 "laws": [
  "**One book.** Both sides write to one ledger; stock is one number, and each side is told what to show.",
  "**The fee on the line.** Each line carries the fee the platform reported; a list rate is used only when it says nothing, and marked so.",
  "**Never below zero.** A sale the book cannot cover is refused and written down with its money; no stock moves.",
  "**The last unit has one door.** At one unit the keeper side holds it and the other shows 0 until the stock moves.",
  "**Witnessed.** Every line carries the hash of the one before; a changed cent breaks the chain at that line.",
  "**Closed means found.** A payout closes only when every entry finds its line to the cent, and no event is paid out twice."
