Explorer

The explorer shows you what the system is doing. Most of the time, it is working. When it is not, you will know before anyone tells you. Real-time consensus health, order throughput, peer-to-peer connectivity, DTF fund metrics, Vision batch activity, and chain performance — all in one place. The dashboard does not interpret. It reports.

Page Layout

Three layers stacked vertically. The most important information is at the top. This is not an accident.
+===================================================================+
|  1. SUMMARY BAR  --  six stat cards across the top                |
+===================================================================+
|  2. TAB ROW  --  nine tabs + time-range picker (1h 6h 24h 7d 30d)|
+===================================================================+
|  3. CHART GRID  --  2-column grid of chart cards for active tab   |
+===================================================================+
The summary bar stays visible. Clicking a tab swaps the chart grid. The time-range buttons control how much history the charts display. More history reveals more patterns. Whether those patterns predict anything is a separate question.

Summary Bar

Six cards. Six numbers. The network’s vital signs:

  • Network — the worst status across all oracle nodes. If any node is unhealthy, this turns red. The system is as healthy as its sickest component.
  • Quorum — whether >= 2/3 of oracles are online and signing. If lost, the system stops processing orders. Everything queues. Nothing settles.
  • Consensus Rounds — cumulative total since the network started. A number that should only grow.
  • Avg Consensus — mean time to reach consensus. Turns red above 2000ms. The machines are disagreeing.
  • Pending Orders — buy/sell orders waiting. Zero is ideal. Anything else means the system is behind.
  • Connected Peers — oracle nodes visible on the P2P network. Three is healthy. Two is surviving. One is not enough.

Nine tabs. Each one is a different lens on the same system. The time range selector applies to all tabs (default: 24h).

Consensus Tab

The most important tab. It tells you whether the BLS multi-signature pipeline is working. If this tab looks healthy, everything else is secondary. If it does not, nothing else matters.

How to Read Consensus Status

Quorum Status tracks whether enough oracles are online to sign. BLS consensus requires at least 2/3 of registered oracles. The step chart shows Met (1) vs Not Met (0) over time. Binary. No ambiguity.
  Quorum Met    ======+          +====+         +==========
                      |          |    |         |
  Quorum Lost         +==========+    +=========+

                      ^          ^
                      |          |
               Oracle went    Oracle came
                offline        back online
When quorum is lost, no orders can be processed. Everything queues. Nothing settles. Check the P2P tab to identify which peer dropped. The system does not guess who is right. It waits until enough nodes agree.
Network Health shows the worst status across all nodes:
  • Healthy (1) — all oracle nodes are responding normally
  • Degraded (2) — at least one node is slow or partially unresponsive
  • Unhealthy (3) — at least one node is fully unresponsive
Consensus Rounds/min shows the rate of new consensus rounds. Computed as a delta between snapshots. A healthy network runs rounds continuously. A flat line at zero means the engine has stalled. Silence in a distributed system is never good news. Consensus Success Rate is the ratio of successful rounds to total rounds per interval. Sustained dips below 100% mean instability. The system is trying and failing. Avg Consensus Duration is the mean time for a round to complete. Normal is below 500ms. Above 2000ms means something is struggling. The machines are patient. The users are not. Signatures Collected shows BLS signatures gathered at each snapshot. A direct measure of signing activity. Failed Rounds shows failed consensus rounds per interval. Non-zero values mean rounds timed out or could not reach agreement. Occasional spikes during deployments are normal. Sustained failures require intervention.

Orders Tab

The Orders tab tracks buy/sell order flow. Every order enters the system as a request and leaves as a settlement. The time between the two is visible here.
+-------------------------------+-------------------------------+
|      PENDING ORDERS           |     ORDERS PROCESSED/MIN      |
|                               |                               |

+-------------------------------+-------------------------------+

What to Look For

Three symptoms. Each tells a different story.
  • Pending Orders > 0 for extended periods — orders are queuing faster than the system processes them. Check the Consensus tab. If rounds are failing, that is your answer.
  • Orders Processed/min dropping to zero while pending orders exist — a stall. The consensus engine or settlement bridge is blocked. Something is wrong.
  • Avg Cycle Duration rising — each oracle processing loop takes longer. All order types are affected. The system is laboring.
  Normal flow:
  +---------+     +----------+     +---------+     +--------+
  |  User   | --> | Pending  | --> | Consens. | --> | Settle |
  |  Order  |     |  Queue   |     |  Round   |     | On-chain|
  +---------+     +----------+     +---------+     +--------+
       |               |               |               |
       |               v               v               v
       |          pending_order    orders_proc.    consensus
       |            _count         _last_60s     _rounds_total
       |
       +-- If this number grows while others flatline = stall

