Summary

Debug and Fearless Dev builds (-DF_DEV in fearless.debug.xcconfig and fearless.dev.xcconfig) read remote-config/development/chains/v13/chains_dev.json from master. That list had Avail DA Mainnet (b91746b45e0346cc2f815a520b9c6cb4d5c0902af848db0a80f85932d2e8276a) twice. ChainSyncService.sanitizingRemoteChains refuses a whole list that repeats a chainId (duplicateRemoteChainIdentifier), so every sync attempt failed and a fresh install kept only the app-owned Bitcoin, Solana and Taira chains: no Polkaswap, no SORA, no Substrate networks. This showed up in a Debug simulator run on 2026-11-07, where the app's stdout shows the error and the retries.

Release builds read remote-config/production/chains/v13/chains.json, which has one Avail entry. This PR doesn't change it.

Root cause

The duplicate arrived with the import in #1305. Upstream soramitsu/shared-features-utils@f2ed4ccf chains/v13/chains_dev.json already listed Avail twice; its SHA-256 5726b01a… is the manifest's upstreamSha256. scripts/verify-remote-config.py never compared chainIds, so the audit passed this list.

Changes

• remote-config/development/chains/v13/chains_dev.json: delete the first Avail DA Mainnet copy (74 lines, deletions only). The two copies were byte-identical and equal to the production entry. The copy I kept is where production has it, after Viction and next to Avail Turing Testnet. The list goes from 78 to 77 chains, every chainId is unique, and no other entry changes (the new list equals the old one without index 59).
• config/remote-config-imports.json: re-pin ownedSha256 to 26b9dc290ad22588888dee433f6d6f7dfbe2b3541d1cf738fadef37ceca14310 and log the correction.
• scripts/verify-remote-config.py: the audit now fails when a versioned chain list (remote-config/*/chains/v*/chains*.json) repeats a chainId. Two new tests are in scripts/test-remote-config.py.
• docs/ChainRegistryVersions.md: refresh the owned-registry table. Its chain-list rows still had values from before the 2026-10-29 network removal. The production row now shows master's current value; this PR doesn't change that file.

ownedReferences drops from 1997 to 1995 because the removed copy carried two icon URLs.

Debug simulator check

I ran one Debug build of this commit on a fresh iPhone 17 simulator (iOS 26.5). A local patch, not committed, let the launch environment choose which ref of remote-config/ the app downloads:

Data	App log on a fresh install
master (dce8790cd)	Sync failed with error: duplicateRemoteChainIdentifier("b91746b4…") five times, retried after 0.8 s, 2.2 s, 6.0 s and 16.4 s. Never synced.
This branch	One Sync completed listing all 77 chains (SORA Mainnet, Polkadot, Kusama and the other Substrate networks, Avail DA Mainnet once). No failures or retries.

I didn't open Network management, because it needs a wallet. The sync log names every chain the app stored.

Debug and Dev builds read this file from master at runtime, so the fix reaches them when this merges. No new build is needed.

Not in this PR (found while checking)

• The bundled fallback fearless/Modules/LiquidityPools/LiquidityPoolDetails/Resources/chains.json repeats Manta Pacific Mainnet, Enjin Relaychain and Liberland, and its two Liberland copies differ. ChainSyncService reads that file only when the compile-time fetchLocalData flag is true. The flag is false today; if it were flipped, the same sanitizer would refuse the list.
• remote-config/production/chains/all_chains_types.json lists chainId 6d8d9f14… twice with different contents. That chain is in neither v13 list.
• No script checks the manifest's ownedSha256 pins. For this PR I checked all 949 by hand.
• Open PRs Harden cross-chain sends and retire undeliverable XCM routes #1308 and Drop dead Blast nodes and follow Dwellir's host move in v13 chains #1309 edit the same files. Their content reached master through iOS 4.2.0 (2026.11.5): preserve wallet accounts and complete release fixes #1312, so they will conflict with this PR.

Risk and rollback

This only changes app data, and Release builds are unaffected. To roll back, revert this commit; that restores the duplicate and the old pin.
