BLOCK PROOF
not yet
The first chain built so no chip can ever take your place. A mining program that rewrites itself every hour, so no chip can be built for it. The same card proves every block and gets paid for it. No premine, no stake, no foundation, no merge to anything else, ever.
A checkpoint certificate, verified in this tab. Voter list from the node.
Blocks every second, proven in shards, locked every 30 seconds.
A new program every hour. Last hour's chip is already obsolete.
The same cards sell proofs to rollups and bridges. Jobs are paid on the customer's chain at launch; settlement in IGN with a 10% burn follows the proof bridge in phase two.
The random program that kept chips off Monero, rebuilt for graphics cards.

The program keeps changing on a schedule fixed at genesis. Nobody touches it.

What changed, why, and how it is measured: the provenance section of the litepaper.
One client switches the card between hashing and proving by itself.
80% of emission to the miner who wins the block.
20% of emission plus a share of every block's gas.
Rollups and bridges pay for proofs in their own money.
One click: install, press start, the card mines and proves to a wallet it makes for you. Public testnet first.
Download only from this domain. Nobody from Igneum will ask for your seed.
Thirteen months, four public gates, each a measurement published pass or fail.
Hard cap of 4 billion IGN, halving every two years for ever.
No premine, no stake, no fee to any team. Base fee burned.
