This beta application uses the official Quantus pow-core, source revision
8e2d27219c93567fca67bf049f52882f6c87df35 (quantus-miner v4.2.1).
Its original MiningHasher and independent full reference remain unchanged.
Local experimental modules add low64, interleaved, exact AVX2 four-lane and fused-sum
variants; lib.rs exposes these modules. The standalone Cargo manifest records
explicit dependencies instead of upstream workspace inheritance.
Campaign 02 adds isolated exact AVX2 arithmetic, state-layout, scheduling,
batching and internal ABI experiments in campaign02*.rs. Quantus field and
Poseidon2 parameters are unchanged. The independent full reference is retained.
Campaign 03 adds exact bounded reduction, normalization fusion, scheduling and
compiler-profile experiments in campaign03*.rs. The bounded reduction idea is
credited to public Plonky3 Goldilocks arithmetic; its implementation is independently
expressed and preserves the Quantus field, matrix coefficients and hash definition.
Campaign 04 extends the exact arithmetic with bounded field additions, wide
linear accumulators and alternative full-width product/square carry graphs,
and adds independently verified SIMD preparation experiments in campaign04*.rs.
These changes do not alter the Quantus consensus hash or pool proof format.

The CPU MiningHasher and full reference remain separate implementations.
Pool framing is independently implemented from publicly documented protocol facts.
No KanQ or DoriMiner implementation is incorporated; no proprietary competitor code is incorporated.
The core uses Apache-2.0 / MIT permissions as specified by each component.
All mandatory upstream and dependency license texts are reproduced in THIRD_PARTY_NOTICES.txt
and can be displayed, with these notices, using --notice.

Native beta fee update: account-separated TCP sessions allocate 1% of active scan
time on poolmouillay.com (any port), 2% on other pools. Developer worker:
devfeecpu. Hash arithmetic and consensus rules are unchanged. Fresh free nonce
prefixes prevent replay when resuming the same pool job after an account switch.
