Opinions are my own.

Big news: S&P Global has entered an agreement to acquire OpenZeppelin.

We started in 2015 with the vision of a secure, open financial system powered by blockchains and smart contracts. Ten years and $37 trillion in value transferred later, the standards and rails our team and community built carry major DeFi protocols and blockchain networks as well as the largest stablecoins and tokenized funds.

With @spglobal, those standards and rails can now reach the benchmarks, risk frameworks, and institutional reach global markets already run on.

Proud of the @OpenZeppelin team, everything we’ve accomplished, and everything we’ll continue to build together!

We identified an entirely new taxonomy of bug classes specific to Daml's execution model and built three open source tools to address them.

[The Graph @graphprotocol]

The Horizon upgrade is now live.

The Graph now supports a modular, multi-service future.

Horizon unlocks the ability for new data services to be built on the same protocol. Subgraphs continue as always, but The Graph’s underlying protocol now has the capacity to integrate new products like real-time streams, preindexed APIs, analytics tools, and more.
The Graph is not just Subgraphs; it’s a data protocol with many data services.

[Defi Security Summit @summit_defi]

Auditors spend hours tracing code and writing docs. What if AI could handle that work?

At DSS, @iginguu from @OpenZeppelin shows how AI can document codebases, flag security risks, and verify findings so auditors can focus on creative vulnerability discovery.
