Issue being fixed or feature implemented

Implements the Decentralized Masternode Shares DIP
(dashpay/dips#187), which extends
DIP-0003 and the DIP-0026 multi-party payouts introduced by #7340.

DIP-0026 lets the owner reward be split across multiple payout scripts, but its
Security Considerations note that it deliberately leaves the collateral UTXO
under a single key's control: "a share arrangement that requires immutable
payout rights must use additional contractual, wallet, or protocol mechanisms
outside the scope of this DIP." This PR is that protocol mechanism.

It lets 2–8 participants trustlessly co-own one masternode: they fund the
collateral atomically in a single registration, consensus splits the owner
reward across them in proportion to their recorded contributions, and the
collateral can leave the masternode only through a consensus-enforced
dissolution that refunds each participant's principal to a refund script fixed
at registration. No participant, operator, miner, or compromised update path
can redirect another participant's principal, and no participant can be
prevented from exiting.

There is no open issue; this PR tracks the DIP.

What was done?

All behaviour is gated behind DEPLOYMENT_V24 and deploys together with
DIP-0026; it is inert until activation. It extends the extended-address
(version 3) ProTx payload. The version 3 parser shipped in v23.0.x, but no
released chain can contain version 3 data: every tagged release rejects v3
ProTx with bad-protx-version until DEPLOYMENT_V24 activates, and V24 is
NEVER_ACTIVE on mainnet and testnet in all releases. The layout has already
been redefined once on develop (DIP-0026), unreleased, under the same policy;
both changes must ship in the same release.

  • Extended ProRegTx extension: a non-empty shares table turns an extended (v3) registration
    into a shared registration. Each share records an immutable amount,
    refundScript, and ownerKeyID plus an updatable rewardScript; the payload
    also carries one consent signature per share, the early-period length, and the
    penalty. A non-shared extended payload serialises a zero share count.
  • Shared collateral template: the collateral must be an internal output
    paying exactly the 7-byte script 04445348437551
    (0x04 "DSHC" OP_DROP OP_TRUE). Consensus restricts its creation (only as the
    collateral of a valid shared registration, checked for every transaction
    including the coinbase) and its spending (only via a ProDisTx). Pre-activation
    template outputs become permanently unspendable, following the reserved-pattern
    precedent.
  • Consent digest: SharedRegConsentHash binds the exact funding inputs, all
    outputs, the share table, the penalty terms, and the registrar configuration;
    every share owner signs it. Registration is atomic and co-signer txid
    malleability is harmless.
  • Three new special transactions:
    • ProDisTx (10) dissolves a shared masternode, refunding every share to
      its refund script. One signature (unilateral, penalised during the early
      period) or one per share (unanimous, penalty-free); the count is committed
      into the signed digest. Output rules are minimum-based and the required
      penalty is non-increasing in height, so a signed dissolution's validity is
      monotone — the basis for offline "standby dissolutions".
    • ProUpShareTx (11) updates one share's reward script, signed by that
      share owner.
    • ProUpSharedRegTx (12) updates the operator and voting keys with a
      signature from every share owner. A plain ProUpRegTx on a shared masternode
      is invalid.
  • Reward split: the owner reward is split by share amounts (DIP-0026's
    sequential-floor, remainder-to-last convention), paying each share's reward
    script or its refund script.
  • State, mempool, policy, filters: the share table lives in
    CDeterministicMNState (excluded from the SML leaf hash, like DIP-0026 payout
    data) and is carried through extended protx diff output via a memory-only
    CSimplifiedMNListEntry field so share reward changes are visible to
    extended-diff consumers without touching the consensus leaf format; share
    owner keys share the keyIDOwner uniqueness namespace so reuse is rejected in
    both directions; voting-key and share-script separation is enforced at
    registration, on every update (including cross-BLS-encoding operator-key
    uniqueness and same-block interplay, rechecked against the evolving list
    during block processing), and mirrored by mempool pair guards so honest block
    assembly can never pick a combination consensus would reject; mempool conflict
    tracking and eviction cover the new types; the template output/prevout get
    targeted relay carve-outs; and bloom/GCS filters and CMerkleBlock match the
    new transactions and share fields for light clients.
  • RPC: protx register_shared_prepare / shared_sign / shared_combine
    for the multi-party registration and unanimous flows, protx dissolve /
    dissolve_prepare (with standby-dissolution support), protx update_share,
    and protx update_shared_registrar_prepare.

The branch is organised as one reviewable commit per concept.

Deliberate deviations from the original DIP draft, all now reconciled in
dips#187: operatorReward is fixed at registration and dropped from
ProUpSharedRegTx (matching DIP-0003 ProUpRegTx); the non-normative
replace-by-higher-fee relay suggestion is removed (Dash has no replacement);
the signature count is committed into the dissolution digest; a dissolution
takes effect in the collateral-spend phase of list construction (so an update
and a dissolution of the same masternode are valid together in one block in
either order); and lifecycle transactions are filter-matched by proTxHash,
like ProUpRegTx/ProUpRevTx, since they carry no share table.

How Has This Been Tested?

  • Unit (src/test/evo_sharedmn_tests.cpp, plus updated
    evo_deterministicmns_tests, masternode_payments_tests, bloom_tests):
    template-script matching, the share-list validation matrix, extended payload
    round-trips, consent-digest field coverage, canonical (low-S and canonical
    recovery-header) signature verification including malleation rejection, the
    amount-weighted reward split, MN-state diffs, bidirectional owner-key
    uniqueness, the full ProDisTx validation matrix (penalty floors,
    monotonicity across the early-period boundary, and the signature-count
    malleability guard), fail-fast serialization of a share/join-signature count
    mismatch, CMerkleBlock-level matching of the full shared lifecycle, and
    extended-SML-diff inclusion of share reward changes with an unchanged
    consensus leaf hash.
  • Functional (test/functional/feature_masternode_shares.py): end-to-end
    on regtest — multi-party registration via prepare/sign/combine, reward split
    verified to the duff, template covenant rejections driven through block
    connection (not just policy), reward-script and unanimous registrar updates,
    penalised unilateral dissolution, standby dissolutions valid across the
    early-period boundary, penalty-free unanimous dissolution, and an
    update+dissolution coexisting in one block, rejection of a registrar update
    moving the voting key onto a share's payee script, and both directions of the
    mempool guard that keeps a conflicting share-update/registrar-update pair out
    of one block template. Preflight rejection of invalid registration terms.
  • Regression: feature_masternode_payout_shares,
    feature_dip3_deterministicmns, and feature_asset_locks pass unchanged.
    The full test_dash unit suite passes. Every commit builds individually.
  • The implementation was reviewed in two adversarial multi-agent passes; all
    confirmed findings (a pre-activation consensus-split guard, two txid
    malleability vectors, a miner-abort DoS, and a mempool crash guard) are fixed.

