Like always, the dev is at work building out CHIT. Catch up with what he’s done recently;
1. The Stage 2 pool has been live on testnet at
chit.tools since the 19th. It's ungated, so deposit some test ETH, run a fleet, exit, whatever you like. Seven campaigns and a few dozen buys so far and every charge posted on time. Gas sponsorship for dapps and session keys for the bot went out in the same push.
2. Two partnerships landed in the bot as well. HEY (
heyresearch.xyz) now puts a builder card on every token the bot shows: whether the team is actually shipping, verified or not, commits and releases in the last 30 days. Orus adds a safety line under the price: honeypot check, buy and sell tax, how much LP is burned, bundler and sniper share, and the deployer's track record. Between them you get "is this team real" and "is this token safe" before you touch a buy button. A third partner is close; we'll announce it when it's signed.
Two more things are in the review queue this week, on branches with tests.
The bot is getting a redesign and a mainnet mode, same the current Chit bot, no new link. The token card becomes a picture: price and pool on top,
@HeyResearch’s builder record and
@Orus_agent safety read each under their own mark, the same buttons underneath. On mainnet the bot holds nothing of yours. You connect your wallet from the bot, create your own session account, grant the bot's key a bounded session (how much per trade, how much in total, until when) and sign one message. Buy is then one call on your account, and you can pause or revoke it from your wallet in a single transaction. Sells stay in the app during the beta. The testnet playground stays behind a button, so nothing you use today goes away.
A Chrome extension, in two stages. Stage 1: open any Robinhood Chain token on dexscreener, blockscout, Orus, HEY or fomo and the chit card appears in the corner with the HEY and Orus reads and a "trade it on chit" button into the bot. Stage 2: buy from that card with your own wallet. The extension never holds a key and never builds a transaction;
chit.tools builds the router call, your wallet signs it. Stage 1 goes out with the mainnet beta, stage 2 right after.
Now the part you've been waiting for. We're aiming for a capped mainnet beta this week.
Before that lands, a co-dev spent this week reading the whole money path with one question in mind: what breaks when the ETH is real. He came back with a written review and a test for each thing he found. The contracts are fine. The service that drives them has gaps that cost nothing with free testnet ETH and would cost real money on mainnet. None of it has been exploited and there's no real money in it today, but it gets fixed before there is.
That's the work this week, split between the two of us and already underway: crash safe transactions so a dropped RPC response can't double charge anyone, a contract change so the pool pays the operator back for withdrawals it fronts, faster sweeps with an alert when a posting fails, and CI that stops untested code reaching production. First trades on mainnet will be CHIT and a short list of memes on Robinhood chain; the list grows from there.
