/amd-proving.md state: measured on an RTX 5090 with the
shipped SP1 server (13.9 GB floor), a 32 GB card mines and proves, a 24 GB card proves the full shard alone (from the
5090's allocation, not yet run on a 24 GB card), 16 GB empty shards only, 12 GB and under nothing on this build; the
eleven rented cards of 6 October are "measured, record pending". Each links /evidence#claims. (2) The h1 was 96
characters and seven lines on a phone; it is "Install. Start. The card mines and proves." (42) with the tiers in the lead.
(3) Lever row 4 said "Ships in 0.3.6" at 0.3.14; it now says shipped in 0.3.6 (the miner-latency merge, release-0.3.6.md
section 2), the app at 0.3.14.

Mine, Earnings and Settings on igneum.network/miner are now the installed 0.3.14 app on PC 1 (RTX 5090 at 122 MH/s,
222 W, 0.55 MH/W, 56 C; RTX 4070 at 28.7 MH/s, 76 W; RX 9070 XT at 18.9 MH/s, 198 W; 169 MH/s at 532 W; Ember Tune
and Power control on), shot read only by the signed run job site-capture-pc1-1 with Edge headless and brought back
over the relay. Masked in pixels: the job's own strip cut out of the content column, the rail foot and the Settings
name field (hostname, address) painted over, the Earnings address box painted over. Captions say PC 1, the time, that
no electricity price is set and that the tune lines are stopped tunes from before that afternoon's Power Helper fix.
Prove, light and the phone width stay the Mac's (PC 1's Prove shows an exporter error line that belongs in a bug

On 6 October 2026 the pre-push hook's site build fetched the live downloads index (0.3.14 since 17:47Z) and rewrote site/downloads.json and the stamped pages in five worktrees that had nothing to do with the release, as uncommitted edits to tracked files. A plain build and the hook now read live and warn when the snapshot lags; the ship step refreshes it with the flag and commits it. tools/ci/no-foreign-tree-writes.sh fails a script that builds a path from a worktree name, a glob over Projects or a worktree-list loop that writes; the eight absolute defaults into the shared checkout are listed as warnings until they move to env-only defaults. The journey, bench and index rebuilt from the merged tree.

The "LIVE DEVNET" scene on the home page showed blocks 21, proven 0, locked 3 and grey nodes while the devnet stood past
chain block 140,000 with 2,090 shards paid and a checkpoint locking every 30 s. Four causes, all in site/index.html:
- "blocks" was the scene's own spawn counter, never the chain;
- "proven" counted blocks of the 90 s window whose shards were all paid, and proofs land a median 380 s behind the tip
(median_proof_lag_s), so the window can never hold one;
- "locked" counted locked checkpoint blocks inside the same 90 s window (always about 3);
- the live path skipped the colour state machine, so every real block stayed grey, and a failed first fetch left the
simulation running under a label that looked live, with no further polls.
Now: /api/live carries state.height (the chain block number, the same field /api/stats reports, one indexed subquery);
the scene's counters read chain block (state.height), shards proven (proving.paid_shards_total, the node's count of paid
shard records, with the 10-minute count and the median lag in the note) and last lock (finality.latest_locked_index);
live blocks take the observer's own words (pending, included, excluded, proven, locked checkpoint, final to its left),
refreshed on every poll, with a legend in those words; the hero tile shows the chain block instead of the node's
held-block count; polling never stops (2 s while fresh, 10 s while off) and the off state is labelled "simulated preview ·
live feed unavailable" or "observer offline, last update N ago" with a note that the counters count simulated blocks.
Also found while verifying: the scene advanced a fixed 16 ms per frame, so it ran at double speed on 120 Hz displays;
it now uses the real frame time, capped at 50 ms.
/live had the same window bug in its "proven 0/16" counter; it now reads the observer's 10-minute truth (chain blocks
with every shard paid, of the chain blocks planned in 10 min) with the lag and the chain total in its title.
Verified against the live API through tools/site-serve.mjs in the built-in browser and headless Chromium:
chain block 140,489, shards proven 2,130, last lock #6,784; the failed-fetch state shown by blocking /api/live.
Screenshots: docs/plans/site-ui-3-shots/item0/ (1440 and 390, live and failed). Checks: identity grep 0 hits,
link check 708 links 0 broken, site/api tests 14 pass, site build clean.

