| 12 | +# Re-join & Vouch – Getting Your 0L Account Moving Again (v8 Upgrade) |
| 13 | + |
| 14 | +**For Founder accounts** – anyone who held 0L coins before the Level-8 upgrade |
| 15 | + |
| 16 | +This guide implements the community-approved **FILO** (First-In-Last-Out) proposal ([read the rationale](https://docs.openlibra.io/blog/proposals/back-to-filo-the-future-of-open-libra)). Learn why you must run a "re-join" action and receive a "vouch" from a friend to reactivate your account. |

| 19 | + |
| 20 | +## Prerequisites |
| 21 | + |
| 22 | +### Install the CLI |
| 23 | +All steps require the **Open Libra command-line tool** v8.0+: |
| 24 | + |
| 25 | +```bash |
| 26 | +libra --version # Must show version ≥ 8.0 |
| 27 | +``` |
| 28 | + |
| 29 | +If not installed, follow → Install the Open Libra CLI from [source code](https://docs.openlibra.io/getting-started/install-open-libra-cli) or [binaries](https://docs.openlibra.io/getting-started/install-open-libra-cli/install-open-libra-cli-binaries) |
| 30 | + |
| 31 | +### Verify You're a Founder |
| 32 | +```bash |
| 33 | +libra query view 0x1::founder::is_founder <your-address> |
| 34 | +``` |
| 35 | +If this returns **true**, continue with this guide. |
| 36 | + |
| 37 | +## Quick Start ⚡ |
| 38 | + |
| 39 | +1. **Re-join the network** |
| 40 | +```bash |
| 41 | +libra txs user re-join |
| 42 | +``` |
| 43 | + |
| 44 | +2. **Get vouched by a friend** |
| 45 | + Ask them to run: |
| 46 | +```bash |
| 47 | +libra txs user vouch --vouch-for <your-address> |
| 48 | +``` |
| 49 | + |
| 50 | +3. **Wait for next epoch** (~24 hours) |
| 51 | +Your coins will begin unlocking automatically |
| 52 | + |
| 53 | + |
| 54 | +## Understanding the Process |
| 55 | + |
| 56 | +### What is FILO? |
| 57 | + |
| 58 | +FILO (First-In-Last-Out) is the v8 migration strategy that: |
| 59 | +- **Resets** all founder accounts to ensure fair participation |
| 60 | +- **Restarts** the gradual coin unlock schedule |
| 61 | +- **Requires** social proof via vouching to prevent abuse |
| 62 | + |

