We usually talk about code here. ⚙️🐛 But this time, got any questions about how what we build gets explained to everyone else? Stefan, who leads CKBA's Content & Communications team, is doing an AMA. Got questions for him? Drop them below ↓ teddit.net/r/NervosNetwork/c…

The monthly #CKB development log is out: This cycle focused on reducing failure cases across the node and light client, while several larger architecture changes continue to be reviewed. CKB-VM v0.24.15 was released this month, with follow-up fixes to runtime behavior. The light client also added stricter checks for headers, proofs, and peer checkpoints, so invalid or inconsistent data can be rejected earlier. On the node side, the team fixed issues around indexing rollback, networking edge cases, and dependency security. More protections are also being reviewed for transaction queues, sync responses, block relay, and request limits. Some longer-term work is still in progress: the tx-pool redesign, a new RocksDB layout, and initial QUIC integration are all under review rather than released. DAO treasury and voting work also remains at the research and PoC stage. There are also new docs for developers working with ckb-std and Rust script templates.

#CKB monthly development log (August) This cycle brought CKB v0.209.0, Tentacle 0.7.7, and a range of reliability and security improvements across the node, networking stack, and light-client. - CKB v0.209.0 shipped with tx-pool, Tor, and memory-growth fixes - Tentacle 0.7.7 fixed a QUIC compatibility issue - Light-client verification got stricter around proofs and downloaded block data - Improvements to ckb-cli and contract development tooling - Advanced a batch tally settlement solution (currently in design/PoC) for DAO Treasury & Voting We also closed the previous tx-pool pipeline prototype and the next tx-pool design is moving toward an invariant-driven validate → plan → apply → effects model.

#CKB monthly development log (July) This development cycle focused on release stabilization, security hardening, and infrastructure improvements. Highlights include: - CKB v0.208.0 and Tentacle 0.7.6 releases - Improved RPC and mining operator behavior - Continued CKB-VM cleanup, plus light client bounds and panic-path hardening - Advanced CKB DAO treasury and voting research into executable PoC work - Three new CKB-VM write-ups on macro-ops fusion, B extension, and CFI concepts We're also keeping key architecture items--tx-pool pipeline, Guix release flow, QUIC integration--moving through review.

CKB monthly development log (June) It's one of those months where you fix a bug, review a PR, merge a patch, and somehow come back to find the queue even longer than when you left... 🫣 Highlights include: - CKB v0.207.0 release, security hardening across CKB, the light client, and the network - Major progress on QUIC transport - Continued DAO treasury and voting research - A series of three educational write-ups on CKB-VM - Security fixes reported through the bug bounty program--Shoutout to those who helped us find issues and make CKB stronger! 🙌 We also continued strengthening our security workflow. As AI-assisted security tools become more capable, the bar for code security keeps rising. We're integrating more of these tools into our development process to catch issues earlier. But anyway, we're excited to finally share this month's dev log: github.com/nervosnetwork/ckb…

Introducing: Build on CKB! With the rapid growth of our CKBuilders programme, we've been devising new offerings to accommodate developers who are new to CKB and interested in learning. We now have the Build on CKB telegram channel for new developers to participate in weekly competitions to win prizes, receive devrel support, participate in peer learning, and get pre-hackathon preparation and support! We recently completed our first Build on CKB campaign, with 8 new developers all receiving CKB prizes! If you missed out, don't worry! We have a new campaign live now. Check it out on CKBoost: ckboost.netlify.app/campaign…

Straight from @Coinbase’s April paper on quantum computing and blockchains. 👇 “Crypto-agility is a highly recommended practice in general [...] even more so in the context of PQC.” Now guess which chains were designed to switch cryptographic algorithms without disrupting operations🧠 Hint: there’s only one.

AMA time again! This time with Retric from the DevRel team 🛠️ Retric has been part of Nervos' journey since the early days of CKB. Lately he's been building fun experiments on Fiber, such as Fiber Audio Player (a self-hosted podcast with streaming micropayments) and Fiber L402 (L402 paywall demo). Got any questions about CKB, Fiber, developer tooling, or what it's really like building these? Drop your questions on Reddit! teddit.net/r/NervosNetwork/c… and we'll see you on May 12th 👋 @FiberDevs #ckb #nervosnetwork #fibernetwork
