We believe Ethereum is the best network to support the high-value, trustless applications needed in the world—the inevitable core engine of the decentralized digital economy. In our new blog post, we explain why this is where we've decided to build: blog.alignedlayer.com/why-et…

Ethereum needs users, and humanity has one of its fundamental technologies in Ethereum for an equitable, distributed, and censorship-resistant future. We are here to help bridge that gap building agreements with governments and institutions in emerging countries. Why? Because most of the systems we rely on were never built for the digital world we live in. Governments still rely on paper or disconnected systems. Institutions still hold our data. People still lose time — and opportunity — trying to prove who they are. At Sovra, we believe identity is the root layer of trust. And trust is the root layer of everything. We’re building applications for real-world users and the necessary critical infrastructure to help the world move from slow, analog, or semi-digital processes to seamless, verifiable credentials that people truly own—across public services, private institutions, and even peer-to-peer. This isn’t about crypto. This is about fixing systems that are already broken — and giving people a new foundation to stand on. Sovra is already live and in use. We’re supporting governments in Nuevo León, 5.8m inhabitants (Mexico), Río Negro, 0.8m inhabitants, and Salta, 1.45m inhabitants (Argentina) — enabling them to issue secure, verifiable credentials that improve how they serve citizens. Millions of users will be onboarded in the upcoming months. This is powered by @oscitylatam, now a Sovra company — recognized by the OECD as one of the most advanced digital government platforms in the world for its work with Nuevo Leon's government. With OSCity and QuarkID, an open-source Digital Public Good protocol, gobeing discussedvernments can issue digital IDs,drivers licenses, and certificates through a seamless, user-controlled experience. But we’re not stopping with identity. Sovra is expanding to become a trust layer for financial access — enabling: - Personal finance services built on identity - Remittances and cross-border movement of value -Lending based on verifiable data - Reputation-backed credit without traditional asset collateralization models - Real estate, Cars and companies registries This is the next phase of our roadmap — and it’s already in motion. We’re also growing beyond Latin America. Several government and institutional partnerships are already being discussed across Africa and the Middle East, where the need for efficient, trusted infrastructure is just as urgent. Our goal is simple: To empower people with tools that work — whether interacting with a government, applying for a loan, or accessing services requiring trust. This work requires the best technology — and the right partners. That’s why we’ve teamed up with @class_lambda, one of the most respected technical teams in the world. Together, we’re evolving Sovra into a sovereign, zero-knowledge-native platform rooted in Ethereum — leveraging the Ethrex execution client, @alignedlayer, @SuccinctLabs SP1, and @RiscZero zkVM prover. We also believe that Based Rollups, courageously pushed by @drakefjustin, are the future of interoperability and scalability, and we will become one of them. But more than the tech, we share a vision: Decentralized, efficient, user-oriented apps that prioritize people over protocols. We’re proud of this partnership. And even prouder of what it enables. We want to thank @ethereumfndn and @VitalikButerin for their continuous support, advice, and encouragement along the long journey that brought us up to this point and allowed us to project an ambitious and bright future. I would also like to give a special thank you to @bankless for always giving me the chance to share ideas and help us divulge our vision. We admire the work of projects like @etherealize_io. Our vision is strongly aligned: building public apps and critical infrastructure that empowers people and institutions. I should spend pages thanking the talented professionals and amazing companies that help us transform ideas into reality. Please take this as recognition for all of you! Our thesis is simple. - People need a reusable, self-owned identity. - Blockchain is a means to an end — not the end itself. - If users have to know it’s Web3, the solution has already failed. What matters is solving real problems, at a real scale, for real people. Sovra is doing just that. Identity is just the beginning. We’re building the foundation for digital trust, financial access, and institutional transformation. A new reality is being shaped. And we’re shaping it together.

Argentina's Ethereum community is full of amazing builders, who have already contributed some of the most important software in the Ethereum ecosystem. The energy and determination to build on Argentina's current momentum and use crypto and other new technologies to build a prosperous 21st century society is real. The recent news should be taken not as a reason to give up, but rather as an example of why education is so important. I continue to be very optimistic about Argentina and Latam's contributions and role in the space.

