A global settlement network requires great scale and reliability and @0xPolygon continues to lead the way with the Giugliano hardfork.

So far we're seeing:

* ~1.5s faster finality, allowing even our highest throughput platforms like @Polymarket to confirm transactions meaningfully faster.

* 2x to 3x more execution headroom thanks to a new prefetch mechanism that greatly increased our processing capacity.

* Better fee estimation inputs for tooling.

Based on the observed gains, the capacity unlocked by Giugliano points to a potential TPS range around ~7.7k to ~8.9k (~325M to ~372M gas).

@limone_eth @drift_money @Square This is what we need for crypto to disrupt the financial industry. Love your work

[Alex Bea @alextbea]

@Esk3nder Big thanks for your support getting this one across the line!

Ethereum addresses are essential but hard to remember. Ethereum Name Service (ENS) simplifies this by translating blockchain addresses into human-readable names.

Starting today, @ensdomains are now available on Linea, building towards our vision of a user-friendly Ethereum. 🥳

Resilient networks are crucial for long term success across the L2s ecosystem 🚢

@LineaBuild tech is rapidly becoming the best Rollup stack for scaling Ethereum

Yesterday, during the blob base fee spike, Linea demonstrated a unique mechanism that saved operators and users $$$

Situation: at ~6pm UTC+1, the blob base fee spiked to 6000 gwei! This is orders of magnitude higher than the usual 1 wei paid for blob gas by rollups.

@mcutler from Blocknative shared a great thread summarizing the impact this had on the ecosystem. Some L2's, like Blast, paid 5 ETH for a single blob carrying transaction (nearly $20,000!). Fees for users increased dramatically.

However, Linea did not even flinch. We've built a unique mechanism that monitors the L1 resources and chooses the optimal cost and time for submission. This mechanism takes into account both regular gas and blob gas, thus when the blob gas spiked, the data submissions were temporarily paused until the fees came down to more optimal level. As an analogy: if you think of Rollups as commodity traders of blockspace, then Linea traded significantly better than any other Rollup yesterday.

If you see the L1 blob gas price paid per Type 3 tx on Linea, it was capped ~1.5e-11 ETH

The user benefit of these cost optimizations is lower prices for L2 end users. During the blob gas spike, Linea was the cheapest Rollup, and remained at a stable low price for a great UX < $0.05 (h/t @growthepie_eth)

Linea Mainnet is not even 1 year old yet. Our superpower is shipping product: we can't control all outcomes but one thing is certain, we will not be out-shipped.

TL;DR: the tech is gud

[Ludovic Courcelas @Ludcour]

Did you experience high fees yesterday on L2s? Well, not on @LineaBuild. Linea is cheap, always, especially when it matters the most.

[Declan Fox @DeclanFox14]

Linea Mainnet was upgraded to Alpha v3.2 last week.

It was an understated release but the most cost-optimized tech stack just got even better; time to review the data

👀...

[Ludovic Courcelas @Ludcour]

⏱️ Today, we reduced block time to 2sec on @LineaBuild. We also reduced block limit from 30M to 24M. This translates into +20% max throughput. All thanks to the massive work done by the @HyperledgerBesu team. And they are not done! A lot more is cooking 🍲

Volt 1 of the Linea Surge⚡ is in action and keeping your assets safe is our #1 priority. 🫡

As the #LineaSurge progresses, we want to encourage the community to build an additional layer of protection and security by leveraging @MetaMask Snaps. 🦊👇
