Why every full node must recompute V5 difficulty
From committed timestamps and median sampling to cumulative-work fork choice.
LAODENG UNIVERSE
This journal will record development, deployment, failed attempts and version changes across LAODENG Universe. The goal is not to polish every outcome, but to preserve engineering decisions and fixes.

From committed timestamps and median sampling to cumulative-work fork choice.
Nodes, RPC, reverse proxies, TLS, monitoring and recovery.
Connecting challenge-response records, digital identity and PoWC evidence.
Local data processing, embedding caches, access control and isolation.
How early token experiments evolved into clearer ecosystem layers.
Turning performance problems, outages and design changes into the next iteration.
