# Legacy Path Cleanup Summary

## ✅ Legacy Path Issues Fixed

### 1. Genesis File Path Resolution
**Before (Legacy):**
```python
genesis_paths = [
    Path(f"/opt/aitbc/apps/blockchain-node/data/{self._config.chain_id}/genesis.json"),  # Hardcoded
    Path(f"./data/{self._config.chain_id}/genesis.json"),  # Relative path
    Path(f"/var/lib/aitbc/data/{self._config.chain_id}/genesis.json"),  # Mixed
]
```

**After (Clean):**
```python
genesis_paths = [
    Path(f"/var/lib/aitbc/data/{self._config.chain_id}/genesis.json"),  # Standard location only
]
```

### 2. File System Cleanup
- ✅ Removed duplicate genesis file: `/opt/aitbc/apps/blockchain-node/data/ait-mainnet/genesis.json`
- ✅ Single source of truth: `/var/lib/aitbc/data/ait-mainnet/genesis.json`
- ✅ Uses standardized directory structure from configuration

### 3. Debug Logging Cleanup
- ✅ Removed temporary debug logging added during troubleshooting
- ✅ Clean, production-ready logging restored

## 🎯 Benefits Achieved

- **🗂️ Consistent Paths**: Uses standardized `/var/lib/aitbc/data/` structure
- **🔧 Maintainable**: Single location for genesis file
- **📱 Configuration-Driven**: Follows established directory standards
- **🚀 Production Ready**: Clean code without legacy workarounds
- **🛡️ Reliable**: No more path resolution ambiguity

## 📁 Current Directory Structure

│   └── ait-mainnet/
│       ├── chain.db          # Blockchain database
│       └── genesis.json       # ✅ Single genesis file
├── keystore/

└── logs/                     # Service logs
```
