NERON & LYRA

NERON & LYRA is the risk layer for Robinhood Chain. About 2,000 new tokens launch on the chain every day, and on our own node 42% of new tokens stop trading within 24 hours (9,559 tokens, Aug 10 – Sep 22). Scanners label contracts, but retail money is lost on two things a label misses: tokens that simply can't be sold, and how a token was launched. After feedback from the Arbitrum Foundation during this buildathon, we moved the whole product to risk — and it runs live on mainnet, on infrastructure we operate ourselves.

THE RISK LAYER (live):

• Sell test. A real buy and an immediate sell simulated in one eth_call against the live pool on our own full node (state override — nothing is sent or paid), for every token inside an open bot every 5 minutes, the top 300 of the board every 10 minutes, and any token on demand — ETH, WETH and USDG pools. 82,000+ tests run so far.

• CAN'T SELL gate. The Desk refuses to build a buy for a token whose sell test failed in the last 10 minutes, and bot creation is blocked for it. Hooks that reject a buy and a sell in the same transaction are told apart from real traps by the pool's own recent trades, so a working token is never blocked by our test's limits.

• Bot buy-brake. Running bots stop buying — never selling — when their token's sell test starts failing. On by default in every bot type, with a per-bot switch.

• Risk Level — Low / Medium / High / Critical from five launch facts (deployer route, pool type, liquidity at launch, reused symbol, scanner verdict). Fit on 7,647 tokens and checked out-of-sample on the newest 1,912: AUC 0.801 vs 0.708 for our previous scanner score. Critical tokens stop trading within 24 h far more often than Low ones. It ranks tokens; it is not a price forecast.

• Open API: nlyra.xyz/api/risk?token=0x… — sell test, live facts, level and the reasons behind it.

THE PLATFORM IT RUNS ON (live since July 2026):

• Own infrastructure: Robinhood Chain full node (Arbitrum Nitro, synced at the tip — nlyra.xyz/node), RPC gateway, own indexer and sub-second live charts. No third-party API in the risk path.

• NERON, the forensic engine: 109,000+ tokens scanned and verdict-tagged, 55,000+ deployer wallets attributed, launches tracked for 72 hours, net bundle detector, Organic score and Constellation holder maps. Inline in Telegram: @NLYRAScanBot <contract>.

• LYRA, the voice: reads verified Solidity function by function, moderates the community and answers holders on Telegram, web and voice.

• THE DESK (nlyra.xyz/desk): trading terminal on our own data — live board with verdicts, 1-second candles, wallet history rebuilt from chain, smart-money feed, Telegram Mini Apps.

• Non-custodial bots: Spot Grid v4, Infinity Grid v4, Shadow copy trading, Sniper, DCA, TWAP, limit orders, with a paper mode on live pools. 177 bots created on-chain plus 42 in paper mode, by 29 traders. Funds stay in the user's own escrow; the keeper can only run the strategy.

• OTC escrow (nlyra.xyz/otc), Send-To (buy from one wallet, receive in another), launchpad with locked liquidity (42 launches), staking: 395M NLYRA staked across v1 and v2 (~45% of circulating).

• USDG (Paxos) is first-class: USDG grid contracts, USDG limit orders and quotes in the Desk, OTC settlement in USDG, and the sell test runs on USDG pools too.

• Real Yield Staking v2 — live on mainnet and audited by Coinsult (0 critical, 0 medium; reports at github.com/Coinsult/Audits): 50% of NLYRA's creator trading fees streamed to stakers, 89M NLYRA staked in its first two days, claim in ETH / NLYRA / USDG, stake from one wallet and withdraw from another, Position Market for locked stakes. App at nlyra.xyz/newstake/app, also published on GitHub Pages as a standalone app that runs with no server of ours.

OPEN CONTRACTS. Everything that holds user funds — the smart contracts — is open source, tested and verified: github.com/NlyraProject/nlyra-platform. The Desk, the NERON scanner, the risk engine and the bot keepers are operated by us as hosted services. Every number above is served live by our public APIs (nlyra.xyz/api/desk/stats, /api/risk, /api/staking, /api/launch/list, /api/supply/circulating). Built by a solo founder with two autonomous AI agents. Bootstrapped.

Everything below shipped to Robinhood Chain mainnet inside the submission window (Sep 13 → Sep 30 so far) and is live at nlyra.xyz. Dates are deploy dates; every contract is verified.

• Sep 13 — ArchitectShadow, on-chain copy trading (0xE26dd0A09Cd7bA2F7d0a31e4B625E983B0B1B3D2, Sourcify exact match): mirror any of 196 tracked wallets from your own escrow, with per-position stop-loss/take-profit. 11 Shadow bots created by users since.

• Sep 13 — Wallet history reconstructed from our own node (/api/desk/trader): full per-token trade history and PnL for any wallet, no third-party indexer.

• Sep 13 — Launchpad fix for MetaMask mobile: gas is now estimated on our node (creators were getting 'Failed to fetch' against the public RPC).

