Bootstrap Topology
The public network currently runs with multiple DNS seeds, bootstrap nodes, and a live explorer to support opening-stage operations.
CPH Core
Independent chain operations, public explorer access, and bootstrap-era network visibility.
Network
This page summarizes the public-facing surfaces currently used by the live CPH network: DNS seeds, bootstrap nodes, explorer endpoints, and the operational discipline around launch readiness.

Live Bootstrap Topology
Network Model
These are the current building blocks of the live network surface.

Operational Visibility
Status APIs, health probes, mempool inspection, and public block views are all surfaced from the same public-facing stack.
Launch Discipline
CPH uses staged opening, handoff approval, signer return tracking, and live readiness gates instead of treating launch as a one-shot event.

Operational Notes
Why This Matters
CPH is trying to make the public bootstrap layer visible instead of opaque.
Open Participation
Anyone should be able to inspect the chain, run a node, join the bootstrap layer, and review releases without needing private infrastructure.
Verifiable Distribution
Release candidates, manifests, detached signatures, and trusted signer packets are part of the intended public trust model.
Independent Infrastructure
CPH is designed to rely on its own DNS seeds, bootstrap nodes, explorer surface, and operator topology rather than a hidden private stack.
Bitcoin-like Discipline
The project stays close to Bitcoin-style monetary rules while building a staged launch process that makes the earliest network state easier to audit.
