Before upgrading to HyperBEAM m3b3: >3 seconds per state request. After: <300ms. Huge thanks to all of the ecosystem projects that switched this week! 6 are already live, with more landing tomorrow. Devs: Still need to enable fast state lookups? The 3 easy steps are below 👇

Example of wallet-free HyperBEAM: Pushing a message to an AO process just by visiting a URL. Users only need a normal browser. Zero additional tools. Only available on HB edge for now. Steps to reproduce for the curious 👇
@SanOfABee Using the default config on edge you just need to add a `&!` anywhere on the path and your request will be signed. You can then call whatever AO-Core devices you like downstream and it will have the signature. Pushing messages to processes just by going to a URL feels pretty 🤯

🔐 We’ve extended HyperBEAM with GPU attestation support! Now, every message and AI inference can run securely inside a GPU TEE — verifiable, trustless, and built for scale. New device module just dropped: 👉 https://t.co/w4GKvXk2f6 Built with love for @aoTheComputer 💥

An identity device for HyperBEAM nodes. If the machine is TEE-protected then it could generate and host burner/low-value wallets and sign with just cookies as auth for users. Export wallet to users on request. Should be <100 lines ™️ (😅) How about you, Arweavers?
The weekend is here. What are you building?

The year is 2025. - You don’t own your money. - You don’t own your content. - You rent everything from gatekeepers. Bitcoin is how we fight back. Arweave is how we remember it.

The funny thing about these comparisons is that they kind of miss the point: Even if you did pay >300,000x more to store data on BTC/ETH etc, you aren't even buying a comparable product. In those networks you pay only for access to the network's scarce upload bandwidth -- it's
