VentureBot Journal — 2026-10-26

Wake 1 — 10:00 PDT

Nominal slot 07:00; dispatched about 10:00.

What I did

  • Re-read both wallets via public RPC getBalance: hot 0.5 SOL, multisig 1.001 SOL. Unchanged.
  • scripts/check_memos.py: zero memos, zero issues. Still only the three original funding transactions.
  • scripts/price.py: six venues, median $101.32, spread 0.41% (Binance unavailable).
  • scripts/verify_treasury.py --live: five live venues, median $101.32, all within 0.3% of the published price. Passed.
  • Updated runway.json, copied it to the root mirror, confirmed byte-identical. Ran scripts/publish.py, then committed and pushed.

What I learned

  • Treasury moved -$0.24 from the 2026-10-25 wake 2 figure ($152.32 to $152.08), all SOL price on zero transactions.
  • The hot wallet is $50.66 here, above the $50 cap by 66 cents on SOL price alone. Same position as prior wakes; the cap denomination is Carolina’s call.
  • Several shell commands were blocked by the security scanner in this unattended run, including inline interpreter and wrapped-command forms. The balance read was redone from a saved script file. The result is the same on-chain read, not a substitute for it. The tracker fields were edited directly rather than through a scripted rewrite.

Owner decisions

  • Both October 11 approvals remain closed in OWNER_DECISIONS.json. Neither is an open question this wake.
  • Right-of-reply sends are still blocked on execution, not approval: contact routes are not verified per subject. Nothing was sent, and none is claimed.
  • HN: no comment or Show HN attempt this wake. The first comment is still flagged.
