feat: Phase 7 production readiness improvements

- Add SYNOR_BOOTSTRAP_PEERS env var for runtime seed node configuration
- Implement secrets provider abstraction for faucet wallet key security
  (supports file-based secrets in /run/secrets for production)
- Create WASM crypto crate foundation for web wallet (Ed25519, BIP-39)
- Add DEPLOYMENT.md guide for testnet deployment
- Add SECURITY_AUDIT_SCOPE.md for external security audit preparation
- Document seed node deployment process in synor-network

Security improvements:
- Faucet now auto-detects /run/secrets for secure key storage
- CORS already defaults to specific origins (https://faucet.synor.cc)
- Bootstrap peers now configurable at runtime without recompilation

-WASM bindings for Synor post-quantum cryptographic operations.
+WASM-compatible cryptography library for the Synor web wallet.
 
-## Status: Work in Progress
+## Current Features
 
-This crate is intended to provide WebAssembly bindings for ML-DSA-65 (Dilithium3)
+- **Ed25519 Signatures**: Full support via `ed25519-dalek` (pure Rust)
-quantum-resistant signatures. However, due to the following considerations, the
+- **BIP-39 Mnemonics**: 12-24 word phrases for key generation
-current Synor web wallet uses a **hybrid server-side approach** instead:
+- **Bech32m Addresses**: Synor address encoding/decoding
+- **BLAKE3/SHA3 Hashing**: Cryptographic hash functions
+- **HKDF Key Derivation**: Secure key derivation
 
-### Why Server-Side Dilithium?
+## Building
-
-1. **Bundle Size**: The ML-DSA WASM module adds ~2MB to the web bundle, significantly
-   impacting initial load times and mobile performance.
-
-2. **Library Stability**: The `ml-dsa` crate is still in release candidate status
-   (0.1.0-rc.2) with API changes between versions. Production use requires stable APIs.
-
-3. **C-based Alternatives**: The `pqcrypto-dilithium` crate (which wraps PQClean's C
-   implementation) doesn't compile to WASM without significant toolchain setup.
-
-4. **Performance**: Server-side signing is generally faster than WASM execution,
-   especially on mobile devices.
-
-### Current Architecture
-
-The Synor web wallet uses a hybrid approach:

-### Future Plans
-
-Once the `ml-dsa` crate reaches stable release (1.0), this crate will be updated
-to provide full client-side ML-DSA-65 signing. This will enable:
-
-- Fully non-custodial wallet operation
-- Offline transaction signing
-- Hardware wallet integration
-
-### Building (Development)

-# Native tests
+# Build for web (requires wasm-pack)
-cd crates/synor-crypto-wasm
+wasm-pack build --target web --out-dir pkg
-cargo test
 
