v0.1.0 — Milestone 1 Release Candidate

Completed in this package

• protocol-genesis object binding every observation/checkpoint to exact normative-document commitments
• deterministic restricted-CBOR encoding
• integer-picosecond interval model
• exact quorum-supported interval algorithm with explicit TIME_CONFLICT
• explicit ORDER_INDETERMINATE
• logical witness chains with predecessor commitments
• independent SHA-256 and SHAKE256-384 commitments
• real ML-DSA-87 and SLH-DSA-SHAKE-256s signatures via OpenSSL 3.5+
• additive cryptographic-renewal object
• dual-hash Merkle checkpoints
• 96-byte CHRN v1 anchor payload
• 98-byte Jan09-compatible coinbase scriptSig
• exact v0.1 transaction/block serialization
• project derivative genesis reproduction test
• raw Bitcoin anchor parser/extractor
• exact median-time-past contextual rule in the live template path
• transparent native SHA-256d nonce scanner
• v0.1-era P2P block submitter
• standalone self-contained evidence-bundle verifier
• adversarial/tamper tests
• live integration procedure

Deliberately not claimed

This release does not claim:

• universal absolute time
• perfect simultaneity
• real GNSS/atomic hardware evidence
• a live mined chronology-anchor block
• live-node acceptance
• permanent unbreakability of any current cryptographic primitive

Status meanings

PASS_PRE_POW
: All evidence, cryptographic, serialization, anchor and pre-PoW checks pass. The candidate block has
not yet satisfied or demonstrated a new live PoW/chain acceptance event.

PASS_LIVE_ANCHORED
: Reserved for a future evidence bundle that includes a valid mined block plus independently
captured acceptance/active-chain evidence from the unmodified Jan09-derived network.

No script in v0.1.0 silently upgrades PASS_PRE_POW to PASS_LIVE_ANCHORED.