Real screenshots of the live 0.3.14 app on the Apple M5 Max (paused, Ember Tune off, as the project lead left it), shot headless
at 1440x900 and 390 px, dark and light, the rail foot, the address and the machine id masked: miner-dashboard.webp
(the hero, same name), miner-earnings, miner-prove, miner-settings, miner-dashboard-light, miner-phone.
miner.html: a page-by-page section (the card row cell by cell, three page shots, light and the phone), the lead and
the meta copy name the four pages and pounds a day at the user's price, the Ember Tune feat carries the app's one
sentence and the measured PC 1 rows from the 6 Oct log (5090: 311.0 to 226.8 W for 0.15% of rate; 4070: 106.0 to
75.6 W for none; the floor, not the optimum), the Power control feat (one approval, then the helper task, no prompts),
the dev fee moved to Earnings as in the app. index.html: the same hero shot, two pills. build.mjs: the caption no
longer says 'until 0.3.6' (0.3.14 still says Igneum Miner). The 9070 XT row, the market price for pounds earned and
the bench anchor (the run 6 entry is on the ship0314 branch) are marked as owed or coming.
relay/playbooks/site-capture-pc1.ps1: a read-only run job that shoots the installed app's UI on PC 1 with Edge
headless and drops the PNGs on the relay (no quit, pause, resume or settings change; passes the playbook checks).

