# v3vearly live lane stopped 21 Oct 13:50 BKK (exec #3643)
- Not a trading loss: 0 real trades. Ben's Go-live made LIVE_V3VEARLY at 13:48; the lane restarted live=True and 18 s later the startup self test ran.
- Self test (fm_mc5.selftest) samples the 6 newest traded pools in the lane db and looks for a Mint log near the creation block. v3vearly's newest pool was 4 h old (drpc 403 + few signals), the block-from-time estimate drifts, so no Mint was found -> kill() removed the LIVE file. v3early and wlink show the same failure (dry, no effect); v3sg/v3ce/cleane pass because their pools are fresh.
- Fix (fm_mc5.py, bak_exec, changes.log): self test only samples pools < 2 h old; none -> skipped (as with an empty db). A real Mint-topic break on fresh pools still kills. Live lanes pick it up at their next restart; v3vearly (dry) restarted, no kill.
- LIVE file is Ben-only: Ben needs to tap Go-live again (readyoffer/stagewatch should re-offer). Underlying issue still open: drpc 403 starves the lane of signals/feed.
