Reading room

One room, two folders, and a table long enough for an epoch strip.

The Cognit Spindle reading room is the place the appointments happen. It sits in Sudong-myeon, Namyangju, and it is arranged for people studying Solana staking and validator concepts, not for general browsing.

The central table seats the Saturday circle. Weekday desks are the two carrels by the paper-screen window.

How the shelves are filed

Tan folder
Stake-account sheets: stake authority, withdraw authority, delegation, lockup, and the four states from activating to inactive.
Slate folder
Vote-account sheets: commission, vote credits, and the reminder that the identity key is a different string.
Epoch strip
A paper run of slots used on the table to show snapshot, leader schedule, votes, and the reward posting at the boundary.
Commission tray
Paired sample sheets, with invented validator names, for the Saturday exercise that reads commission beside skip rate.

Hours

  • Tuesday – Friday 11:00 – 18:00
  • Saturday 10:00 – 16:00
  • Sunday – Monday Closed

Saturday 10:00–13:00 is the Circle Workshop when a date is on the board. Afternoon carrels that day start after the circle ends. The next open circle date posted in the room is 3 October 2026.

What to bring

  • A notebook, or ask for a pencil at the door
  • A public vote address copied on paper, if your question depends on one
  • The question written in a sentence, especially for a reading hour
  • Time for the hill roads in Sudong-myeon; the room starts on the hour

House rules

  • Voices stay at a table level. The walls are a house, not a hall.
  • Phone calls move outside. Silent notes are welcome.
  • Seed phrases and hardware wallets stay at home. The table uses public addresses and printed examples.
  • Eight is the most the circle table holds. Extra guests wait for another date.

Reserve before you ride out.

Walk-in browsing is a poor fit for a single room that may already be in a private desk. Send a date, then travel once a reader confirms it.