Branch site-truth-2026-10-06 = master 9519a95 + merge of ledger-text (the 45 conceded sentences of the 5 October close) + cherry-picks 6141e01, 8c5b02f (the bounty strikes) and 1a238bc (review round 4 reddit) + this commit. The hero chip line follows the owner's pick of 16:25 UTC (draft (a) of docs/plans/counter-asic-3-status.md section 6 with the owner's last sentence). Every number carries its source beside it. No em dashes. Site build, identity-check.sh (0 hits over 224 files) and the private-string sweep of the built pages pass.
Changed sentences, before and after (lines are master's where the sentence existed):
site/index.html:343 hero
before: A custom chip gains under 2x, and the model is public.
after: The strongest recompute chip we can price, holding the whole 256 MiB cache on-die, reaches under 1x per chip against an RTX 5090. A memory-controller chip that stores the whole dataset reaches 1.2x per chip and, in our model, 5x to 9x per joule; the Ethash chips of this class reached 2.1x to 4.8x. The lever against it, program work in the latency shadow, is measured and in its gates: it brings the chip to about 2x. The model is public: the numbers.
before: An NVIDIA card with 24 GB or more proves every block and gets paid for it; AMD and Apple cards mine.
after: Every NVIDIA card from 8 GB proves and is paid for it; 12 GB and up mine and prove; 24 GB on the stock server (eleven rented cards, RTX 3060 to RTX 5090, 6 October 2026, docs/analysis/prover-tiers-real-cards.md). AMD and Apple cards mine.
site/index.html:372 before: miners active after: vote keys active in 10 min (a card runs several)
site/index.html:400 and the chain scene script before: the "proven" and "locked" counters counted the simulation while the scene carried the live label after: in live mode the counters read the observer (proven = blocks in the window every shard of which is verified, "not active" while the proving layer is off; locked = locked checkpoints in the window) and the simulated shard sparks stop
site/index.html:484 before: One click. The card mines; an NVIDIA card with 24 GB proves too. after: One click. The card mines; every NVIDIA card from 8 GB proves, 12 GB and up mine and prove.
site/index.html:492 and site/miner.html:266 before: (the app is still labelled Igneum Miner until 0.3.6) after: (the app window still says Igneum Miner at 0.3.13)
site/litepaper.html:301 abstract before: A custom chip gains under 2x, and the model is public; the claim is tested by paid independent cryptanalysis and the public benchmark. after: draft (a) as on the hero, then the sources (chip-model-v3.md section 5; the Ethash rows of asic-resistance-history.md; Counter ASIC 3.0 item 8), then "The model is public; the claim is tested by paid independent cryptanalysis and the public benchmark."
site/litepaper.html:396 before: About one a second after: About one a second with the full fleet; 0.65 a second over the hour to 16:00 UTC on 6 Oct 2026 with one PC off (the live page's hour count, 2,325 blocks)
site/litepaper.html:400 before: version 0.3.5; 0.3.6 staged after: version 0.3.13 (6 Oct 2026); the app window still says Igneum Miner
site/litepaper.html:412 added after "not on maths or bandwidth.": Measured: an RTX 5090 hashes at 95 GB/s of useful 4-byte loads against 1,638 GB/s of sequential writes (engineering log, the RTX 5090 entries).
site/litepaper.html:424 before: It claims the gain is small, the response takes a week, and both are measured. after: It states the gain its own model finds, the response takes a week, and both are measured.
site/litepaper.html:440 (vs RandomX, Useful work) before: NVIDIA cards with 24 GB or more prove every block and sell proofs to other chains; AMD and Apple cards mine, ... after: Every NVIDIA card from 8 GB proves; 12 GB and up mine and prove; 24 GB on the stock server (eleven rented cards, RTX 3060 to RTX 5090, 6 October 2026, docs/analysis/prover-tiers-real-cards.md); they sell proofs to other chains. AMD and Apple cards mine, ...
site/litepaper.html:452 before: Proving needs an NVIDIA card with 24 GB or more (32 GB until the fee switch of 6 October 2026; ...). AMD and Apple cards mine. A prover for them lands when a zkVM ships one. after: Proving: every NVIDIA card from 8 GB proves; 12 GB and up mine and prove; 24 GB on the stock server. Measured on eleven rented cards ...: the RTX 3060 (12 GB) mines at 23.78 MH/s and proves the v1 shard beside its miner at an 8.9 GB peak in 37.5 s; the RTX 4060 (8 GB) proves it alone at 7.4 GB in 18.4 s; the RTX 4090 (24 GB) proves it on the stock SP1 server in 5.6 s at 17.4 GB. The patched server that fits the smaller cards is not yet in the shipped app. AMD and Apple cards mine. A prover for them lands when a zkVM ships one.
site/litepaper.html:454 before: The old 12 GB gate on the roadmap is withdrawn until a prover build with a smaller floor is measured. after: ... was withdrawn on 5 October until a prover build with a smaller floor was measured; on 6 October a patched server proved the same shard at 7.4 to 8.0 GB alone on eleven rented cards from the RTX 3060 to the RTX 5090 (the real-card table), so the gate returns as measured and the patched server is not yet in the shipped app.
site/litepaper.html:562 (Hardware) before: 24 GB proves full shards (measured on a 32 GB card's allocation; a 24 GB card has not run it yet) and 32 GB mines and proves on one card, measured 5 October 2026 on this prover build (a 12 GB card does not prove on it: the GPU prover's floor is 13.9 GB). after: Every NVIDIA card from 8 GB proves; 12 GB and up mine and prove; 24 GB on the stock server (eleven rented cards, RTX 3060 to RTX 5090, 6 October 2026, docs/analysis/prover-tiers-real-cards.md).
site/litepaper.html:645 (Governance, admin keys) appended: On the devnet the activation heights and one execution-state restart (6 October 2026) reach every node through the signed update manifest, so on the devnet the release key acts as the operator; the sentence above holds for mainnet consensus only once that path is closed, and the public testnet terms will say which parameters still travel that way.
site/litepaper.html, Questions miners ask added: the entry "Don't ASICs make a chain safer?" (three parts and a five-row table; the rental row cites the fleet's bench entry that lands tonight and the 50-miner wave row reads "measurement tonight")
site/litepaper.html:733 (What Igneum does not claim, the chip item) before: ... approximate; the claim is under 2x, the margin is stated on the numbers page, and the next lever is named there. No hash has stayed free of chips forever; Igneum does not claim to. Monero's seven years without a public chip are precedent, not proof. after: ... approximate. The same model, drawn out to the chip that stores the dataset (6 October 2026): draft (a) with its sources. No hash has stayed free of chips forever; Igneum does not claim to. Monero's seven years without a public chip are precedent, not proof, and a small prize: they say nothing about the price of a chip with the 256 MB cache on its die, and that price is a cost model, not a measurement.
site/litepaper.html, the four bounty sentences (301, 424, 684, 686): struck as on ca2-coord 6141e01 and 8c5b02f
site/litepaper.html, the 45 sentences of the 5 October close: as on ledger-text a795b02 (merged)
site/miner.html:7, 13, 21 (meta) before: and an NVIDIA card with 24 GB proves. after: and every NVIDIA card from 8 GB proves.
site/miner.html:252 before: Install. Start. The card mines. An NVIDIA card with 24 GB proves too. after: Install. Start. The card mines. Every NVIDIA card from 8 GB proves; 12 GB and up mine and prove.
site/miner.html:308 before: ... and, on an NVIDIA card with 24 GB or more, the prover. AMD and Apple cards mine; after: ... and, on an NVIDIA card, the prover: every NVIDIA card from 8 GB proves; 12 GB and up mine and prove; 24 GB on the stock server (eleven rented cards, ...); the patched server for the smaller cards is not yet in the shipped app. AMD and Apple cards mine;
site/evidence.html before: hand-kept, "30 claims · 4 Oct 2026", row 21 "unwritten" after: generated by site/build.mjs from docs/evidence.md (31 rows, the counts, the date), scrubbed as /bench is
docs/evidence.md row 17 before: The chip resistance target: a chip gains under 2x over a GPU after: The chip resistance claim: the strongest recompute chip under 1x per chip against an RTX 5090; the stored-dataset chip 1.2x per chip and 5x to 9x per joule in the model (2.1x to 4.8x by the Ethash precedent); the latency-shadow lever, measured and in its gates, brings it to about 2x
docs/evidence.md the card-lifetime row numbered 22 under "What moved on 5 October" becomes row 31 of the table; "Hetzner VMs" becomes "cloud VMs", "recommended to the project lead" becomes "recommended to the owner"
docs/fud-ledger.md, docs/fud-fixes.md taken from fud-close c6b0bad (167 entries); two lines reworded for the identity check (the log key, the log intake)
site/ledger.html new: every ledger entry with the critic's words, what was done, the status and the date, the count table on top (53 conceded, 54 fixed or built, 27 closed by rule or decided, 13 answered with evidence, 13 by design, 7 open); generated by tools/ledger-page.mjs
site/vercel.json the /ledger redirect removed
site/partials/footer.html "Ledger: every criticism" added under Read (so every page's footer changed)

