What's cooler than wearing a plastic badge that has your name printed on it?
Wearing a hardware badge that can display your name and run your applications!
Wanna know how to get one? 👇
Introducing the Solana BP Badge, a devkit for learning about and exploring Solana by building apps, playing with hardware, and winning prizes.

Solana Alpenglow 1-week later 🧵
With Alpenglow now live, Solana is moving faster than ever and we're seeing some interesting changes in how Solana builders are using our infrastructure here at @Alchemy 🧵
Most “AI slop” isn’t a model problem. It’s a feedback problem.
I made a video on automated verification loops in Claude Code.
You'll learn how to make the agent check its own work and fix it before you ever see it.

Compiling Solana Programs with plain Rust, no extra fork needed!
That's the promise of the sbpf linker in v0.2.3
I checked how to do it and what the limitations are 👇
Light takes about 134 milliseconds to circle the Earth
With Alpenglow, @solana now reaches finality in about 150 milliseconds.
“The 150 millisecond number is basically the speed of light around the globe.”
@bw_solana, CEO of @anza_xyz
Fast today and ready for tomorrow.
Solana has been early to quantum readiness and remains ahead in its preparation.
@anza_xyz's @qkniep and Alex join @nocircuit on The Stack to walk through Solana’s post-quantum path: well-researched, aligned across client teams, and ready to deploy.

What would Solana’s consensus look like in a post-quantum world?
Meet Quantumglow: a proposed adaptation of Alpenglow that aims to protect consensus while preserving fast finality.
@jacobvcreech and @qkniep explain how it works. Full video below👇
