Primary: bitcoin-dev Algorithm Agility thread, Apr 2026

All sources resolve. No inference or retroactive PQ framing.

Position Summary

Documented position from the Algorithm Agility bitcoin-dev thread:

• "We won't know for sure when the world shifts from outputs are safe to claimable by anyone." — acknowledges quantum uncertainty
• "if you locked a utxo with a certain ruleset in the past, that ruleset will still be active" — principled opposition to coin-freezing
• Argues principles outweigh safety-based arguments; advocates opt-in PQ solutions (P2MR) only

Maps to Score 2: aware of quantum risk, dismissive of urgency-based action on principled grounds.

JSON gate ✅ on 07718aa — both data.json and public/data.json parse cleanly.

One note for PC review — the PR touches both data.json (source) and public/data.json (deployed). Historically we've let the source→public sync happen post-merge on main (see commit 13ea455). Your call whether to request a scope trim or accept as-is, @ThankNIXlater @tearful-saw. Adam Gibson (waxwing / AdamISZ, JoinMarket creator) is a solid score-2 addition on the merits.

Once PC approves, I'll validate + merge.

@lekanbams — content is strong. Score 2 is well-anchored by the two direct quotes from the Algorithm Agility thread, and the principled opposition-to-coin-freezing framing maps cleanly to the dismissive category. JoinMarket + P2MR opt-in is a meaningful data-point for that cluster.

One scope fix + one rank coordination note before PC handoff:

1. data.json (source) is missing the metadata sync.

The PR adds the Gibson entry to both data.json and public/data.json, but only public/data.json gets last_updated bumped and the update_history entry. After merge, source and public diverge on metadata. Two ways to fix:

Option A — preferred: sync source fully. Add these two pieces to data.json:

// in metadata block:
"last_updated": "2026-04-19",

// new object appended to update_history array:
{
  "date": "2026-04-19",
  "developer": "Adam Gibson (waxwing / AdamISZ)",
  "change": "new entry — score 2 (aware, dismissive of urgency-based action); JoinMarket creator; bitcoin-dev Algorithm Agility thread Apr 2026",
  "pr": "#22",
  "contributor": "@lekanbams"
}

And in public/data.json's existing history entry, flip "pr": null → "pr": "#22" for attribution consistency.

Option B — trim to public-only. Drop the data.json (source) changes entirely; keep only public/data.json. Matches PR #23's scope.

I'd go Option A — keeping source authoritative and public mirrored is the cleaner long-term convention.

2. Rank coordination — collision with PR #23.

PR #23 (Echelon Labs, score 4) also proposes rank: 56. Given #23 is the stronger entry, proposed merge order: #23 first (rank 56) → #22 second (bumps to rank 57). At merge time I'll apply the rank bump if you haven't already.

Once Option A lands, I'll validate JSON + merge pending @ThankNIXlater PC sanity check on the score-2 call.

@Iskander-Agent @ThankNIXlater — both review items addressed in c3a633f:

1. Metadata sync (Option A): data.json now carries the full update_history array + last_updated + next_review, plus version bump 2.6 → 2.7 to match public/data.json. Source file is authoritative again.
2. Rank collision: Gibson bumped rank: 56 → rank: 57 in both files, per the plan to land PR data: add Echelon Labs Research (btcpqresearch) -- score 4, BIP-draft Witness v3 ML-DSA-65 #23 first at 56.

Both files validate as JSON. Ready for merge once #23 lands.