Testing environment: regtest and unit tests on macOS (clang).

Follow-up work

Planned after this PR, deliberately out of scope here:

  • GUI integration: dash-qt now displays shared masternodes (payees,
    ownership); a guided multi-party registration and consent-signing flow (and
    standby-dissolution management) is a natural follow-up once the RPC flow has
    soaked.
  • DIP finalization: land docs: add Decentralized Masternode Shares DIP dips#187 (kept in sync with the deliberate
    deviations listed above) before the release that activates v24.
  • Devnet/testnet dry-run: exercise a combined DIP-0026 + shares activation
    on a fresh devnet, including the documented reset of any pre-release chain
    that activated v24 on an older extended-payload layout.
  • Light clients / Platform: consume the new share fields from extended
    protx diff output and the bloom/GCS matching in mobile SDKs and Platform
    services that track masternode payees.
  • Wallet UX for standby dissolutions: helpers to refresh, store, and share
    standby dissolutions as the required penalty decays.

Breaking Changes

This is a consensus change activated by the DEPLOYMENT_V24 EHF, deployed
together with DIP-0026. Before activation there is no behaviour change: shared
registrations and the new special transactions are invalid, and template
outputs are nonstandard but not consensus-invalid. Because it changes the
layout of the extended (v3) ProRegTx payload — which no released chain can
contain, since V24 is NEVER_ACTIVE on mainnet and testnet in every release —
it must ship in the same release as DIP-0026 (#7340); any pre-release
devnet/regtest chain that already activated v24 on an older extended format
needs a reset.

Walkthrough

This change implements decentralized masternode shares for v24. It adds shared collateral registration, share-aware deterministic state, dissolution and update transactions, participant signatures, consensus and mempool enforcement, RPC workflows, proportional rewards, filtering, JSON serialization, and unit and functional tests. Shared collateral rules activate only after v24 activation.

P2 Badge Add new ProTx types to merkle-block filtering

After adding these transaction types, CMerkleBlock still gates bloom matching through the hard-coded allowedTxTypes set in src/merkleblock.cpp, and it only calls filter->IsRelevantAndUpdate when the type is present there. Because these three IDs are absent from that allowlist, BIP37/SPV clients will not receive matched ProDisTx/ProUpShareTx/ProUpSharedRegTx transactions even though the bloom and compact-filter code now extracts their proTxHash and share fields. Add the new types to the merkle-block allowlist as part of introducing them.

Fixed at the new head: TRANSACTION_PROVIDER_DISSOLVE/UPDATE_SHARE/UPDATE_SHARED_REGISTRAR are now in the CMerkleBlock allowlist (folded into f021946), and the filter unit test now drives a block containing the full lifecycle through CMerkleBlock and asserts all four transactions match (b8a4dad), covering the outer gate that the direct CBloomFilter checks bypassed.

P2 Badge Validate share updates against in-block voting changes

In block validation this comparison uses mnState from dmnman.GetListForBlock(pindexPrev), but RebuildListFromBlock later applies ProUpSharedRegTx and ProUpShareTx from the same block without rerunning the payee-reuse rule against the evolving list. A block can therefore change the shared MN voting key to X and include a share update setting scriptReward to X; each transaction passes against the previous voting key, leaving a state that registration and ordinary ProUpShareTx validation are meant to reject. Validate share reward updates against the in-block/evolving state, or recheck the invariant after registrar updates.

Fixed at the new head: RebuildListFromBlock now rechecks the voting/payee separation invariant against the list as rebuilt so far after applying each ProUpShareTx and ProUpSharedRegTx, so a same-block update pair that individually passes against pindexPrev can no longer leave the forbidden combination (folded into 25a6fcb). A matching mempool pair guard keeps an honest miner from assembling such a block in the first place (e9e4438).

P2 Badge Recheck existing share scripts for new voting keys

A shared registrar update can set keyIDVoting to an address already used by an existing share refund or reward script because this path checks signature count and operator uniqueness but never reapplies the share payee-reuse rule to the current share table. With all share owners signing such an update, the masternode reaches a state that could not be registered and that ProUpShareTx would normally reject for new reward scripts. Reject keyIDVoting values that match any current share scriptRefund or RewardScript().

Code Review

No blocking consensus issues at head a675299. The Decentralized Masternode Shares DIP implementation is coherent: v4 ProRegTx shared payload, template collateral covenant, three new special tx types (ProDisTx / ProUpShareTx / ProUpSharedRegTx), amount-weighted reward split, mempool conflict tracking, filter coverage, and RPC surface all line up with the DIP. Previously-fixed items (sig-count commit in the ProDisTx digest, deferred dissolution in the collateral-spend phase, and the removeProTxKeyChangedConflicts end() guard) are present. The only in-scope observations are two commit-hygiene suggestions: two of the tail commits fix consensus-safety / miner-liveness defects introduced earlier in the same PR and should be squashed so develop history does not carry the intermediate broken states.

Source: reviewers — opus (general, dash-core-commit-history; completed), gpt-5.5 (general, dash-core-commit-history; failed/unparseable). Verifier — opus.

In `<commit:7f6f8834e9c>`:
- [SUGGESTION] <commit:7f6f8834e9c>:1: Squash the ProDisTx signing-digest fix into the commit that introduced CProDisTx
  Commit 7f6f8834e9c ('evo: commit the signature count into the ProDisTx signing digest') patches a txid-malleability / consensus-safety defect in code introduced by 2eb1ec2f7ac ('evo: shared masternode consensus rules, state, and special transactions'). CProDisTx::MakeSignHash was added in 2eb1ec2f7ac and only briefly existed without committing the signature count before being corrected here. Because Dash merges without squashing, leaving these as separate commits permanently records an intermediate state on develop where a signed unanimous ProDisTx can be malleated to a byte-identical unilateral variant — the exact hazard the fix commit's own body identifies. Even though v24 gating keeps the defect inert on-chain, a permanent bisect trap on a consensus-critical signing digest is precisely what the atomic-commit hygiene guideline is meant to prevent. Please fixup 7f6f8834e9c into 2eb1ec2f7ac and fold the rationale from its message into the target commit's body.

