Weekly Progress Update
Another week of forward momentum at Helm — strengthening core infrastructure, hardening critical recovery and security layers, and moving key systems closer to Mainnet readiness.
🏆MAIN NET HIGHLIGHTS
I. Copy Trading Recovery
Hardened recovery across open, close, and UNKNOWN states, ensuring failed transactions safely release backing and risk reservations while preserving valid positions and preventing duplicate accounting.
II. Reorg & Finality Protection
Expanded protection against chain reorgs, indexer lag, RPC inconsistencies, and concurrent finality issues, with invalidated finality triggering isolation to prevent new orders from being signed or broadcast.
III. Database Recovery & Isolation
Strengthened database recovery and fault isolation across stale connections, legacy sessions, and prepared transactions, backed by validation of 83 migrations and multiple PostgreSQL regression rounds.
IV. Emergency Shutdown Controls
Validated precise external and manual shutdown mechanisms. In critical failure scenarios, the system can stop new orders and safely roll back in-flight orders, with role-based permissions and legacy-process recovery also covered.
V. Supabase Validation
Completed local validation of database identity, writer isolation, startup integrity, and stale-binding rejection, preparing for independent runtime deployment and disaster recovery.
VI. Code & Integration Stability
Completed TypeScript fixes and regression testing across Copy Trading, recovery, permissions, reorgs, and database isolation, further strengthening BNB integration stability.
🛠️CORE INFRASTRUCTURE ENHANCEMENT
I. Trading & Settlement
Stabilized order book pricing and health indicators, while improving Portfolio settlement states across settled, under review, and unavailable orders.
II. Rewards & Points
Fixed Rewards display issues and strengthened data handling to improve points accuracy and consistency.
III. Wallet & Asset Handling
Improved Backpack connection, post-signature refresh, and asset retrieval, with clearer Devnet detection and recovery guidance.
IV. Faucet Reliability
Standardized Faucet limits on server-side UTC tracking, with automatic revalidation before and after claims and on wallet changes.
V. Stability & Security
Strengthened end-to-end failure handling across wallets, assets, orders, and Faucet flows, keeping the system in a safe state under abnormal conditions.
🔜 NEXT PUSH
I. Helm Native Oracle
The last tweak of Helm Native Oracle, built on Chainlink infrastructure, is now in final optimization. The production-grade quant market test framework is ready, with integration into Helm’s architecture next for end-to-end debugging and validation.
II. Rewards Hub
A whole new Rewards Hub designed to incentivize meaningful activity, strengthen user retention, and keep users engaged across the Helm ecosystem, is coming in next week.
