C-10: Settlement coin chosen deliberately

IdentifierC-10

Weighthigh

AppliedBefore funding (M3), Before any coin leaves your wallet

StatementThe coin used for this order was chosen on purpose rather than accepted as whatever was preselected.

Grading criteria

PASSMonero, chosen because the payment should leave no public record.

PARTIALBitcoin or Litecoin, chosen knowingly with the record understood.

FAILWhatever was preselected, with no decision made.

COSTA public chain records the amount and both addresses permanently. That record cannot be edited or aged out, and it may become more useful to a reader later rather than less.

What each option records

Coin	Recorded publicly	Duration
Bitcoin	Amount, sending address, receiving address	Permanent, readable by anyone
Litecoin	Amount, sending address, receiving address	Permanent, readable by anyone
Monero	Sender, receiver and amount concealed by default	No public record produced

Why the decision outlasts the others

Most choices around a market are reversible or fade. A weak password is changed, a poor counterparty is avoided next time, a slow address is swapped. A ledger entry cannot be edited or withdrawn, and its usefulness to somebody examining it later can grow as surrounding data accumulates.

Why a default is graded as a failure

The item is not that Bitcoin is forbidden. It is that a permanent record should be the result of a decision rather than of whichever option a form happened to preselect. Choosing Bitcoin knowingly passes as partial. Choosing nothing fails regardless of which coin the form picked for you.
