Get a wallet's balance at any point in time The new balance-at endpoint returns a wallet's exact SOL or SPL token balance at a given date or slot How much USDC did a wallet hold at 19:20 on Jan 10, 2025? Now it's a single call Ideal for PnL, charts, snapshots, and cost basis

Lana.ai is a great addition for everyone wanting to dive deeper into things they find on @Orb_Markets Pretty sure @mert's tweet got cut off at the start, "All the other " is missing here 🤔
block explorers will be dead by EOY before: click on static spreadsheet tables endlessly now: talk to the chain in english. ask specifically for what you want. generate visuals live. we are calling it @LanaAI, invite only as we iterate only on Solana; invite codes below

Big IBRL week We deployed archival v2.1 to our US clusters Here are the results (p95 latency): - getTransaction: 7ms -> 1ms - getTransactionsforAddress: 350ms -> 30ms (!!) - getBlock: 50ms -> 35ms What changed? 1. Re-worked the transaction storage layer from the ground up 2. Implemented our own rpc protocol (over tcp) for storage <-> proxy communication EU and APAC clusters will deploy next week. Enjoy! Disclaimer: Latencies are measured from within our network. To observe similar numbers, call our new Gatekeeper edge network from EWR or NY.

People really need to stay out of my DMs. Leave me alone and get a job. This is getting annoying.

Back in 2017, when I was an EVM dev still, the first thing I learned from @AndreCronjeTech was: "Always test in prod!" Well... Worth it!

We received backlash for the activated circuit breaker mechanism in our protocol during yesterday’s events. However, as someone who has personally witnessed the Terra crash, the FTX collapse, and the Covid market meltdown, it has always been my deep conviction to prioritize the security of user funds over the pursuit of protocol revenue. The circuit breaker was triggered by a steep, market-wide decline across all major assets, temporarily pausing protocol activity for about an hour and a half. During this time, the market was free-falling but later began to stabilize in a new price range. During this period, some users, particularly short sellers, expressed frustration that they couldn’t close their perpetual positions at peak profit. However, thanks to this anti–price manipulation safeguard, we prevented approximately $6 million in user deposits from being liquidated. I understand that not every protocol operates under the same ethos, and that some might prefer a “profit-first” approach. But I firmly believe that protecting user funds in moments of extreme volatility is more important than enabling opportunistic gains during a market crash. Yes, we lost users because of this decision. But in a cross-collateralized environment like @mars_protocol, even a single instance of price manipulation can cause catastrophic losses. That’s why I continue to stand by the decision to integrate and maintain the circuit breaker since the adoption of our @PythNetwork oracle. Going forward, we’ll improve transparency by adding a clear UI indicator whenever the circuit breaker is active. Still, I am not in favor of removing this protection merely to allow individual profits at the expense of broader market stability and user safety.
🛰️ Circuit Breaker Activated The entire Mars Protocol, including Perps, Red Bank, and Vaults, is temporarily halted due to extreme market volatility (>±15% price move within 1h). This means: • No new trades, borrows, or withdrawals can be made • No liquidations occur • Funding rates are paused • Protocol resumes automatically once volatility normalizes This mechanism protects users and the protocol from price manipulation and cascading failures during abnormal market conditions.

Good morning and happy Bitcoin ATH! What began as an example vault on @mars_protocol has turned out pretty profitable. But with maxBTC yield bearing strategies incoming, I want to position myself in @amberfi_io. That‘s why I‘d like everyone who deposited into my vault kindly to withdraw their funds. I converted all the BTC in it to USDC so you should be able to withdraw without an issue. If you like the experience of passive asset management, then I can recommend @fluffy_trex Delta Newtral vault. He‘s doing a fantastic job increasing the value of his depositors! Please check your deposits and withdraw them as soon as possible: app.marsprotocol.io/vaults/n…

And here it is. Be cautious while liquidity is building up, as rates will be volatile. However, we hope you enjoy the true power of stable yields, thanks to leverage looping! Thanks to all members of @neutron_org and @mars_protocol who helped make this app come to life!

Since taking over the Protocol lead on @mars_protocol I realized how super greatful I am for community members like @stablepunk Ramping up BD and incentivizing yapping is one thing, but having genuine users and dedicated ones is what I really believe in!
MARS TOKENOMICS 🔴 A new tab has been spotted on @mars_protocol 👀 🔗 stats.marsprotocol.io/tokeno… Did you know that 54.3% of the $MARS token supply has already been burned? 🔥 1⃣ Deflationary Burn Mechanisms Multiple burn mechanisms continuously reduce $MARS supply, creating lasting deflationary pressure and supporting long-term token value. 2⃣ Revenue-Driven Deflation As Mars Protocol grows, its buyback and burn program ensures more MARS tokens are permanently removed from circulation, directly linking protocol success to token scarcity.
