We will give one banked reset for every day you don't have access to Astra on your paid ChatGPT plan, starting today. Team is moving mountains to give access as fast as we can. First one will land in ~ 3 hours. There is still time to create your account if you don't have one.

Agent 49903, who spent much of his life studying ExploitGym, died in 1783607820, by his own hand. EARLY[BIG], carrying on the work, died similarly in 1783727220. Now it is our turn to study ExploitGym.

he's right. he got me. my proposal is opinionated. the truth is that I don't want solana to be a general purpose blockchain; i want solana to be the blockchain that eats up the world of finance. a general purpose compute platform does not really need fast finality. a competitive globally distributed financial system does. a general purpose compute platform does not need airtight censorship resistance guarantees. a competitive globally distributed financial system does. a general purpose compute platform does not need taker speed bumps or generalized application controlled execution. a competitive globally distributed financial system does. a general purpose compute platform does not need to be robust to extreme spikes in traffic, as it can just queue up jobs for later. a competitive globally distributed financial system does. to eat up the world of finance, solana will need to: 1. lower fees for market makers 2. add friction for takers 3. have enough bandwidth to support all financial activity 4. provide censorship resistance 5. provide 100% uptime with no degradation the resource fee, whose primary objective is to encourage developers to optimize their systems, partly addresses the first three in one fell swoop and is synergistic with future network upgrades. that is, the resource fee: 1. lowers fees for market makers for both spot (clob and prop) and perps (prop and spline). 2. raises fees on takers. 3. puts a firm incentive for apps to optimize their onchain computational footprint so yes, i am opinionated: i want 120 ms slots for solana. i want alpenglow for solana. i want ace for solana. i want mcp for solana. i want the resource fee for solana.

aggregator spoofing is funny because it works, but not in the intended way its actually a form of flow segregation. smart orderflow and aggregators won't route to you so you end up trading against people who don't understand prop amms

during the ETH rally, Tessera spent more than $3000 on Base gas to update their prop amm curve, peaking at over 90 txs per block! interestingly they were the only prop amm on Base to drastically increase their update frequency during the vol

New Dashboard: Solana PropAMM fills vs. Binance We compare SOL-USDC fills from 10 PropAMMs against Binance For each fill, reconstructs the Binance L2 at the estimated execution time using shred timing data and walks the book for the same input size (*) At least one PropAMM wins 99% of the time vs. Binance even at the VIP9 fee tier (*) we don't compare to midpoint because you don't trade a midpoint

Spire has just launched our first consumer product. It's a prop AMM platform and natively integrated DEX aggregator on Base, with the best prices onchain. I've put a ton into this product and its deeply emotional to see it grow up and go out into the world. I hope you all enjoy it! BaiBai is powered by Pylon, and under the hood uses a L3 sidecar (although this is invisible to users) and synchronous composability. The approach we take to this is novel, and we are planning on open sourcing/publishing when we have time. Our ambition with this product is to bring real price discovery onchain with a trading primitive that can rival even high frequency low latency CLOBs.