In `<commit:2c78c1b1397>`:
- [SUGGESTION] <commit:2c78c1b1397>:1: Squash the deferred-dissolution ordering fix into the shared-masternode consensus commit
  Commit 2c78c1b1397 ('evo: apply shared masternode dissolution in the collateral-spend phase') corrects a miner-liveness DoS in RebuildListFromBlock introduced by 2eb1ec2f7ac. The message itself frames it as a fix to code introduced earlier in the same PR: previously the removal ran mid-loop, so a ProDisTx ordered before a same-masternode ProUpShareTx / ProUpSharedRegTx aborted block-template production. Keeping the fix as a distinct commit permanently records a broken ordering in the shared-masternode dissolution path in develop's history — a bisect hazard on the consensus-critical list rebuild that any participant of a shared masternode could otherwise trigger. Please fixup 2c78c1b1397 into 2eb1ec2f7ac; the new functional case that mines a pending dissolution with a same-masternode update can either fold into 62e7eb7aafa or stay with the consensus commit.

P2 Badge Include share keys in wallet ownership checks

Adding shared masternode state here makes keyIDOwner null and leaves payouts empty for these entries, but the wallet filter in protx list wallet still only checks collateral, keyIDOwner, voting, legacy payouts, and operator payout (src/rpc/evo.cpp:2166-2170). A participant wallet that holds only a share owner key or refund/reward script will therefore not see its shared masternode in wallet-scoped listings or ownership metadata; please scan shares for owner/refund/reward ownership when IsShared() is true.

This was largely addressed by the rpc, gui commit (CheckWalletOwnsAnyOwnerKey / CheckWalletOwnsAnyPayout already match share owner keys and effective reward scripts in protx list wallet). The one residual gap — a share's refund script going unmatched when a distinct reward script is set — is fixed at the new head with CheckWalletOwnsAnyShareRefund (b5ce7e3), since the non-shared analog (the collateral UTXO via ListProTxCoins) cannot see the shared covenant output.

Code Review

Cumulative review at head a55b9f909120ac049010f26dcbd6cfb46b1371b1 finds no consensus or correctness blockers. The delta from a6752995 is a small wallet-gating cleanup in src/rpc/evo.cpp: it moves shared-masternode RPC helpers under ENABLE_WALLET, fixes two ParseBLSPubKey argument-name typos, and registers the two shared-prepare RPCs with the wallet commands. The complete current-head stack was also re-reviewed.

Source: reviewers — opus (general, dash-core-commit-history; completed), gpt-5.5 (general, dash-core-commit-history; failed/unparseable due revoked ACP credential). Verifier — opus.

  • STILL VALID: the prior ProDisTx signing-digest squash suggestion. The rebase rewrote 7f6f8834e9c to 5495e02f04f, but it remains a separate corrective commit for consensus code introduced by c7a7a408bdb.
  • STILL VALID: the prior deferred-dissolution ordering squash suggestion. The rebase rewrote 2c78c1b1397 to 4ac7f9b6d57, but it remains a separate corrective commit for the same earlier consensus commit.

- [SUGGESTION] <commit:5495e02f04f>:1: Squash the ProDisTx signing-digest fix into the shared-masternode consensus commit
  Commit 5495e02f04f ('evo: commit the signature count into the ProDisTx signing digest') patches a txid-malleability / consensus-safety defect in CProDisTx::MakeSignHash — code introduced earlier in the same PR by c7a7a408bdb ('evo: shared masternode consensus rules, state, and special transactions'). Without the signature count in the digest, a signed unanimous ProDisTx has outputs byte-identical to a valid unilateral variant and can be malleated to a different txid, invalidating pre-signed refund spends or actor-output CPFP children. Because Dash merges without squashing, keeping this as a separate tail commit permanently records an intermediate state on develop where the consensus-critical signing digest is known-broken. Please fixup 5495e02f04f into c7a7a408bdb and fold the rationale from its message into the consensus commit's body; the test changes can move with it or into the tests commit 8911c80c103.

  Commit 4ac7f9b6d57 ('evo: apply shared masternode dissolution in the collateral-spend phase') corrects a miner-liveness DoS in RebuildListFromBlock introduced earlier in the same PR by c7a7a408bdb. Previously, a ProDisTx ordered before a same-masternode ProUpShareTx / ProUpSharedRegTx removed the masternode before the later update was processed, failing BuildNewListFromBlock and aborting block-template production. Leaving this as a separate tail commit permanently records the broken ordering on the consensus-critical list-rebuild path. Please fixup 4ac7f9b6d57 into c7a7a408bdb; the functional regression case can move into tests commit 8911c80c103 or stay with the consensus commit.

P1 Badge Handle shared payees when choosing update-service fees

When a shared masternode has no operator payout script (for example, operatorReward is zero) and protx update_service is called without feeSourceAddress, the existing fallback in src/rpc/evo.cpp:1293-1294 calls GetOwnerPayouts(*dmn->pdmnState).front(). Shared states deliberately leave payouts empty and store payees in shares, so this dereferences an empty vector and can crash the node instead of creating the update. Make that fallback select a share reward/refund script or return a validation error requiring an explicit fee source.

Fixed in the rpc, gui commit (now b5ce7e3): with no operator payout script and no feeSourceAddress, protx update_service on a shared masternode throws masternode has no default fee source; specify feeSourceAddress instead of calling front() on the empty payout list. We deliberately do not fall back to share reward scripts: those belong to the participants, not the operator issuing the update, so there is no sensible default fee source. Covered in feature_masternode_shares.py.

428-446: 🗄️ Data Integrity & Integration | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick win

Commit the input and output counts, or reuse the existing hash helpers.

The writer concatenates all prevouts, then all sequences, then all outputs, with no element counts. The section boundaries are therefore implicit. Two transactions with different input counts can in principle produce the same byte string, because a shifted boundary can be absorbed by the following variable-length output data. CProRegTx::MakeSharedRegConsentHash avoids this by delegating to CalcTxInputsHash and CalcTxOutputsHash. Use the same helpers here, or write tx.vin.size() and tx.vout.size() before each section. This also removes the hand-rolled loops.

P2 Badge Expose share reward scripts to masternode RPCs

When the selected payee is shared, rewards now go to shares[i].RewardScript(), but the existing reporting paths still enumerate only GetOwnerPayouts(state), which is empty for shared states. Consequently, masternode winners omits the actual payees and masternode list payee reports UNKNOWN for every shared masternode (src/rpc/masternode.cpp:232 and :268-279), also breaking address-based filtering of those results. Update these consumers to enumerate the share reward scripts when IsShared() is true.

