Network status

Proof of life for the three experimental chains — none of them the 2009 Bitcoin network, none of them money — anchor uptime and tip height — measured over each chain's own peer‑to‑peer protocol. Not money.

Reading status.json — the three chain cards appear here once the feed has been fetched.

How this is measured. A scheduled probe connects to each anchor over the real node wire (magic + checksum framing), does the version handshake, and walks getblocks to the tip — the same protocol any node speaks. No authority is involved; what lasts is the reproducible genesis, not this page. A chain reads offline only if no anchor answered the probe. Not money.
