Not enough pressure - you are pinch flatting or burping at 25 on the rear at 90kg

The sealant doesn't need time to cure. But the bead does become less likely to burp once any lube/sealant on the bead has dried.
Being as you've damaged a rim and burped flat a few times, 25psi must be too low pressure for your tyre/rim/weight. That's the pressure I run my 29er with 2.1" tyres.

tubeless woes.
went tubeless for this years CX calendar which so far has resulted in 3 DNF from 5 races with rear tyre flats. The tyre in question is a Maxxis Mud Wrestler which for 2 races was paired with a new cheap Chinese rim (prime from chainreaction) After the second failure i noticed the rim was damaged so bought a kinlin rim from cycleclinic and the sealant Malcolm recommends. Im 89kg and inflated the tyre to 25 psi, it went flat after 40 minutes of racing.
My first question is does sealant need time to cure, it was only mounted yesterday with no test ride and ad hoc spinning during the day