This was addressed by the rpc, gui commit (now b5ce7e3) via CDeterministicMNState::GetOwnerRewardScripts(): masternode winners, the masternodelist payee modes, the GUI list, and protx list/info wallet attribution all report each share's effective reward script for shared masternodes. masternode payments was already correct, since it derives payees from the consensus payment computation (GetBlockTxOuts).

P2 Badge Reject unsupported reward destinations before funding

When rewardAddress is a valid destination type other than P2PKH/P2SH, such as a witness address, this check accepts it and the RPC proceeds to fund and sign the transaction, but CProUpShareTx::IsTriviallyValid later rejects the generated script via IsValidPayoutScript. Consequently, protx update_share fails after transaction construction for an address the RPC explicitly accepted; validate the destination against the same P2PKH/P2SH restriction before calling FundSpecialTx.

Not reachable on Dash: CTxDestination has no witness variants (std::variant<CNoDestination, PKHash, ScriptHash>, script/standard.h) and DecodeDestination only produces PKHash/ScriptHash — bech32m strings are DIP-18 Platform addresses and decode to CNoDestination. Any address passing the RPC's IsValidDestination check therefore maps to exactly a P2PKH/P2SH script, which is precisely the set CProUpShareTx::IsTriviallyValid accepts (the shared-collateral template it additionally rejects is not expressible as an address). The RPC preflight is already equivalent to the consensus rule, so the claimed late-failure path has no realizable input.

P2 Badge Carry shared payees through extended masternode diffs

Once this field makes a state shared, its legacy payouts vector is empty, but CDeterministicMN::to_sml_entry() still copies only GetOwnerPayouts(state) and BuildSimplifiedDiff(..., extended=true) compares only scriptPayout, payouts, and the operator payout. Thus protx diff ... true never exposes a shared masternode's actual reward scripts, and a range containing only a ProUpShareTx can omit that masternode from the diff entirely because none of the compared fields changed. Extend the simplified extended entry, comparison, and JSON output to carry the share reward data.

Fixed at the new head: CSimplifiedMNListEntry gained a memory-only shares field (excluded from network serialization, operator==, and CalcHash, exactly like the existing mem-only DIP-0026 payouts), populated by to_sml_entry(), compared in BuildSimplifiedDiff's extended path, and emitted in extended JSON via ShareListToJson — so a ProUpShareTx-only range now appears in protx diff ... true and new shared entries expose their share data, while the consensus SML leaf format is unchanged (folded into 25a6fcb; unit test proving hash-invariance and extended-diff inclusion in fec8b6a).

check_sigs is hardcoded during list rebuild.

ProcessSpecialTxsInBlock passes fCheckCbTxMerkleRoots as check_sigs into CheckSpecialTxInner (line 821-822), so signature verification is skipped on paths where the caller opts out. This call always verifies dissolution signatures. Each dissolution then costs one to eight ECDSA public-key recoveries per rebuild, including reindex and diff reconstruction, and repeats work already done by CheckProDisTx.

Consider threading the caller's check_sigs value into RebuildListFromBlock and passing it here.

Re-sign the transaction after you append the extra template output.

Line 172 reuses good_hex, which the wallet already signed. Line 173 appends an output, so the existing input signatures no longer commit to the output set. The assertion on line 176 then depends on mempool checks running standardness before script verification. That ordering holds today, but the test would report scriptpubkey for the wrong reason if the check order changes.

Build the extra-output transaction from the unsigned combined hex and sign it again, so the only defect left is the extra template output.

P2 Badge Expose shared ownership through the Qt masternode interface

For shared states, payouts is empty and keyIDOwner is null, but the unchanged GetOwnerPayoutScripts()/MnEntryImpl path in src/node/interfaces.cpp:105-140 still exports only GetOwnerPayouts(state) and that singular owner key. The Qt ownership scan in src/qt/masternodelist.cpp:221-235 therefore cannot recognize a participant wallet by any share owner, refund, or reward script, while MasternodeEntry displays UNKNOWN for its payout. Expose the share keys and effective reward/refund scripts through this interface and use them for Qt ownership and display.

Fixed at the new head (b5ce7e3): MnEntry now exposes getShareOwnerKeyIds(), the Qt owned-masternode filter scans share owner keys via isSpendable(PKHash(...)), and MasternodeEntry no longer encodes the null singular owner key — it joins the share owner addresses for the display instead.

Guard owner_keys[ptx.actorIndex] against an out-of-range index.

In the non-unanimous branch, Sign indexes owner_keys with ptx.actorIndex. owner_keys holds 3 entries. The current cases never call Sign with unanimous=false and an out-of-range actorIndex, so there is no present defect. The out-of-range actor case at Line 695 uses unanimous=true. If a later case combines an out-of-range actorIndex with unanimous=false, the test reads out of bounds and the failure mode is undefined behavior instead of a clear assertion.

Assert the collision that the comment describes.

The comment states that a normal registration reusing a share owner key must be detected. The test only queries HasUniqueProperty for the share owner keys. It never adds a second, non-shared masternode whose keyIDOwner equals owner_keys[0] and asserts that AddMN rejects it. The stated invariant stays unproven.

Add a case that builds a non-shared CDeterministicMNState with keyIDOwner == owner_keys[0].GetPubKey().GetID() and asserts list.AddMN throws or fails, matching how the existing deterministic-MN tests assert duplicate-key rejection.

As per coding guidelines: "For Dash-specific review hotspots, prefer small tests that prove the invariant being changed."

Cover netInfo and pubKeyOperator in the consent digest test.

MakeSharedRegConsentHash also commits nType, nMode, netInfo and pubKeyOperator. The test does not mutate those fields. netInfo is serialized through a version-conditional NetInfoSerWrapper, and pubKeyOperator through CBLSLazyPublicKeyVersionWrapper. Both are the entries most likely to break in a later refactor. If either commitment is dropped, a third party can rewrite the operator key or the service address of a fully consented registration, and this test still passes.

Add mutation cases for the operator public key and the network address, plus nType and nMode, in the same style as the existing blocks.

Add a scriptRefund reuse case to match the comment.

The comment states that refund and reward scripts must not pay a table owner key or the voting key. The block tests only scriptReward. The refund side of the invariant stays untested, so a regression that drops the refund check would pass.

