Technical cofounder of @solana. Obsesses over programming languages, especially @rustlang. Not here much; reality is the only thing that’s real.
The Solana architecture will still be thriving 10 years from now. Library optimizations, compiler optimizations, and hardware optimizations will collectively outpace any need for sharding for the foreseeable future. There’s more tailwind than just Moore’s Law
And they’ve got more followers than me. I’m really bad at this internets thing
@garious14 impersonator. stay safe out there
working on sbpf light-build, a new build mode with minimum dependency, no llvm no lld. look how fast this baby is
Confidential transfers with Zether, Solana and Aptos share the same underlying techniques. Awesome to see someone working to explain how it works. This tutorial is brief, but enough to send you down the rabbit hole
Confidential transfers are essential for mass adoption. In the first video of our new series on confidential transfers, @furkanakalcom breaks down how Zether works. Watch ↓
Just wrote a song. Lemme know if you like it. @solana @solanaspaces @0xAmol @DegentlemanJohn
Decentralized California, who’s doing this?
idk why people keep capitalizing the "c" in "Decal". it's literally a regular English word. why would you capitalize a letter in the middle of a simple word?
Exciting times
Internet capital markets require confidentiality. Today, we're excited to introduce the development of Confidential SPL Token — a unified standard merging core SPL programs to bring native confidentiality to @solana. The same SPL experience — now encrypted. ↓↓↓
Low transaction price justifies introducing more advanced features. Not FHE yet, but maybe confidential transfers. One step at a time
Solana can power thousands of transactions per second, with a median transaction fee of $0.00064. When a blockchain consistently delivers on its promise of speed, scalability, and affordability, the market responds 👀
<200ms encryption might just save your life
Big shoutout to everyone who joined us for a morning Moonwalk and boba to kick off the day in NYC!🧋🌒👟 Picked up several more steppers after this 📸 during a quick stop at @solanaspaces
Sub-200ms or get back to IBRL

Want to see a lot of numbers above 200ms?
1/ 🧵 zkVMs will become foundational for Ethereum scaling — but how do they actually perform in the real world? @fenbushi recently benchmarked 8 zkVMs across time, memory, and proof size. Here is the important things coming from this work!
Want to hate banks? Just use crypto. Want to hate crypto? Just use crypto.
With SIMD-0075 live on Mainnet, Solana can now verify passkeys. Passkeys are a huge unlock for onboarding and UX: Wallets can now support biometric signing, passkey-enabled 2FA, and bring more robust wallet UX to Solana. Learn how to get started with @get_para 👇
