Big milestone for GateOmega 🎉
We’re now ISO/IEC 27001 certified - reinforcing strong security governance and operational discipline.
A globally recognized standard, providing added assurance for individual delegators and institutional Solana staking. #solana#staking
We’re aware of some temporary issues affecting validator and epoch data updates on SolCircl.
We’re working on a fix and will try to resolve it as soon as possible.
Thanks for your patience 🙏
Solcircl Update: Starting April 12, 2026, versions earlier than v1.4.0 will no longer be supported and may stop working. You can check your app version in the GateOmega tab. Please update to the latest version to keep using Solcircl. #solana
SolCircl will be temporarily unavailable for about 1 hour on 16 March at 09:00 CET due to infrastructure maintenance.
Thanks for your patience.

Solcircl v1.4 is live 🎉
Small update, smoother experience ✨
Solcircl v1.4 brings improved backend stability, subtle UI polish,
and Jito BAM visibility in My Validator. #solana#validator
To stay competitive and sustainable in the rapidly evolving Solana ecosystem, our validator commission will adjust to 5% effective epoch 889.
We remain committed to performance, reliability, and transparency. 💙⚡️
Solana’s biggest protocol shift is here: SIMD-0326 (Alpenglow). It replaces TowerBFT with a faster, cleaner consensus. As validators, here’s how we see it 🧵
1/ Voting cost:
🔹Today: ~2 SOL/epoch in vote txs.
🔹Alpenglow: vote txs gone, replaced by 1.6 SOL VAT/epoch (burned). Cheaper, simpler, but still a fixed cost.
2/ Finality:
🔹TowerBFT: ~12.8s
🔹Alpenglow: 100–150ms. That’s NASDAQ like speed which is 100-400ms.
3/ Resilience:
🔹TowerBFT: safe up to 33% adversarial stake.
🔹Alpenglow: live even with 20% adversarial + 20% offline (“20+20”).
4/ Certificates:
🔹Off-chain votes → leaders aggregate into notarization, skip, or finalization proofs. Less spam, lighter ledger.
5/ Economics caveat:
🔹The VAT is only part of the story. Leader rewards, relay/repair incentives, and VAT levels might depend on future SIMDs. Economics are not fully settled yet.
7/ Trade-offs:
🔹MEV profits shrink ~30–40% → good for users, but may push validators to centralize geographically, especially with upcoming JITO BAM changes.
🔹Stake-ordered propagation could disadvantage small validators. That might be mitigated with Double Zero.
#solana #SIMD0326 #alpenglow
GateOmega stance:
We’ll vote YES on SIMD-0326. ✅
Faster finality and lower costs are critical upgrades. But we expect clear follow-up SIMDs on economics + decentralization protections.

While implementing a planned change, we encountered an incident that caused a brief outage. The team fixed it and service was restored in 32 minutes. The Solana node is back to normal now.
💡 Right now, over 13M SOL is idle in stake accounts, earning nothing. This is called Inactive Stake. #solana#solcircl
Here’s how it happens — and how to claim it back. 🧵
🚀High-performance chain, high-standards community. 🤝Appreciate @JPoolSolana’s Community Good support for SolCircl—it keeps independent teams moving. We’ll keep shipping tools for Solana stakers and validators. #jpool#solana#solcircl
