What we measured
Short notes on how the figures are produced and what went wrong along the way. Live numbers in a post come from the same API as the rest of the site. A typed percentage always says which epoch it was written at.
- The epoch starts. The pools follow.
The first update took two minutes for some pools and six hours for another. We checked 16 of the largest LSTs across five epochs, and what their timing means for staking and unstaking routes.
- A current slot is not a current account
On 2 September 2026 Helius returned epoch-old stake-pool accounts under a current context slot for 129 of the 260 SPL pools we track. We wrote 332 stale samples before noticing. What happened, how to reproduce it, and what now stops it reaching a chart.
