📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughAdds Conway validation for stake credential and DRep certificate deposits and deregistration refunds. The rule reads protocol parameters and optional ledger deposit state, tracks state across certificates, applies withdrawals before deregistration, and rejects invalid registration, refund, registration-state, and reward-balance conditions. The rule is included in the Dijkstra validation pipeline. Production-path tests cover key-hash and native-script credentials, certificate variants, withdrawals, and state folding. Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to The PR adds stricter certificate deposit and refund validation, but affected ledger-state providers must support the new recorded-deposit capability and provide consistent state during validation; otherwise valid transactions could be rejected or evaluated against mixed state. The change is mergeable with explicit owner awareness and follow-up on provider compatibility and snapshot semantics. 🚥 Pre-merge checks | ✅ 4✅ Passed checks (4 passed)

loadDRepkeys the cache on(cred.CredType, cred.Credential), but it resolves the registration withls.DRepRegistration(cred.Credential), which uses the hash alone. Two DRep certificates that carry the same hash with differentCredTypetherefore write two cache entries that describe one ledger registration, and the second certificate does not observe the state folded by the first.

Integration follow-up: testing the combined certificate-deposit and script-authorization changes reproduced an extraneous native-script witness in the legacy stake-registration fixture. Legacy registration has no credential-auth purpose, so the fixture was corrected to omit that witness; explicit registration/delegation cases retain their credential witnesses. Validation: |

Issue: Legacy stake deregistration incorrectly uses the current key deposit
File: ledger/conway/rules.go
PR-introduced line: 3469
The newly added validation rejects a legacy StakeDeregistrationCertificate
when the credential's recorded deposit differs from the current KeyDeposit:
if supplied == nil && state.deposit != keyDeposit {
return CertificateRefundIncorrectError{
CertificateType: certificateType,
Supplied: keyDeposit,
Expected: state.deposit,
}
}A credential may have registered before the KeyDeposit protocol parameter
changed. Its legacy deregistration should refund the deposit recorded in ledger
state, rather than require that deposit to equal the current parameter.
There is also a related integration gap in the pre-existing value-conservation
logic at ledger/conway/rules.go:1882:
consumedValue.Add(
consumedValue,
new(big.Int).SetUint64(uint64(tmpPparams.KeyDeposit)),
)Although this line predates the PR, the PR introduces
StakeCredentialDepositState without updating value conservation to use the
recorded deposit. Consequently, a valid historical refund fails value
conservation.
Regression test
Add this test to ledger/conway/certificate_deposits_test.go:
func TestLegacyStakeDeregistrationRefundsRecordedDeposit(t *testing.T) {
pp := certificateDepositPparams()
pool := common.PoolKeyHash(common.Blake2b224Hash([]byte("pool")))
fixture := newCertificateDepositCredentialFixture(
t,
common.CredentialTypeAddrKeyHash,
)
credentialCbor := []any{
fixture.credential.CredType,
fixture.credential.Credential.Bytes(),
}
certificateCbor, err := cbor.Encode([]any{
uint64(common.CertificateTypeStakeDeregistration),
credentialCbor,
})
require.NoError(t, err)
// The credential registered before KeyDeposit changed, so its implicit
// legacy deregistration refund is the deposit retained in ledger state,
// rather than the current protocol-parameter value.
recordedDeposit := uint64(pp.KeyDeposit) + 1
tx := certificateDepositTransaction(
t,
fixture,
[][]byte{certificateCbor},
int64(recordedDeposit),
0,
)
baseState := mockledger.NewLedgerStateBuilder().
WithUtxos([]common.Utxo{{
Id: shelley.NewShelleyTransactionInput(
certificateDepositTxId,
0,
),
Output: shelley.ShelleyTransactionOutput{
OutputAmount: certificateDepositInputAmount,

}}).
WithNetworkId(1).
WithPoolRegistrations([]common.PoolRegistrationCertificate{{

WithRewardAccountCredentialBalance(fixture.credential, 0).
Build()
ls := certificateDepositLedgerState{
LedgerState: baseState,
deposits: map[certificateDepositCredentialKey]uint64{
{
credType: fixture.credential.CredType,
hash: fixture.credential.Credential,
}: recordedDeposit,
},
}
require.NoError(t, runCertificateDepositProductionRules(t, tx, ls, pp))
}Run the regression test with:
go test ./ledger/conway \
-run TestLegacyStakeDeregistrationRefundsRecordedDeposit \
-count=1Current failure:
value not conserved: consumed 2000002000000, produced 2000002000001
This demonstrates that the implementation credits the current KeyDeposit
instead of the credential's recorded deposit.
A legacy stake deregistration carries no supplied refund, so comparing the recorded deposit against the current KeyDeposit rejected any credential that registered before the parameter changed. Drop that comparison. Value conservation took the refund from the current KeyDeposit as well, so a valid historical refund failed conservation. Take it from the deposit recorded in ledger state when the state reports one. The current parameter remains a fallback for a state that cannot, and UtxoValidateCertificateDeposits already fails closed on that same state. Signed-off-by: Chris Gianelloni <wolf31o2@blinklabs.io>

Half right, and the half that is wrong is worth recording because I tested it both ways.
Making value conservation fail closed to match, which is the consistency this asks for, rejects six Amaru conformance vectors, among them DELEG/Unregister_stake_credentials/deregistering_returns_the_deposit. The two rules do not reach the missing capability on the same transactions: value conservation needs a refund for every legacy deregistration, while UtxoValidateCertificateDeposits only asks for the deposit once IsStakeCredentialRegistered resolves the credential as registered. All 315 vectors pass with the fallback, so the fallback stays and the comment now records why rather than claiming symmetry that does not hold.
The premise that no state implements the capability is also not quite right going forward: blinklabs-io/dingo#3642 is the production implementation and is open alongside this. When the capability is present, the recorded deposit is used; when it is absent, the behaviour is what main already does.
TestUtxoValidateValueNotConservedUtxo now supplies the capability, so the recorded-deposit path is the one it covers.

Confirmed accurate on the mechanism, and merged with it as designed rather than
changed.
certificateDepositFoldState does return CertificateDepositStateUnavailableError
when a credential resolves as registered and the ledger state does not implement
StakeCredentialDepositState, and nothing in this repository provides that
method outside the test wrapper. The asymmetry with
UtxoValidateValueNotConservedUtxo is deliberate and documented in place: value
conservation runs for every legacy deregistration, so failing closed there
rejects six Amaru conformance vectors, while the deposit rule needs the
capability only once a credential resolves as registered.
Where this matters is release ordering, not correctness of the rule. A consumer
that adopts a release carrying this rule before it implements
StakeCredentialDeposit will reject deregistrations of registered credentials.
The Dingo-side implementation is blinklabs-io/dingo#3642, which is open and not
merged, so that consumer must land its implementation before adopting a
gouroboros release containing this change. Recorded as an ordering constraint
rather than left implicit.
UtxoValidateValueNotConservedUtxo fell back to the current KeyDeposit when a ledger state could not report the recorded deposit, while UtxoValidateCertificateDeposits failed closed on that same state for the same certificate. Two rules disagreeing about what such a state may do is worse than either answer, so value conservation fails closed too. Type CertificateRefundIncorrectError.Supplied as int64 to match its deposit counterpart, and share the registration transition between legacy type-0 registration and registerStake so the already-registered check and the state write cannot drift.

Failing closed here rejects six Amaru conformance vectors. Value conservation runs for every legacy deregistration, while UtxoValidateCertificateDeposits only needs the capability once a credential resolves as registered, so the two rules do not reach the missing capability on the same transactions.
