Current Posture
SpaceCash remains blocked for public real-money or mainnet launch. This report is operational status only. It is not legal approval, not an investment offer, and not a statement that SpaceCash is legal tender.
- Release manifest checks passed: yes
- Live devnet mainnet-ready: no
- Candidate ledger automated-release-candidate: yes
- Final mainnet decision status: blocked
Live Devnet Blockers
The current running development ledger is intentionally not treated as launchable.
Automated blockers:
- none
Manual blockers:
- public_testnet_complete
- external_security_review_complete
- legal_compliance_review_complete
- wallet_recovery_custody_policy_complete
- production_deployment_runbook_complete

Manual Gate Handoff Index
The handoff index is a read-only operator/reviewer navigation aid. It verifies packet checksum manifests against the handoff docs, but it does not approve any manual gate.
- Handoff docs present: 6
- Packet checksum manifests verified: 7/7
- All packet checksums match handoff docs: yes
- Open packet blockers surfaced: 160 across 7 packet summaries
- Dominant clearance lanes: Independent public testnet operation: 29, Production deployment runbook: 22, Evidence files and checksums: 21, Security review closure: 18, Legal and compliance review: 17, Human approval and signoff: 16
- Distinct reviewed source hashes: 1

Manual Gate Clearance Queue
The clearance queue pivots the same packet blockers by work lane. It is a triage aid only; completion still requires the gate-specific evidence verifiers and signed human approval.
- Clearance lanes: 10
- Top lane: Independent public testnet operation
- Top lane detail:
/spacecash/launch/clearance/public_testnet_operator
| Lane | Open blockers | Affected handoffs | Next action |

| Production deployment runbook | 22 | Production Deployment Operator | Approve deployment, monitoring, rollback, incident response, validator rollout, and release archive plans. |
| Evidence files and checksums | 21 | Production Deployment Operator, Mainnet Decision Reviewer, Legal/Compliance Reviewer, Security Review Auditor, Wallet Custody Reviewer | Attach the required files, paths, SHA-256 values, manifests, and release-bundle evidence. |
| Security review closure | 18 | Security Review Auditor, Legal/Compliance Reviewer | Close security review topics, findings, remediation evidence, and final auditor closure. |
| Legal and compliance review | 17 | Legal/Compliance Reviewer | Approve token/payment use, distribution, disclosures, customer support, privacy, tax, and treasury controls. |
| Human approval and signoff | 16 | Legal/Compliance Reviewer, Production Deployment Operator, Wallet Custody Reviewer, Public Testnet Operator, Security Review Auditor | Record the required human approval, confirmation, closure, or manual-gate completion. |

Manual Gate Blocker Index
The blocker index flattens every packet blocker string into a lane and packet reference. It is read-only and does not complete any gate.
- Unique blockers: 148
- Blocker occurrences: 160
- Blocker lanes: 10

| Gate | Status | Ready |
|---|---|---|
| Public testnet | blocked | no |
| Public testnet operator onboarding | intake template only | no |
| Public testnet workbench | not complete | no |
| External security review | blocked | no |
| Manual gate workbench | not complete | no |
| Legal and compliance | blocked | no |
| Legal/compliance workbench | not complete | no |

Next Actions
- Maintain the signed-only devnet candidate posture: no legacy unsigned spends, versioned blocks present, validators configured, checkpoint quorum present, and bootstrap peers configured.
- Complete a public testnet run with external participants, monitored validators, incident rehearsal, and signed exit evidence.
- Obtain external security review evidence with no open high or critical findings.
- Obtain legal, tax, licensing, consumer-protection, and custody review before any real-money use, fiat sale, cash-out, exchange, or third-party merchant flow.
- Freeze a release bundle, record checksums, approve the mainnet decision file, and keep launch copy conservative.
