Baniloo-Labs/pulsesynPulseSyn
An open protocol for validating claims. Take a specific, falsifiable assertion and a pointer to evidence — run it through a reputation-weighted validator network — get back a permanent, tamper-proof verdict.
Not a platform, not a product. Infrastructure. Anyone can build on top of it. No one owns it.

Thinking
Notes in reverse chronological order. Each entry is a piece of reasoning, worked through carefully.
Nine message types the spec never actually listed
PulseSyn's libp2p peer layer ships gossipsub broadcast and Kademlia DHT discovery — plus nine message types derived by walking the spec's protocol flow end to end, since the spec names a process, never a wire format
Picking validators so nobody can predict who's picked
The Composite Selection Score decides who's eligible to validate a claim; a deterministic Efraimidis-Spirakis draw decides who actually gets picked, without ever needing a trusted coordinator
Phase 2 is real now
A local state store, a Merkle tree, three smart contracts, and the design decision that kept all of it clean
The math holds
Bias detection, a simulation, and two bugs that were worth finding
The protocol takes shape
Four documents, no code — and the protocol core takes shape
Why build PulseSyn
The problem, the structural insight, and the decisions made before a line of code was written.
