v0.1.1 — Live anchor executed (2026-08-19)

The external gate declared above was completed on 2026-08-19. The sealed 96-byte CHRN
checkpoint payload was carried, byte-identical, in the coinbase of a really-mined
difficulty-1 block accepted as the active tip of the live laboratory chain:

block   00000000fc80fe4f27b59cafbf782f029f586151bd144115b3d5f1ee360d088b   height 221
chain   Bitcoin (2026), genesis 00000000ad12f3ec…   nNonce 2757362010

Evidence, in four independent forms — the operated seed's active chain, an independent
full-chain linkage re-verification, an unmodified released Jan09-derived client's own
acceptance log, and the bundle verifier's PASS verdict (all 13 checks true) — is in
live/anchor-evidence/ACCEPTANCE.md. The
live-anchored bundle is vectors/valid/evidence-bundle-live-anchored.cbor; the sealed
v0.1.0 bundle and MANIFEST.sha256 remain untouched, exactly as sealed.

Two earlier candidates with valid PoW lost their height races to the laboratory's own
miner and are disclosed in the acceptance record. PASS_LIVE_ANCHORED was reached by
adding mined-and-accepted reality to the sealed evidence, never by editing a verdict.
