Freshness, confirmation, and reorg policy
| Policy | Value | What the registry states |
|---|---|---|
| Freshness enforced | No | No node-tip/indexer-tip comparison or maximum observation age is enforced. |
| Maximum index lag | not set | No numeric block-lag ceiling is configured for this protocol. |
| Maximum observation age | not set | No maximum age is configured for an observation used by a mutation. |
| Listing confirmations | not set | No supported mutation reaches confirmation or settlement. |
| Settlement confirmations | not set | No settlement depth applies, because no supported action reaches settlement. |
| Automatic reorg reconciliation | No | Read state follows the authority; no executable order state exists to roll back. |
Where else this protocol appears
The Bitcoin Universe registry records actions per product surface. Core is the main surface. The others are named here because a reader who cannot do something in Core may be able to do it in a sibling product.