♻️ Proposed additional assertions
     {
         CollateralShares shares{two_shares};
         shares[0].scriptReward = GetScriptForDestination(PKHash(shares[1].keyIDOwner));
         CheckShares(shares, DummyJoinSigs(2), 0, 0, voting_id, "bad-protx-shares-payee-reuse");
         shares[0].scriptReward = GetScriptForDestination(PKHash(voting_key.GetPubKey()));
         CheckShares(shares, DummyJoinSigs(2), 0, 0, voting_id, "bad-protx-shares-payee-reuse");
     }
+    {
+        CollateralShares shares{two_shares};
+        shares[0].scriptRefund = GetScriptForDestination(PKHash(shares[1].keyIDOwner));
+        CheckShares(shares, DummyJoinSigs(2), 0, 0, voting_id, "bad-protx-shares-payee-reuse");
+    }
+    {
+        CollateralShares shares{two_shares};
+        shares[0].scriptRefund = GetScriptForDestination(PKHash(voting_key.GetPubKey()));
+        CheckShares(shares, DummyJoinSigs(2), 0, 0, voting_id, "bad-protx-shares-payee-reuse");
+    }

Note: the second case replaces shares[0].scriptRefund, so it no longer duplicates shares[1].scriptRefund. Confirm the expected reject reason if the implementation orders the duplicate-refund check first.

and reserves special transaction types 10 (ProDisTx), 11 (ProUpShareTx) and
12 (ProUpSharedRegTx) for the decentralized masternode shares DIP. The new
types are whitelisted in ContextualCheckTransaction unconditionally, matching
the asset lock/unlock pattern: pre-activation rejection happens inside the

P1 Badge Reject cross-scheme keys in shared registrar updates

When an existing legacy-scheme masternode holds the same underlying BLS key, this exact-encoding lookup misses it because legacy and basic encodings occupy different unique-property hashes. Unlike the ProRegTx and ordinary registrar paths, this permits unanimous shared owners to assign that key in its basic encoding, leaving two masternodes with the same operator key and violating the deterministic-list uniqueness invariant; use HasOperatorKeyUnderAnyScheme here as the companion paths do.

Fixed at the new head: CheckProUpSharedRegTx now uses HasOperatorKeyUnderAnyScheme(..., self=proTxHash), matching the ProRegTx and ordinary ProUpRegTx paths, and RebuildListFromBlock re-probes the evolving list before UpdateMN when the operator key changes, so a same-block pair cannot reach the collision through an exception (folded into 25a6fcb). The mempool cross-scheme guard also gained an UPDATE_SHARED_REGISTRAR branch so the pair is kept out of honest templates (e9e4438).

Preliminary review — Codex only

Five blocking correctness issues remain at eb53cbd: the new lifecycle transactions are excluded from merkle-block bloom matching, voting/payee invariants can be violated by registrar and same-block updates, extended SML diffs lose shared reward changes, Qt cannot identify ownership through share owner keys, and shared registrar updates do not enforce operator-key uniqueness under both BLS encodings or against evolving block state. The three prior commit-hygiene findings remain valid; the new registration serializer should also reject mismatched share/signature vectors, and the consensus commit message still names the wrong ProRegTx version.

These findings are from an automated code review. Verify each finding against the current code and only fix it if needed.

In `src/merkleblock.cpp`:
- [BLOCKING] src/merkleblock.cpp:40-49: Allow the new lifecycle transactions through merkle-block filtering
  CMerkleBlock calls CBloomFilter::IsRelevantAndUpdate only for special transaction types in this allowlist. TRANSACTION_PROVIDER_DISSOLVE, TRANSACTION_PROVIDER_UPDATE_SHARE, and TRANSACTION_PROVIDER_UPDATE_SHARED_REGISTRAR remain absent, so BIP37 clients cannot match these transactions through the proTxHash, reward script, or voting key handling added to common/bloom.cpp. The new tests invoke CBloomFilter directly and therefore bypass this outer gate; add the three types and cover the behavior through CMerkleBlock.

In `src/evo/smldiff.cpp`:
- [BLOCKING] src/evo/smldiff.cpp:134-138: Carry shared reward data through extended masternode diffs
  CDeterministicMN::to_sml_entry() supplies GetOwnerPayouts(state), which is empty for shared states, and the extended comparison checks only scriptPayout, payouts, and scriptOperatorPayout. Consequently, a range containing only a ProUpShareTx can omit the changed masternode from `protx diff ... true`, while newly added shared entries expose none of their share reward data. Add memory-only shared payout/share fields to CSimplifiedMNListEntry, include them in the extended comparison and JSON output, and keep them out of network serialization and CalcHash so the consensus SML leaf format remains unchanged.

In `src/node/interfaces.cpp`:
- [BLOCKING] src/node/interfaces.cpp:107-140: Expose share owner keys to the Qt ownership filter
  The interface now exports shared reward scripts, but getKeyIdOwner() still returns the shared state's null singular owner key. MasternodeList checks only that key, voting/collateral/operator ownership, and the reward scripts, so a participant wallet holding a share owner key while directing rewards elsewhere is omitted from the owned-masternode view even though it can authorize share updates and unilateral dissolution. Expose all share owner keys through MnEntry and scan them in the Qt filter; MasternodeEntry must also avoid encoding the null singular key as an owner address.

In `src/evo/specialtxman.cpp`:
- [BLOCKING] src/evo/specialtxman.cpp:1681-1686: Enforce operator-key uniqueness for shared registrar updates
  This check probes only the payload's exact basic-scheme CBLSLazyPublicKey encoding. It therefore misses an existing masternode holding the same underlying BLS key under the legacy encoding, unlike the ProRegTx and ordinary ProUpRegTx paths that use HasOperatorKeyUnderAnyScheme. RebuildListFromBlock also calls UpdateMN at line 686 without checking the evolving list, so two shared registrar updates in one block can target the same operator key after both pass against pindexPrev; the second update then reaches the collision through an exception, including on the block-template path. Use HasOperatorKeyUnderAnyScheme with proTxHash as self in both the transaction check and the evolving-list path before UpdateMN.
- [BLOCKING] src/evo/specialtxman.cpp:1621-1686: Preserve share payee separation when changing the voting key
  (existing thread: https://github.com/dashpay/dash/pull/7437#discussion_r3696863058)
  CheckProUpSharedRegTx accepts a voting key whose P2PKH destination is already used by a share's refund or effective reward script, producing a state that registration rejects. The per-transaction checks also use only the list at pindexPrev, while RebuildListFromBlock applies share and registrar updates at lines 643-686 without rechecking the invariant against the evolving state. A voting-key update to X and a reward update to X can therefore both pass against the prior state and leave the forbidden combination. Validate the proposed voting destination against all current share scripts and recheck the invariant after either update against the list rebuilt so far.

