Settlement for indoor mammals.
Felis Catus is a trust-minimized coordination protocol for households that already have a cat. Finality is achieved when the validator sits down.
An interactive meditation on finality. No token. No mint. The cat already owns the house.
01 — Protocol
A chain that already finalized.
Most networks ask you to believe in a future state. This one asks you to believe the cat is on the sofa. That belief has held for twelve thousand years.
| Consensus | Proof of Loaf. Block producers rotate by who is currently occupying the warmest rectangle in the room. |
|---|---|
| Data availability | The windowsill. If the sun moves, the data moves. Reorgs are called “getting down.” |
| MEV | Moving Empty Vessels. Food-bowl extraction is permissionless and occurs at 06:00 UTC±the household. |
| Slashing | A spray bottle. Equivocation is rare; sitting on keyboards is not. |
| Bridging | There is no bridge. The cat is already on both sides of every door. |
02 — Mechanics
How value accrues.
Value does not accrue. Hair does. Participants supply warmth, open doors, and pretend not to notice the vase.
| Bond | One lap, posted continuously. Unbonding period: the cat decides. |
|---|---|
| Yield | Purring. Non-transferable. Not a security. Barely a sound. |
| Gas | Paid in treats. Failed transactions still consume the treat. |
Roadmap
- Genesis loaf
Validator set of one. Still the canonical chain.
- Horizontal scaling
Additional sofas. No sharding; just more furniture.
- Nighttime liveness
3 a.m. zoomies as a periodic liveness check.
- Nothing else
Feature freeze. The protocol is the cat.
03 — Governance
“The house is a rollup. The cat is the sequencer. You are the data-availability committee, and you are late.”
On-chain comment, unsigned, 04:12
Proposals are submitted by staring. Votes are weighted by who blinked first. There is no token-weighted council because there is no token. Attempts to form a DAO were absorbed into a nap.
04 — Specification
Felis Catus Protocol, informal.
| Client | Any mammal that pays rent. Light clients may be dogs; they are not consulted. |
|---|---|
| State root | Wherever the last sunbeam was. Checkpoints are optional and usually ignored. |
| Finality gadget | Closed eyes. Two consecutive closed-eye slots constitute economic finality. |
| Upgrade path | None. Hard forks are called “moving house” and are strongly discouraged by the validator. |
| License | The cat’s. You have a non-exclusive, revocable license to live here. |
