Radix Weekly — Week #12 · 27 Jul – 2 Aug 2026

flightofthefox ran eight full Hyperscale nodes in a browser tab — the most tangible proof yet that sharded Radix can actually run.

@cz_binance Why not just get rid of Seed Phrases altogether.

On most chains, signing a transaction means approving a hex blob and trusting it does what the dApp says.

Radix transactions are readable manifests. Before you sign, the wallet shows the exact assets that will move – and you can attach a guarantee: receive at least X, or the whole thing reverts.

Blind signing is structurally impossible here. The wallet can't sign what it can't show you.

When did your wallet last tell you exactly what you were signing?

Small shift in Hyperscale approach 🫡

Last week I kept hitting walls, not because Hyperscale couldn’t keep up, but because the machines sending transactions were underpowered.

So instead of adding more nodes, I’m switching to a few big senders: 4 machines with 48 cores each. I remember Dan doing something similar.

Let’s see how far this gets us.

[Timan @timanrebel]

I'm going to share more of my journey towards a 1M tps on Hyperscale here 🫡

I've already been writing on the @radixdlt blog, but I realize X is the best place to share more frequent updates

Please help me keep it up 🙏

[Radix Community Council @Radix_ecosystem]

Great to see Timan committing to sharing his full technical journey toward Hyperscale here on X. 🫡

Regular, open updates from core engineers create alignment, educate builders, and help the entire ecosystem understand what goes into reaching massive throughput targets like 1M TPS.

Transparency like this strengthens the whole network.

There is no better asset model

If you care about crypto safety, this is one of the most important updates to watch.

From the @radixdlt wallet devs:
“More updates on MFA phase 2 will be out sometime next week, it is almost completed.
It might feel that the Wallet team is suddenly more absent because we did jump on finishing MFA which is a several months project…
And btw, one of the reasons to split MFA in 3 distinct phases was to not go AWOL for 5 - 6 months as we are working on finishing it.”

Why MFA (multi-factor authentication) is such a big deal:
• most of crypto still relies on a single private key
• one leaked seed, one hacked device, one bad signature = full account drain
• MFA adds extra layers, so one mistake is no longer a total disaster
• it moves wallets closer to how serious systems (banks, enterprise logins, etc.) already work

Seeing a wallet team spend months on MFA instead of flashy features is a very good sign for anyone thinking long term.

Radix Hyperscale testing has already reached 250k SPS, but the real breakthrough isn’t just the number - it’s who is running the tests.

When official validators join distributed testing, everything changes.

It stops being a controlled lab demo.
It becomes a real-world, decentralized stress test - the exact scenario no major chain wants to attempt publicly.

And if @radixdlt hits these numbers with real validators, then we’re not talking about “Radix setting a record.”

We’re talking about a global blockchain performance record under true decentralized conditions.
#hyperscale

[Radix Community Council @Radix_ecosystem]

Everyone talks about crypto security…
almost nobody talks about MFA.

Here’s the simple truth:

• Most wallets still rely on one private key
• One key = total access = most hacks
• Very few chains support real MFA on-chain
• Most “MFA solutions” are scripts or custodial workarounds
• In any mature digital system, MFA is standard - except in crypto

This is why the next generation of networks must treat MFA as a native feature, not an add-on.
#Web3Security #CryptoSafety

[Crypto_Girl @tadkis]

Most people think “wallet security” is about seed phrases and avoiding shady links…
but the real danger is something nobody likes to admit:

Most wallets are simply not designed for human behaviour.

Here’s what that creates:

• people approve transactions they don’t understand
• apps can request more permissions than users realise
• blind signing becomes normal
• one small mistake = total loss
• features are bolted on instead of built-in

The truth is simple:
crypto doesn’t need “more careful users,” it needs systems that remove failure paths altogether.

In the end, the biggest upgrade in security won’t be a new hardware device…
it will be wallets finally designed around how real people think.

@uttam_singhk Rate my app!

Realtime, non-custodial, p2p and trustless digital asset auctions using sub-intents. Users can bid using pre-authorised withdrawal tx's. When the auction ends then and only then do both the seller and buyer's assets get withdrawn and swapped.

[Timan @timanrebel]

I reached 250k tps on 32 shards this week! And those are swaps, not simple txs 👏

This, and a cool update on how I turn the lessons I learned running startups into a structured approach to running Hyperscale tests.

Worth the read!

[Crypto_Girl @tadkis]

People ask about Monad vs Radix, so here’s the simple version:

Monad is basically Ethereum but faster.
Same smart contracts, same token system, just running on a stronger engine.

@radixdlt works differently.
It has rules for tokens built inside the platform itself - so a lot of mistakes and hacks that happen on other chains simply can’t happen here.

Monad is an upgrade of the old way.
Radix is a new way.

That’s the difference anyone can understand.
#Radix #Monad #Crypto

[Radix Community Council @Radix_ecosystem]

Radix uses engine-level rules to handle how assets behave - and that changes everything.

On most blockchains, safety depends on how each smart contract is written.
Every project has to recreate the same rules, and mistakes slip through.

On Radix, core rules for assets and value movement live inside the engine itself.
They can’t be rewritten, bypassed or forgotten in custom code.

Why this matters:
• predictable behavior for users
• fewer exploits and logic errors
• simpler audits
• safer DeFi foundations

This is the difference between patching problems and preventing them.
#Radix #DeFi

[Crypto_Girl @tadkis]

People often ask how Radix compares to Cardano.
Both want safer DeFi, but they solve the problem in different ways.

• Cardano uses an extended UTXO model: strong on determinism, but complex when many users interact with the same dApp
• @radixdlt uses an asset-oriented model: tokens and NFTs are native objects in the engine, not patterns in smart-contract code
• On @Cardano, a lot of safety and logic lives in Plutus code
• On Radix, many rules are enforced by the platform itself, so the developer writes less custom logic around assets
• The result is that DeFi on Radix will likely feel more like wiring safe building blocks, not fighting edge cases in transaction design

If you are into Cardano’s focus on rigor but want to see a different take on asset safety and composability, Radix is an interesting mirror to look at.
#Radix #Cardano

Do you know why even the 100k swaps per second that Timan reached in testing is such a special milestone?

Most existing blockchains start to feel stressed when a lot of people try to use DeFi at the same time.
Apps slow down, fees spike, and everything suddenly feels fragile.

100k SPS means something very simple in human terms:
a single network handling a huge wave of real actions - people swapping, using dApps, moving value in parallel - and still running smoothly in the test environment.

As @timanrebel explained it very simply:
“20k pools per node sending transactions. Around 10 nodes sending a total of 100k transactions per second.”

While many networks are still fighting congestion at far lower levels of activity, this kind of result shows how far the Hyperscale work on @radixdlt is already pushing ahead.

It’s not just about being faster.
It’s about building enough headroom for an entire financial ecosystem to grow without constantly hitting a ceiling.

Hyperscale Re-birth https://t.co/7SYduH7MeC

[Adam @Adam_XRD]

Hyperscale continues exactly as Dan intended.

@timanrebel update shows how solid the foundations are, and how far the team has already pushed since restarting testing.

Strong work.
