The plan is to erase physical knowledge so they can monetize it.

One chain was never going to be enough.

Espresso co-founder @charleslu1 on why companies are building their own chains, what that means for interoperability, and how Espresso brings it together.

[Anthropic @AnthropicAI]

The US government, citing national security authorities, has issued an export control directive to suspend all access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 by any foreign national, whether inside or outside the United States, including foreign national Anthropic employees.

The net effect of this order is that we must abruptly disable Fable 5 and Mythos 5 for all our customers to ensure compliance.

Access to all other Claude models is not affected.

We apologize for this disruption to our customers. We believe this is a misunderstanding and are working to restore access as soon as possible.

Faster. We've reduced finality time on Espresso mainnet from 10 seconds to 2 seconds, and achieved 500ms on devnet.

@benediktbuenz, Chief Scientist at Espresso Systems, on the journey toward sub-second finality and what keeps driving the team to push it further.

The April Litecoin reorg cost crosschain protocols real money.

NEAR Intents lost 11,000 LTC and 7.78 BTC. THORChain was hit for a smaller amount the same day.

The root problem wasn't a Litecoin bug. It was probabilistic finality. 🧵⤵️

Why are banks and asset managers tokenizing financial products?

Distribution, says @benafisch. Going onchain meets users where they already are. Stablecoin holders can put idle capital to work in structured financial products without off-ramping to fiat.

Tomorrow Espresso completes its transition to Proof-of-Stake.

Join us to celebrate this milestone with the Espresso team and partners building on and securing the network.

We'll discuss why Espresso's transition to PoS is important, why L2s need fast finality, and what it unlocks for the chains in the ecosystem.

Lineup:
• @benafisch x @cryptomachia on Espresso's mission
• @benediktbuenz × @ChuckVeenvliet (@Blockdaemon)
• @benafisch × @marek_ (@Celo)
• @jillgun × @blockchainzilla (@ApeChainHUB)
• @cryptomachia × @circle_crypto (@LitecoinVM)

You stopped thinking about where you could communicate.
Soon you’ll stop thinking about which chain you’re on.

Composability is coming.

INTEL: Bithumb employee reportedly sent hundreds of users 2,000 $BTC during an airdrop instead of the intended token, causing Bitcoin to trade about 10% lower on the exchange than the broader market

[Benedikt Bünz ☕️ @benediktbuenz]

Road to subsecond finality is fast approaching. At 2 second finality with 5 Mb/s. Mainly through networking optimizations. Many improvements still to come including Hydranga (1 qc consensus).

[Espresso Foundation @espressoFNDN]

The Espresso ecosystem gained momentum during Q3 2025, and today we're recognizing the teams driving that growth as Season 1 recipients of our Espresso Partner Program.

Five new chains integrated with the Espresso Network (either testnet or mainnet) during Q3, gaining fast finality for their users and laying the groundwork for crosschain composability

Season 1 brought diverse use cases to Espresso's base layer:

- ApeChain (gaming/NFT focus & home of @apecoin)
- @t3rn_io (crosschain execution)
- @BuildOnNodeOps (decentralized cloud marketplace)
- @huddle01com (decentralized communications)
- Rufus (home of @DogelonMars' metaverse platform)

Existing partners @RariChain, @onappchain, @LogX_trade, and @MoltenL3 continued their mainnet deployments throughout Q3.

As of mid-October, Espresso validators have provided 9.8 million fast, secure transaction confirmations to these chains.

Infrastructure contributors also played a key role. @Celo advanced OP Stack integration work. @nethermind focused on Caffeinated Nodes R&D. @Superpositionso explored crosschain CLOB capabilities.

Our Partner Program evaluates partners across five criteria: depth of Espresso adoption, ecosystem impact, collaboration quality, team expertise, and integration effort.

Our Partner Program recognizes recipients with a token allocation from a dedicated portion of the initial $ESP supply.

Season 2 is now underway. Teams interested in integrating should reach out to explore opportunities.

Big news! ApeChain is fully integrated with Espresso mainnet, meaning all its transactions now gain finality w/in seconds rather than 12+ minutes.

Built by the BAYC community & home to @apecoin, ApeChain brings serious scale to the Espresso base layer.

Let's dig in 🧵⤵️

LogX is now brewing w/ Espresso!

As a DeFi-focused L2, @LogX_trade needs speed AND security. Our integration delivers both:

👉 Transaction confirmations in seconds, not minutes
👉 Protects against sequencer risk
👉 Enhances crosschain interop

The composable future is here ☕👇
