Maintenance
Consumed continuously to keep the facility running. Starve it and it degrades.
SuppliedOrder boards update in real time. The settlement desk clears trades as fast as they come in, bearer ciphers verified and logged.
StarvedThe settlement desk has stopped verifying trades — nobody's willing to risk a bad cipher on an unbacked authenticator. Orders pile up unmatched.
Upgrade Chain
Trade Concourse has no upgrade path — it is built once, at this level.
