Rincoin-Sim v1.0.7: Customized Halving & RIN3 Enforcement Validation
Rincoin-Sim v1.0.7
1/1000-scale functional test environment for Rincoin Core v1.0.7. Validates the Block 840,000 hard fork — Customized Halving (CH) and RIN3 nVersion enforcement — plus the v1.0.7 mainnet sealing of Taproot and MWEB as NEVER_ACTIVE, before mainnet activation. The MWEB peg-in / peg-out / reorg lifecycle is exercised on testnet/regtest.

Rincoin-Sim v1.0.6.1: Customized Halving & MWEB Proof of Concept
🔬 Rincoin-Sim v1.0.6.1: Full MWEB Lifecycle Validation & Automated Scripts
This release completes the MWEB validation suite by adding Peg-out and
Chain Reorganization (Reorg) testing, and introduces fully automated
simulation scripts for reproducible one-command verification.
✨ What's New in v1.0.6.1
1. Automated Simulation Scripts
scripts/sim-ch.sh— Fully automated Customized Halving BVA
validation. Handles daemon initialization, wallet creation, block
generation, and boundary value reporting in a single command.scripts/sim-mweb.sh— Complete MWEB lifecycle simulation.
Validates Peg-in, Peg-out (with wallet isolation), and Chain
Reorganization resilience end-to-end.
# Customized Halving
./scripts/sim-ch.sh
# MWEB Full Lifecycle
./scripts/sim-mweb.sh2. MWEB Full Lifecycle Validation (Peg-out & Reorg Added)
The MWEB test suite has been extended beyond Peg-in to cover the
complete transaction lifecycle, including fund recovery and chain
resilience.
| Test | Result |
|---|---|
| Peg-in: Transparent → MWEB (10 RIN) | ✅ PASS |
| Peg-out: MWEB → Transparent (5 RIN) | ✅ PASS (New) |
| Reorg: invalidateblock + re-mine | ✅ PASS (New) |
| MWEB change address obfuscation | ✅ PASS |
===== Peg-out Results =====
Transparent 2 received : 5.00000000 RIN (expect ~5.0)
MWEB remaining : 4.99991600 RIN (expect ~4.999)
[6/6] Reorg Test: Invalidating Peg-out block...
After invalidate: height=451 (expect 451)
Re-mining replacement block...
After re-mine: height=452 (expect 452)
===== Simulation Complete =====
Validated: Transparent → MWEB (Peg-in) → Transparent (Peg-out) + Reorg
3. HogEx Assert: Fail-Fast Security Hardening
Replaced the silent skip-and-return guard in mweb_miner.cpp with an
explicit assert(!hogExTransaction.vout.empty()). An empty vout at
this stage indicates a critical invariant violation; the node now fails
loudly rather than silently emitting an invalid block.
This implementation adopts the fail-fast approach proposed by
@takologi, based on the original investigation by @Aevust.
4. Binary Path Auto-Detection Fix
Simulation scripts now correctly resolve binary paths whether running
from a cloned source build (src/) or an extracted release tarball
(bin/). Error messages updated to reflect the correct working
directory.
✅ Previously Validated (v1.0.6)
Customized Halving (Scenario II)
Full BVA at 1/1000 scaled block heights:
| Block (sim) | Block (mainnet) | RIN | Result |
|---|---|---|---|
| 839 → 840 | 839,000 → 840,000 | 6.25 → 4.00 | ✅ CH Activated |
| 2,099 → 2,100 | → 2,100,000 | 4.00 → 2.00 | ✅ CH Halving 1 |
| 4,199 → 4,200 | → 4,200,000 | 2.00 → 1.00 | ✅ CH Halving 2 |
| 6,299 → 6,300 | → 6,300,000 | 1.00 → 0.60 | ✅ Terminal |

Both Mainnet and Testnet are physically disabled at the code level.

Rincoin-Sim v1.0.6: Customized Halving & MWEB Proof of Concept
🔬 Rincoin-Sim v1.0.6: Customized Halving & MWEB Proof of Concept
This release provides a dedicated simulation environment to validate
Rincoin's core protocol upgrades under accelerated regtest conditions,
prior to mainnet deployment.
✨ What's Validated
1. Customized Halving (Scenario II)
The multi-phase emission schedule has been fully verified via
Boundary Value Analysis (BVA) at 1/1000 scaled block heights.
| Block (sim) | Block (mainnet) | RIN | Result |
|---|---|---|---|
| 839 → 840 | 839,000 → 840,000 | 6.25 → 4.00 | ✅ CH Activated |
| 2,099 → 2,100 | 2,099,000 → 2,100,000 | 4.00 → 2.00 | ✅ CH Halving 1 |
| 4,199 → 4,200 | 4,199,000 → 4,200,000 | 2.00 → 1.00 | ✅ CH Halving 2 |
| 6,299 → 6,300 | 6,299,000 → 6,300,000 | 1.00 → 0.60 | ✅ Terminal |
2. MWEB (MimbleWimble Extension Block)
A critical consensus bug affecting MWEB initial activation has been
identified and fixed. The bug caused bad-txns-vin-empty errors on
the first HogEx transaction, preventing MWEB from functioning.
Fixed files:
src/consensus/tx_check.cpp: HogEx transactions now correctly exempt
from empty-vin validationsrc/mweb/mweb_miner.cpp: Defensive guard prevents empty HogEx
transactions from being added to blocks
Validated:
- ✅ MWEB address generation (
rrmweb1...) - ✅ Transparent → MWEB Peg-in (10 RIN transferred)
- ✅ Automatic MWEB change address generation
3. Built-in Safety (Killswitch)
Both Mainnet and Testnet are physically disabled at the code level
(src/chainparams.cpp → SelectParams()). Accidental execution
outside of regtest is impossible.
| Network | Status |
|---|---|
./rincoind -regtest |
✅ Allowed |
./rincoind -testnet |
❌ Error & exit |
./rincoind |
❌ Error & exit |

# Expected output: rincoin-sim-v1.0.6-linux-x86_64.tar.gz: OK⚠️ Important Notice
This is a simulation environment only.
Do NOT use this binary to connect to the Rincoin mainnet.
