Yea, a graph of stake vs leader slots is better than a list.

@Bryan_TitanA Thanks for the recommendation!

Hold jagSOL, point it at MAS DeFi, and JagPool matches it with real stake in LATAM — you back your validator and decentralize Solana with the same jagSOL. No lock, no fee, your yield unchanged. @JagPool_xyz @MAS_DeFi

Another spot on take from @GeoffreyHuntley

Have always favored the cli with help for agents but getting in training is next level thinking.

wow it actually worked. Don't try this at home! Been building a lot of automation infra and this seemed like the ultimate step. So psych'd for the future.

[MAS DeFi @MAS_DeFi]

Validator operations center coming along nicely! Booting Firedancer on testnet for us right now.

[MAS DeFi @MAS_DeFi]

swapped. but did AI do the swapping??

[MAS DeFi @MAS_DeFi]

It's alive. A bit RAM hungry compared to Agave but incredible work @jump_firedancer team getting it down so low! 🔥💃

Sometimes you're the YO and sometimes your the LO

[Jacob Creech @jacobvcreech]

This is an incredible improvement for all Solana devs and going to change the way we build

Build with upstream, not forks

[MAS DeFi @MAS_DeFi]

By the time you finish this sentence @solana will have completed 20 slots!

[Tim Garcia @TimGarcia0]

200ms slots!!

[MAS DeFi @MAS_DeFi]

Transactions settle in ~150ms, not 1-3 business days, with a cryptographic guarantee. Payment processing moves onchain with no intermediary to reconcile against.

BREAKING: Samsung partners with Solana to bring stablecoins to 82 million US Galaxy devices.

Samsung Wallet users in the US will be able to send money across borders using USDC on Solana, beginning the last week of October.

[Bryan | Titan Analytics @Bryan_TitanA]

I know everyone is trying to sell Breakpoint tickets but txv1 just saved me 67% in fees and reduced my transaction count by 2.8x. That means less congestion, less priority fees, cheaper RPCs, imagine if EVERYONE did this? Man this is good for everyone but validators and hardware providers... ... ... Oh shit. 🧟
