Codex Gaps: Fracture dates, VM layers, MiberaSets timing — for Zergucci #32
Description
Context
From a codex archaeology session mining PR #31, the interface codebase, and the codex structure. These are gaps that only Zergucci can fill.
Session findings: Jani is the brainchild behind most of the feature set. EXP implemented features like PGP (now departed). Zerker/notzerker handles design/dev. Questions about feature rationale should route to Jani.
GAP-008: Fracture Reveal Dates + Mechanism (OPEN in gaps.json)
You're specifically named in gaps.json as the person who can confirm:
- Exact dates for all 10 reveal phases (Apr–May 2025 tentative)
- The Irys/IPFS metadata swap mechanism — how does the reveal actually work on-chain? What triggers the metadata swap from unrevealed → revealed?
- Were the phases deployed in the order listed (miparcels → miladies → mireveal 1.1–8.8)?
Restricted VM Layers
The Vending Machine has 16 layers, but some are not user-selectable: time period, sun, moon, rising, drug, elements, shadow ranking.
Question: What determines these restricted layers? Is it the archetype system? The Mibera's birth data? Something else? This is completely undocumented.
MiberaSets Timing
MiberaSets shipped on Optimism during the Berachain Wait (Aug–Sep 2024), months before Berachain went live.
Question: Was this strategic (keep holders engaged during the chain delay) or opportunistic (Optimism was ready, so why not)? What was the rationale for launching on Optimism rather than waiting for Berachain?
Timeline Events (Unverified)
Per soju's PR #31 comment, if we have contract addresses we can programmatically verify deployment dates. Can you confirm or provide addresses for:
- EVT-001: Mibera Maker contract deployment date
- EVT-002: Mibera mint date (presale merged 2025-03-18, mint added 2025-04-29 — but actual event?)
- EVT-005: Codex repository created — RESOLVED: 2026-01-15 (verified via GitHub API)
- EVT-006: Candies launch date (contract addresses updated 2025-04-19)
