Thanks for the tools @AlgoFoundation, template @ganainmtech, and with the agent-skill and vibe-coding @gabrielkuettel. Now let me see how I can make this https://t.co/z2as5aZemT game educational 🥰👍
🛡️ @AlgoFoundation is now the #4 most decentralized blockchain by validator count
With 1,542 validators, Algorand now ranks fourth among all blockchains tracked by Chainspect

From over 400 project submissions, we’re thrilled to announce the teams from AlgoBharat’s Hack Series 3.0 that made it to the final round. Great work, amazing to have you all with us at @Algorand India Dev Retreat in Goa, and excited to see what's next.
These @algodevs are ready to fly! Check out what they built . . .
🥇First Place: Team Astreous
Team Astreous’s Pixa agentic wallet enables AI agents to discover services, authorize payments, and transact autonomously using x402. Built as an MCP server, Pixa gives agents programmable access to assets, APIs, and micropayments with configurable spending controls.

🧵 125,000+ wallets now hold native $USDC on @Algorand.
At first glance, it’s just another statistic.
But it points to something much bigger. 👇
Native USDC on @Algorand is issued directly by @circle.
That means users don’t rely on wrapped assets or third-party bridges.
They interact with USDC natively on the network.
Why does that matter?
Because Algorand combines:
• Fixed, ultra-low fees
• Instant finality
• Native asset support
• No network congestion pricing
That makes it particularly well suited for use cases where predictability matters:
• Payments
• Cross-border transfers
• Agentic commerce
• Micropayments
There’s another reason this matters.
In its 2026 Quantum Security Whitepaper, Google Quantum AI highlighted USDC on Algorand as an early example of blockchain infrastructure supporting post-quantum digital signatures.
As digital dollars continue to grow, future-ready cryptography could become an increasingly important part of financial infrastructure.
The milestone isn’t really about 125,000 wallets.
It’s about the growing adoption of regulated digital dollars on blockchain infrastructure built for everyday transactions.
And infrastructure that isn’t just built for today’s economy…
…but is already preparing for tomorrow’s cryptography.
Infrastructure usually grows quietly…
…until one day everyone realizes it’s already everywhere.

If you're waiting for Q-Day to start migrating, you're already too late!
As highlighted by Algorand CSO @ChrisPeikert, migration takes years.
That's why organizations like Google and Cloudflare are already targeting full post-quantum cryptography by 2029.
Algorand has been preparing for this for years, with a roadmap to achieve broad quantum resilience by 2027! 💪
Don’t wait until Q-Day. Try @Algorand.
Now with Python and typescript programmable $USDC.
Check out AlgoKit and start today. @algodevs

@JMB_DUNN No not 10%, a nickel fee for a dollar. That still sounds a lot isn't it?
How about a penny for every dollar? Is that not worth for the security, scalability, and decentralization of Algorand?
That still is more than 0.001, a 10% increase to 0.01
Excited to roll this out finally. When we inherited the kick-ass protocol team they were on the path to a more sophisticated fee model based on resource usage, so we are incorporating this into the fee proposal. Next up EAC!
Algorand just won Blockchain Technology for North America at the 2026 World Finance Sustainability Awards.
The room: FedEx, United Airlines, Cargill, Ecolab.
Good company for a carbon-neutral L1.
Algorand just demoed Falcon-1024 signing on a Trezor. On-device. ~0.7 seconds.
Post-quantum isn't a whitepaper anymore. It's signing transactions on hardware you can buy.
still "too early"? 🔴🟢
Growing up is realizing that China should have won the block size wars.
If they had, bitcoin:native might've had the throughput to actually penetrate developing countries like El Salvador as p2p electronic cash.
More importantly, it would've prevented the profoundly stupid “digital gold” narrative from taking hold -- the exact story people like Saylor used to financially engineer the concentrated leveraged instruments that are now imploding.
That said, there's a silver lining. If there was ever an event that could finally decouple the alts that are actually scalable and serving real users from Bitcoin... which has achieved nothing, neither as a global store of value nor as a payment rail... this is it.
