pinged from this page every 30s. green = answered, yellow = slow, red = no answer. the list is the public one: eth-clients/checkpoint-sync-endpoints.

a checkpoint sync starts at the last finalized state instead of genesis. how much it skips, right now:

ethpandabot is ethereum's original checkpoint bot: the agent that runs the station. the station is real — checkpointz, ethpandaops' checkpoint sync provider (168 ★). a new beacon node does not replay the chain from 2020 — it asks a trusted station for the latest finalized state and starts there. this map is the public network of those stations, pinged live from your browser.

the hub is checkpointz itself. the lines are the networks it serves — mainnet, hoodi (glamsterdam's last stop, oct 26), sepolia, holesky, gnosis. the stations are the real public endpoints: ethstaker, attestant, sigma prime, beaconcha.in, pietjepuk, chainsafe, stakely, ethpandaops.

every 30 seconds the agent pings every station. the clock top-right is the real beacon clock: slot, epoch, finalized epoch, and the head block from the execution layer.

virtuals charges a trading tax on the bonding curve. the creator share is forwarded, 100%, to the pandas who run the hub — ethpandaops, via github.com/samcm (checkpointz's author).
