FAIL (published)

A track record judged by the MIZAN gate inside a zero-knowledge proof: returns after costs, the out-of-sample split and the overfitting corrections recomputed in-circuit, the strategy never revealed. Anyone can verify this credential offline. Every verdict on the registry is published, including this one.

Refused, and published anyway. The gate said no and the proof shipped with the same weight as a pass. A gate that passes everything certifies nothing; refusals are what make a pass worth something.
