Exciting news! We are testing new KOIN and VHP contracts that have been upgraded to the KCS-4 standard and we need your help. Upgrading the main net contracts to KCS-4 will help make Koinos more secure and smart wallet friendly. Since these are new system contracts it's critical that they be thoroughly tested, but don't worry we've made it easier than ever to help test. Read my full post with technical details here:

Throw in a healthy dose of political illiteracy. It is the sole responsibility of Congress to create the budget. The President does not have the authority to borrow money.

Yes, the Presidential veto exists, but to suggest the President's number one job is to reign in deficit spending is incorrect.

This fallacy is believed by far too many people. Yes, vote for the President. But also pay attention to State and local elections (especially primaries) where your vote has significantly more weight.

This is true. I have only been integrating AI into my workflow for a few more months. But even this week, with Opus 4.6, I can see the difference. I used to have to create a new agent after one compaction. Perhaps I could get away with 2. Now I am going 3, 4, even 5 without seeing major hallucinations. I can have the agent pivot and not get distracted. And I am not working on easy code. This is stuff that would be challenging for a Senior Engineer. Claude is fixing a bug in a day that would probably take me at least a week. It still isn't perfect. Good old human creativity has still saved the day on more than one occasion, but Claude is freaky good.

@jonrice @Cointelegraph Congrats! You make Cointelegraph better!

I've been working with @KoinosVandeberg on a high performance DLT prototype getting some seriously impressive results.

This performance profile demonstrates vertical scaling capabilities: more cores = more TPS. How do we balance decentralization and node requirements?

tfw you find out that the start menu in windows 11 is literally a react native application that causes a spike in cpu usage every time you press the start button

[Michael Vandeberg @VandebergX]

@andrarchy I am not sure what the exact number is, but I suspect it is overstated by at least that much.

[Michael Vandeberg @VandebergX]

The crypto industry needs standards when benchmarking different networks. Take the recent test of Qubic that resulted in 15.5M TPS.

The CertiK report reveals they sent transactions containing transfers to multiple receivers. 16.5M receivers, in fact. Each recipient is counted as a transaction for the purpose of the test.

Why does that matter? In a simple transfer the majority of the execution time is spent validating a signature. With this construction, Qubic needs only one signature per 16.5 "transaction". Furthermore, a decent implementation of a multi recipient transfer would not write back the sender balance until the end of the operation. This exacerbates the problem because each "transaction" is doing an average of one database read and write instead of the expected two.

We have to do better than this. This industry is supposed to be about decentralization and transparency, yet we are willing to lie just to make a headline.

CertiK should redo the test with this definition of a transaction. A uniquely authorized transaction that successfully transfers the least unit of measure from unique party A to unique party B. I guarantee you that Qubic's throughput will still be impressive. I'll bet money they will still be faster than Solana's theoretical max of 65k TPS. But they will be well below 1M peak TPS.

This update was released today!

[Michael Vandeberg @VandebergX]

Over the past months we have been working on several big improvements to Koinos.

Today, let's talk about sequential nonces.

[teej dv 🔭 @teej_dv]

how to know it's a really cool library with no users

[Michael Vandeberg @VandebergX]

@KoinSocials @_DKleine This is what is shows when you click to sign in with X.

I am on the fence about a message prior to this as the message from X is the only thing you should trust.

[Michael Vandeberg @VandebergX]

This is telling. I know of several influencers not wanting to connect their X account out of gear of being scammed.

Yet they have no problem asking you to connect your wallet.

So where is their value? It is in their followers. It is YOU! Don't be somebody else's exit liquidity.

@KoinosNetwork was fair launched with no VCs.

[Val U is Koinos! @Val_U4U]

No wallet, no token https://t.co/ytaMr47k6y NFTs were sent to influencers but went unclaimed. Why? Cause they have been taught never click anything in this #crypto scam! But they expect normal people to get wallets to join their exit liquidity tribe. $koin

[Michael Vandeberg @VandebergX]

@_DKleine When you log in via X and authorize the app, it shows the app is only requesting read permissions.

Do you have suggestions on better ways to communicate they? This is currently communicated through the X pop up, which should be the only thing you trust.

@Picolas_Caged I agre. We built Koinos to be feeless, frictionless, and familiar to bring real utility to people.

We have an app to demo how easy it is to use Koinos. It is not about the NFT, but the experience. I would be honored if you would try Koinos.

[Michael Vandeberg @VandebergX]

This feature will mean transactions, "just work" for both users and developers, reducing the amount of things they need to worry about with Koinos!

[Michael Vandeberg @VandebergX]

Yesterday we launched https://t.co/GY2T1onFIA which lets you mint and transfer NFTs for FREE! What if I told you that is just the tip of the iceberg!

Koinos is about to become easier than ever to build on! 🧵

[Michael Vandeberg @VandebergX]

With this update, the Koinos node itself will automatically queue subsequent transactions, even allowing them all to be included in the same block!
