Dry run against the live API at 17:34 UTC rendered; the guard refused a known-bad text and passed a clean one. Subreddit rules in outreach.md are from memory and marked approximate: reddit.com refused every fetch route (WebFetch, the browser pane, curl 403). Every other number names its file or API field.

Pinned post 2 (flair: Devnet; the launch post adapted for r/igneum: shorter, links to the wiki)
The original, for r/CryptoCurrency or r/gpumining and posted only by the founder's account, is docs/posts/reddit-2026-10-06.md. This version drops what the wiki now carries and keeps the numbers that trace to a file. Sources per number: docs/review/round-4-reddit-2026-10-06.md section 5.
Title (96 characters):
Igneum: a GPU-mined L1 where the miners are the provers. Devnet live. No premine. Every criticism logged.
Body:
I mined through the GPU years. The Merge in September 2022 ended that income and the miners' place in Ethereum. I am building the coin I wanted to exist: GPU-mined, the miners prove the blocks, no founder allocation. One person, AI systems doing the engineering.
**What runs** (devnet since 3 October 2026)
- A random mining program every hour, compiled on the card. Swaps measured on Apple, NVIDIA and AMD, 0 rejected blocks (engineering log, 4 Oct).
- Memory-hard: 128 dependent random reads per hash. An RTX 5090 does 136 MH/s at 17.5 G reads a second, 82% of its memory's random-read ceiling, integer units at 0.15%. Computing items instead of loading them runs 4.8x slower (M5 Max, 3 Oct).
- GHOSTDAG ordering forked from rusty-kaspa, about 1 block a second.
- EVM execution, native on every node.
- Shards proven with SP1 on miners' cards and paid from the block: 388 shards, 446.13 IGN on 5 Oct. A 3060 mines and proves at an 8.9 GB peak (rented cards, 6 Oct; wiki: Proving).
- Finality by miner weight: 30 days of blocks per key, locks at two thirds, no stake, no slashing. No lock in the first 30 days of mainnet.
**Run it yourself**
`git clone https://github.com/igneum-network/spec && cd spec/igneum-pow && cargo test --release`
96 vectors per pack; three GPU vendors gave one fingerprint over 16.7 million nonces. The hash-rate reproduction package follows on igneum.network/evidence; your card's result file gets a row.
**Costs, stated**
The miner software takes 1% (1 block in 100, off with `--dev-fee 0`). The protocol takes nothing. No cryptographer is hired yet; the review brief is USD 80,000 to 160,000, unfunded. The installer is unsigned. The chip model is published: the strongest chip in it reaches 5x to 9x per joule against a 5090 before the lever we are gating, about 2x after, sources on the page.
**Criticism**
Every criticism we expect is at igneum.network/ledger: 167 entries, dated, 7 open, more than 50 conceded. A new one goes in with your name: post it here with the Ledger flair. "Don't ASICs make a chain safer?" is answered with numbers at igneum.network/litepaper#don-t-asics-make-a-chain-safer.
**Help wanted**
Cryptographers, node engineers, miners who will test. Pick an open row on the ledger and write to hello@igneum.network, or post here.
Wiki: FAQ (twenty questions with sources), Mining (which cards), Proving (tiers and pay), Ledger (how a row is made), Glossary.
Litepaper: igneum.network/litepaper. Live: igneum.network/live. Nothing is for sale.
Changes from the saved post: the Proving line points to the wiki; the ledger counts read "7 open, more than 50 conceded" because the file's 17:30 UTC count says 52 and the page's table says 53 (the live page is the public source; the number is corrected here when they agree); the help line adds "or post here"; a wiki line is added. Nothing else moved.