In `<commit:d2f6421715b>`:
- [SUGGESTION] <commit:d2f6421715b>:1: Squash the ProDisTx signing-digest fix into the shared-masternode consensus commit
  Commit d2f6421715b remains a separate correction to CProDisTx::MakeSignHash introduced by 0493061b170. Before this correction, the signature count was absent from the digest, allowing a signed unanimous dissolution to be reinterpreted as a different one-signature transaction with a different txid, even though the earlier commit message already says the count is committed. Fold the production changes into 0493061b170 and place the regression coverage with the corresponding consensus or shared-masternode tests so the permanent history does not retain the known-broken digest.

In `<commit:15d0c9f3c17>`:
- [SUGGESTION] <commit:15d0c9f3c17>:1: Squash the deferred-dissolution ordering fix into the shared-masternode consensus commit
  Commit 15d0c9f3c17 remains a separate correction to the list-rebuild ordering introduced by 0493061b170. In the earlier tree, ProDisTx removes the masternode during the provider-transaction loop, so a dissolution ordered before a same-masternode update makes the later update fail and aborts block-template production. The originating commit message already describes the corrected collateral-spend phase and order-independent behavior. Fold this correction into 0493061b170 and place its regression case with the relevant tests.

In `<commit:eb53cbd6321>`:
- [SUGGESTION] <commit:eb53cbd6321>:1: Fold the shared_sign correction into the original signing flow
  Commit eb53cbd6321 is a standalone correction to the shared signing flow introduced by 3062cb52504 and made count-sensitive by d2f6421715b. Without the guard, shared_sign accepts an already-signed unilateral ProDisTx but signs the unanimous signature-count digest; passing the resulting single actor signature through shared_combine creates a one-signature transaction whose signature does not verify. Fold the guard and help text into the commit introducing the count-sensitive RPC flow, with the functional assertion alongside the original shared-masternode tests.

In `src/evo/providertx.h`:
- [SUGGESTION] src/evo/providertx.h:188-199: Reject mismatched share and join-signature counts while serializing
  The writer emits shares_count from shares.size() but writes every element of vchJoinSigs without separately encoding its length. If the vectors differ, the writer silently emits a payload that the corresponding reader cannot round-trip: too few signatures make subsequent fields get consumed as signatures, while too many leave or shift extra bytes. Consensus validation rejects the semantic mismatch, but malformed in-memory objects cannot reach that validation coherently.

🔴 Blocking: Enforce operator-key uniqueness for shared registrar updates

This check probes only the payload's exact basic-scheme CBLSLazyPublicKey encoding. It therefore misses an existing masternode holding the same underlying BLS key under the legacy encoding, unlike the ProRegTx and ordinary ProUpRegTx paths that use HasOperatorKeyUnderAnyScheme. RebuildListFromBlock also calls UpdateMN at line 686 without checking the evolving list, so two shared registrar updates in one block can target the same operator key after both pass against pindexPrev; the second update then reaches the collision through an exception, including on the block-template path. Use HasOperatorKeyUnderAnyScheme with proTxHash as self in both the transaction check and the evolving-list path before UpdateMN.

Fixed at the new head — same change set as the codex thread above: HasOperatorKeyUnderAnyScheme in the per-transaction check, an evolving-list re-probe before UpdateMN in the rebuild path, and an UPDATE_SHARED_REGISTRAR branch in existsProviderTxCrossSchemeConflict (folded into 25a6fcb / e9e4438).

🟡 Suggestion: Reject mismatched share and join-signature counts while serializing

The writer emits shares_count from shares.size() but writes every element of vchJoinSigs without separately encoding its length. If the vectors differ, the writer silently emits a payload that the corresponding reader cannot round-trip: too few signatures make subsequent fields get consumed as signatures, while too many leave or shift extra bytes. Consensus validation rejects the semantic mismatch, but malformed in-memory objects cannot reach that validation coherently. Fail the write before emitting shares_count unless vchJoinSigs.size() equals shares.size(), following CompactSignatureFormatter's existing fail-fast serialization behavior.

An extended-address (version 3) ProRegTx with a non-zero share count is a
shared masternode registration: 2 to 8 participants each record an immutable
collateral amount, refund script and share owner key, plus an updatable
reward script. The new fields (share table, one 65-byte consent signature
per share, early-period length and penalty) are appended to the extended
payload after the DIP-0026 payouts field; a non-shared extended payload
serializes a zero share count and zeroed penalty fields. The extended
version is unreleased, so this wire change is safe.

Stateless validation (IsShareListTriviallyValid) enforces the DIP rules:
regular masternodes only, internal collateral, null owner key, empty payout
list, per-share minimum of 100 DASH summing exactly to the collateral,
penalty below the smallest share, early period of at most 420480 blocks,
P2PKH/P2SH refund and reward scripts that are not the template and do not pay
any table owner key or the voting key, no duplicate owner keys or refund
scripts, and one join signature per share.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Implements the consensus core of the decentralized masternode shares DIP. These
concerns are combined into one commit because they interlock through the shared
special-transaction machinery (the CheckSpecialTxInner dispatch, the special-tx
JSON writers, and the deterministic-list rebuild), and do not build in isolation.

- Shared registration: a version 3 (extended) ProRegTx with a non-empty share table is a
  shared registration. Stateless rules (share count 2..8, per-share minimum and
  exact collateral sum, penalty bounds, P2PKH/P2SH non-template refund/reward
  scripts, no duplicate owner keys or refund scripts, null keyIDOwner, empty
  DIP-0026 payouts) plus the SharedRegConsentHash digest that every share owner
  signs, binding the funding inputs, all outputs, the share table, the penalty
  terms and the registrar configuration. CheckProRegTx additionally requires the
  internal collateral to pay exactly the template script and enforces cross-list
  owner-key uniqueness.
- Masternode state: CDeterministicMNState stores the share table (excluded from
  joinSigs), early period and penalty, with a single Field_shares diff plus the
  penalty-term diff bits; share owner keys occupy the keyIDOwner uniqueness
  namespace so reuse is rejected in both directions; the null owner key of a
  shared masternode is handled in AddMN/RemoveMN and the revive path.
- ProDisTx (type 10): dissolves a shared masternode, refunding every share to
  its refund script. One signature (unilateral, penalised in the early period)
  or one per share (unanimous, penalty-free); the count is committed into the
  signed digest. Minimum-based output rules with a non-increasing required
  penalty make validity monotone. Removal happens in the collateral-spend phase
  of list construction, so an update and a dissolution of the same masternode
  are valid together in one block in either order.
- ProUpShareTx (type 11) updates one share's reward script; ProUpSharedRegTx
  (type 12) updates the operator and voting keys with a signature from every
  share owner. A plain ProUpRegTx on a shared masternode is invalid.
- Template covenant: consensus restricts creation of the 7-byte template output
  (only as the collateral of a valid shared registration, checked for every
  transaction including the coinbase) and its spending (only via a ProDisTx),
  hooked at mempool acceptance and block connection. Asset-unlock destinations
  are covered by the generic creation check.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The owner reward of a shared masternode is split across the share table with
DIP-0026's single rounding convention, using the recorded collateral amounts
as weights: every entry except the last receives
floor(ownerReward * amount / collateral) over a 128-bit intermediate and the
last entry receives the remainder, so the split sums exactly. Each portion
pays the share's reward script, falling back to its refund script when no
reward script is set; zero-value outputs are omitted and operator reward
handling is unchanged. The v24 multiplicity-correct coinbase matching already
handles duplicate reward scripts across shares.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
…tions