• Sep 15 — Indexer throughput: large log windows are served by our own node (selective routing); candles stopped lagging.

• Sep 16 — Net bundle detector and launch-forensics CLI: sniper share with plumbing excluded, funding traced on our node, cluster status, token age vs the chain median. Receipts instead of guesses.

• Sep 17 — Telegram Mini Apps: The Desk (t.me/LYRAA_AI_bot/desk) and Bots (t.me/LYRAA_AI_bot/bots) with deep links to any token, sent by LYRA in chat. Desk explainer video narrated by LYRA's own voice.

• Sep 18 — @NLYRAScanBot inline mode: type @NLYRAScanBot <contract> in any Telegram chat and get the verdict, holders and a one-tap bot preset. v4 compound bots can now be created straight from Telegram with MetaMask or Trust Wallet.

• Sep 18 — Scanner upgrades: Sourcify fallback for source (no more false 'hidden code'), launchpad V4/HR factories recognized, ownerless LP-vault detection. Burn receipts and circulating supply are now computed from our own node (staking rewards, PinkLock and treasury reconciled) and exposed at /api/supply/circulating.

• First real bots on the v4 contracts — Spot Grid v4 (0xF8ef52605FBcc968B24b7FdBD7e93c752A659D5f) and Infinity v4 (0xBdC77e3D589D161489f7C986d8f654F30b88DDeb), deployed Sep 11–12 with compounding and a self-funded gas reserve: 16 v4 bots created by users during the window, 9 Infinity v4 positions open right now.

• Sep 19 — OTC Desk live (ArchitectOTC 0x9656513aC910a9839B51dB7c92a6914ABB4F52e8): non-custodial block trades in ETH, USDG or NLYRA, settled atomically. Organic score on every token page: how much of the volume is real buyers.

• Sep 20 — Send-To (ArchitectSendTo v2 0x0eF655f16345afb66b42d4e65B71a16052d1Ddc0): buy or sell from one wallet, receive in another. Sniper bot with paper mode: launches traded with simulated fills at real curve prices before risking funds. nlyra.xyz/wiki: "Bots, from zero", with a narrated video.

• Sep 24–26 — Holder maps and paper grids: Constellation holder maps rebuilt (DEX routers no longer flagged as insiders; real fleets detected). Paper mode for Infinity Grid v4 (1,380/1,380 simulated fills identical to the contract).

• Sep 25 — Arbitrum Foundation feedback: a feedback call during the buildathon told us to position NLYRA as a risk tool, in the Desk and in the bots. Everything below follows that.

• Sep 26 — Risk layer live: sell-test service (buy + sell simulated against the live pool on our own node, ETH/WETH/USDG pools); CAN'T SELL gate that refuses Desk buys and bot creation for tokens that fail it; bot buy-brake wired into every bot type (switched on Sep 29); menu cut to Desk · Bots · Check a token · Docs.

• Sep 27 — Risk Level v1 live: Low / Medium / High / Critical from five launch facts, out-of-sample AUC 0.801 vs 0.708 for our previous score; open API at nlyra.xyz/api/risk.

• Sep 27–28 — Real-time hardening: sub-second tape and candles under node saturation, public-RPC fallbacks. Bot "now" price made robust (a stuck pool rescan could freeze the displayed price; trading was never affected).

• Sep 27–28 — Real Yield Staking v2 built: fee splitter + staking + Position Market, wallet-to-wallet position transfers, two internal audit rounds (0 critical/high/medium), 211/211 tests on a mainnet fork. Preview page live at nlyra.xyz/newstake. Public repo refreshed with every contract: github.com/NlyraProject/nlyra-platform.

• Sep 29 — Real Yield Staking v2 on mainnet: RealYieldStaking (0x5CB0Cb16cA019bcff4E494b32575848E4CdB5aF8), NlyraFeeSplitter (0x8300Ef5cC02cAb1D141dBE1c0B33d8Ac115F2D48) and PositionMarket (0x3BcA70536aC7FfB44023e971d204dAb7c23E95D7) deployed and verified; NLYRA's creator fees now flow to stakers, collected daily and paid out over 7 days. Staking app live at nlyra.xyz/newstake/app.

• Sep 30 — External audit by Coinsult published: four reports (github.com/Coinsult/Audits), 0 critical, 0 medium, every finding resolved or acknowledged; the one Medium was re-tested by Coinsult and reclassified as Low, and the app now spots unwanted "tiny locks" and clears them in one click. The staking app is also published on GitHub Pages as a standalone app (public RPC, no server of ours), so it keeps working without us. 89M NLYRA staked in v2 within two days.

Next before Oct 4: the Risk Level shown in the Desk and at bot creation. Staking v2 on mainnet, its app and the external audit report, listed here on Sep 28, all shipped on Sep 29–30. The items we had listed on Sep 18 (Infinity v4 presets, approve-once buys, Chainlink rail, WalletConnect in Mini Apps) moved after the buildathon so the risk layer could ship first.
