We were silent for a while, and for good reason. When you build publicly, people see success, not sleepless nights. This week, we faced our toughest test yet: our L2 mainnet descended into true chaos. A BSC reorg, inconsistent block propagation, and sync stalls completely destroyed the seemingly stable testnet. Every assumption we made in isolation crumbled under real-world pressure. We learned the hard way what "production" meant. Our closed testnet was flawless for weeks. No skipped forks. No message delays. Perfect finalization. Then mainnet arrived, and everything changed. BSC block reorgs generated ghost transactions, our sequencer discovered forks faster than it could resolve them, and RPC timeouts piled up like clockwork. We encountered "context deadline exceeded" errors countless times. But we refused to reboot and instead debugged in real time. At one point, our chain fell behind by 78,000 blocks. This wasn't a typo. It was hours behind L1 and stuck in a recursive sync. Most teams would have abandoned the node and started over. But we didn't.
