Challenge window (24 hours)
Once a claim is Judged, a 24-hour window opens. During that window you may post counter-evidence and a stake. After the window closes with no challenge, anyone can finalize the record.
Stake requirements
The challenger’s stake must be at least the claimant’s original stake. Both amounts sit in escrow until settlement.
Settlement
Settlement re-runs consensus with the original evidence and the challenger’s counter-evidence. The new verdict becomes Final.
Stake distribution
- Winner takes all when the final verdict is True or False — the prevailing side can withdraw the combined escrow.
- Burn / lock when the result is Unverifiable — neither side is paid out as a winner.
