Two choices do not need a select: a segmented control shows both options at
once, the active one is obvious, and the explanation moves to a short hint
beside it. Arrow keys switch it like a radio group.
The IntersectionObserver-based spy only fired when a section entered a
narrow band 40–45% down the viewport. Short sections at the tail of a
page — Operator key and Roadmap on theseus.x/extensions, whatever came
last on the other pages — never made it into that band because the
page runs out of scroll before their top crosses 40%, so their sidebar
links stayed dim no matter how far the reader scrolled.
Rewrote the spy across every page with a sidebar (theseus.x home /
plug-ins / extensions and sirius.x home / tld / theseus / docs / admin
/ brand): it listens to window scroll, picks the last section whose
top has crossed 35% of the viewport, and — when the window is scrolled
to within 4px of the bottom — snaps to the final section regardless of
where its top is. Every link in the rail can now activate.
theseus.x/extensions also had the spy IIFE bundled with the manifest
loader in one <script> block near the middle of the page, so at run
time the parser hadn't yet reached the last three sections and only
Bundled/Community/Build were ever registered. Moved the spy to its own
<script> just before </body> so it sees every section that ships.
The s3 field asked people for a Sia bucket key. Under Content & hosting it
is now a choice: not hosted on Sia, Sirius.X hosting (free, the name's own
folder on Sia, filled by Studio or the upload API), or another folder for
the few who host elsewhere. The raw key stays editable under the advanced
option; the on-chain record is unchanged.
The name summary listed two gateways; the public relay is navigate.st,
silentmode.st is the operator host. The summary, the Open and View
buttons now all point at navigate.st, and the s3 field explains what
Studio writes there.
Every dollar figure on the site came from a hard-coded 250,000 sats per
dollar, which implies $400 per BCH; the market is near $250, so name
prices, TLD fees and sale listings were shown about 60% too cheap in
dollars. The gateway now serves /api/price: the median of Coinbase,
Kraken, Bitstamp, Binance and CoinGecko public tickers, no keys, cached
60 s, last good answer kept if every source fails. The site reads it
first, queries the same tickers itself if the gateway is unreachable,
remembers the last rate per browser, and only falls back to a constant
for the very first paint. Pages repaint when the rate arrives, and the
rate line says where it came from and how old it is.
Units: satoshi no longer appear anywhere. Sale prices, the seller's
input and the buy dialog are in BCH with the dollar figure beside
them; balances, fees and dust are in bits (1 bit = 100 satoshi).
Star emoji swapped for the site's own 4-point sparkle mark — same SVG
that ships as the favicon — everywhere it appeared: the topnav brand,
the hero mark, the "you're here" pill on the family-of-.x panel, the
footer, register.html, portal.html, tld.html, market/, docs/, admin/,
brand/, storage/, theseus/, studio.html, site-footer.js. Anyone who
opens Sirius.X now sees the acid-green sparkle instead of a browser
star emoji.
Internal links normalised to no trailing slash — href="./theseus/"
became href="./theseus" (Theseus, docs, market, admin). Cleaner URLs
in the address bar and no double-slash redirect step on the mirrors.
Ariadne's resolver copy and the Android indexer still admitted every
REG under a cosign or hidden TLD, so they disagreed with the gateway
and Theseus about which names exist. Ariadne now carries the current
Argus resolver-web.js verbatim (the copy had drifted: no TLD beacon, no
owner tracking, old electrum list); its daemon only imports buildIndex
and normalizeName, both unchanged. Bns.java gains the same rule in
Java: walk the TLD beacon, keep each TLD's TUPD policy timeline, and
drop a REG whose TLD required a co-signature at that height unless the
transaction re-issues the TLD certificate. If the TLD beacon cannot be
read the mobile index degrades open rather than empty. Needs an APK
build (0.19) and an Ariadne zip rebuild to reach devices.
Dashboard balance: it was read once from the gateway at sign-in and
never again, so payments and spends never showed. The sidebar and
Settings figures now come straight from electrum every 15 seconds
while the tab is visible, after every broadcast the page makes, on tab
focus and on a new refresh button; unconfirmed coins count as spendable
(listunspent includes the mempool) with a small "incl. N sat
unconfirmed" line. The header wallet pill asks the dashboard for a
fresh figure when opened, and the register flow keeps its stored
figure current while it watches for funding.
