.@solana's failure rate fell alongside faster slots.
Comparing the 400ms and 200ms periods, the share of landed non-vote transactions that failed dropped from 44.5% to 30.6%.
Failures also consumed less of the total non-vote compute: 29.8% → 20.9%.
Esentially this means a bigger share of compute going to transactions that actually succeed.
Bullish

For the next few days or weeks, anyone now has a root CA thanks to eMudhra. Time to have some fun with MiTMing unwilling devices!

tempo is built by the same team that i started in 2021 that built reth, foundry, alloy etc
reth is powering not just tempo, but also all of our competitors like arc, plasma, base- basically 100% of the high perf evm ecosystem
still lotta work to do but proud of the last 5 yrs

Following the mempool article, the reported* stake share onboarded to Everstake's Blockspace dropped by 46% 🎉
In an onchain NASDAQ future, services such as the one offered by Everstake enable toxic MEV and insider trading.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.
stay subbed, lads
We're back in the era of inference subsidy. Coding plans are ridiculously good value again

SIMD-0675 would reorder Solana's leader schedule so nearby leaders go one after another.
Replayed on 10 recent epochs, this geo-aware schedule would cut the mean leader hop in half (3,657 → 1,808km). Asia and the US gain the most (20-27ms per handover); Europe ~9ms.
