Dual endomorphism conjecture for Anderson self-dual ring spectra

From papers

Let RR be an E1\mathbf{E}_1-ring spectrum and write A=π0RA=\pi_0 R. Suppose that there is a class DπdRD\in \pi_{-d}R witnessing the Anderson self-duality of RR. Let F ⁣:RRF\colon R\to R be an endomorphism of algebra objects in hSp\mathrm{h}\mathrm{Sp} such that

F(D)=λDF(D)=\lambda D

for some λA\lambda\in A. Dual endomorphism conjecture. The composites FFˇF\circ \widecheck{F} and FˇF\widecheck{F}\circ F should be equivalent to multiplication by λ\lambda on πR\pi_\ast R.

This conjecture describes how an endomorphism of an Anderson self-dual ring spectrum interacts with its dual endomorphism. The source presents it as a conjecture, and no resolution is given in the supplied text.
