What It Is

Bernstein's ChaCha20 stream cipher (2008) --- cryptographic-strength PRNG, the keystream of TLS 1.3 / QUIC / WireGuard. Detection-ceiling source: the framework should find ChaCha20 keystream geometrically indistinguishable from White Noise --- a stronger null than MT19937 (cryptographic vs statistical PRNG)

Interpretation

Standard analysis sees: rich, high-entropy values; aperiodic / broadband; high-complexity (noise-like); high-dimensional / space-filling. The atlas detects no named structure beyond this. It sits beside Wichmann-Hill in the atlas (standard-bank rank 21) — a neighbor conventional features miss.

What the atlas adds

Nothing beyond the standard reading — this source’s structure is already captured by standard features; the atlas adds no named residual.
