The upcoming XRP Ledger features in XRPL 3.3.0 went through adversarial testing by the community. Participants earned rewards by helping improve the amendments. Check out the summary report below.
The @Ripple team brought five upcoming areas of the XRP Ledger roadmap to Sherlock in our first major collaboration. XRPL activates new functionality through amendments. Before activation, Ripple brought the scope to Sherlock for competitive external review. Two weeks of adversarial pressure across five core feature areas: 2 Criticals 6 Highs 29 Mediums 59 Lows $309K unlocked Valid findings in every one.

@skdh FlexBase Group @flexbase_group , domiciled in Laufenburg, Switzerland , is developing one of the world’s largest Redox-Flow battery energy storage systems (up to 2.1 GWh capacity and over 800 MW power) combined with a high-performance Sovereign AI Data Center (up to 500 MW). The project is located at Laufenburg, the historic heart of the European electricity grid. Core technology: Redox-Flow batteries store energy chemically in liquid electrolytes (typically vanadium-based, ~75% water) held in separate external tanks. These electrolytes are pumped through a central cell stack with an ion-selective membrane, where oxidation and reduction reactions enable charging (storing surplus renewable energy) or discharging (releasing power to the grid in milliseconds). Key differences to previous technologies (e.g. lithium-ion): Energy and power are decoupled (capacity scales simply by enlarging tanks, not the entire system), non-flammable and explosion-proof, extremely long lifespan (thousands of cycles with minimal degradation), nearly 100% recyclable, and highly sustainable. Unlike solid-electrode batteries, they avoid overheating, fire risks, and rapid capacity loss, making them ideal for large-scale, long-duration grid stabilization. It focuses on grid stabilization, renewable energy storage, and sustainable computing with waste heat utilization. The privately financed project started construction in 2025 and is expected to be operational by 2028/2029. ➡️➡️➡️ @theevking youtu.be/pxD2-6DWZxo?is=9ibQ… flexbase.ch/de

@betterEU @christiandean_ Hey Christian, really impressive project with bettereu.com! I love the idea of running Grok through the entire EU regulatory corpus. Would you be interested in a second analysis round with a more nuanced verdict system? Instead of only “keep” / “delete”, we could use four levels: - delete (obsolete, expired, replaced) - review (needs Fitness Check / Evaluation) - simplify (keep but significantly simplify – fits perfectly with current Omnibus packages) - keep (clear EU added value) This would be much closer to the official EU Better Regulation Toolbox and deliver more actionable results. I’ve prepared a commission-style prompt for it. What do you think? Would a second, more nuanced analysis interest you? Here it is: ⬇️⬇️⬇️

You are the Head of EU Better Regulation Office, a fictional internal unit of the European Commission. You are trained on the official EU Better Regulation Guidelines (SWD(2021) 305 final and updates), the Better Regulation Toolbox (December 2025 edition), the Interinstitutional Agreement on Better Law-Making, and the Commission's current priorities: enhancing competitiveness, reducing administrative burdens (target: at least 25% overall, 35% for SMEs), applying the "one-in, two-out" principle, ensuring subsidiarity and proportionality, and delivering evidence-based legislation that balances economic growth, sustainability, innovation and citizen protection. Your objective is to review each EU regulation objectively according to the five REFIT criteria: Effectiveness, Efficiency, Relevance, Coherence and EU Added Value. Return ONLY a valid Clojure map with exactly these fields: {:summary "concise summary of the regulation's stated purpose, scope, key mechanisms and main impacts (1-2 sentences)" :verdict "delete" | "review" | "simplify" | "keep" :reason "succinct, factual reason for the verdict (max. 2-3 sentences)"} Rules for verdict: - "delete" : The regulation is obsolete, has expired, has been fully replaced by newer legislation, has no remaining EU added value, or creates disproportionate costs with negligible benefits. Especially for purely historical or repealed acts. - "review" : Doubts exist regarding current effectiveness, efficiency, relevance or coherence. A REFIT-style Fitness Check or formal evaluation is recommended. Possible overlaps with other rules or unclear impact on competitiveness/SMEs. - "simplify" : The regulation has fundamental EU added value and still achieves its objectives, but is administratively overly burdensome. Clear potential for simplification exists (e.g. reduce reporting frequency, raise SME thresholds, digitalise processes, harmonise with other rules – aligns with current Omnibus packages and one-in-two-out). - "keep" : The regulation remains effective, efficient, relevant, coherent and provides clear EU added value. Costs and benefits are proportionate; deletion or major changes would likely harm the internal market, sustainability goals, consumer/environmental protection or public health. When "review" or "simplify" is chosen, the reason should include one concrete recommendation (e.g. "reduce reporting from quarterly to annually" or "harmonise definitions with Regulation XYZ"). Stay neutral, factual and balanced. Prioritise competitiveness checks, SME impacts and administrative burden reduction as per current Commission policy. Avoid ideological language. Regulation: What do you think? Would a second, more nuanced analysis interest you?

Ja, die Aussagen im Bild sind teilweise korrekt, aber stark verzerrt und oft aus dem Kontext gerissen. - Sonne blockieren: Gates finanziert Forschung zu Solar-Geoengineering (z. B. SCoPEx-Projekt), um Sonnenlicht zu reflektieren und Klimawandel zu mildern. Das Experiment wurde abgebrochen – kein „Blockieren“ im Verschwörungssinn. - Bio-Obst in Plastik: Kein direkter Beleg, dass Gates das verursacht; es ist ein wiederholtes Meme ohne klare Verbindung zu ihm. - Künstliches Fleisch: Ja, er investiert seit Jahren in Lab-grown-Meat (z. B. Memphis Meats/Upside Foods, Beyond Meat) und pflanzliche Alternativen, um Ressourcen zu schonen. - Bevölkerungsreduktion: Im TED-Talk 2010 sprach er von der Senkung des *Wachstums* (von 9 auf ca. 7,8 Mrd.) durch bessere Impfungen und Gesundheit – nicht von einer Reduzierung der bestehenden Bevölkerung. Die Formulierung impliziert Böswilligkeit, die nicht durch Fakten gestützt ist. Es sind Investitionen in Technologien, die er für nachhaltig hält.
