CypherCon 2026 Extreme Badge
Official premium electronic and upgraded-PCB ticket-tier artifact
CypherCon 9's official 2026 registration page separately advertised an Extreme Badge ticket tier with unique collectible electronic-badge wording and an exclusive upgraded-PCB feature. The official FAQ calls the limited VIP form an Extreme/Ultimate badge, but the recovered sources do not say whether it was a distinct physical board, an upgrade of the Digital / Circuit Badge, multiple artifacts, or a final fulfilled configuration.

Why It Mattered
The premium listing is sufficient to preserve a distinct organizer-defined 2026 badge offer, but it should not be collapsed into the general Digital / Circuit tier or embellished into a known board. Keeping it separate makes the source's ticket distinction visible while retaining the physical-relationship and post-event delivery gaps.
Hardware
The registration listing says the Extreme tier includes a unique collectible electronic badge and an exclusive upgraded PCB. It does not identify any controller, display, LEDs, radio, sensors, power system, enclosure, dimensions, component set, schematic, PCB files, firmware, production revision, maker, manufacturer, artwork, quantity, or a definition of what is upgraded. The listing's terms therefore do not prove one device, a distinct board, or parity with the general Digital / Circuit Badge.
Software & Apps
No source recovered for the Extreme tier publishes firmware, source code, a binary, application, challenge, software license, build, update, protocol, or configuration record. The electronic and upgraded-PCB descriptions do not establish a programmable surface, feature set, privacy behavior, accessibility support, or delivered software image.
Lore
The registration page marked the Extreme Badge as sold out in the recovered listing and describes it as a premium ticket form alongside conference, afterparty, and other experience language. The public organizer-account timeline mirror supports that CypherCon 9 opened and later wrapped, but neither it nor the official registration/FAQ publishes a final Extreme Badge inventory, purchaser roster, pickup, shipment, replacement, support, physical distinction, or completed recipient handoff.

Extreme Badge electronic and upgraded-PCB statement
CypherCon's registration listing describes the Extreme Badge as a premium offering with a unique collectible electronic badge and an exclusive upgraded PCB. The source does not say whether those terms describe the same object, a variant of the Digital / Circuit Badge, multiple objects, a final design, or a completed delivery.

Limited Extreme/Ultimate category
The CypherCon FAQ calls the limited VIP form an Extreme/Ultimate badge, while the official category listing separately shows the 2026 Extreme Badge as sold out. These pages do not establish final quantity, purchaser count, price, priority benefit delivery, badge allocation, pickup, shipment, replacement, or final stock reconciliation.

Issues & Camp Impact
availability, fulfillment, and benefit boundary
note
The recovered official listing labels the Extreme Badge sold out and its premium copy lists event experience benefits, but the sources do not establish quantity, purchaser count, payment, allocation, final price, eligibility, collection, shipment, replacement, receipt, benefit delivery, badge inventory, or whether every Extreme purchaser received an electronic artifact. The event's completion does not resolve any of those outcomes.
The catalogue records the organizer's availability and premium-tier wording, not a fulfilled VIP benefit, a guaranteed badge allocation, a final stock ledger, or an admission/access entitlement beyond the source's high-level ticket description.

missing rights-cleared image
note
No CypherCon 2026 Extreme Badge image is published because the current public source trail has not been paired with a reusable original badge or artifact photo or official upstream raster render with source URL, license or permission basis, attribution, and processing notes.
The United States record remains source-backed and image-free rather than copying source-page media, documentation screenshots, event photos, social media, placeholders, or generated approximations.

premium-tier technical and variant boundary
note
The organizer describes a unique collectible electronic badge and an exclusive upgraded PCB, but does not define what is electronic, what is upgraded, whether the terms refer to one artifact or several, or whether the item differs from the Digital / Circuit Badge. No final board, component set, revision, schematic, BOM, artwork, firmware, protocol, source, license, manufacturing record, or named badge team was recovered.
The premium offering remains a distinct ticket-form record without being reconstructed as a particular electronic device, established board variant, released program, or source-backed technical upgrade.
