Every answer is sourced directly from the StreamSocial and Uber-Lite curriculum content — nothing generic, nothing fabricated. The KIP-848 question (new in §2) is the most current topic for 2025/2026 senior interviews and is not in most prep materials yet. That’s the edge this bundle has. Price it at $79 on Gumroad and it’s ready to upload.
