For half a decade, solana/web3.js has been how developers, apps and users interact with Solana.
Today, we're giving it the upgrade it always deserved: Web3.js 3.0.
A package with the API you already know, rebuilt from the ground up on Kit.
Flow Trades Solana source is now public.
We're opening the doors! Free to fork, free to ship, and actively looking for maintainers.
- 21 pool types across 20 DEX programs
- 0-block quote latency
- Geyser-native streaming
If you ship Solana, write Rust, or know AMMs — come build with us.

1/ Agave 4.0 is now recommended for mainnet validators. XDP for Turbine, QUIC-only TPU ingestion, faster replay stage, and a long list of feature-gated SIMDs activating during the cycle. Here's what's changing 🧵
At some point, you have to ask yourself whether Hyperliquid is anything more than an unregulated Robinhood.
I have asked myself this countless times, and my answer has mostly been yes.
I kept betting on HL because regulation felt far away, and that distance was where the asymmetric bet lived.
The gap between what the product could do and what regulated players were allowed to do was the trade.
Calling HL disruptive today feels like a stretch. It is a strong product, but structurally it is more of an unregulated fintech/brokerage than a new financial primitive. Its main disruption is regulatory arbitrage.
Decentralized? Not really.
Self custody? Debatable.
The only truly disruptive thing in this sector was perps, and perps existed long before HL.
Spare me the @’s calling me a retard, a noob, stupid, etc. Just play along with the argument so you can shut it down.....
If you add Robinhood’s regulatory burden to Hyperliquid, what makes HYPE disruptive, and how does HYPE win?
We just had the first successful Alpenswitch on our Alpenglow community cluster! The @solana finalization time improved 100x. Thanks to everybody participating.

BREAKING! this just in: 30% of pumpdotfun (around 30 people!) were laid off April 1, and received slaps in the face for severance. Remote+UK, mostly.
In total they were all due significant % the company AND tokenshare in equity, when vested.

cowards.
Crypto is paying a high price for years of altcoin scams and grifts. It can feel like a toxic industry where very little value is created.
It's easy to feel disillusioned and wish you were focusing on AI-related trading, businesses, or working at a startup in that sector. Many companies and investment firms have already begun the rotation out of Crypto. Don't let your apathy make you unproductive; it's your personal responsibility to continue learning about the world. If you feel the call of the wild, then go.
For the ones brave enough to stick around, not only will the risk-reward be as asymmetric as it's been in recent history, the concentration of upside in a handful of assets will make it EASIER to generate massive returns. There is less capital looking at Crypto exposure than ever before. This all changes with a rapid repricing in Bitcoin this year, which I believe is inevitable.
For a long time in Crypto, nothing felt buyable due to an excess of capital being forced to deploy in a sector with limited opportunity. We're in a new regime now.
We're reaching a similar level of apathy that I felt during 2019 and 2022. I almost quit Crypto to go back to TradFi. It's no surprise those were the years where I generated the bulk of my returns (sans Hyperliquid).
Outside of trading, if you're passionate about the space, companies that are still building during this period will be positioned to take advantage of the inevitable reacceleration of this industry. Working at top-tier companies in the space is more accessible than ever due to a shortage of people entering the field.
Don't undervalue your time.
50% reduced rent, ~4x increased txn size, 2x more cpi calls, 66% larger blocks and 150ms finality (alpenglow).
All this while still having decentralization, censorship resistance, and a burgeoning privacy ecosystem. Solana in agave 4.1 is leagues ahead of any competition.
If you’re thinking about building something, you 100% should be attending these in your city. The community we are putting together is STRONG. Even if it’s just an idea, come and meet like minded builders. It doesn’t even need to be related to Solana or crypto. Hop in!
Sydney was just the start 🇦🇺
Superteam Australia is here and this is just the beginning.
Melbourne tomorrow → Brisbane → Perth
Don’t watch it happen. Be part of it.
Australia 🇦🇺 it’s time to earn.
We’re opening up Superteam Australia from day one with opportunities for builders and designers to contribute and help shape what we’re building.
BREAKING: Solana processed a record $650 billion in Stablecoin transactions in February 2026.
As a result, aggregate Stablecoin transaction volume is now nearly a record $2 trillion per month.
Stablecoin volumes on Solana nearly TRIPLED month-over-month, with another surge expected in March amid the Iran War.
The surge in volume comes after the launch of Western Union's $USDPT, Jupiter's $JUPUSD, which has gained traction amid its goal of returning a yield back to the ecosystem.
To put this into perspective, CME Group futures trading in gold just hit a record $208 billion per month.
In other words, Stablecoin transaction volumes are now nearly 9 TIMES the size of gold futures traded on CME.
Sydney showed up 🇦🇺
Regulators, banks, investors, founders and builders all in one place for @blockchain_apac Policy Week.
Proud to start introducing @SuperteamAU alongside @PierTwo_com, @BitGo and @Macropod_AU
Superteam Australia is just getting started.
