Ever wondered how fast chains really impact you as a user? How about a race? Test how fast chains are from your browser Chain Derby ↓

hiring in crypto marketing is like hiring a Japanese translator when you can’t speak Japanese. they all sound good, but you cant tell how good they really are

Thank you for the kind words! Attached is how we achieved 3~8 times higher throughput than OP Reth, and ~50 times lower latency than flashblocks (discounting ping). Meant to write an article ages ago, but we kept extending the design... Maybe once we replace EngineAPI with
Rise @rise_chain has some of the best architectural decisions I’ve ever seen. Their blog is very good. We’re incorporating many of their ideas to what we designed and implemented with @gattacahq into @ethrex_client L2 mode but also with distributed ZK proving.

Samarth has been in my DM's, experimenting with our tech, poking and prodding since day one of our testnet I'm stoked to have such an enthusiastic young engineer join the team. Bang-on cultural fit
ANNOUNCEMENT TIME 🗣️🗣️ I've joined @rise_chain as a Fullstack DevRel Engineer. I'm gonna be shipping, explaining, and helping devs build the next frontier of apps and tools on RISE Huuuge thanks to @sam_battenally @degenRobot and team RISE for giving me this opportunity🫡🫡

Onchain volume for gold is spiking Early indicator for RWAs imo

The crazy part is LLP probably has some edge and selini is still so damn competitive

Roughly a year later, on the same $160/month bare metal, we've gone from 25k to 90k peak TPS. Extremely stable without a single block lag. A novelty here and there, but mostly execution with high standards enabled this. You won't believe the actual next novelty we ship.
snmalloc raised @rise_chain's peak TPS on commodity hardware ($160/month for nodes) from 20k to 25k TPS. This is only with Continuous Block Pipeline and before pevm, VMT, and RiseDB! Cannot wait for Rust's allocator_api to stabilize and maybe ship risemalloc by 2026 🤞.

Another example: you're rebalancing a yearn strategy, how do you use lighter spot for the rebalance?

Pretty loose use of the term composable imo In defi, we're familiar with synchronous composability, which Lighter is not. Correct me if I'm wrong here, but I don't see how you could do leveraged looping with flash loan on an LLP position?
lighter should be bigger than bybit in a years time. All the components are there and more. Never could CEX achieve such composability of a DEX on layer 2. I never even dreamed about using your Defi stakes as collateral. Crypto derivative will move on-chain. The future is on

Never been a more exciting time to build onchain markets

Listing onchain on orderbook spot markets is going to be the status quo in 2027 And it will be massive. Transparent and way more competitive. Better for projects listing. Better for retail.

30 of these in a block and we’re at 1 Gigagas
A fully on-chain Perp DEX just matched 300 orders in a single 34M gas transaction on our Testnet: https://t.co/3mfCur6EaH Receipt and logs were broadcast in ping + 3ms; latency not too bad. The linearly scaled gas consumption looks interesting, though. Intuitively, there