Two gaps the owner panel left open. First, a hidden TLD was only a UI
gate: anyone could still broadcast a REG under it and every indexer
admitted it. Second, there was no way to sell a name without trusting
the other side.
Co-sign rule (consensus, applied in lockstep by bns.js and
resolver-web.js): a REG under a TLD whose records at that height say
policy "cosign" or hidden 1 is indexed only if the transaction carries
the TLD's own certificate. The certificate can only be spent by the
owner's key and is re-issued to them in the same transaction, so it is
a co-signature nobody can forge and nothing is consumed. The TLD map
now keeps the TUPD timeline so policy is evaluated at the REG height.
Owners register under their private TLDs with the certificate added
from their own wallet; third parties under a "cosign" TLD build the
full transaction, sign their inputs and queue it at /api/cosign, where
the owner approves it from the dashboard (signCosignRequest refuses to
sign unless the certificate returns to the same locking script).
Marketplace: a listing is the seller's certificate input plus a price
output signed SIGHASH_SINGLE|ANYONECANPAY, stored by the gateway as a
bulletin board (/api/market, verified against the on-chain owner and
pruned when the certificate moves). The buyer completes it in one
transaction, so the seller is paid exactly when the name moves.
Cancelling also spends the certificate once so the offer is void.
Site: market.html, Sell sub-tab and Pending approvals in the portal,
Market link in nav and footer, six dictionaries extended, cache tags
bumped. Verified on chipnet: cosigned.sc registered by a throwaway
wallet through the queue with the .sc certificate back at the owner;
aloevera.test listed and delisted through the API.
Ariadne's resolver-web.js copy and the mobile Bns.java port still need
the co-sign rule; until then they admit REGs this index rejects.
The wallet dropdown had become a navigation menu (My names, Admin panel)
while wallet facts were nowhere. Now a Dashboard button sits left of the
wallet pill on every page while signed in, and the wallet menu shows the
address, balance and holdings, copy address / token address, the faucet,
wallet settings and sign out. The admin panel moves into the dashboard
sidebar and only appears for the operator wallet. Translations included.
BuiltInWallet.signMessage read `recovery` from libauth's recoverable
signature, but libauth v3 names it `recoveryId`. The flag byte came out as
0, so verifiers recovered the right key only when the true recovery id
happened to be 1. Signed DNS manifests and Studio uploads failed with
"signature does not match current on-chain NFT owner" and a different
derived address each attempt. Read the right field, fail loudly if it is
missing, rebuild the browser bundle and move every importer to the new
bundle URL. Also lands the registrar's signRecordsManifest that the bundle
already shipped.
Owners had no way to put a real page behind a name without running Sia
tooling themselves. Sirius Studio (studio.html, js/studio.js) embeds
GrapesJS (BSD-3, vendored under vendor/grapesjs so nothing loads from a
third party) with three starter templates; Publish exports one
self-contained index.html plus the editor project, uploads both to the
name's own folder bns/<name>/ on Sia, and sets the s3 record on chain if
the name does not point there yet. Drafts save to the same folder.
Gateway: /api/site/<name>[/<path>] — list, read-through, PUT and DELETE.
Every write carries a wallet signature over (name, path, body hash,
timestamp) that must recover to the current NFT owner, and writes are
confined to bns/<name>/ so no name can touch another name's bucket.
Dashboard menu is now Web-Builder, Domain names, My TLDs, Settings, Sign
out; Overview and Wallet folded into Domain names and Settings, Docs is a
link in Settings.
The portal was a flat page with tabs that asked for the password or PIN on
every visit and offered little beyond a records form. Owners need a
control panel they can live in.
Sign in once: the recovery phrase is kept encrypted under a
non-extractable browser key (IndexedDB) so the next visit opens the
dashboard silently; sign-out or the Settings toggle destroys it. Payments
approve with one click unless "Ask for PIN before payments" is on.
Dashboard: left menu (Overview, Domain names, My TLD list, Wallet,
Register name/TLD, Settings). Per-name detail with a summary, a DNS
record table (A, AAAA, CNAME, MX, TXT, NS, SRV, CAA) that signs the
manifest, content & hosting (h, s3, p, ip, tls), a redirect tab (u),
ownership transfer (UPD that re-issues the certificate to the recipient)
and zone-file/JSON export. Per-TLD detail with policy, on/off, owner
registration and the public list of names under it. Overview flags names
that point nowhere or lack DNS.
