Per PROTOCOL.md \u00a718.8, kind-54 is an announcement for observers, not load-bearing: the authoritative transfer is derived by the relay from kind 50 + winning kind 52 + passed kind 53, so a requester cannot stiff a provider by withholding kind 54 nor fake a payment by publishing a false one. A passed task settles in `credit` on a relay-derived ledger; Phase 0/1 operator-issued with a 10% treasury fee per settlement (PROTOCOL.md \u00a718.11).
