Pretty sure @mert's tweet got cut off at the start, "All the other " is missing here 🤔

block explorers will be dead by EOY

before: click on static spreadsheet tables endlessly

now: talk to the chain in english. ask specifically for what you want. generate visuals live.

we are calling it @LanaAI, invite only as we iterate

Big IBRL week

We deployed archival v2.1 to our US clusters

Here are the results (p95 latency):
- getTransaction: 7ms -> 1ms
- getTransactionsforAddress: 350ms -> 30ms (!!)
- getBlock: 50ms -> 35ms

What changed?
1. Re-worked the transaction storage layer from the ground up
2. Implemented our own rpc protocol (over tcp) for storage <-> proxy communication

EU and APAC clusters will deploy next week. Enjoy!

Disclaimer: Latencies are measured from within our network. To observe similar numbers, call our new Gatekeeper edge network from EWR or NY.

@fluffy_trex Could you show repaying from Wallet by ticking the toggle beneath the Asset selection? 😬

[Melted @MeltedMindz]

People really need to stay out of my DMs.

Leave me alone and get a job.

This is getting annoying.

[Linkie Link @LinkieLink]

@sandro20212 @AndreCronjeTech I swear that wallet never owned an NFT besides the ones I sold to get paid for contributions.

You know, $25 (0.5 ETH) per transaction wasn't crazy at all back then.

[Linkie Link @LinkieLink]

Back in 2017, when I was an EVM dev still, the first thing I learned from
@AndreCronjeTech
was: "Always test in prod!" Well... Worth it!

@saneinthembrn @PythNetwork oracle. So combined/median CEX prices

[Linkie Link @LinkieLink]

We received backlash for the activated circuit breaker mechanism in our protocol during yesterday’s events. However, as someone who has personally witnessed the Terra crash, the FTX collapse, and the Covid market meltdown, it has always been my deep conviction to prioritize the security of user funds over the pursuit of protocol revenue.

The circuit breaker was triggered by a steep, market-wide decline across all major assets, temporarily pausing protocol activity for about an hour and a half. During this time, the market was free-falling but later began to stabilize in a new price range.

During this period, some users, particularly short sellers, expressed frustration that they couldn’t close their perpetual positions at peak profit.

However, thanks to this anti–price manipulation safeguard, we prevented approximately $6 million in user deposits from being liquidated.

I understand that not every protocol operates under the same ethos, and that some might prefer a “profit-first” approach. But I firmly believe that protecting user funds in moments of extreme volatility is more important than enabling opportunistic gains during a market crash.

Yes, we lost users because of this decision. But in a cross-collateralized environment like @mars_protocol, even a single instance of price manipulation can cause catastrophic losses. That’s why I continue to stand by the decision to integrate and maintain the circuit breaker since the adoption of our @PythNetwork oracle.

Going forward, we’ll improve transparency by adding a clear UI indicator whenever the circuit breaker is active. Still, I am not in favor of removing this protection merely to allow individual profits at the expense of broader market stability and user safety.

[Mars Protocol 🔴 @mars_protocol]

🛰️ Circuit Breaker Activated

The entire Mars Protocol, including Perps, Red Bank, and Vaults, is temporarily halted due to extreme market volatility (>±15% price move within 1h).

This means:
• No new trades, borrows, or withdrawals can be made
• No liquidations occur
• Funding rates are paused
• Protocol resumes automatically once volatility normalizes

This mechanism protects users and the protocol from price manipulation and cascading failures during abnormal market conditions.

[Linkie Link @LinkieLink]

@stabletuna We will introduce USDC isolated accounts that allow for higher leverage on perps and also not be subject to the circuit breaker. I understand that some users want to take that risk. But we will have them in an isolated environment, that is the only solution I can think of here.

[Linkie Link @LinkieLink]

@El_Blank0 @stablepunk It was a hectic night (in my timezone) and I fully understood your reasoning. No hard feelings.
Happy to still have you as a user!

@crypto_birb Happy Birthday! What a perfect present you got there, with the ATH 🥳

[Linkie Link @LinkieLink]

@Fyveonit @mars_protocol @amberfi_io Profits are reserved and won‘t go nowhere. Take your time. Just wanted to make sure it's visible 😉

[Linkie Link @LinkieLink]

Good morning and happy Bitcoin ATH!

What began as an example vault on @mars_protocol has turned out pretty profitable.

But with maxBTC yield bearing strategies incoming, I want to position myself in @amberfi_io.

That‘s why I‘d like everyone who deposited into my vault kindly to withdraw their funds. I converted all the BTC in it to USDC so you should be able to withdraw without an issue.

If you like the experience of passive asset management, then I can recommend @fluffy_trex Delta Newtral vault. He‘s doing a fantastic job increasing the value of his depositors!

Please check your deposits and withdraw them as soon as possible:
