Getting started
In 30 seconds
- This site is unofficial; it never connects a wallet or sends a transaction
- The Genesis Plan is full; the HELIX contracts are on chain, and the official HELIX dApp went live on 2026-09-28
- Every number shows its source; nothing missing on chain is made up
Welcome. In about five minutes this guide explains two things: what HELIX is, and how to get the most out of this site.
What HELIX is
AWAKE HELIX Protocol (HELIX for short) is a protocol running on the Anubis chain. Its core token is AiLGNS and its rules are set out in the whitepaper. From 15 to 19 September 2026 the official Genesis Plan fundraise took place, and it has now filled. In September 2026 the HELIX protocol contracts (the AiLGNS token, emission, the power ledger, the protocol reserve and so on) were deployed on Anubis, and the official HELIX dApp (awakehelix.io) went live on 2026-09-28. Whether AiLGNS can be bought, the protocol reserve, total power and when the protocol starts are on HELIX on-chain status; the state of the five AiLGNS pools is on market data.
For the protocol in brief, read the HELIX quick reference: what the whitepaper says beside what the chain does, on one page.
What this site is
HELIX Observatory is an unofficial data portal, built and maintained independently by one person. It does three things:
- Reads real data from the chain and turns it into pages you can understand.
- Walks newcomers through the basics in these guides, and explains the whitepaper in the rules section.
- Offers team tools: any address's team report is free; the full member list, notes and groups are free once you register and sign in.
Public chain data and team reports are open to everyone, no sign-in needed. The "Members" view of the Team page (the full member list, notes and groups) is free once you register and sign in; Managing your team explains how. Notes, groups, tracked addresses, your saved address and recent lookups in your account are stored on this site's server, and every sign-in records your IP address and device.
How the site is organized
The tab bar at the bottom (the top navigation on a computer) has five entries, each one tap away:
| Entry | What you find |
|---|---|
| Home | The Genesis helix first (one point per Genesis contribution; enter an address to light up your own); then today at a glance: once the site knows your address, your own and your team's payouts and performance today; plus the day's deposit round and the latest on-chain activity |
| Me | Me: enter your wallet address here once (just the address, no wallet connection) and Home, Me and Team show it from then on; see its payouts, power, Genesis records and relations, and sign in, switch language and theme here |
| Team | Team: any address's team report (free); its "Members" view has the full member list, notes and groups (free once signed in) |
| Data | Four groups at the top of the page: Today (Daily recap), Activity (Contract changes, Money flows), Protocol (HELIX on-chain status, the official LGNS dApp's New Eco Turbo and the official LGNS Cross-chain burn), History (Genesis Plan, Market, Community) |
| Learn | Learn: the immersive whitepaper guide and HELIX in one picture at the top, then these beginner guides, the Project overview, the one-page HELIX quick reference, and the official docs |
A few more tools:
- Address search: paste any
0xaddress into the search at the top and press Enter to open that address's page with its payouts, power, Genesis records and relations. On a computer you can also press/or Ctrl/Cmd + K to open it. - Language: 简 / 繁 / EN (under Me on phones and tablets, at the top on a computer).
- Theme: dark or light (likewise).
- Block height: on tablets and wide desktop windows the header shows the latest Anubis block number live (it is hidden on phones and narrower desktop windows).
- Account: tap "Sign in" at the top right (on phones too); the page it opens switches between "Sign in" and "Register" at the top. Once signed in, your initial sits there instead and opens My account, where you see your account details and change your passwords. The same entry is also near the bottom of Me.
- Footer: the whitepaper PDF, the official dApp link and the disclaimers.
Checking a number
Under every live number there is a line of small print such as "● Verifiable on-chain · 1 minute ago":
- Status dot: green means the read is fine, yellow means it has not refreshed for a while, red means this read failed.
- Tap the line to open the number's provenance: "Direct chain read" when it comes straight from the blockchain, "Indexer" when it comes from this site's indexer (used for things like community relations that need a lot of history to be aggregated), plus the contract addresses, the block it was read at and when it was updated.
- Every link in there opens the Anubis explorer. Related numbers are read at one and the same block so they agree with each other, and they refresh in the background while you stay on the page.
Tap the "?" next to a term for a one-sentence explanation. To check a number yourself, see Verify any number on the explorer.
Reading the status labels
| What you see | What it means |
|---|---|
| Live on-chain | Real chain data that updates with new blocks |
| No reading yet | The HELIX contracts are on chain, but this site has no on-chain reading for this item yet: either the protocol has not started settling, or this site does not read this item yet. The value shows "—" |
| Whitepaper model projection · contracts are authoritative | A figure calculated from whitepaper formulas to help explain the mechanism, not actual chain data |
| Schematic | An animation or diagram that explains a mechanism and does not represent real values |
| Indexer syncing | The indexer is still catching up with the latest blocks, so the data is temporarily incomplete |
| Data source unavailable | This read returned nothing; it will retry automatically |
| Data may be out of date | The data has not refreshed for a while |
| — | No data. This site never fills gaps with estimates |
The principle is simple: what exists on chain is shown as it is, with its source; what does not exist shows "—" and the reason, never an invented value.
