Its only IBRL if it comes from the Cabal region of @solana

1/ This quickly moved from cool demo to functional AI on the blockchain. The first LLM on the blockchain took hours to for a simple prompt. Now the front page of NPR news processed in 76 seconds for under $0.01 in gas fees. Now live on @fogo mainnet.

Interesting that London BP is slower to sell out both booths & tickets this year This time last year all BP booths were insta sold out & pretty sure tickets sold out well before the event Flux & Rugcheck will be attendance - who else is going? Need to get some pub trips going

Alpenglow is live on testnet ⛰️🎉

The Alpenglow feature gate is active on testnet. The 5,000 slot countdown is running, ~17 minutes to the migration boundary. At the boundary: validators confirm the final TowerBFT block at 82% of stake, then Votor takes over on testnet. Alpenglow testnet genesis block incoming.

Bitcoin does not need permission. Unfortunately, in the UK, buying it increasingly does. In 2022, Rishi Sunak said he wanted the UK to become a “global cryptoasset technology hub”. Since then, buying Bitcoin has become wrapped in layer after layer of friction. - 24 hour cooling-off period - Personalised risk warnings - Investor categorisation - Appropriateness assessments - Financial-promotion restrictions - Rising compliance costs for UK facing businesses The rules do not stop at the FCA. Banks now sit on top of them and decide whether a legal purchase goes through. - Chase blocks crypto payments - Santander limits them to £1,000 per transaction and £3,000 per 30 days - NatWest limits them to £1,000 per day and £5,000 per 30 days - HSBC limits them to £2,500 per transaction and £10,000 per 30 days - Barclays limits transfers and blocks crypto purchases on Barclaycard You can pass the test, wait out the cooling-off period, use a compliant exchange and try to make a completely legal purchase with your own money, only to find your bank still decides how much Bitcoin you can buy, or whether you can buy it at all. Consultations may technically be open to everyone, but meaningful participation takes time, lawyers, policy teams and money. The UK says it wants to be a global digital-assets hub while simultaneously building more friction between citizens and permissionless money. The irony is hard to miss. The toughest parts of the UK crypto promotion regime landed across late 2023 and early 2024, just before Bitcoin went on to more than double during 2024. Bitcoin does not need permission, protection or representation, but people in the UK do need a voice when bad rules are being written around it. You should not need permission from a broken financial system to step outside a broken monetary system. Thanks for the article @BitcoinEventsHQ, the support is really appreciated.

Urgent security advisory for iOS users! Install the latest iOS update immediately. Security researchers report that financially motivated attackers are now using a complete, in-the-wild exploit chain that can quietly steal cryptocurrency private keys and mnemonic seed phrases from iPhones. The reported attack begins when a target is socially engineered into opening a malicious page in Safari. That page is said to abuse a memory-corruption flaw in WebKit / JavaScriptCore to gain arbitrary read/write access from JavaScript, then bypass Pointer Authentication Codes (PAC) to run native code, break out of the WebContent sandbox, and escalate to kernel/root privileges. With that access, attackers can pull data from the device Keychain and from local crypto wallet apps. The claimed impact range is iOS 13 through iOS 26.5; that range has not been independently confirmed in full. Until more is known, treat any unpatched device as potentially exposed and update as soon as a newer build is available. Also avoid untrusted links in Safari, especially if you keep wallet keys or seed phrases on the phone.

Going to address this head on. We did not just audit the refactor diff from Drift to Velocity. We audited the *entire* codebase. This couldn't be further from a rush job. If we wanted to rush it, we could have just audited the diff, called the old code fine, and launched months ago. We wanted to err on the side of safety, which meant re-auditing the full codebase. This is expensive, and takes a long time. Drift is one of the largest Solana programs in existence with tens of thousands of lines of code. But it was the right thing to do, because safety is our priority. Yes, it's a lot of findings. But relative to the amount of code, it makes sense. Most findings were in pre-refactor code, and most of them would not result in LoF in any real situation. It was a herculean effort to (1) review this massive monolith, thanks auditors! (2) fix every issue no matter how small. That is why the launch has been pushed back so far.

One word - Rushed. 154 audit findings is crazy high & even after fixes does not guarantee no side effects from the changes made.

Probs a higher chance of getting more funds back from this than the current proposal Currently no one taking accountability drift side & hiding behind the poor dev having to face the brunt of the criticism All that money siphoned out by team & “partners” could be clawed back

1/ This was really cool. For the first time, an LLM ran entirely on the blockchain. Weights, activations, attention, tokens all loaded and calculated onchain in a general purpose ledger. Every step in the process was a standard SVM transaction.

Bruh in WOTLK you wouldn’t even get an interview with the top guilds without running a Scimitar/G600/Naga Keyboard warriors in shambles

Solana Explorer shows # of transactions by version in each block.

Every damn cycle. Last time it was PopCat

After co-inventing ChatGPT, I kept asking myself: why have superhuman chat models not led to AGI? I’ve spent the last 2 years in stealth building a new way to train models (RLCD), and a new type of frontier AI model that we are releasing today: Jev • 20-200x faster • 40-400x cheaper (w/ output tokens free) • Frontier composable intelligence optimized for decisions AFAICT the shortest path to AI-based economic revolution

Finally a dev focused wallet! After chewing glass this long its about time the devs get a treat!

Not surprising that @Phantom dropped the ball on v1. Just use @solflare - They actually care about the Sol ecosystem rather than being a maxx extractor