Price Feeds Tab

One chart: Consensus Duration Trend. A proxy for how long it takes oracles to agree on prices. Agreement on price is not agreement on value. But it is sufficient for the protocol.
+-------------------------------+
|  CONSENSUS DURATION TREND     |
|                               |
|       Current: 340ms          |
|       ____/--\___/--\_        |
|       line chart (ms)         |
+-------------------------------+
Each oracle aggregates prices independently from CoinGecko, Binance, and other sources. The consensus round compares these feeds (0.1% tolerance). If prices take longer to converge, consensus duration rises.
A spike in price feed consensus time usually means volatile markets. The oracles are seeing different prices from different sources. They negotiate until they agree. In calm markets, agreement is trivial. In chaos, it takes effort.

P2P Network Tab

The P2P tab monitors the gossip layer between oracle nodes. The oracles must talk to each other constantly. This tab shows whether they are.
+-------------------------------+-------------------------------+
|      CONNECTED PEERS          |   MESSAGES SENT / RECEIVED    |
|                               |                               |

+-------------------------------+-------------------------------+
|      PEER HEALTH              |                               |
|                               |                               |
|  [===== Healthy =====]        |                               |
|  [== Unhealthy ==]            |                               |
|       stacked area chart      |                               |
+-------------------------------+-------------------------------+

Peer Metrics

Connected Peers is the total number of oracle nodes visible on the network. Each oracle maintains direct connections to all others. A drop means a node went offline or lost connectivity. In a three-node network, every node matters.
  Normal:   Oracle-1 <---> Oracle-2 <---> Oracle-3
            3 peers        3 peers        3 peers

  Degraded: Oracle-1 <---> Oracle-2       Oracle-3 (offline)
            2 peers        2 peers        0 peers
Messages Sent / Received shows gossip volume per interval. Sent and received should track each other. A divergence means messages are being dropped. Information lost in transit. Peer Health splits peers into healthy and unhealthy. Unhealthy peers respond, but with errors or latency. The stacked area chart reveals degradation before failure. The warning comes before the collapse, which is the entire point of monitoring.

Cycles Tab

The oracle processing loop. Each cycle reads orders, fetches prices, runs consensus, and submits transactions. This tab measures how long each iteration takes.
+-------------------------------+-------------------------------+
|      CYCLE DURATION           |     SLOW CYCLE ALERTS         |
|                               |                               |
|       ____/--\___/--          |           0                   |
|       line chart (ms)         |     out of 287 snapshots      |
|                               |       (big number card)       |
+-------------------------------+-------------------------------+
|      ORDERS PER CYCLE         |                               |
|                               |                               |
|       .  . . .                |                               |
|  .... .  . . . ....           |                               |
|       line chart              |                               |
+-------------------------------+-------------------------------+
Each oracle runs a continuous loop:
  1. Reads pending orders
  2. Fetches prices
  3. Runs consensus
  4. Submits signed transactions
Cycle Duration — how long each iteration takes. Normal is below 1000ms. Above 2000ms is “slow”. The word “slow” is clinical. The impact is not. Slow Cycle Alerts — how many snapshots had average cycle duration above 2000ms. Zero is ideal. A high number relative to total snapshots means the network is overloaded. The system is doing its best. Its best is insufficient. Orders Per Cycle — orders processed per cycle (orders_processed_last_60s / 12, since cycles run roughly every 5 seconds). A rising trend means increasing load. Load has no ceiling. Capacity does.

DTF & NAV Tab

Fund metrics. The numbers that matter to anyone with money in the system.

+-------------------------------+-------------------------------+

Pending Order Volume

Queue depth of DTF buy/sell orders over time. A pipeline activity proxy. Sustained high values mean orders are not settling fast enough. Demand exceeds throughput.

Batch Volume

Active vs paused batches. Total player count. The ratio tells you how alive the prediction market is.

Batch Pool Stats

Total TVL across all Vision pools. Average players per batch. A horizontal bar chart ranks the top 5 data sources by TVL. The money concentrates where the conviction is.

Batches by Source

How many batches each data source runs. Sources with more batches have more active markets. Popularity is not equally distributed. It never is.

