Lodestar is officially ready for Glamsterdam Devnet-5! Our team has implemented the full suite of spec updates, locking in our cross-client interoperability 💪
We’ve made powerful optimizations to the Ethereum-compatible JSON-RPC layer, including parallel batch processing, prefilled RPC caches, and new tooling to turn RPC traffic into queryable datasets for performance mapping.
The results? Average call latency is cut by 81.1% (😮)
Welcome to the chat: operator 2257
@Chainsafeth is now live as an SSV operator.
High-signal teams choosing distributed validation is exactly how we keep Ethereum staking resilient & decentralized.
Let's secure Ethereum together. 🤝
What’s next:
🌲 Ethereum-RPC performance optimizations and benchmarking.
🌲 Mempool and state-manager improvements and expanded automated testing.
🌲 Complementary snapshots with receipts, events, and a tipset index.

🌲 Forest Update for May 2026!
Bridge validators and DEXes now using Forest. There are discussions with Block Explorers, and more ecosystem teams moving to Forest, including for users of Forest-exclusive trace API calls ‘trace_call’ and ‘debug_traceTransaction’.
More updates and full report 🧵👇
More updates from the Forest team:
🌲 Network Upgrade: Filecoin NV28 successfully activated on mainnet on May 27.
🌲 New Versions: v0.33.3 (Ethereum API and stability fixes) and v0.33.4 (NV28 mainnet support).
🌲 Mempool Tooling: Added ‘nonce-fix' and ‘replace' helpers to ‘forest-tool' to clear stuck wallet messages and align replace-by-fee behaviour with Lotus.
There’s a signal in all that noise.
ChainSafe is now validating on @ssv_network.

A more intentional Ethereum.
From RFQs to solver competition, intents infrastructure should be permissionless, shared, and owned by no one.
Excited to have contributed to the Open Intents Framework and to see this next phase of adoption begin!
The protocol determines correctness. The operator determines reliability. How do you manage uptime and failover when the underlying system is fundamentally beyond your control?
Our latest piece breaks down this operational shift and where the new boundary of DevOps actually begins. Link below 👇
What if your users could trade with capital they've already deployed somewhere else?

This month we're filling it in - sector by sector.
Blockchain privacy is moving from ideology to architecture.
For years, privacy in web3 was treated as a philosophical ideal. In 2026, it’s a hard engineering requirement for institutional digital asset management.
We’re no longer just talking about why we need privacy. We’re looking at how we build it using ZK-Rollups, private L2s, TEEs, and FHE.
We took a look at today's privacy landscape in the article below 👇
We're joining @ethStaker to talk protocol development in the age of AI, minority clients, and how Zig is the future of all the things.
