so what is the actual utility of snt now?

After I posted @StatusL2 yesterday a few people mentioned they had never heard of them lol. (I liked that someone mentioned @ethstatus along the line) Well where did Status Network come from? StatusL2 is not just a random build, like how would LineaBuild pick a random project alongside big guns like consensus? They didn’t just appear overnight guys. Status has been quietly building core Ethereum infrastructure for years long before “gasless L2” became the headline. Let's dive in further shall we? Status started in 2017 as a privacy first mobile app> • Secure messaging • Crypto wallet • Web3 browser The mission > make Ethereum accessible plus censorship resistant, but to do that, they realised the Ethereum stack needed more than apps. It needed a solid infrastructure. So Status got to work on building the missing pieces. • Waku > a decentralized messaging protocol, built to replace Whisper and power secure, p2p comms for Web3 apps. • Codex > a decentralized storage, A censorship resistant way to store plus retrieve data. • Nimbus > a lightweight Ethereum client, Optimized for mobile plus resource limited devices. These were not mere side projects. They became foundational parts of the Ethereum ecosystem. Waku > now used beyond Status itself Nimbus > a respected client in Ethereum consensus Codex > paving the way for decentralized infra This background explains why Status Network looks different from most L2s. They did not start with a token. They did not start with sequencer fees. They started with infrastructure plus good principles. The StatusL2 is just the next chapter. By combining what they have learnt • Privacy (Waku) • Lightweight scalability (Nimbus) • Data availability (Codex) They are building an Ethereum native rollup that is Gasless Spam resistant Sustainable So when you hear Status equals gasless L2 remember the roots. This is a project with 8+ years of history, building tools that Ethereum still relies on today. The StatusL2 is the culmination of that journey not the start. Status is not just another L2 launch. It is the continuation of a vision > Private communication. > Sustainable infrastructure. > Credibly neutral coordination. You can find out more about StatusL2 from their website.

Over the next several weeks, we're spotlighting the founding stewards of the Linea Consortium, the trusted Ethereum-native organizations managing 75% of the LINEA token supply for ecosystem growth. First up: @StatusL2, a builder aligned with our values since day one.

status season 2 incoming think base app but with a focus on privacy

we are part of @ethstatus SNT is deeply integrated into Status L2: - holders will be able to stake SNT to secure the spam protection in the gasless L2 design - there will also be an SNT buy back and burn program using the L2 native yield

Get ready to experience the next evolution of L2 — unlike anything before. #Gasless @StatusL2 @ethstatus
