TSUNAGI update.
Current measured node footprint:
• RSS: 341 MB
• Heap: 36 MB
• LMDB: 299 MB (file-backed, evictable)
• CPU: ~0.8%
Current state:
• 36 canonical blocks
• 35 longest streak
• 0 panics
• Guardian ACTIVE
• Reality Proofs: 13 / 18
The new Cockpit brings together:
• Production
• Guardian
• Reality Proofs
• Resource Footprint
• Operational Memory
The goal isn’t to claim everything works.
The goal is to know what is proven, what isn’t, and why.
Reality decides.
TSUNAGI remembers.

still testing things out but the mainnet is up and running!

Cardano node diversity just got a new contender.
I have a lot of respect for the work teams at @blinklabs_io and @Amaru_Cardano.
But they are not the only ones building.
After a month of nonstop development — often 17 hours a day — an independent, unfunded project has quietly taken shape.
Meet TSUNAGI.
An independent Cardano node architecture written entirely in Zig.
No grants.
No institutional funding.
Just engineering.
The site is now live:
tsunagi.tech
If this kind of independent infrastructure matters to you, support through the TSUNA stake pool or $tsunagi helps sustain the work.
Let It Run. Let It Resolve.

Building a Cardano node from scratch in Zig is fun.
But the real adrenaline hits when you’re deep in the protocol jungle debugging why a relay refuses your blocks.
This week:
• ChainSync edge cases
• BlockFetch body availability
• Header continuity rules
Hours of logs. Tiny fixes. Huge lessons.
Now fragments carry full block bodies and the system is finally behaving like a real node.
Building is exciting.
But debugging the beast is the real hype moment.
TSUNAGI is getting closer. 🇯🇵
