Flock exceeds the hashing throughput required for 3,500 Ethereum transactions per second. It can prove a Bitcoin block in under 2.5 seconds. @benediktbuenz runs the numbers on what Flock means for the post-quantum transition on @zeroknowledgefm.

Flock does one thing: prove the same computation many times, like hashing. That focus may sound like a restraint, but it's what makes Flock the fastest SNARK prover ever built. And batch hashing covers most workloads that matter in practice. @benediktbuenz on @zeroknowledgefm:

The question at @blockworksDAS wasn't whether institutions are coming onchain. They are. The question was what infrastructure is ready for them. We came with an answer. Espresso was one of the top 7 most-discussed protocols at the event, where @benafisch & @ellierdavidson demoed a crosschain collateral management system with @awscloud that reprices millions of positions every 0.3s and triggers crosschain margin calls settling within seconds. Ben then joined @The_DTCC, @BNBCHAIN, @Nethermind on stage to discuss building the institutional digital asset stack and how Espresso's infrastructure layer enables real-time coordination across chains. Fragmentation is one of the biggest barriers to institutional adoption. Real-time interoperability is the fix. That's what Espresso is built for.

The foundation of onchain finance is finality. Espresso CEO @benafisch on why a universal database with real-time transaction finality is what will make seamless, interoperable financial systems possible. On stage at @blockworksDAS with @The_DTCC @BNBCHAIN and @tkstanczak

The future of blockchain isn't a faster world computer. It's a world database with real-time finality focused solely on confirming (not executing) transactions for Layer 2 chains, enabling them to securely coordinate in real time without compromise. That's the Espresso Network.