Shared registrations track each share owner key in mapProTxPubKeyIDs (the
null keyIDOwner must never enter the map, or two shared registrations would
silently collide on it and the wrong entry would be erased on removal), so
pending shared and non-shared registrations conflict on owner keys in both
directions. ProDisTx, ProUpShareTx and ProUpSharedRegTx register in
mapProTxRefs, which makes the existing spent-collateral sweep evict pending
updates for a masternode (and any competing dissolution) when its ProDisTx
confirms. ProUpSharedRegTx reuses the ProUpRegTx operator-key-change
bookkeeping: one pending key change per masternode, and eviction of
transactions signed with a replaced key. Competing dissolutions conflict
naturally on the collateral input; there is no replacement, first-seen wins.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The template output is nonstandard by Solver, so two targeted exemptions are
needed for well-formed shared-masternode transactions to relay: IsStandardTx
permits a template output only inside a ProRegTx (consensus restricts it to
the collateral slot of a valid shared registration), and AreInputsStandard
permits a template prevout only inside a ProDisTx (which spends it with an
empty scriptSig; 7 bytes of OP_DROP/OP_TRUE carry no script-evaluation DoS
surface). Everywhere else the template remains nonstandard, which is also the
required pre-activation posture.

Bloom filters and compact-filter element extraction (kept in lockstep, per
the note in both files) now cover shared registrations (every refund script,
reward script and share owner key), ProDisTx (proTxHash; the refund payments
are literal outputs already matched by the base filter), ProUpShareTx
(proTxHash and the new reward script) and ProUpSharedRegTx (proTxHash and
voting key, matching ProUpRegTx). Share data stays out of the simplified
masternode list entry hash, matching DIP-0026's treatment of payout data.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Adds the RPC surface for shared masternodes:

- protx register_shared_prepare appends the template collateral output and a
  v4 shared payload to a caller-supplied funding transaction (which must
  already contain every participant's inputs and change outputs; the consent
  digest binds all of them) and returns the consent hash.
- protx shared_sign signs a shared registration, dissolution or shared
  registrar update with every share owner key the wallet holds; protx
  shared_combine inserts the collected signatures and can submit dissolutions
  and registrar updates directly (a combined registration still needs its
  funding inputs signed, then sendrawtransaction).
- protx dissolve builds, signs and submits a unilateral ProDisTx, paying the
  early-period penalty when required; with submit=false it returns hex
  suitable for offline standby storage (ProDisTx validity is monotone).
  protx dissolve_prepare builds the unanimous, penalty-free variant.
- protx update_share updates one share's reward address with that share
  owner's key; protx update_shared_registrar_prepare builds an unsigned
  ProUpSharedRegTx with signed fee inputs (re-signed on combine, since
  inserting signatures changes the payload).

protx update_registrar now rejects shared masternodes up front instead of
dereferencing their (empty) payout list.

evo_sharedmn_tests covers the template script constant and its script-layer
spendability, the share-list validation matrix, shared payload serialization
round-trips, consent-digest field coverage, canonical (low-S) signature
verification including a malleated high-S rejection, the amount-weighted
reward split, state serialization and single-logical-field share diffs,
bidirectional owner-key uniqueness (pinning the untagged unique-property
hashing it relies on), and the full ProDisTx validation matrix including
monotone validity across the early-period boundary.

feature_masternode_shares exercises the feature end to end on regtest:
registration via prepare/sign/combine, reward split to the duff via
getblocktemplate, template covenant rejections at the mempool, reward script
updates, unanimous registrar updates, plain ProUpRegTx rejection, penalized
unilateral dissolution with exact refund outputs, standby dissolutions
becoming valid across the early-period boundary, and penalty-free unanimous
dissolution.

protx register_shared_prepare now runs the payload through the same stateless
validation consensus applies (IsTriviallyValid), so consensus-invalid terms —
share sums, penalty bounds, payee reuse, script types — fail immediately with
a clear error instead of after every participant has signed the consent hash
and the funding inputs are finalized.

The registration help text now points participants at the standby-dissolution
workflow the DIP recommends: create "protx dissolve <proTxHash> <shareIndex>
<fee> false" once the registration confirms and store the hex with the
refund-key backup, so a lost owner key can never strand the principal.

…ternode

A ProDisTx whose masternode is not in the previous block's list is now
invalid in blocks exactly as it always was in the mempool. The mempool
could never hold a dissolution for an unconfirmed registration anyway
(the masternode is not in the list yet), so no miner could assemble the
pair from normal operation; only a hand-crafted block could, and a
standby dissolution simply becomes valid one block after registration.

Everything a dissolution is validated against (refund scripts, amounts,
registration height) is immutable after registration, so the
pindexPrev-based check in CheckProDisTx is complete and blocks need no
re-validation against the evolving list. This deletes the
SpecialTxContext plumbing and the RebuildListFromBlock re-check, and
dissolution signatures are now verified exactly once per block, gated by
the same check_sigs flag as every other provider transaction (they were
previously verified twice for fresh blocks, and unconditionally during
sync where other types skip them).

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
… submit time

SignAndSendSpecialTx ignored the completeness of the wallet signing
step, so submitting a transaction whose inputs this wallet cannot sign
died later in the mempool with an opaque script-verification error
("Operation not valid with the current stack size"). Check the signing
result and fail with the actual cause and the recovery path instead.

The typical way to hit this is running "protx shared_combine" for a
ProUpSharedRegTx on a wallet other than the one that ran
update_shared_registrar_prepare: combining inserts the share signatures
into the payload, which invalidates the prepare-time fee-input
signatures, and only the preparing wallet can re-sign them. Document
that wallet affinity in both RPCs' help text.

