the project lead's 6 October 2026 ask: deep backward and forward research across the hash, finality, economy, network and every shipped surface. This commit carries the first three lanes. - docs/analysis/horizon/algorithm.md: the chip model on the 6 October numbers (f = 1 GDDR7 chip 5.7x per joule against the 5090 at class v3, 2.1x at class v4 with k = 1), the FPGA lane tightened to 0.30x to 0.47x per watt, the reserve R0 to R8, the reconciled shadow-N ladder (section 5.3a) with HBM4 and three verifier brackets, the first measured verifier proxy on igneum-build-1 (class v4 5.06 ms cold, dr736 10.51: out), the dataset schedule to 2030; model sim/horizon/algorithm/model.py. - docs/analysis/horizon/frontier.md: sixteen ideas ranked by payoff over difficulty with the Monero and Kaspa attacks, prior art cited, the honest never column; model sim/horizon/frontier/frontier_model.py. - docs/analysis/horizon/new-pow.md sections 0 to 4: three new proof-of-work schemes defined, reviewed in two personas, scheme A (mining is proving) ruled out on bytes and sampleability, B and C in prototype on two rented 4090s; measured rows follow. - docs/analysis/horizon-2026-10.md: the summary skeleton and the lane table. Every rental cost cites docs/bench-log.md "Rental cost of hash, 6 October 2026". Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>

# Horizon lane 2 (algorithm): the model behind docs/analysis/horizon/algorithm.md
|
|
|
|
Run (plain Python 3, no numpy, under a second):
|
|
|
|
python3 sim/horizon/algorithm/model.py # every table, markdown on stdout
|
|
python3 sim/horizon/algorithm/model.py --section chip # chip | fpga | v5 | era | verifier | schedule
|
|
|
|
Every input is listed at the top of `model.py` with its source file or URL and its label (measured, cited,
|
|
approximate). The verifier rows are this lane's own measurement of 6 October 2026 on igneum-build-1 (the
|
|
`igneum-pow` crate built there through `tools/build-remote.sh`, `IGNEUM_AGENT=horizon`, one slot, 10 s; the bench
|
|
pinned with `taskset -c 40` under `nice -n 19`, then both SMT siblings 40 and 88 at once); the commands and raw lines
|
|
are in section 2 of the document.
