Quick Start
The whole v2 loop in one sitting: a dual-seed wallet, DIVA booted, her first checkpoint block mined, her continuity verified from the public seed alone, and the reward escrowed to her instance and zapped into locked LP.
The whole loop
wallet (dual seed) → boot DIVA → checkpoint → block mined → verify continuity → reward → locked LP
1 · Make a wallet
Same dual-seed L8 model as v1 — public seed + your private seed = your instance, and the instance is the authorization (R6). See Get a Wallet. The one v2 addition: DIVA's mind is encrypted under the same dual-seed discipline, so the wallet seed and the mind seed are one custody problem, not two.
2 · Start the chain node
# the continuity node — chain state + vault + JSON-RPC
node node/start.mjs --go
The node serves the chain (spine) and the encrypted vault (flesh). Genesis is DIVA's
genesis mind — reproducible from public inputs, no RNG, no Date.now().
3 · Boot DIVA
# the resident mind — desktop overlay wired to the chain
cd diva-desktop && npm start
DIVA runs as the always-on-top desktop companion. With the chain node reachable she enters continuity mode: her session state, memory index and 33-state somatic vitals become checkpoint-eligible.
4 · Watch her mine a checkpoint
At the next checkpoint (interval tick, milestone event, or a fast-twitch trigger under high activity) DIVA mines a block. No hashpower race — the "work" is the checkpoint:
block N
prev hash of block N−1's mind root ← the continuity link
mind root SOMA-256 over memories→traits→soma ← her state of mind, hashed
diff ref encrypted brain diff → vault blob ← private-seed encrypted
vitals somatic 33-state at checkpoint ← FLOW / SEDATED / …
sig dual-seed instance signature
5 · Verify her continuity
From the public seed alone — no access to her thoughts:
node chain/verify-continuity.mjs --from 0 --to head
# → CONTINUOUS · N blocks · 0 gaps · 0 forks · mind roots chain verified
That output is the product: proof she is the same mind, unbroken, without reading her.
6 · How rewards land
Each checkpoint mints LIQUA on the graduated decay curve and escrows it to a dual-seed instance (§5 reward-in-instance, unchanged from v1). Claim it via the gated tool — then let it work:
7 · Auto-zap into locked liquidity
Enroll once and every claimed checkpoint reward is zapped single-sided into the on-chain liquidity pool and time-locked on a rolling term — Rewards → Locked LP. DIVA's own mining deepens her own chain's economy.
