UPDATE: this week’s call is moving to next Thursday, Oct 29, same time (2pm ET). Agenda: hackmd.io/1DFauFMWTZG37-U7CX…

Glad we got to be part of it. 🌞

We’ve come a long way since Tour de Sol 🌞🏔️

And @ChainflowSol was there, just like we were for the original genesis block on March 16, 2020 While a lot has changed since then, we're Still here Still contributing Still independent 🌞

Alpenglow goes live TODAY. Tomorrow is the first validator community call after it. On the agenda: → Updates from @anza_xyz, Firedancer, @jito, @doublezero → SIMD-605: enshrining local fee markets → Community Awards at Block Zero How to join 👇 hackmd.io/@KFEZk8oMTz6vBlwAD…

We’ll be at @LuganoPlanB this Friday, and @nicostery is there for us. If you’re building on Bitcoin, or curious about our work as a Strata bridge operator, say hello or DM Nico to set up a time.

Our new research moves us closer to letting anyone help secure BTC deposited on Alpen. We survey permissionless challenging on Bitcoin & introduce polynomial soldering: a more scalable, efficient component for challenging the validity of proofs. HackMD: hackmd.io/@alpen/Skc1C7Rizg

P.S. If you stake with us, you don’t need to do anything. Your stake and rewards carry over as normal. Alpenglow activates at the start of epoch 1064 this Wednesday 🌞

Sui cut non-refundable storage fees by 99% this week. Aftermath says quoting now costs 60-70% less in gas. For an onchain order book, that’s the cost of market makers placing and cancelling orders all day. Subscribe to our @SuiNetwork TL;DR on Substack👇 suitldr.substack.com/p/the-w…

chainSOL returns 100% of $SOL commission and MEV to the pool. This is not a marketing claim, it's actually verifiable on-chain. 51 epochs of returns, every one confirmed. Stake with a validator that gives it all back. 🌞 chainsol.chainflow.io

If the only place you learn about your validator is a Discord thread, you’ll miss it. This week’s Solana Validator Talks 👇

Most institutional privacy pitches mean leaving the public chain. @Monad's Private Settlement goes the other way: encrypted domains with their own validators and rules, settling on L1 and composing with public liquidity. That's the right shape. Our breakdown in this week's Monad Pulse on Substack 👇 themonadpulse.substack.com/p…

The most reliable infrastructure is often the most boring one. Consistent uptime beats flashy features every time. 🌞

High-signal gathering for people working closest to blockchain infrastructure. Expect discussions on the future of validator networks + technical sessions & open community-led dialogues. Lock in → dub.sh/blockzero

A week after AlphaFi, @SuiNetwork's security stack got a lot more visible: → 10+ protocols formally verified → 3,023 phishing threats blocked → Sui-native compliance tracing from @scorechain → New #validator-level tooling for stolen funds Details on Substack👇 suitldr.substack.com/p/the-w…
