Good day,
This is an application to @deathwing for another Claude application. It ends on 26th May, and I want to proactively apply so I don't get downtime.
I am going to include the GitLab stats on what I have been working on for Hive. Please note that while the repos here are open-source on https://gitlab.syncad.com/hive/, they are far from ready. This is across 30 days. Special thanks to @blocktrades for creating the repos and to @gandalf for the runners in the pipeline (they have been a super value-add).

This month was more isolating what worked vs what did not. And this resulted in addition of more siblings. Please note that there are 14 more repos that are experimental and not part of the open source repos in Hive gitlab.
Tangible Results
A major success with my game app on google play able to send a transfer to any hive account from inside the game to hive-engine or Solana.
Status bar pinned across every page: current height (#1,447,298), committee size,
block count, fuel reserve (998,400), default namespace (astralwars). The latest
finalised blocks land on the left as they finalise. Recent bridge events show
from-account → destination → amount on the right. Search box accepts block height,
block hash, namespace, or account.
Every cross-chain event has its own page: emitted-block, source account, destination
pubkey, epoch/nonce, and an attestation progress bar that fills as committee
members sign off. Event 8d5c28b8...403d7cffb68b shown — 20 STELLARUM from
bf72a417 to 0eff85d1...35b5, fully attested.
Three tiers, committee-updatable, read live from chain state:
- Fixed-shop pools — free, Phase 3, intra-namespace swaps at admin-set rates
- AMM pools — 10M fuel, Phase 4, constant-product market-makers with LP shares
- Flash loans — 50M fuel, Phase 5, atomic borrow-and-return; requires AMM pools
I am not explaining any major tech info, until I am done building everything. But we have a working chain system and with a devnet launched at https://velocity.surgentgaming.com/health with a working bridge system that works with both Hive and Solana.
There are 2 ways that my game app could communicate with Velocity.
a) A Unity SDK, as it is a game made with Unity
b) A JS SDK, as my game uses a Node.js backend.
There is much more to build, but this is the start of what has been achieved. And in time, I want there to be a way where a microwave running skyrim can connect to hive.