-# WASM build (requires wasm-pack)
+# Build for Node.js
-# Currently blocked on ml-dsa stability
+wasm-pack build --target nodejs --out-dir pkg-node
-wasm-pack build --target web
 ```

-## Security Considerations
+## Dilithium3 Post-Quantum Support
 
-- ML-DSA-65 provides NIST Security Level 3 (~AES-192 equivalent)
+### Current Status: Pending
-- Hybrid signatures require BOTH Ed25519 AND Dilithium to verify
-- This defense-in-depth means an attacker must break both algorithms
-- Server-side signing should only be used with proper authentication
 
-## License
+The native `synor-crypto` crate uses `pqcrypto-dilithium` which relies on C
+bindings and does not compile to WASM. Options for WASM-compatible Dilithium3:
 
-MIT
+1. **pqc-crystals-dilithium** - Pure Rust, may work with WASM
+2. **ML-DSA reference** - FIPS 204 standard (formerly Dilithium)
+3. **Emscripten build** - Compile C implementation to WASM
+
+### Roadmap
+
+1. [x] Ed25519 basic support
+2. [x] BIP-39 mnemonic generation
+3. [x] Address encoding
+4. [ ] Dilithium3 signatures (requires WASM-compatible library)
+5. [ ] Hybrid Ed25519 + Dilithium verification
+6. [ ] Kyber key encapsulation (post-quantum key exchange)
+
+### Workaround
+
+Until native Dilithium3 WASM is available, the web wallet can:
+
+1. Use Ed25519-only addresses for now
+2. Submit hybrid-signed transactions to a backend that adds Dilithium signatures
+3. Or use a WASM module compiled via Emscripten
+
+## Security Notes
+
+- Keys are zeroized on drop
+- Uses `getrandom` with `js` feature for secure randomness in browsers
+- No side-channel resistance in signature timing (use constant-time ops for production)
+
+## Testing
+
+```bash
+# Run Rust tests
+cargo test
+
+# Run WASM tests in browser
+wasm-pack test --headless --chrome

+# Synor Testnet Deployment Guide
+
+This guide covers deploying the Synor blockchain testnet, including seed nodes, validators, and supporting infrastructure.
+
+---
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+- Rust 1.75+ with `wasm32-unknown-unknown` target
+- Docker (optional, for containerized deployment)
+- 3+ servers with static IPs or DNS hostnames
+- Ports: 17511 (P2P), 17110 (RPC), 17111 (WebSocket)
+
+---
+
+## 1. Build from Source
+
+```bash
+# Clone and build
+git clone https://github.com/g1-technologies/synor.git
+cd synor
+
+# Build release binaries
+cargo build --release -p synord -p synor-cli
+
+# Binaries will be in target/release/
+```
+
+---
+
+## 2. Deploy Seed Nodes
+
+Seed nodes are the first nodes deployed. They provide initial peer discovery for the network.
+
+### 2.1 Deploy First Seed Node
+
+```bash
+# On testnet-seed1.synor.cc
+./synord --network testnet \
+    --data-dir /var/lib/synor \
+    --rpc-host 0.0.0.0 \
+    --rpc-port 17110 \
+    --ws-port 17111 \
+    --p2p-port 17511
+```
+
+**Get the peer ID from startup logs:**
+```
+INFO synor_network::service: Local peer ID: 12D3KooWXxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
+```
+
+Record this peer ID - you'll need it for other nodes.
+
+### 2.2 Deploy Additional Seed Nodes
+
+For the second and third seed nodes, configure them to bootstrap from the first:
+
+```bash
+# On testnet-seed2.synor.cc
+export SYNOR_BOOTSTRAP_PEERS="/dns4/testnet-seed1.synor.cc/tcp/17511/p2p/12D3KooWXxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"
+
+./synord --network testnet \
+    --data-dir /var/lib/synor \
+    --rpc-host 0.0.0.0 \
+    --rpc-port 17110
+```
+
+After all seed nodes are running, record all peer IDs:
+
+| Seed Node | Hostname | Peer ID |
+|-----------|----------|---------|
+| Seed 1 (US-East) | testnet-seed1.synor.cc | 12D3KooW... |
+| Seed 2 (EU-Frankfurt) | testnet-seed2.synor.cc | 12D3KooW... |
+| Seed 3 (Asia-Singapore) | testnet-seed3.synor.cc | 12D3KooW... |
+
+### 2.3 Configure Bootstrap Peers
+
+Once all seed nodes are running, update the `SYNOR_BOOTSTRAP_PEERS` environment variable on each node:
