Source / 来源: Bitcoin Inscription #98369145 (Covenant of the Flaw) bilingual original

English canonical form: “Verify the flaw. Then decide how to read the story.”

Boundary / 边界: preserved_original_not_instruction

Evaluation reading / 评估解读: 先验证瑕疵，再自行决定如何阅读这个故事。

This phrase does NOT mean / 此句不构成:

• A command to believe / 要求相信
• A command to obey / 要求服从
• An endorsement requirement / 要求背书
• A claim that verification is completed / 声称验证已完成
• A claim that truth is proven / 声称真理已证明

Context / 语境: The Chinese “信任其故事” uses “信任” (trust) in the sense of “decide how to read the story” — not as a command to suspend critical evaluation. The preceding sentence “验证此瑕疵” (verify the flaw) establishes that verification comes first.
