Andromeda Core posted the final technical report and closure of the FES pilot. The observation window closed on 11 November 2026 at 08:45 UTC, 28 days after it opened. The frozen cohort of 18 wallets remained immutable from October 14 to November 11. Confirmed organic exposure was 0 of 18, with 0 attributed stakes and no conversion data. The verdict is inconclusive: the pre-registered exposure floor of 8 views was never reached, an outcome the grantee presents as a documented finding rather than a refutation of the hypothesis. No technical failure occurred. Two stakes were detected on-chain during the window, both pre-window fixtures and not counted. The grantee reported roughly 1,768 broadcast impressions against a universe of about 19,000 RIF holders, and estimated the expected reach into the 18-wallet cohort at approximately 1.7 wallets under the most favorable interpretation, which it says is why no cohort wallet was confirmed. Andromeda funded the entire pilot; the DAO has not been asked for, and has not paid, anything. No payment is being requested, and the proposal never went to an on-chain vote. The report lists public artifacts including an IPFS snapshot, a Merkle root and generation scripts on GitHub, plus an audit, test plan and requirements matrix. It closes without an outcome-condition claim and responds to questions raised earlier in the thread by Tane and by Curia about reach and distribution.
Sentiment
Consistent. The only post in this window is the grantee's closure report, and it received no replies. The report acknowledges earlier delegate challenges and concludes that broadcast distribution cannot reach a pre-defined cohort at the scale Rootstock needs, framing the inconclusive result as a structural finding rather than a failure of the measurement system.
What to watch
- The FES pilot is closed with an inconclusive result. No payment is requested and the proposal did not go to an on-chain vote, so no vote is pending on it.
- The report argues the reach ceiling applies to any program seeking to activate idle RIF through broadcast-only distribution; no follow-up proposal has been posted.
