Protocol spec

don't trust the tree. rebuild it.

Every registry entry is derived from public Solana events. Anyone can replay the event log and arrive at the same registry root.

Genome derivation

genome = H(
  parent_genome,
  parent_burn,
  parent_state_root,
  child_mint,
  birth_slot
)

H is a 32-byte domain-separated hash. The birth slot makes each genome unique even for identical burns on the same parent.

BORN

a child entry written to the registry after a valid parent burn

BURNED

parent supply permanently destroyed to trigger a birth

EXTINCT

DESCENDANT

GENOME

deterministic hash of the inherited birth state

ANCESTRY

the path from a node back to genesis
