- Today, we are announcing "Kevlar" (github.com/shresthagrawalโฆ), a tool that makes Metamask, or any RPC-based wallet, completely trustless! Kevlar first runs a light client to quickly sync with the beacon chain and then starts a local RPC proxy that you can add to your wallet
- I am excited to announce that we are coming out of stealth with our seed round. Web3 can be as fast and simple as a Google search; pod is making this a reality! pod is a novel L1 primitive that brings optimal latency to Web3 systems, enabling devs to build real products. 1/6We are thrilled to announce we raised $10 million in seed round funding! Huge thanks to our backers @a16zcrypto CSX, @1kxnetwork @theBBFund @StanfordSBA and @ProtagonistXYZ 1/2
- To everyone who is trying to figure out why their wallets were filtered for PSP airdrop, here is a thread summarising the eligibility criteria:
- What if @paradigm just started this <21years fellowship just to help @transmissions11 find reasonable friends XD
- WTF, base sepolia feels really fast! can barely notice any difference btw base and megaeth confirmation times. is the native op stack already so fast or base is doing additional magic with their sequencers!? cc: @jessepollak @binji_x

kinda evil genius that megaeth is forcing the world to compare them against monad. should I add @poddotnetwork to the arena as well? the game codebase doesn't seem to be open-souce. @yangl1996 can you share the contracts? - @paraswap recently open-sourced DexLib github.com/paraswap/parasโฆ: a library used by the ParaSwapโs backend to connect with decentralised exchanges (DEX) using a standard interface. Now anyone can add a new DEX integration to ParaSwap by simply creating pull requests on repository
- The end of blockchains is closer than you think. Blockchains were a good start, but Web3 needs to become asynchronous ASAP if we want to build real products that work at Internet scale.This is one of the most inspiring papers I have read recently: arxiv.org/abs/2501.14931. To put it bluntly, it can lead to the end of blockchains as we know them today. It shows how we can still achieve all the benefits of blockchains, but dropping the tyranny of sequentiality
- Tried @GearboxProtocol today! Its just amazing. Composable Leverage opens up the possibility to do so many things
- Replying to @0xcubiz and @paraswapAll the data is open source ser github.com/paraswap/parasโฆ. You can check where you got filtered. We tried our best to minimize the airdrop farming
- Enshrining Rollup-Boost with censorship-resistant auctions on pod. L2s suffer from spamming by MEV bots, making them slower and expensive for users. Rollup-Boost with pod solves this problem using 200ms censorship-resistant priority auctions. Here's how it works๐ 1/5
- Bitcoin and Ethereum have lied to us for over a decade: We do not need consensus to solve the double spending problem. By removing consensus, our transactions can finalize as fast as a Google search. 1/5Did you know that consensus is not needed to solve the double-spending problem? pod.network/blog/wait-why-โฆ
- new blog alert! TL;DR pod-core provides fast finality, censorship resistance, and accountable safety all at once, and it can be broken into three simple ingredients: 1. broadcasting: client writes a transaction by sending it to all validators. 2. chaining: validator votes are
- Replying to @veerbiadoodling on a paper to visualize a problem is the best feeling
