Q markLiquidFast-lane chain

Live is not finished

Readiness

Liquid has crossed the live-chain boundary. Readiness now means closing specific engineering and access gates, not repeating a pre-live rehearsal story.

Established now

Live liquid-1 chain

Current block production and public read routes are in service.

Two-rail settlement model

Fast local motion and slower externally provable settlement are separated.

Controlled venue execution

Keyless interchain-account execution, Go swaps, and Go multi-leg joins exist.

Infra export

Typed records and hourly full-pool snapshots are admitted by Infra through interop.

Read-only wallet surface

Balances and other bounded reads are available without making REST a broadcast owner.

Closed public access

The absence of public market access is deliberate policy, not evidence that the chain is offline.

Priority engineering work

These are the current gaps most likely to affect trustworthy operation or maintainability.

  1. Liquid-owned prices first. Wire the venue to consult Liquid’s market-provider layer first and retain Bridge evidence as fallback.
  2. Persisted owner proof. Complete real app-shell integration evidence for Liquid-owned state and repair the current Comet filesystem fixture.
  3. Source reconciliation. Resolve the remaining canonical-versus-build-tree differences and correct the stale build-tree warning.
  4. Price and refusal clarity. Decouple market price from pool quote availability and retain the closest negative candidate in no-trade explanations.
  5. Policy state. Give repeated selection policy an on-chain owner and connect the pair-market registry to a real caller.
  6. LST evidence. Measure accrual over a longer window and cost redemption versus secondary-market exit before changing acquisition rules.

Public-opening gates

No public market should open merely because the underlying chain and venue operate.

  • Explicit owner authorization and a named public route.
  • User-facing admission, quote, failure, refund, and support contracts.
  • Current price, depth, wrapper, settlement, and route evidence.
  • Abuse, outage, recovery, and degraded-state behavior that is externally understandable.
  • A public proof receipt stating exactly what opened, without making liquidity or backing promises.
