We derive the Hubble constant H₀ from first principles using the V23 structured vacuum framework, demonstrating that cosmological redshift results from energy dissipation in a discrete 23-channel elastic network rather than spatial expansion. The observed value H₀ ≈ 70 km/s/Mpc emerges naturally from the fundamental vacuum wavelength λ₀ ~ 1.2×10⁻¹⁰ m and the network parameter ε = 1/23. This derivation eliminates the need for Big Bang cosmology, dark energy, and spatial expansion, replacing them with geometric attenuation in a stationary eternal universe. The "Hubble tension" between CMB (H₀ ≈ 67) and supernova (H₀ ≈ 73) measurements is resolved as optical density variation in the structured vacuum. Dedicated to honest science—the kind that refuses patches.