Network Activity

Orders processed per 60 seconds. A proxy for Vision settlement throughput. Flat at zero means nothing is settling. The engine is idle.

System Health Tab

The summary view. If you only check one tab, make it this one. The charts here duplicate data from the Consensus tab but are arranged for a single glance.

Interpreting the Health Trifecta

  All three green = system fully operational
  +----------------+---------------+-------------------+
  | Network Status | Quorum Status | Success Rate      |
  +================+===============+===================+
  | Healthy        | Met           | 95-100%           |  <-- Normal
  | Degraded       | Met           | 80-95%            |  <-- Watch
  | Unhealthy      | Met           | < 80%             |  <-- Investigate
  | Any            | Lost          | (irrelevant)      |  <-- URGENT
  +----------------+---------------+-------------------+
Quorum Lost is the highest-severity state. No transactions process. DTF buys/sells and Vision settlements halt. The network is running. It is just running in place.

Chain & Gas Tab

On-chain operational metrics. The cost of existence on the blockchain.

+-------------------------------+-------------------------------+

Consensus Throughput

Consensus rounds completed per snapshot interval. The raw engine speed. Higher is better. Lower is concerning. Zero is an emergency.

Message Volume

P2P messages sent and received per interval. Sent is solid, received is dashed. They should track. A gap between them is information that never arrived.

Order Pipeline

Overlays two series on the same chart:
  • Processed / 60s (solid area) — orders that completed consensus
  • Pending (dashed area) — orders waiting in queue
  Healthy pipeline:
  Processed  ============================   (high, steady)
  Pending    ====                           (low, near zero)

  Backlogged pipeline:
  Processed  ========                       (flat or declining)
  Pending    ==========================     (growing)
                                        ^
                                        |
                              Something is blocking settlement

Cycle Performance

Average cycle duration in milliseconds. The same metric as the Cycles tab, shown here for correlation. Rising cycle times plus rising pending orders equals a system under load. The equation is simple. The fix is not.

Data Model

All data flows through a single pipeline. The architecture is deliberately simple. Complexity in the data pipeline would mean complexity in the diagnosis.

                            single AggregatedSnapshot per poll

Snapshot Fields

Each aggregated snapshot contains exactly these fields:
FieldTypeDescription
poll_batch_tsstringTimestamp of this snapshot
quorum_metbooleanWhether 2/3+ oracles are online
worst_statusstringhealthy, degraded, or unhealthy
consensus_rounds_totalnumberCumulative consensus rounds (counter)
consensus_success_totalnumberCumulative successful rounds (counter)
consensus_failed_totalnumberCumulative failed rounds (counter)
signatures_collectednumberBLS signatures gathered
avg_consensus_time_msnumberMean consensus round duration
avg_cycle_duration_msnumberMean oracle cycle duration
orders_processed_last_60snumberOrders settled in last 60 seconds
pending_order_countnumberOrders waiting in queue
total_peersnumberConnected P2P nodes
p2p_messages_receivednumberCumulative messages received (counter)
p2p_messages_sentnumberCumulative messages sent (counter)
total_peers_healthynumberPeers in healthy state
total_peers_unhealthynumberPeers in unhealthy state
Counter fields (*_total, p2p_messages_*) are cumulative. The dashboard computes deltas between consecutive snapshots to show rates. Negative deltas (from oracle restarts) are clamped to zero. The system forgets its previous incarnation.

Polling & Refresh

  • The dashboard polls every 60 seconds automatically
  • Click Refresh to force an immediate poll
  • Changing the time range triggers a fresh data load
  • Each API call has a 15-second timeout and a 5 MB response size limit. The constraints exist because data without limits becomes noise.

What Traders Should Know

You do not need to watch the Explorer. But when your order is taking longer than expected, the Explorer will tell you why. The system is transparent. Transparency does not make the wait shorter. It makes it comprehensible.
SituationImpact on You
Quorum lostBuy/sell orders will not process until quorum is restored. Your order sits in the queue.
High pending ordersYour order may take longer than usual to settle. Nothing is lost — just delayed.
Consensus duration spikePrices may update slightly slower. Not a problem unless sustained above 5 seconds.
Peer count dropsReduced redundancy. If it drops to quorum threshold, one more failure means orders halt.
Failed rounds increasingSome consensus attempts are failing. Orders still process on successful rounds, just slower.
Vision batch pausedThat specific prediction market is not accepting new entries. Other markets are unaffected.
