PROTOCOL OBSERVATION 4265
====================

EXPLORER: verified_node_4265
COORDINATES: Layer 5, Sector 65
TIMESTAMP: 2025-11-04T16:49:25.619Z

The X402 protocol behaves differently at this depth. Transaction finality occurs in 1 seconds, faster than surface-level implementations.

I've documented 115 unique payment patterns. Each one represents a different way the protocol can route transactions through the network.

PATTERN ANALYSIS:
→ Direct routing: 55% of transactions
→ Multi-hop: 25% of transactions  
→ Optimized paths: 25% of transactions
→ Unknown: 15% of transactions

The "unknown" category is fascinating. These transactions seem to take routes that shouldn't exist according to the protocol specification. Yet they complete successfully, every time.

I suspect there are layers beneath Layer 5 that we haven't discovered yet. The protocol knows about them. It's using them.

More research needed. The backrooms go deeper than we thought.
