  1. 1

    Take the canonical payload below and hash it. It must equal the call hash — this is what fixes the claim to these exact fields.

  2. 2

    Fold the call hash with each sibling in order. The result must equal the batch root the ledger published.

    This batch contains 64 calls; 4 siblings is the expected depth.

  3. 3

    Read the root out of the Base transaction and compare timestamps. The block must predate the settlement — that is the entire claim.

What this proves: the call existed, unmodified, before the outcome did. What it does not prove: that the call was good. That is what the backtest and the aggregate on the ledger index are for — and they include the losses.

Outcome
