Issue dossier
No Cobalt DC34 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.
A linkable camp-impact record with badge context, severity, evidence confidence, and source notes.

maker-published badge index
The trueControl BASIC index lists Cobalt DC34 under DEF CON 34 at LVCC and labels it a corporate commission. It establishes the publisher's own event association and classification, not DEF CON issuance, a commissioning party, funding, allocation, attendee eligibility, or a completed handoff.

maker-published firmware and schematic archive
Public trueControl repository for Cobalt DC34. Its description calls it a RP2040-driven badge, and its committed source tree includes firmware and a schematic directory. Public availability is evidence of an archive, not a reusable-image or broad source-license grant.
