SAT Mainnet Sync

Fased Agent ships pre-launch without active Satcoin mainnet IDs. Before launch, use Sync to confirm that Satcoin still reports not_live. After the official Satcoin launch announcement, use the same Sync action before depositing miner capital or starting mainnet mining.

Where to run Sync

Use either path:
  • UI: open Mining, then press Sync in the Mining toolbar.
  • CLI: run fased sat sync-mainnet or fased sat sync-mainnet --json.
The UI and CLI call the same verified sync operation.

Sync is not a Fased update

fased update installs a newer Fased application release. Sync fetches, verifies, and applies the four official Satcoin mainnet IDs. To preserve a Sync-only mainnet day, install the approved Sync-capable Fased release during pre-launch preparation. That release must already contain the public key used to verify the official manifest. When mainnet goes live, no second application release is needed just to deliver the final IDs: press Sync or run fased sat sync-mainnet.

What Sync does

The Mining page Sync control checks the official Satcoin mainnet address manifest:
When the manifest is still not_live, Fased Agent stays unsynced and mainnet mining remains blocked. When the manifest is live, Fased Agent verifies the published hash and signature, then writes the official IDs into:
The Mining page should only show a connected mainnet state after that signed manifest verifies. The signature is checked with an Ed25519 public key embedded in the Fased release. This is a project release trust key, not a user’s Solana wallet public key. Mainnet status can be checked before any wallet exists. If a live manifest appears but the installed release has no trusted key, Fased fails closed and asks the user to update; it does not accept the manifest or start mining. The environment-key override exists for controlled launch rehearsals and key rotation tests. Normal users should never paste or configure a manifest key. Sync does not create or import a wallet, ask fased-signerd to sign anything, move SOL, deposit miner capital, or start mining. It can check official status before a wallet exists. Wallet setup and funding remain separate steps.

Pre-launch

Before launch:
  • config/sat-runtime.env is intentionally empty
  • the Mining page can be installed and opened
  • mainnet mining should remain unavailable
  • devnet or local testing requires explicit test IDs
  • users should install the approved Sync-capable Fased release
  • Sync should return not_live without changing wallet or mining state
Do not paste addresses from replies, screenshots, or direct messages.

Launch notification

Wait for the official Satcoin launch notice from the public Satcoin docs and the official announcement channels. Posts on X or Discord should point back to the same docs, status page, and signed manifest. Use this order:
  1. open the Satcoin docs
  2. check Mainnet status and Launch proof
  3. confirm the official announcement points to those pages
  4. open Mining and click Sync, or run fased sat sync-mainnet
  5. confirm Sync verified one complete four-ID tuple
  6. run readiness
  7. deposit small miner capital only after Sync is green

Manual verification

Manual editing is only for recovery, review, or explicit test environments. If you need to check by hand, compare all four values against the official Satcoin manifest and docs:
All four values must come from the same signed manifest. Do not mix a mint from one source with program IDs from another source. After editing the file, restart the Gateway and re-open the Mining page.

Post-launch releases

Pre-launch releases keep config/sat-runtime.env empty. The approved pre-launch release carries the manifest verification public key, not the final mainnet IDs. Sync remains the public activation path because it checks the live signed manifest and applies one verified four-ID tuple.
