The name
The first 48 bits are six bytes. Divide each byte by 26 and the remainder picks a letter, A through Z. Those letters are DOCHLY.

Ticker
AWZF
A quantum computer chose this name, chose this ticker, and made this coin character. The letters and the pixels are one measurement from IQM Garnet.
01 — The character
This is the coin character. IQM Garnet drew it. Every black square is a 1 the processor returned. Every white square is a 0. The face is 8 pixels wide and 6 pixels tall, and it is the last 48 bits of the job.
The top of the figure is almost empty: two black pixels, then open white. Lower down the black fills in, until the last row is eight 1s in a row. The character stands on a solid base because that is where the bits landed.
The page is built the same way. It starts white, like the top of the mark, and ends in a solid black field, because the final shot was 11111111.
02 — Why this coin is different
A person wrote one rule, and wrote it before the quantum computer finished. After that, the processor chose everything the rule could hold: the name, the ticker, and every pixel of the character.
The first 48 bits are six bytes. Divide each byte by 26 and the remainder picks a letter, A through Z. Those letters are DOCHLY.
The next 32 bits use the same rule. Four bytes become A, W, Z, and F. The ticker is AWZF.
The last 48 bits stay a picture. One bit is one pixel, read left to right, top to bottom. That grid is the coin’s face.
letter = A + (byte mod 26)
Zero is A. Twenty-five is Z. The table is the whole name and the whole ticker, with nothing added after the measurement.

The rule had a hard stop. Fewer than 128 bits, and it would have published nothing. The job returned 128: sixteen shots, eight bits each. Every shot was different. Every shot was kept. Sorted and joined, they are the coin. The identity uses that string, then stops.
03 — The sixteen shots
Garnet ran the circuit 16 times. Each run produced 8 bits. The rule sorts those strings from the smallest to the largest and joins them. Shots 1 through 10 become the letters. Shots 11 through 16, stacked, are the character.

04 — The machine
IQM Garnet is a superconducting quantum processor with 20 computational qubits, built by IQM. The circuits are cooled until they stop behaving like ordinary electronics. This job used eight of those qubits.
Each qubit goes through a Hadamard gate. That gate takes a definite 0 and sets an equal superposition of 0 and 1. The measurement then turns the superposition into a single bit. Eight qubits, sixteen times.
On a perfect simulator, each of those qubits would be a fair coin. Garnet is hardware, so the file is the record the processor actually returned. That record is the one this coin uses. The measurements are the source of the name, the ticker, and the face. The arithmetic around them was fixed before the result came back.

05 — The coin
DOCHLY is live on pump.fun. The picture on the coin is this character, scaled up with hard pixels so the measurement stays visible. The sixteen shots above are enough to rebuild the name, the ticker, and the face.
