Month 1 · Chapter 1
Accumulated Pulse + what we still cannot measure
The first month is the weekly series stacked with a roadmap of what we still cannot measure. Nakamoto remix, stateless benches, and PIPE/USDC tables wait for real harnesses.
Chapter 1 is accumulated weekly Pulse plus roadmap. Unstaked probes, NTP exclusions, method pulse-fec-v1. Not the entire Solana network. No health score.
Roadmap
- testing Dual-path Pulse probes in Frankfurt and Los Angeles metros — Separate VMs from serving PoPs; CRDS full ContactInfo required
- deployed Hourly FEC parquet warehouse (13-month retention) — No payloads; not SQLite; not the 24h shred archive
- testing Tuesday compiler (issue JSON + print-CSS) — Race omitted until 7 dual-path days
- scheduled Off-fleet Ashburn probe — So the map is not only where we sell
- testing Private --solanacdn-race diagnostic — Inside the shred-feed bundle, not a new SKU
- proposed Stake/client overlay (Chapter 2) — Skip/repair by gossip-visible cohorts only; no named validator shame
- research Nakamoto coefficient remix — Deferred
- research Stateless / Alpenglow rotor benches — Deferred until a harness exists
- testing PIPE / USDC economics tables — PIPE burn-to-credit for website CDN only; shred SKU remains 1,500 USDC
- research Composite network health score — Not before 8–12 weekly issues
What we still cannot measure
- Stake-weighted Turbine from an unstaked leaf (we disclose that).
- Client diversity overlays (Chapter 2, gossip-visible cohorts only).
- Stateless / Alpenglow rotor benches (no harness yet).
- PIPE/USDC economics tables (payments path not in this product).
- A composite health score (deferred until 8–12 weekly issues).
