@LadyofCrypto1 Research @radixdlt and you'll ask yourself why other L1 don't have all these native features.

Radix 2024 in Retrospect ✔️
Hi everyone,
I want to share my "Radix 2024 Wrapped" experience. It was an amazing, challenging, and emotional roller coaster. There were setbacks and disappointments, but also many achievements, preparations, integrations, and milestones that have set the stage for a fantastic 2025. 🤟
Overall, I aim to maintain balance between the good and bad, focusing on delivering great things on the unique Babylon network - which is already Live and Kicking! By learning from mistakes, we can do even better in the future. The Radix Foundation, RDX Works, dApp projects, (institutional) partners, and the community are all fully aligned in this endeavor.
✅ Achievements and Milestones by Radix and the Community (Delivered On Time!):
- Partnered with @BuildWithGrove, integrated with @AlchemyPay, joined the @idOS_network consortium and @redstone_defi & @morpher_io Oracle integration

- Additional ongoing Ecosystem Asset Fund: $25,000 per month to buy and hold native assets in the Radix ecosystem
- The Radix team made significant improvements to the Radix Engine, Scrypto, and Radix Wallet this year, including native account deletion, viewing history, USD value, and much more.

The Transaction Manifest could have saved users millions of dollars from blind-signing their assets away to scammers.
It offers human-readable transactions so you will always know what your transaction is going to do.
To a user, it looks like this, with each action presented clearly visible in human-readable language ⤵️
Radix Labs Hyperscale Alpha Network Test = Dec 18, 2024.
Targeting a sustained 1M+ complex TPS!
This is a real-world style test: globally distributed nodes, complex transactions, and all essential features enabled.
No shortcuts, no gimmicks—just authentic scalability.
GM! I'm incredibly excited about all things Radix right now:
Before Christmas:
- The first big community TPS tests at scale with @fuserleer
- Enactment of "sub-intents" onto the network
After Christmas:
- Anthic goes live on @Ociswap
- Native multi-factor support: "no more seed phrases". I really want to order *my* Radix-themed @thisisarculus cards!
- Launch of the institutional lending dApp "Blend"
And much, much more:
- Integration with @LayerZero_Labs & @StargateFinance
- CBDC test pilot with @dcwalletglobal in India
- Carbon trade/credit project
- Ociswap's sXRD goes live (& more!)
- Let's see what else @BHDigitalAssets & @twinstake_io is cooking
- Hopefully some nice Tier 1 listings
- More hackathons
- More meetups & conventions
In general, expect more fun and hype with our ever-growing Radix community & ecosystem in 2025! 🚀
I raise you ... 🤣
Not sure people have understood today
Radix research net did not just run a benchmark on a single machine and got like 50k tps
It ran 256 commodity (4 core, 12GB machines) that are globally distributed at 300,000 swap/second for 9 HOURS!
10B SWAPS
Not colocated
That is fucking insane!
@FreshEquinox@eawosikaa@mert@toly That‘s the beauty of the mentioned Radix solution.
Human readable transactions make drains impossible. A unique killer feature.
@undacappn@MatRabbit@solana@radixdlt allows to do this in a safe way for users thanks to human readable transactions. No risk involved, no simulation necessary.

We have enough founders, we need more leaders.
Many founders get controlled by the community, which impacts every decision they make
"I'll do this for the community", "what will the community think?"
It's easy to focus on generating bursts of floor price pumps to bring an overall bullish sentiment
However, this does more harm than good in the long-run.
A strong leader can control their community and make them understand they're here for the long-run
I don't care if the floor doesn't move, as long as you're showing what you're building will work to sustain the project.
Too many short-term mindset people in this space don't care for the "tech".
I am betting on strong leaders in this space above anyone else.
Come hang with @SelfiSocial and @SRWAio in Toronto, Canada 🇨🇦 where both teams will provide more insight into what they're building on Radix.
