Editing Heliopolis (section)

====Open verification and Zoink====
On 25 March 2026, MindCap uploaded a video announcing Heliopolis's open verification. He stated that it would be continually buffed to be harder than any other verified Top 1 until Heliopolis is verified.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zSoIN-hlHQk</ref> In addition, MindCap set a bounty starting at $2,000 USD for the verifier. The bounty was opened on a [https://ko-fi.com/heliopolis_bounty Ko-fi page] to allow community donations to raise the bounty with a maximum cap of $10,000 USD. The bounty reached $10,700 USD in less than a day and a half after MindCap released the video.<ref>https://x.com/MindCap/status/2037374541748412718?s=20</ref>

Since then, on 6 April, garbag extended the lead again, reaching a record of 47%.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4u5aQmb7Ofw</ref> On 13 April, Abdieldevil achieved a run of 38-97%, nearly going from the second half of the robot to the end.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9JKtUBz2VpQ</ref>

On 27 April, Zoink started playing Heliopolis and achieved runs of 34% and 49-100% within a week.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-MtbPcNE8ls</ref> On 7 May, Zoink announced that he would officially try to verify Heliopolis.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Owc8PE11J9I</ref> He later reached 37% and 40% in the next stream.

On 10 May, Zoink set a world-record run of 37-100%, making him the first player to beat Heliopolis in two runs.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8U0NPdsK8s4&t=5872s</ref> He would get 39% twice and another 40% in the next two streams until 13 May, when he increased the record to 41% and then finally set a new world record, tying garbag's 47% record but going further by a few decimals.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4xjljMHsrgA&t=5342s</ref> He later set a new record of 27-73% in the next stream.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3ChUgKt50U8&t=510s</ref>

On 17 May, he would attempt to play Heliopolis with the Click Between Frames (CBF) mod, as he did in the first stream. In that stream, he got another 47%.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IA_UBLKooaA&t=1052s</ref> On 28 May, Zoink took a break from streaming until 4 June, as he went outside his town.

Zoink returned to streaming and, on 7 June, set a new world record of 51%, becoming the first person to reach the spider part.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hld_6Bmzu8M</ref>
