⚛️ $XPR → PULSEVM CUTOVER v0.5.0-rc.17 — INFRASTRUCTURE MIGRATION WITHOUT ECOSYSTEM RESET

Paul Grey's PulseVM cutover tooling just hit a new milestone. This isn't just about proving state migration anymore — it's about ensuring the entire ecosystem behaves identically when you swap the engine underneath.

📊 Testing Results:
393 /v1 API requests tested
329 identical responses
18 equivalent after normalization
Stronger migration safety checks
Protection against exposed producer controls
State & sequence integrity validation
Broader Leap 5 compatibility
Wallet, SDK & application behaviour under test

This follows multi-producer rehearsals where geographically distributed operators successfully crossed the same chain boundary onto PulseVM.

🎯 The Goal:
Same accounts. Same keys. Same applications. Same ecosystem.
New engine underneath.

That's the difference between launching another chain and attempting an infrastructure upgrade without forcing the community to start from zero.

⚠️ Critical Note: pulse-cutover remains community-built proposed migration tooling. This is NOT confirmation of an $XPR mainnet migration or an official date.

But technically? The pieces keep coming together. 🧩

$XPR NETWORK → PULSEVM
Preserve the ecosystem. Upgrade the infrastructure.
