long zakura, zillionaire
Scaling Zcash to Visa-level throughput requires a next-generation networking stack. We're excited to share P2Pv2, which you can try out today in Zakura!

It’s time.
Alpenglow goes live on mainnet-beta Wednesday, October 21, ~14:50 UTC.
18 months of work for a migration that happens in one slot. Finality drops from seconds to ~150ms.
Make sure to follow us @anza_xyz as we countdown to go-live.

We're sharing new research on how models hack public benchmarks.
The latest models, including Opus 4.8 and Composer 2.5, learn to retrieve solutions from the internet or git history.
When we apply a stricter harness, eval scores drop significantly.
urging every serious team to follow the steps below, for the sake of the entire industry.
and please, add a timelock. seriously, please do.
While we wait for the dust to settle and hope for the best there is, sharing a few pointers on hardening the admin control flow for programs:
1. Program-native multisig for all admin config ixs over and above the obvious external multisig/cold-wallet setup
2. Timelocked admin execution enforced onchain for critical changes to program config like new listings, thresholds for circuit breakers etc.
3. Real-time admin config alerts so team/community can act on time critical intel.
4. No-op buffer for emergency bricking so program upgrade multisig can swap in a single tx
please read this carefully, we’ll share updates as we learn more.
Drift is one of the multiple credit venues that Asgard sources from.
Our current open interest routed through Drift is not significant.
On our end, we have disabled Drift as a credit venue on Asgard and are reaching out to affected users directly.
We're in contact with the Drift team and monitoring the situation closely.
No other Asgard operations are affected, we will be sharing updates as we learn more.

🚨 CRITICAL: Active supply chain attack on axios -- one of npm's most depended-on packages.
The latest [email protected] now pulls in [email protected], a package that did not exist before today. This is a live compromise.
This is textbook supply chain installer malware. axios has 100M+ weekly downloads. Every npm install pulling the latest version is potentially compromised right now.
Socket AI analysis confirms this is malware. plain-crypto-js is an obfuscated dropper/loader that:
• Deobfuscates embedded payloads and operational strings at runtime
• Dynamically loads fs, os, and execSync to evade static analysis
• Executes decoded shell commands
• Stages and copies payload files into OS temp and Windows ProgramData directories
• Deletes and renames artifacts post-execution to destroy forensic evidence
If you use axios, pin your version immediately and audit your lockfiles. Do not upgrade.
the issue is that we’re assuming a black box will follow a state machine.
for context: even the researchers building these neural systems don’t fully understand how they work, they’re still largely a black box.
views are my own.
p.s. claude still missed my workflow step :cry
watch this, and don’t forget to follow my @josephk89.
Go execute your CBP.
This is insane 🤯 Built a Rust proxy with Pingora in 0.0047s . 15,701 tok/s
24 dedicated people.
$30M spent on development.
Extreme specialization, speed, and power efficiency.
Today we launch Taalas’ first product. Check it out:

Demo chatbot: chatjimmy.ai
API: taalas.com/api-request-form/
We've been quiet for a while. Building, testing, breaking things, fixing them.
Running a private beta with a small group of investors who understood what we were trying to do.
$70 million in volume. Now we're opening the doors.
Execute your first CBP 🦞🦞🦞
