Evidence summary #

USTB upgrade EOA 0xad309BB6f13074128b4F23EF9EA2fe8552AfCA83 sent upgrade tx 0x3396a409e571eef0c12a4c46b3b01c3431a9ca7ba340bd95ebd17949faac96d3 (block 22933833, 2026-07-16) calling upgrade() on ProxyAdmin 0xCb8d325C0Af19697B8454481602097f93aa9040F. USCC upgrade EOA 0x8abC89D9b56dFD90dA18e8E18CFaC9111100bDd1 sent upgrade tx 0x332573cad1b7a57ae7c5652637f660006c7eed2655d9cd9cc43e810ff2062c85 (block 22933887, same date). No timelock exists (data-cache timelock_address = null). No governance queue precedes upgrades. T-09 suppression rule (tx from timelock fed by queued governance proposal) cannot engage. Signal WOULD FIRE on every future upgrade — structural not transient. T-09 v1 phase-2 signal; yellow for elevated posture assessment.
