Taxonomy — class catalog

Each class states its defining rule and provenance. Counts are machine-derived (the taxonomy bundle); this page never hardcodes them.

Factory-era token classes (census)

Class Rule Mechanics summary
v1-parity-lock-tt minter == V1 TbillMinter TBILL locked 1:1, no redemption — permanent sink (v1_tbill_sink.json: 117.14M TBILL locked in 58/167 children)
v2-debenture-tt minter == V2 FederalMinter 1:1 parent parity + open sibling-Claim + publish; unpublished tokens remain permanent claim keys
v3-step-tt minter == V3 IndexMinter ×-step pricing (1.111B-unit steps), gated sibling claim, first withdraw kills claimability; includes the 4 BUREAU roots (parent Tellerz)
v4-self-scaled-tt minter == V4 PersonalMinter pricing × own initial mint, self-redeem only; includes NewGai batches (×4 runs)
bureau-tt minter == Bureau#1 (canonical impl) V3-rule children of the fixed BUREAU parent

external-token third-party tokens referenced as parents/community anchors

Why mechanics, not lists

Every community taxonomy audited failed onchain verification somewhere (t-share custody column irreproducible; curated V1/V2 lists off by 5–45×; 3 phantom LP addresses). This taxonomy is computed from pinned-block state and survives re-derivation by construction; the community lists live on as labeled aliases (tax_alias_tshare_canon, spines layer).
