No dates.
Entry conditions.
Adamant does not commit to calendar dates. Each stage opens when its prerequisites are met and not before. This is the whitepaper’s voice applied to project planning.

Entry: Audits clean, reference implementation feature-complete, testnet stable, security tier signal aligned.
Gates- ○ All R.02 audits resolved
- ○ Reference implementation released under reproducible build
- ○ Public testnet ran for ≥ 90 days at Tier II+
- ○ Genesis cohort registration opens
