We’ve added a CLI for Claude Platform to make every API endpoint runnable from your terminal.
Call the Messages API, stand up Claude Managed Agents, pipe results straight into your shell.
The ant CLI is well understood by coding agents (Claude Code) using the claude-api skill.
Introducing Claude Opus 4.8: it builds on Opus 4.7 with sharper judgment, more honesty about its own progress, and the ability to work independently for longer than its predecessors.
Available today at the same price.
Private L2 payments don't need a server-side prover
PlasmaBlind is a new payment design by Pierre & Chengru that generates client-side zero-knowledge proofs in under 100ms on a laptop — while hiding amounts and recipients.
• 270–360 ms per transaction
• Instant exits to L1
• Built on Sonobe folding schemes

An early beta of Grok Build, an agentic CLI for coding, building apps, and automating workflows is now available for SuperGrok Heavy subscribers.
Through this early beta, we will improve the model and product based on your feedback.

Effective today, we are:
1) Doubling Claude Code’s 5-hour rate limits for Pro, Max, and Team plans;
2) Removing the peak hours limit reduction on Claude Code for Pro and Max plans; and
3) Substantially raising our API rate limits for Opus models.
A fact I feel like almost nobody knows: Ethereum's gas limit will be increased to ~200M after Glamsterdam, a huge increase from the 60M we have today.
That’s a 3x+ of L1 execution capacity, with expectation of further doubling soons after that. Assuming no similar increase in demand, fees could stay near zero for years.
This is the result of several innovations coming together at the right time: ePBS gives payloads more time, BALs let clients prefetch/parallelize execution work, and gas repricings make higher limits safe.
Congratulations to our co-founder and CEO @MurielMedard on receiving the IEEE Richard W. Hamming Medal at the 2026 IEEE Honors Ceremony.
A well-earned honor, and a reminder that the work isn't finished!
It's been a hectic week in DeFi, but Lido is still going strong. Wondering what contributors are working on and what's in store for the next year? Check out this fireside with @d_gusakov, @sasha__gusakova, @KimonSh and @penzjun at Lido Day in Cannes.

Lido contributors are actively working on Curated Module v2 👷
At @LidoFinance Day in Cannes, I shared a status update on the road to mainnet and what this upgrade means for the evolution of the Lido validator set.