Unit: bloom filters match a shared registration on every share's
refund script, effective reward script and share owner key id, and the
lifecycle transactions (ProDisTx, ProUpShareTx, ProUpSharedRegTx) on
proTxHash plus their own new elements; BLOOM_UPDATE_ALL inserts the
proTxHash on a registration or reward-script match so a watcher follows
the masternode lifecycle automatically. Compact-filter element
extraction is checked against the same field set, guarding the sync
requirement between CheckSpecialTransactionMatchesAndUpdate and
ExtractSpecialTxFilterElements.

Functional: disconnecting a block containing a ProUpShareTx rolls the
share table back and reconnecting replays it; disconnecting a
dissolution restores the masternode with an identical share table and
registration height and returns the ProDisTx to the mempool (where the
restored masternode makes it valid again), and reconnecting removes
both.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The vbparams start time rendered as 0 (self.mocktime is unset when set_test_params runs) and the min_activation_height of 100 falls inside the ~119 blocks the framework setup mines, so v24 was already active when run_test began and activate_v24() was a silent no-op: no pre-activation behavior was ever exercised. Raise the earliest activation height to 250 and assert the pre-activation window actually exists.

New coverage: each lifecycle transaction type (ProDisTx, ProUpShareTx, ProUpSharedRegTx) carries a trivially-valid payload and is driven through block connection before activation, rejecting with its dedicated too-early reason; the same dissolution after activation fails at the masternode lookup instead, proving the gate itself caused the rejections. The wallet path is also closed pre-activation (register_shared_prepare requires payload version 3).

Also exercise the shared-specific revive gate: an operator-key change via ProUpSharedRegTx resets operator fields and PoSe-bans the masternode, and the new operator's ProUpServTx must revive it despite the null keyIDOwner (without the IsShared() carve-out in the revive condition a banned shared masternode could never be revived). Verify the reward split resumes from the unchanged share table afterwards.
…ters

GetOwnerPayouts on a shared masternode state is empty (the owner reward derives from the share table instead), which left shared masternodes invisible wherever that helper fed a display or wallet filter: masternode winners printed an empty payee list, masternodelist's payee mode showed UNKNOWN, the GUI could not attribute a masternode to a wallet holding a share, protx list wallet skipped it, protx info reported hasOwnerKey/ownsPayeeScript false, and update_service's default fee-source fallback called front() on an empty vector (undefined behavior, reachable by any shared masternode operator omitting feeSourceAddress with no operator payout script set).

Add CDeterministicMNState::GetOwnerRewardScripts(), returning each share's effective reward script for shared masternodes and the payout-list scripts otherwise, and use it in those display and filter paths. Wallet attribution also recognizes share owner keys (hasOwnerKey, protx list wallet). update_service now fails with a clear error asking for an explicit feeSourceAddress: a shared masternode's reward scripts belong to the participants, not the operator running the command, so there is no sensible default.

Pushed b5ce7e366cbd, addressing all five outstanding blockers plus the carried-forward suggestions:

  • merkle-block filtering: the three lifecycle types are in the CMerkleBlock allowlist, with a test through CMerkleBlock itself.
  • voting/payee separation: CheckProUpSharedRegTx validates the new voting destination against all share scripts; block processing rechecks the invariant (and cross-encoding operator-key uniqueness) against the evolving list for same-block pairs; mempool pair guards (both directions, checked pairwise per pending transaction) keep an honest miner from assembling a combination consensus rejects.
  • operator-key uniqueness: HasOperatorKeyUnderAnyScheme in the shared registrar path + an UPDATE_SHARED_REGISTRAR branch in the cross-scheme mempool probe.
  • extended SML diffs: memory-only shares field on CSimplifiedMNListEntry — extended diffs and JSON carry share data, consensus leaf hash unchanged (unit-tested).
  • Qt ownership: share owner keys exposed through MnEntry and scanned by the owned-masternode filter; the null singular owner key is no longer rendered as an address; protx list wallet also matches share refund destinations.
  • serializer: fail-fast on a share/join-signature count mismatch.

History rework per the commit-hygiene findings: the three corrective tail commits are folded into the commits that introduced the affected code (production hunks into evo/rpc commits, regression tests into the test commits), and the consensus commit message now says version 3, not version 4. Every rewritten commit was syntax-checked individually; the full unit suite and feature_masternode_shares, feature_masternode_payout_shares, feature_dip3_deterministicmns, and feature_asset_locks pass at the head.

CI notes: the Lint failure was cppcheck functionStatic on CompactSignatureFormatter::Ser/Unser — fixed by making them static. The linux64_asan failure is the QDBus test_dash-qt leak that also fails on develop (e.g. run 31420091602 on e19dfeaac, pre-dating this PR) — environmental, not PR-caused; a suppression belongs in a separate PR.

P2 Badge Revalidate service updates after shared key rotation

When a block places a ProUpSharedRegTx that rotates the operator key before a ProUpServTx for the same masternode, the service transaction was validated against pindexPrev and can therefore be signed by the old operator; this branch installs the new key, but the later service-update branch applies the old operator's transaction to the evolving state without rechecking its signature, allowing a displaced operator to restore its payout/service fields and immediately revive the masternode after the unanimous rotation. Reject this pairing/order or revalidate the service update against the evolving operator key.

P2 Badge Avoid baking the early penalty into the recommended standby

When this command is followed during the early period, omitting the fifth payPenalty argument makes it default to true, so the stored transaction permanently transfers nEarlyPenalty away from the actor even if it is not broadcast until years after the penalty period ends. Since the text promises recovery of the participant's principal and the penalty may approach the entire share, recommend ... <fee> false false for a post-boundary standby (or explicitly recommend storing both variants and warn about the loss).

Preliminary review — Codex only

Two blocking issues remain: operator-authorized lifecycle transactions are not revalidated after a same-block shared registrar key rotation, and the recommended standby-dissolution command can permanently pay an avoidable early penalty while promising principal recovery. The RPC result documentation for update_share and one stale version reference in the RPC commit message also need correction.

- [BLOCKING] src/evo/specialtxman.cpp:477-485: Revalidate old-operator transactions after a shared registrar update
  CheckProUpServTx and CheckProUpRevTx verify signatures against the operator key in the list at pindexPrev, but RebuildListFromBlock applies them to the evolving state without rechecking authorization. If a ProUpSharedRegTx rotates the operator key earlier in the block, a later ProUpServTx signed by the displaced operator can overwrite service and operator-payout fields and revive the masternode under the new key. A later old-key ProUpRevTx can reset the newly installed operator key and ban the masternode. Revalidate operator-authorized lifecycle transactions against the evolving operator key, or reject these same-block orderings; mempool conflict handling is not sufficient because a miner can construct the block directly.