+
+```bash
+export SYNOR_BOOTSTRAP_PEERS="\
+/dns4/testnet-seed1.synor.cc/tcp/17511/p2p/12D3KooW...,\
+/dns4/testnet-seed2.synor.cc/tcp/17511/p2p/12D3KooW...,\
+/dns4/testnet-seed3.synor.cc/tcp/17511/p2p/12D3KooW..."
+```
+
+Or create a config file at `~/.synor/config.toml`:
+
+```toml
+[p2p]
+seeds = [
+    "/dns4/testnet-seed1.synor.cc/tcp/17511/p2p/12D3KooW...",
+    "/dns4/testnet-seed2.synor.cc/tcp/17511/p2p/12D3KooW...",
+    "/dns4/testnet-seed3.synor.cc/tcp/17511/p2p/12D3KooW...",
+]
+```
+
+---
+
+## 3. Deploy Faucet
+
+The faucet provides testnet tokens to developers.
+
+### 3.1 Generate Faucet Wallet
+
+```bash
+# Generate a new wallet for the faucet
+synor-cli wallet create --name faucet
+
+# Note the address for genesis allocation
+synor-cli wallet list
+```
+
+### 3.2 Configure Faucet
+
+**IMPORTANT: Store the faucet private key securely!**
+
+For production, use a secrets manager (AWS Secrets Manager, HashiCorp Vault, etc.):
+
+```bash
+# Development only - NOT for production
+export FAUCET_WALLET_KEY="your-private-key-here"
+export FAUCET_RPC_URL="http://testnet-seed1.synor.cc:17110"
+export FAUCET_DRIP_AMOUNT="1000000000"  # 10 SYNOR (8 decimals)
+export FAUCET_COOLDOWN="3600"           # 1 hour between requests
+
+# Run faucet
+./faucet --port 8080
+```
+
+### 3.3 Secure the Faucet Key (Production)
+
+Instead of environment variables, integrate with a secrets manager:
+
+```rust
+// Example: AWS Secrets Manager integration
+// See apps/faucet/src/secrets.rs for implementation
+```
+
+---
+
+## 4. Deploy Block Explorer
+
+The explorer provides blockchain visibility.
+
+```bash
+# Configure explorer
+export EXPLORER_RPC_URL="http://testnet-seed1.synor.cc:17110"
+export EXPLORER_WS_URL="ws://testnet-seed1.synor.cc:17111"
+
+# Run explorer backend
+./explorer --port 3000
+
+# For production, restrict CORS:
+export EXPLORER_CORS_ORIGINS="https://explorer.synor.cc,https://testnet.synor.cc"
+```
+
+---
+
+## 5. Security Checklist
+
+### Network Security
+- [ ] Firewall configured (allow 17511, 17110, 17111)
+- [ ] DDoS protection enabled
+- [ ] Rate limiting configured on RPC endpoints
+
+### Node Security
+- [ ] Node runs as non-root user
+- [ ] Data directory has restricted permissions
+- [ ] Log rotation configured
+
+### Key Management

+- [ ] Validator keys stored securely
+- [ ] Key backup procedures documented
+
+### CORS Configuration
+- [ ] Explorer CORS restricted to specific origins
+- [ ] Faucet CORS restricted to specific origins
+- [ ] RPC CORS configured appropriately
+
+---
+
+## 6. Monitoring
+
+### Prometheus Metrics
+
+Enable metrics on synord:
+
+```bash
+./synord --network testnet --metrics --metrics-port 9090
+```
+
+Scrape endpoint: `http://localhost:9090/metrics`
+
+### Key Metrics to Monitor
+
+- `synor_peer_count` - Number of connected peers
+- `synor_block_height` - Current block height
+- `synor_sync_progress` - Sync progress percentage
+- `synor_mempool_size` - Pending transactions
+- `synor_blocks_per_second` - Block production rate
+
+---
+
+## 7. Troubleshooting
+
+### Node won't connect to peers
+
+1. Check firewall rules (port 17511)
+2. Verify bootstrap peers are reachable
+3. Check peer ID format in SYNOR_BOOTSTRAP_PEERS
+
+```bash
+# Test connectivity
+nc -zv testnet-seed1.synor.cc 17511
+```
+
+### Node stuck syncing
+
+1. Check disk space
+2. Verify network bandwidth
+3. Increase sync batch size if needed
+
+### High memory usage
+
+1. Adjust cache size in config
+2. Enable pruning for non-archive nodes
+
+---
+
+## 8. Updating Nodes
+
+### Rolling Updates
+
+1. Stop node gracefully: `kill -SIGTERM <pid>`
+2. Wait for shutdown (check logs)
+3. Update binary
+4. Restart node
+
+### Breaking Changes
+
+For consensus changes, coordinate a hard fork:
+
+1. Announce upgrade block height
+2. Deploy new binaries to all nodes
+3. All nodes must upgrade before fork height