Fed by /api/explorer from the observer's tables. Latest blocks (hash, number, DAA, blue score, miner, txs, proof
records, time); a block's header, parents, children, mergeset, coinbase outputs, EVM transactions, shards, checkpoint
and certificate; an address's blocks, what they earned, vote keys and balance (eth_getBalance when EXPLORER_EVM_RPC is
set). Same tokens as live.html. vercel.json rewrites /block/:id and /address/:addr; the footer links the explorer; the
link checker skips template literals and resolves /api/<name> to its function. node tools/site-serve.mjs previews the
site with the functions in-process.

Verified by grep and moved to "stated": M2, M4, M7, M9, M10, M13, F5, F10, P1, P4, P6, P7, P10, E5, G1, G2, G3, G4, G6, C2, C3, C5, C6, C8, C10, C11, M18, X1, X2, X7, X8, X9, X10, D2.
Written tonight, then moved: P3 (overclaim 25 plus the certificate-half numbers), M29 (the app paragraph rewritten to Ember 0.3.9), E16 text half (the 20% is burned under igneum-proving-pool-v0, provers paid from the execution-state escrow), L9 (devnet no-value line beside every download control, the tiles), L2 text half (no "so" clause), E17 text half (100,000-gas calls, fleet-size dependence), E13 (the six-row payment-route table in the litepaper Economics and the customer brief, from docs/design/payment-routes.md), E6 (the schedule as a bet), C13 (Monero's record does not price the die), L8 (Circle's decision), X3 (August 2027 under the proofs feed), M10 (overclaim 14 applied).
docs/fud-fixes.md gains section 2.7 with one row per group. Site rebuilt with node build.mjs (the live downloads index moved the HiveOS package to 0.3.9; journey.json regenerated from the log).

Footer partial: imprint line with the registered address and the mailbox; Report a flaw mails hello@igneum.network with the spec issues as the second route. Litepaper: Who are you names the entity that ships the software, the team is pseudonymous with no team page, the ledger and the benchmark source are public with the repository at the public testnet, the last paragraph gives the mailbox and the address. Miner: the dev fee goes to Igneum Labs LTD. Evidence (md and page): repository private until the public testnet. Trademark FILING.md: applicant Igneum Labs LTD at the DIFC address. Identity check: the ledger and fixes file join the export list; the forbidden list notes that the registered address is allowed. Site rebuilt (bench page and journey picked up the txgen log entry).
