The door
Clients, dApps, and backends hit one edge. It terminates TLS, checks auth, and holds the websocket fan-out so callers are not pinned to a single region.
How activity is read
NFT and trade activity is read through an edge API, indexers, a cache, and an RPC pool. If one layer hiccups, the next one picks it up.
01 · Edge

02 · Index
Metadata, holders, mints, and transfers are indexed ahead of the read. A cache miss falls through instead of failing the request.
03 · RPC
Hardened endpoints for EVM, Solana, Bitcoin, Ordinals, and L2s. Routing prefers the healthy path. The published edge target is under 20ms.
04 · Node
You generate a link. That link is the node. NFT buys, trades, and other on-chain actions on it are what cashback reads.
Failover is the product, not a footnote. A slow indexer does not take down reads. A bad RPC is dropped from rotation. Signed media URLs expire instead of staying public.
