BSides Peoria 2025 HackTheBadge Challenge Badge repository existed before the event; code published after it

source chronology

The repository's visible history has an event-period README before the October 25 conference, while the main Arduino source appears in a November 21 post-event commit. The chronology preserves public evidence without equating the later checkout with a dated event binary or documented final artifact.
