FAQ
Short answers.
Is Metacenter affiliated with Stacks, Hiro or any protocol?
No. It is an independent open-source project (MIT). Forum quotes on the site are context, not endorsements.
Why are some headline figures "mirrored"?
They come from the latest distribution's events. When pox5-reader is available on mainnet, the dashboard uses its onchain figures instead.
Why does the testnet feed show mainnet numbers?
Testnet has almost no bond stake. The testnet risk-feed mirrors mainnet distributions, with every raw input stored so anyone can recompute them.
Can the reserve cover a shortfall?
Not under the current contract. See Reserve & hypothetical cover.
Who is short-paid first?
The last bond in the payout order. See Bond payout order.
How often is the data updated?
The indexer polls every ~10 minutes. Distributions happen once per 1,050 Bitcoin blocks.
