Market Trust will not claim v1 until evidence supports it.
This contract defines when Convexly may move Market Trust beyond v0.2 canary-preview language. It is grounded in the lessons from v0.1 static scorecards and v0.2 live packets: separate the verdict from evidence confidence, block current-card claims when sources are stale, and do not publish v1 language until resolved or reviewed outcomes exist.
v1 cannot be a rename of today's packet. It must be the result of evidence that survived the problems exposed by the earlier versions.
v0.1
Static cards made the product legible, but not current
The first Market Trust bundle proved that a market can carry a verdict, caveats, pillar scores, and a receipt. It also showed why static bundles cannot support current-language claims without source freshness and live outcome monitoring.
v0.2
Live packets added source gates and evidence confidence
The canary pipeline added source-health gates, measured versus estimated versus pending pillar labels, integrity-risk screens, audit-chain verification, and memo language. The lesson: buyers need the verdict and the caveat, but Convexly must keep the machinery close enough to audit.
v1 gate
Promotion requires outcomes and a frozen formula
A large set of live cards is still not enough. v1 waits for clean source-health windows, measured liquidity/depth, measured participant-quality evidence, resolved or human-reviewed outcomes, and explicit founder approval of the formula freeze before validation.
Promotion gates
What must be true before public v1 language
Coverage breadth
30 current cards across 3 categories so the sample is not a one-market artifact.
Clean source-health window
14 consecutive clean source-health days before current-card language gets stronger.
Measured liquidity and depth
20 cards with measured liquidity and depth, not just estimated evidence.
Measured participant quality
10 cards with measured participant-quality evidence and a scored-notional-share floor of 40%.
Resolved or reviewed outcomes
At least 1 resolved or human-reviewed row must be visible. Current count: 0.
Formula freeze and founder approval
The formula, thresholds, confidence caps, hard caps, and validation outcomes must be frozen before the validation result is inspected.
Draft formula boundary
The draft defines shape only
This draft defines the candidate formula shape only. It does not authorize public v1-candidate, v1-stable, calibrated, or procurement-grade rating language.

Current claim boundary
Market Trust may be described today as a v0.2 canary-preview diligence card with verdict, caveat, source-health state, evidence confidence, and receipt. It may not be described as a calibrated rating, stable v1 system, compliance certification, manipulation finding, or proof that a market probability is correct.
Live blocker state: needs coherence outcome rows, needs freshness outcome rows, needs resolution or human review rows before v1 claim.
