Seeker Connect is live. Developers can now give users a named, branded, one-tap connection to the Seeker wallet across mobile apps and mobile web. No generic “Mobile Wallet Adapter” option. No second wallet picker. Just Connect with Seeker.

The audacity. OPOS
Solana's tech was already #1 for scaled crypto use cases. With Alpenglow, Solana is now light years ahead. The audacity to replace the core mechanisms of the network while handling thousands of live TPS is uniquely Solana. Congrats to the @anza_xyz team on shipping.

Happy Alpenglow. Slot 459,653,000 was a boring, uneventful and yet spectacular 217ms migration. Kudos to @anza_xyz @bw_solana @Ashwinningg @TheWattenhofer @qkniep and all the team! Only possible on Solana.

Alpenglow is live! It's been a crazy grind over the past 20 months bringing this to mainnet. Huge shoutout to the Anza engineering team, @TheWattenhofer and the research team, the Anza security team, all our auditors and bug bounty participants. And of course the validator operators who spent countless hours with their own hardware to help us test and bring this to mainnet. We couldn't have done this without you all! Lets AlpenGO.
Alpenglow is live on mainnet-beta ⛰️ 🎉 Solana’s new consensus protocol: finality reduced from 12.8 seconds to 150 milliseconds, built by Anza. Why this is important 🧵

Bringing Solana to campus 👀 As Solana University Ambassador, I hosted our first workshop at IIIT Guwahati with 49 students learning how to start building on Solana.

Alpenglow party tomorrow!
Alpenglow is pending activation on mainnet-beta. Alpenglow goes live tomorrow, Wednesday, Oct 21 at ~14:00 UTC. One slot, and TowerBFT retires. Migration boundary: slot 459,653,000. 24-hour countdown starts soon. Turn on notifications. 🔔

Slots are running faster, Alpenglow is tracking earlier.
🚨 Alpenglow update: epoch 1064 on mainnet-beta is tracking earlier than our estimate. Slots are running faster than projected, which pulls the epoch boundary forward. We’ll share an updated countdown time tomorrow morning once more data is in. Here is why timing moves. 🧵

Crucible, @asymmetric_re's Solana program fuzzer, is already hard at work.
For its first 6 weeks on mainnet, Solana's governance program had a bug: any validator could silently erase its delegators' dissenting votes. Without the fix, SGP-0002 would have failed by 0.02 percentage points. We found it with Crucible. Full writeup ↓
