m'am please — solana did not have an outage
the avg fees spiked, and some apps did not adjust to increase their fees, but blocks were produced and txns were going through (source: our RPCs had a 100% land rate, which is not possible if the blockchain was down, see screenshot)
and this was 2-3k TPS during the biggest crypto onboarding event **in history**, the highest volume numbers in crypto history, phantom alone did more txns than any single blockchain does today, and that's just one app — the demand was more than all L2s combined by several multiples (l2 gas spiked higher than sol did at 20x less the scale just yesterday)
there is *of course* still a tremendous amount of work to be done, tons of more shit to improve and iterate on so that this is a better experience for next time and we will get it done (because we have gotten it done time and time again) — no one is saying this was handled perfectly and we have at least 10,000x improvements to make in the work; but that was not an "outage"
in fact, within 2 weeks, it will be 1 full year with 0 outages, and 2 full years with 0 performance related outages
(and eth does not cost a little more, it costs 2,000x more at 500x lesser scale)
DeFI x Web3 Gaming, a real-world case: Aurory.
2025 is the year of the bull (run). I strongly advise anyone who are looking for Investment cases for this coming year to look at the below. The topics below covers Aurorian NFTs.
It’s been a year of great changes for @AuroryProject and the market🌐🔄
In 2024, we had SOT, the LB, the art upgrade, tons of new events, and Nefties🎨🆕
We continued working through both the bear market and the bull market, leaving behind a fantastic 2024 with our eyes set on a bright 2025 🌟📈
But we never would have made it without all of you, who are the beating heart of this project and this incredible community 🙌❤️
Happy New Year to all Aurorians and Seekers, and remember to stay united, let’s devour 2025! 🚀🎊
Happy New Year, Seekers and the @AuroryProject team!
I’ve had an incredible time playing this game, especially as a huge Pokémon fan. The experience has been everything I hoped for, and after reading about the roadmap from Aurory and hearing Sir @JohnnyAurory discuss the exciting updates planned for 2025, I’m even more hyped for what’s to come!
The mobile release has been a seamless and rapid transition, and it's amazing to see Aurory growing and expanding to reach even more players. I was particularly excited to witness this firsthand at the @YGGPlaySummit, where I had the chance to connect with @RafikeyTV and so many passionate members of the community.
Looking forward to even more exciting moments in 2025!

At the start of 2024, we published this roadmap to you. Our promise to deliver on Seekers of Tokane.
I'm super happy to see that we delivered on most of what we promised. A huge congratulations to an extremely hard working team that delivers over and over in terms of quality gaming experience.
Now, I know what you are going to say, but Johnny the ones in red are what we REALLY wanted and you still haven't delivered those.
That's fair, but game dev is never a calm predictable ride. We failed to achieve certain objectives, and that's ok. It's part of the journey.
What's important is to remember to be retrospective on what went wrong and analyze how to constantly improve our methodologies and workflows.
2025 is only getting better!
Thrilled to announce Seekers of Tokane is a GOTY contender at the @PlayToEarn Game Awards 2024 🏆
If adventuring through the Everlasting Lands, conquering epic bosses, and snagging legendary rewards got your heart racing, we need your vote ✅
LFGame, Seekers ⚡️
@anglio Quite clearly @AuroryProject
FP sits under NAV from the @DaoryAurory treasury and there are multiple other benefits to the NFT. Big plus if you're into gaming
