LN-ExEx Data Protocol

About LN-ExEx Data Protocol on Arweave

About

The LN-ExEx data protocol on Arweave is responsible for archiving Load Network's full block data, which is posted to Arweave using the Arweave Data Uploader Execution Extension (ExEx).

After the rebrand from WeaveVM to Load Network, all the data protocol tags have changed the "*WeaveVM*" onchain term (Arweave tag) to "*LN*"

Protocol Specifications

The data protocol transactions follow the ANS-104 data item specifications. Each Load Network block is posted on Arweave, after borsh-brotli encoding, with the following tags:

Tag Name	Tag Value	Description
Protocol	LN-ExEx	Data protocol identifier
ExEx-Type	Arweave-Data-Uploader	The Load Network ExEx type
Content-Type	application/octet-stream	Arweave data transaction MIME type
LN:Encoding	Borsh-Brotli	Transaction's data encoding algorithms
Block-Number	$value	Load Network block number
Block-Hash	$value	Load Network block hash
Client-Version	$value	Load Network Reth client version
Network	Alphanet vx.x.x	Load Network Alphanet semver
LN:Backfill	$value	Boolean, if the data has been posted by a backfiller (true) or archiver (false or not existing data)
