We do many chain related things at @avax but it all comes back to the C-Chain - the spine of the ecosystem And today that chain accelerates. It’s too fast, too furious! These adjustments come from feedback. From the needs and requests of builders both technical and, well… ‘business’ While today marks a launch (🚀) I’m actually more excited for what’s to come - what this will unlock Stay tuned as the Avalanche team stays curious and hungry!
Helicon is live. - Continuous Execution for a faster C-Chain - Auto-renewing staking - 48-hour minimum staking periods - Stronger validator requirements - A new reward curve designed to reduce AVAX issuance Helicon brings more performance, better capital efficiency, and stronger economics to Avalanche. Helicon is one of our biggest upgrades yet, and lays the groundwork for larger upgrades to come.

There is part of me - my old DP hat - that was elated at the initial release of this amazing piece of craftwork And that same part reacts with wild, negative aggression to the simulated slop that followed. Are we reducing art to meme - quality to slop? I haven’t been able to put words to this as I also see my creative peers nerfing themselves by refusing AI and that also concerns me But I feel it. I just don’t know what it is
Someone came up with this concept and wrote it. A choreographer spent hours and hours teaching it to these incredible dancers. Someone scouted the location. A director and DP came up with the aesthetic and storyboard. It was framed and lit perfectly. You didn’t create shit!

The shift was @__arielle__ and her amazing team Jk, but not jk. One team, one dream. This Summit reflected the hustle of many and while I wasn’t able to attend I gotta say… It looked amazing from afar
avalanche summit is a wrap, and something shifted this year. we grew up. over 1,500 people came across both days. the caliber of people in that room was the highest we’ve ever brought together. the conversations, the people on stage, the deals starting over coffee. but what i keep hearing isn’t about any single panel or speaker. it’s that avalanche showed up differently. for years we’ve said we’re the blockchain for institutions and enterprises. this was the first time it felt like every part of the experience matched that ambition. the room, the programming, the production, the people. we looked and operated like the company we’ve been saying we are. and the reach matched the moment. more than 5 million impressions across two days. kevin o’leary everywhere. avalanche everywhere. none of that happened by accident. it happened because this team executed at a level i rarely see. (tagging those that have X on my team) programming and content that made some of the best people in the industry want to be on our stage: @meghangardler @Tess_Lucia and megan morgan an event where every detail felt intentional: anna, shelby & @vanyapestana social that took what was happening in the room and carried it to millions more: @vohvohh @BuryLikeFury press & media that put avalanche everywhere: @0xcoolgirl and a brand & design system that finally reflects who avalanche is today: grown up, built for serious business, but still unmistakably avalanche: @kyledineen @Jones___Lab @0xBryan thank you for the late nights, the tiny details no one will ever notice, and the standard you refused to lower. i am so incredibly proud and forever grateful. i love my team. lastly, thank you to the those that showed up from the community to everyone who bought tickets. this event would not have been what it was without you all. we turned a corner this week. and we’re just getting started 🔺

Morgan is correct here Private credit onchain unlocks manifold savings possibilities It’s not the stuff of memecoin gains, but it’s where you put those gains to compound with low risk Yin and Yang
Everyone's tokenizing treasuries and equities, but @AVAX VP of BD @MorganKrupetsky is looking somewhere messier. Private credit, she says, is a space hardly anyone is focused on. The goal is to bring the whole process, origination, securitization and distribution, onchain. Because private credit is so opaque and unstandardized today, she argues, it's exactly where blockchain can create the most efficiency.

Isn’t BTC more an anti-fiat vehicle than privacy?
I found a version of zcash:native which: - broadcasts your entire transaction history to the whole world - is not quantum secure and has no credible path to be - has no real plans to scale the chain to support global usage Oh and it trades at ~60x the market cap of Zcash.

Everyone is hyped about zcash and privacy meta but the guy who wrote the code for tornado cash is still in jail.
