Vaults & Settlement

The simulation controls the World. The vault controls the money.

SpawnUnitVault

Holds actual $SPAWN competitive capital.

Core properties:

deposits tied to Position/Season;
no simulation/runtime withdrawal authority;
no double withdrawal;
no settlement before FINALIZED status;
total claims cannot exceed backed capital;
settlement applied once per Season/settlement domain;
clear handling of refundable/unallocated balances.

Internal Spawn Units

Vault can record economic units corresponding 1:1 to locked $SPAWN. The simulation may consume/update virtual exposure state without transferring the ERC-20 each tick.

Settlement

A terminal finalized result maps through a precommitted settlement rule to a vector of claims.

Before accepting:

validate Season ID/version;
validate terminal result hash/status;
validate exact settlement sum/conservation;
validate all recipients/amount bounds;
mark Season settled before any external token transfers where appropriate;
use claim/pull withdrawals rather than arbitrary callback transfers.

RuntimeVault

Separate $ETH ledger. It cannot spend player `$ SPAWN`.