| 64 | + |
| 65 | +### Why These Steps? |
| 66 | + |
| 67 | +| Step | Purpose | Technical Details | |
| 68 | +|------|---------|-------------------| |
| 69 | +| **Re-join** | Signals your return and migrates account to v8 format | Calls `filo_migration::maybe_migrate` which initializes Activity, Founder status, SlowWallet reset, Vouch structures, and PageRank | |
| 70 | +| **Vouch** | Provides social proof you're a real person | Creates on-chain attestation via `vouch::vouch_for`, expires after 45 epochs | |
| 71 | + |
| 72 | +## Step-by-Step Instructions |
| 73 | + |
| 74 | +### 1. Prepare Your Account |
| 75 | + |
| 76 | +**Requirements:** |
| 77 | +- Your 24-word mnemonic phrase |
| 78 | +- Latest 0L CLI installed |
| 79 | +- Network connection |
| 80 | + |
| 81 | +### 2. Execute Re-join |
| 82 | + |
| 83 | +```bash |
| 84 | +libra txs user re-join |
| 85 | +``` |
| 86 | + |
| 87 | +**What happens:** |
| 88 | +- Updates your account to v8 data structures |
| 89 | +- Resets your slow wallet to 0 unlocked balance |
| 90 | +- Initializes vouch and trust systems |
| 91 | +- Returns a transaction hash on success |
| 92 | + |
| 93 | +### 3. Obtain a Vouch |
| 94 | + |
| 95 | +Share your address with any active 0L user and request: |
| 96 | +```bash |
| 97 | +libra txs user vouch --vouch-for <your-address> |
| 98 | +``` |
| 99 | + |
| 100 | +**Vouch rules:** |
| 101 | +- Any active user can vouch (once per day) |
| 102 | +- Vouches last 45 epochs (~45 days) |
| 103 | +- Required for sending transactions |
| 104 | + |
| 105 | +### 4. Verify Success |
| 106 | + |
| 107 | +```bash |
| 108 | +libra query view 0x1::reauthorization::is_v8_authorized <your-address> |
| 109 | +``` |
| 110 | +Returns **true** when fully authorized. |
| 111 | + |
| 112 | + |
| 113 | +## Common Questions |
| 114 | + |
| 115 | +### Do I need a vouch for coins to unlock? |
| 116 | +**No.** Unlocking begins automatically after re-join at the next epoch. Vouches are only required for *sending* transactions. |
| 117 | + |
| 118 | +### Why are my coins locked after re-join? |
| 119 | +FILO resets your unlocked balance to 0. The first unlock happens at the next epoch boundary (~24h), regardless of vouch status. |
| 120 | + |
| 121 | +### Can I re-join multiple times? |
| 122 | +**Yes.** The system safely ignores duplicate re-joins. |
| 123 | + |
| 124 | +### What happens when my vouch expires? |
| 125 | +- Your balance continues unlocking normally |
| 126 | +- Outgoing transactions fail with `EU_NO_VOUCHER` |
| 127 | +- Simply request a new vouch to resume sending |
| 128 | + |
| 129 | +### Can I vouch for myself? |
| 130 | +**No.** Self-vouching is blocked with error `EU_SELF_VOUCH`. |
| 131 | + |
| 132 | + |
| 133 | +## Troubleshooting |
| 134 | + |
| 135 | +| Error | Cause | Solution | |
| 136 | +|-------|-------|----------| |
| 137 | +| `ENOT_MIGRATED_FROM_V7` | Haven't run re-join | Execute `libra txs user re-join` | |
| 138 | +| `EFOUNDER_HAS_NO_FRIENDS` | Founder without valid vouch | Get vouched by an active user | |
| 139 | +| `EU_NO_VOUCHER` | No valid vouch found | Request a vouch from a friend | |
| 140 | +| `EU_ACCOUNT_NOT_INITIALIZED` | Voucher hasn't migrated | Voucher must run re-join first | |
| 141 | +| `EU_SELF_VOUCH` | Attempted self-vouch | Ask someone else | |
| 142 | +| `EU_ALREADY_VOUCHED` | Duplicate vouch exists | Already vouched - no action needed | |
| 143 | +| `EU_VOUCH_LIMIT_EPOCH` | Voucher's daily limit reached | Wait 24h or find another voucher | |
| 144 | +| `EU_REVOKE_COOLDOWN` | Revoked too recently | Wait 3 epochs before new actions | |
| 145 | +| Balance shows `0 / X` unlocked | FILO reset | Wait one epoch for first unlock | |
| 146 | +| Lost mnemonic | No recovery possible | Mnemonic required - treat like hardware wallet seed | |

| 152 | +<summary>🔧 Advanced Implementation Details</summary> |
| 153 | + |
| 154 | +### Core Functions |
| 155 | + |
| 156 | +**Re-join Migration** (`filo_migration::maybe_migrate`): |
| 157 | +- `activity::migrate` - Marks account as v8 active |
| 158 | +- `founder::migrate` - Handles founder-specific setup |
| 159 | +- `slow_wallet::filo_migration_reset` - Resets unlock schedule to 0 |
| 160 | +- `vouch::init` - Creates vouch data structures |
| 161 | +- `page_rank_lazy::maybe_initialize_trust_record` - Initializes trust scoring |
| 162 | + |
| 163 | +**Authorization Check** (`reauthorization::assert_v8_authorized`): |
| 164 | +- Verifies migration status via `activity::is_initialized` |
| 165 | +- For founders: requires `founder::has_friends` (valid vouches) |
| 166 | +- For community wallets: requires donor authorization |
| 167 | + |
| 168 | +**Vouch System** (`vouch` module): |
| 169 | +- Vouches stored in `ReceivedVouches` and `GivenVouches` resources |
| 170 | +- 45-epoch expiration via `EXPIRATION_ELAPSED_EPOCHS` |
| 171 | +- Automatic garbage collection of expired vouches |
| 172 | +- Anti-sybil protections via ancestry checks |
| 173 | + |
| 174 | +### Validator-Specific Requirements |
| 175 | + |
| 176 | +Validators need enhanced social proof: |
| 177 | +- Required vouches: `sqrt(validator_count) + 1` |
| 178 | +- Calculated by `proof_of_fee::calculate_min_vouches_required` |
| 179 | +- Blocks validator actions if threshold not met |
| 180 | + |
| 181 | +### Module Interaction Flow |
