Nakaflow now puts @Solana's Nakamoto Coefficient at 6. Not because the network changed, but because we changed how we count. Most trackers report ~18 by counting validators. Grouping them by the operator actually running them, building on @andreivacariu_'s research, gives 6 operators holding more than a third of stake. More NC data for proof-of-stake blockchains πŸ‘‰ nakaflow.io

Living on the edge isn't easy, yet we do it anyway, because pushing limits is necessary to continue improving Solana's performance and resilience. And our independence allows us to do it. Because if we don't, who will? And if nobody does, progress stops.
In epoch 1033, the SFDP bot hit a bug and unstaked Foundation stake from every validator running full Firedancer, including ours. That's the third issue we've run into since moving over. It's the cost of being early, and we'd make the same call again.

Introducing Marinade Explore. A new way to look at Solana network performance: by operator, by data center provider, by client, by incident history, and by what validators keep from your rewards.

Introducing Marinade Explore: What matters more than validator count

A strong Solana network takes more than a lot of validators. It matters who runs them, where they run, what software they run, how they behave over time, what they keep from your rewards, and whether

Our offline signer no longer needs durable nonce accounts. Replay protection is now a hashchain: each execute advances an on-chain seed via SHA-256. The cold wallet signs a 32-byte digest, never a full transaction. Unaudited soft launch on our Github πŸ‘‡ github.com/ChainflowSOL/offl…

A delegation framework is a filter, not a leaderboard. Most stakers sort by yield and stop. However, the higher-leverage questions are elsewhere. Does this operator run their own hardware, or resell someone else's? What happens to their commission when rewards compress? Would the network be more or less concentrated with your stake there? The last one is the only question a leaderboard cannot answer. 🌞
