This is the changelog for the documentation. Core itself has no semantic version: its release identifier is the exact commit a deployment was built from, reported by GET /health and by the X-Universe-Release header on every response.

  • Updated: Atomicals explains that prices are per unit, that the fee is charged to both sides, the price and funding refusals, how a timed-out final step is completed once, and why a legacy ARC-20 lot spent elsewhere closes.
  • Updated: Atomicals names the refusals a retry cannot fix (a wallet that does not hold the asset, a listed asset that has moved, funding committed elsewhere) and says a listing leaves the book as soon as its output is spent.
  • Updated: Atomicals Studio adds the reveal window: 3 blocks for a Realm or Subrealm, 100 for an NFT.
  • Updated: Atomicals Studio adds Manage > Separate for NFTs that share one output (as a direct Subrealm claim leaves the parent and child), the early reveal for Realm and direct Subrealm claims, and how a wallet short of funding is reported.
  • Updated: Marketplace v1 gates and Market and reader states say that prices are per unit and that a check never applies an action twice.
  • New: Atomicals Studio, covering every creation tool, its address, and which wallet signs it.
  • Updated: Atomicals now lists each market’s address, every trading action, the asking-price floor, and how to recover a request that timed out.
  • Updated: What Core is describes the /inscribe page, which links to Studio and to Inscribe instead of redirecting.
  • Updated: Market and reader states adds the unknown-outcome lock.

Rebuilt as a documentation site rather than a folder of Markdown guides.

  • New: a protocol support matrix generated from the Core registry snapshot, covering all 29 marketplace protocols against all 13 marketplace actions, with the registry’s own stated reason for every unsupported action.
  • New: a page per marketplace protocol, generated from the same snapshot, carrying its source of truth, indexer, mutation gate, freshness, confirmation, and reorg policy.
  • New: an OpenAPI 3.1 document for the 13 public read endpoints, every one verified against the live service, plus a rendered reference that works without JavaScript.
  • New: explorer pages for search, blocks, transactions, addresses, UTXOs, protocol assets, asset-bearing outputs, and protocol indexes, including an explicit statement of what Core does not do with blocks and transactions.
  • New: task guides for buying, listing, updating and delisting, managing assets from Portfolio, and adding an Ordinals collection, each with prerequisites, verification, failure states, and a recovery path.
  • New: local search, sidebar navigation, breadcrumbs, previous and next, and a source strip on every material page.
  • New: docs.manifest.json, so the Bitcoin Universe documentation portal can ingest this repository.
  • Kept: every accurate fact from the previous guides, and the real product screenshots, converted to WebP.

Dates are the product’s, not this repository’s.

Core’s browser inventory is now generated from the production router, with a concrete URL and quality ownership for every shipped route. Route-family fixtures distinguish real empty results from partial, failed, stale, offline, slow, and edge-case reads. The permanent matrix covers Chromium, Firefox, and WebKit from 320 pixel reflow through phone landscape, tablet, desktop, and wide desktop sizes.

The same release repaired the new Pay, Lightning, Nostr, DLC, staking, Bitcoin L2, and mining surfaces for semantic themes, one clear page heading, safe touch controls, long content, and narrow-screen forms. Visual ownership now covers every route family and material composition in both themes.

The pink identity was replaced by a neutral surface with one brand colour, and a full mobile pass landed. See design and accessibility and responsive behaviour.

Route continuity: Back restores a grid in the first frame at the same scroll position, index pages load only the protocol you opened, and typical route JavaScript dropped by 25 to 60 KB compressed on every major route. See performance.

August 2026, UI 3.0 and its final evolution

Section titled “August 2026, UI 3.0 and its final evolution”

Startup JavaScript cut from 446 KB to 250 KB compressed, immutable asset caching, right-sized WebP derivatives, an HTTP/2 and Brotli-capable edge, and per-market code splitting.

The test frontend and its isolated staging API run the same verified Core release. Dogecoin TAP reads remain available while Marketplace v1 returns an explicit unavailable state, because its execution authorities are not configured there. That is a deployed safety boundary, not a claim about any protocol’s acceptance.

The following guides from the previous structure have moved. Every old path redirects; see moved pages.
