Not *that* Mike. Teaching decentralized infrastructure at Pocket Network. Gurgi is my spirit animal. My own thoughts only, not an official company voice.

[Mike P | Pocket Network @MikePOKT]

Very much enjoyed this thread. Seems spot on to me. Thanks for spreading the word on what we're trying to accomplish!

@POKTnetwork is a hidden gem 💎

It's a critical piece of #Web3 infrastructure, but 99.9% of people don’t understand it b/c it’s very technical

Below I’ll explain how it works in terms a 5 year old can understand

(and why I expect demand for $POKT to skyrocket)

Not a lot of double greens on that list! It's great to be the privacy outlier, but I do wish (for the ecosystem's sake) that wasn't such a big differentiator. 🤷

[POKT Network @POKTnetwork]

We're happy to see our status on Chainlist has been updated to 🟢🟢! Privacy is critical to our users, and the collecting of IP addresses will never be on the table, ever.

LeanPocket is one of those amazing why-didn't-we-do-this-before? kind of optimizations. Great work!

[POKT Network @POKTnetwork]

It's official - the LeanPocket beta release just dropped! 🎉

LeanPocket brings MAJOR optimizations to the Pocket Core Client, cutting the cost of running multiple nodes by up to 99% 💪🏼

Huge shoutout to @ThunderheadWrld & @PoktFund for all their work 👇

Take that, so called "crypto winter". We're still here, and still building.

[POKT Network @POKTnetwork]

📢 🎉 We’re excited to announce that we’re rolling out a big update to the Pocket Portal today!

So what’s new in the Portal? 🧵

Two years in blockchain years is like 10 in normal company years. And it's no small feat to be still growing, even now. Amazing.

[POKT Network @POKTnetwork]

⌛Today Pocket Network turns 2🎂 since our Mainnet launch ‼️‼️

We remain amazed🤩 at our unstoppable growth since starting our journey. 🚀

Great graphic here. Impressive to be able to distill a rather abstruse (but important!) proposal to something that anyone can understand. Bravo.

[Ming @Ming_Chun_Lee]

Great simplified explanations of PIP-22 https://t.co/OAGI0vQZxt provided by @poktpool that recently passed on @POKTdao.

Accurate assessment of the last year and current status in Pocket land

[Mike P | Pocket Network @MikePOKT]

@El_polloloko @POKTnetwork No, "zero to node" is meant to be a way of saying "how to start from the very beginning and set up a node". It has nothing to do with staking minimums.

[Mike P | Pocket Network @MikePOKT]

This is going to be good.

[POKT Network @POKTnetwork]

1/ This past weekend, I published my open letter to @POKTnetwork putting the spotlight on $POKT economics. The @POKTdao needs to consider changes to parameters that affect costs of the network to promote short and long-term sustainability.

Wow. Anyone want to play hockey? I'll bring the stick. 👇

It's pretty satisfying to be experiencing "the network effect" when you are the network.

[POKT Network @POKTnetwork]

Well, that was fast . . . . 🚀

[Michael O'Rourke 🌿 @o_rourke]

per WAGMI, the network-wide inflation target was dropped to 90% yesterday

[Michael O'Rourke 🌿 @o_rourke]

to put the recent growth of relays in context:

9 months ago we were doing 5m - 10m a day

on track for ~650m ath today

it took us about a year from launch (july 2020) to get the quality of service and product to a level that spurred the last 9 months (july 2021) of growth

[Mike P | Pocket Network @MikePOKT]

Still a good read though: https://t.co/BasWPpIDnn

[Mike P | Pocket Network @MikePOKT]

Our blog post about inflation from last week is already out of date (mentioned 200-300M relays). 🤯

The numbers speak for themselves . . . . 🎉🚀 #web3 #blockchain #Infra
