BLACKNODES / CELESTIA

Celestia tools.
Built for operators.

Fibre observations, operational scenarios and practical node resources from BlackNodes.

Tools & resources

Inspect the evidence, compare your assumptions and plan the next step.

MAINNET · ANALYTICS

Fibre Operations Lab

Explore voting-power concentration, rehearse endpoint failures and compare capacity scenarios. Save assumptions and export an operator brief.

Explore tool ↗
What you can do
  • Model unavailable voting power and compare resource scenarios.
  • Export assumptions and an operator brief with source timestamps. Scenarios do not change servers.
MAINNET · OBSERVATIONS

Fibre Signal

Inspect registered Fibre endpoints, TLS transport results, actual sampling history and consensus endpoint comparisons.

Explore tool ↗
What you can do
  • Inspect same-height hash comparisons and endpoint sync diagnostics.
  • Distinguish fresh, historical, failed and unknown transport observations. TLS is not blob availability.
GUIDES · EDUCATION

Celestia articles

Read our technical articles, upgrade guides and coverage of Celestia events.

Read articles ↗
What you can do
  • Browse BlackNodes technical writing and educational material.
  • Check publication dates and current official guidance before using an older command.
NODE RESOURCES

Mocha-5 genesis

Download an unmodified copy of the official Mocha-5 genesis and check its published SHA-256 checksum.

Download genesis ↗
What you can do
  • Download the network genesis, then compare its SHA-256 checksum.
  • Provenance and checksum links are provided below. A genesis file alone is not a node setup.
PUBLIC DATA

Observation API

Read the latest registry, endpoint and transport observations as JSON. Timestamps and measurement limits are included.

Open JSON ↗
What you can do
  • Retrieve registry, endpoint and transport observations as JSON.
  • Read collection timestamps and measurement scope before reusing results.
PUBLIC DATA

Analytics API

Inspect the source-reported validator set, voting-power calculations and change observations used by the lab.

Open JSON ↗
What you can do
  • Retrieve source-reported validator power and recorded change observations.
  • Keep the supplied observation timestamp with derived calculations.

NODE INFRASTRUCTURE

Mainnet and Mocha operations.

BlackNodes operates Mainnet and Mocha validators with Fibre services, plus a separate pruned Mainnet bridge.

The former Celestia faucet, bridge-explorer backend and legacy endpoint services are unavailable. Current resources are listed above. Transport reachability is not proof of blob availability.
