## NEW: BitNet b1.58 Analysis (BT-77)

Microsoft's 1.58-bit LLM (ternary weights {-1,0,1}) also follows n=6:

| Parameter | Value | n=6 Expression |
|-----------|-------|---------------|
| Ternary values | 3 | n/φ = 6/2 |
| Weight bits | 1.58 = log₂(3) | log₂(n/φ) |
| Activation bits | 8 | σ-τ |
| d_model | 2560 | 2^(σ-τ)·(σ-φ) |
| n_layers | 30 | sopfr·n |
| n_heads | 20 | (σ-φ)·φ |
| n_kv_heads | 5 | sopfr |
| d_ffn | 6912 = 2⁸·3³ | 2^(σ-τ)·(n/φ)^(n/φ) |

**25/26 EXACT** — architecture completely different from LLaMA, yet all n=6.
