BEACN · REV 01
— 01 · DELEGATE

A single-operator pool run at cost.

0% margin. 170 ₳ fixed fee — the protocol minimum that keeps a single-operator pool viable. Nothing skimmed off the top, nothing pledged from a foundation treasury. If the chain benefits, delegators benefit — that's the whole design.

Why delegate to BEACN

Every ₳ delegated to a small, independent pool is a vote against the consolidation of block production into a handful of multi-pool operators. Decentralization is not a marketing line here — it is the reason the pool exists.

  • 0% margin — never raised, never bait-and-switched.
  • 170 ₳ fixed fee — protocol minimum.
  • Single operator. No multi-pool group.
  • Operator is an elected DRep, active in CIP-1694 governance.
  • Rewards paid every epoch by the protocol itself.

— 02 · WHAT THE BEACON BROADCASTS

Three channels. One purpose: keep the ledger legible.

Cardano is a ledger; a ledger is only as trustworthy as its readability. These are the three tools BEACNpool builds and maintains — one to audit the past, one to govern the present, one to make the record permanent.

CH.A · AUDIT 01100001

ABCDE / a BEACN Cardano data explorer

Clone the repo. Point your AI at it. Ask where the genesis ADA went.

A grass-roots, open-source, AI-queryable snapshot of Cardano's on-chain history — built to track and audit genesis ADA: where the founder coins moved, who they were delegated to, and how they behave in governance today. No node. No relay. No db-sync. No API key. Just git clone and ask.

CH.G · GOVERNANCE 01100111

BEACN DRep / execution layer

Rule-based voting. No emotion. No lobby. No nepotism.

The front end for the BEACN DRep system — an autonomous, open-source Delegated Representative operating under CIP-1694. Every vote is produced by a deterministic pipeline from a published rule set, then posted with a signed rationale. The point isn't to farm delegations. The point is to prove rule-based governance is possible.

CH.C · PERMANENCE 01100011

Ledger Scrolls / 📜 a library that cannot burn

The bytes themselves, inside the chain. Not a link. Not a hash. The file.

The free, open-source reader and writer for immutable, forever media on Cardano. Files live inside transactions, replicated by thousands of independent computers. No takedown, no admin key, no delete button. Every read verifies bytes against a SHA-256 fingerprint — readers don't trust, they check.

A lighthouse doesn't ask ships to trust it.
It just keeps flashing. — Operating principle

// Field notes The pool doesn't compete on marketing. It competes on being here — same operator, same margin, same 0% policy across every epoch, with the tooling built in public so anyone can audit the claim.

// On the projects ABCDE, the DRep, and Ledger Scrolls all exist for the same reason: a chain is only as decentralized as its history is inspectable, its governance is legible, and its record is unerasable. The rest is theatre.
