Archival Node
A read head scans down a stack of fully retained historic records, stops on one and opens its complete body out to the side.
A read head scans down a stack of fully retained historic records, stops on one and opens its complete body out to the side.
Transaction rows wipe into an open block body one after another and the header digest bar seals across the top.
Confirmation blocks stack onto the target record from the bottom up while a gauge beside the pile rises with the depth.
A threshold marker sweeps a row of blocks and every block it passes turns from a dashed provisional outline into a solid finalised one.
Two branches leave the same parent block; the dashed lower candidate brightens and fades back while the upper branch lands a solid block and pulls ahead.
The chain extends one block at a time away from an anchored first block whose stem and ground line never move.
A row of linked blocks steps left by exactly one slot as a new block arrives at the head, where an accent caret dips to mark it.
A digest bar leaves one block's header, crosses the connector and seats itself in the next block's previous-hash slot as the link closes.
A new vertex cites two parent tips at once, both edges drawing outward together until the vertex lands where they meet.
One leaf and the edges and nodes on its authentication path light in order up to the root while the rest of the tree stays recessive.
Four leaf hashes fill, then the two branch nodes above them, then the root, so the hash climbs the tree one level per beat.
The bodies of the oldest blocks drop away oldest-first and leave dashed empty slots, while the header spine stays unbroken.
The orphaned tip block drops out of the canonical line and the heavier two-block branch descends from the side rail into the mainline slot.
A cell of the state grid takes a new value, the change rises into the commitment above and the root ring wipes round once to re-derive.
One altered row in the oldest block turns accent and the mismatch propagates forward, marking each downstream hash link broken in turn.