Message from the Aligned Foundation ----------------------------------------- The Aligned Genesis Drop Registration In total the Aligned Foundation is open to give a tsunami of $ALIGN tokens to almost a 1M addresses. Today we selected 891,322 addresses that held tokens from different ecosystem at their all-time lows 📉.

The Alignment begins. Today we start by thanking the core engineers, developers and researchers of Ethereum and Zero Knowledge Proofs. If this is you, check your eligibility for a future claim. Take the first step towards decentralization and read more below:

Hoy metí día de Autodromo. A la mañana con el TC con los amigos @BetoGabeto @cokidelapipol @klaus993 y @nicodoxia Vimos los TC Nueva Generación en vivo. A mi me gustaron, salvo el Dodge (numero 9, Trucco) que es feo feo...pero gano!

Weekly Update: Lambda Consensus and Execution Clients Consensus Client - Telegram: t.me/lambdaconsensus - GitHub: github.com/lambdaclass/lambd… #### Performance - Improved block processing time from 4 minutes to 20 seconds by eliminating repeated checkpoint state requests. Potential further simplification by avoiding requests entirely. - Integrated a more efficient shuffling algorithm for attestation batch processing, reducing time from 20 seconds to 10-11 seconds. Results to be published after debugging and measuring. #### Metrics - Simplified BEAM metrics using PromEx. - Added live metrics for fork choice section times. - Added live metrics for all libp2p handlers, including incoming requests and gossip messages. #### Bug Fixes - Fixed an issue with retrieving a state by slot, which affected only benchmarks. - Resolved duplication of attestations received multiple times by validators, which caused invalid signatures when proposing blocks. - Ensured nodes check for existing blocks even if checkpoint sync is not set. #### Upcoming Work - Simplifying GenServer: removing the "clock" GenServer and consolidating validator logic into the main GenServer. - Debugging shuffling to ensure valid committees for the entire epoch. Optimizing performance by transitioning from reduces to maps and parallelizing processes. - Implementing the KeyManager API for integration with EthDocker. Execution Client Telegram: t.me/rust_ethereum GitHub: github.com/lambdaclass/ether… #### Current Focus Our goal is to develop an RPC node capable of validating blocks from consensus on a Cancun localnet with no reorgs. #### Achievements - Parsing and validating the genesis state. - Executing legacy, EIP-1559, and EIP-2930 transactions within a block. - Storing state updates to accounts. - Implemented the following RPC endpoints: - `eth_getBlockByNumber` - `eth_getBlockByHash` - `eth_getBlockTransactionCountByNumber` - `eth_getTransactionByBlockNumberAndIndex` - `eth_getTransactionByBlockHashAndIndex` - `eth_getBalance` - `eth_getCode` - `eth_getBlockReceipts` - `eth_getStorageAt` - `eth_getTransactionByHash` - `eth_getTransactionReceipt` #### Next Steps - Persisting and updating the Patricia Merkle Trie to validate each block state root. - Adding support for EIP-4844 transactions. - Processing withdrawals (EIP-4895) and updating the beacon root (EIP-4788). - Implementing the following RPC endpoints: - `eth_getLogs` - `eth_call` - `eth_estimateGas` - `eth_createAccessList` - `eth_blockNumber`

I am really happy to share that one of our portfolio companies successfully tested its first engine for satellites with its own produced propellant! These engine will reduce drastically reduce costs in different situations. We will be working closely with them. Accelerate 🫡.

hmmmm …is it normal for @SECGov to make announcements on Twitter but not on their website?

We got a new office!

After 3 months of hard work we have reached a big milestone in our Lambda Ethereum Consensus client. All the @ethereum node tests are already passing. We can now receive and validate blocks. We're a few weeks aways of being able to propose blocks! Thanks to the @ethereum for all the support and to our team for working very hard to reach this milestone. github.com/lambdaclass/lambd…
