Robinhood Chain node sync progress

NLYRA runs its own full node of Robinhood Chain — the data behind The Desk, the scanner and the explorer. On October 7 Node 2, built on self-pruning PathDB storage, took over from Node 1, which was retired. This page shows it live.

What is happening here

The node started from a pruned snapshot and has to re-execute every block the chain produced since, while the chain keeps producing ~10 new blocks every second. "Closing the gap" is how much faster we run than the chain — that number, not the raw speed, decides the arrival time.

Once it reaches the tip it only needs to keep pace, which is far lighter. Then it becomes the primary data source for The Desk and, later, a public RPC.

Why we switched. Node 1 kept every old copy of the chain's state, so its disk grew by about 15 GB a day. Node 2 started from a fresh snapshot on PathDB, which deletes old state on its own and grows only with history. It reached the tip and took over on October 7; Node 1 was retired.
