@Papariscu @MultiversX @xAllianceDAO Will be building something wild soonest 👀

@0xdevv @MultiversX @xAllianceDAO 600ms blocks are actually game-changing 🔥 Finally feels like we can stop hiding chain logic behind off-chain crutches. What are you planning to move over now?

MultiversX pushed block times toward 600ms, roughly two blocks per second – which is a big deal for how fast apps feel in real life, not just on paper. This shift is about making transactions feel instant, so users can tap, sign, and see results in real time.

✅ Secure Proof of Stake ✅ Meritocratic validator selection ✅ ~3,200 active validators ✅ Zero equivocation ✅ Formally verified VM ✅ Fully sharded, horizontally scalable ✅ Parallel cross-shard execution ✅ ~$0.0002 per transfer ✅ Unconsumed gas refunded ✅ Gas abstraction ✅ Onchain 2FA ✅ Protocol-native tokens ✅ Fungible tokens ✅ Non-fungible tokens ✅ Semi-fungible tokens ✅ Multi-token transfer ✅ WASM smart contracts ✅ Custom-built Virtual Machine ✅ Native VM elliptic curve operations ✅ Multi-VM customizable chains (Lightspeed SDK) ✅ Reproducible smart contract builds ✅ Upgradeable contracts ✅ Chain Simulator ✅ Millisecond-precision smart contract timestamps ✅ Mature onchain governance ✅ KPI-gated emissions ✅ Developer royalties ✅ MCP integration ✅ Agentic Commerce Stack (x402, UCP, ACP, AP2) ✅ MX-8004 agent identity standard ✅ Agent Builder Hub ✅ Carbon negative ⏳ Sub-second finality (Supernova) ⏳ Protocol-native Zero Knowledge proof Built different.

If you’re building on MultiversX today, ask yourself: “What part of my app felt too slow to be fully on-chain before?” With 600 ms blocks, some of those pieces can now move on-chain without destroying UX.

Bots and agents that can actually operate in real time Trading bots, arbitrage systems, on-chain keepers, and autonomous AI agents all depend on speed. Shorter block times reduce the window where prices change but the bot is stuck waiting for confirmation.

Supernova is live on Battle Net. Here's what changed under the hood and why it matters. The paradigm shift nobody's talking about: Every blockchain in the industry is measured on two metrics: block time and throughput. Faster blocks = better chain. More TPS = better chain. ---------- Supernova breaks this framing entirely. For the first time in the blockchain industry, block finality is faster than block slot allocation. Let me explain what that means. How every other blockchain works: Traditional blockchains follow Execute → Propose → Vote. Validators must execute every transaction before proposing a block. The block slot is the clock. Finality can never be faster than the slot, because execution is in the critical path. Ethereum: 12.8s slot, ~12.8 minutes finality. Solana: 400-600ms slot, 13 seconds finality. Sui: variable, ~500 to 1000 ms for complex transactions. In every case: finality ≥ block slot. This is treated as a law of physics. It's not. ---------- How Supernova works: We flipped the model to Propose/Vote → then Execute. Consensus proceeds independently of execution. Validators agree on transaction ordering first. Execution results are notarized in subsequent block headers via inclusion proofs. The inclusion proof is the key innovation: it allows a block to be finalized with cryptographic proof that its transactions will execute correctly, before the execution itself completes. The virtual state tracker in the transaction pool maintains a deterministic view of account states (nonces, balances, pending transactions) so consensus can validate without waiting for full execution. Result: the block is finalized faster than the block round itself. 88ms finality measured in testing. Sub-200ms under real-world conditions. On 600ms block slots. Finality < block slot. First time in the industry. ---------- The throughput story: With the same hardware specification as pre-Supernova mainnet, the network now achieves ~120,000 transactions per second in burst mode. Same nodes. Same machines. 10x the block production cadence. This is the same validator infrastructure running fundamentally better software. The backpressure system (Execution-Result Inclusion Estimator) ensures this scales safely - dynamically adjusting per-block gas limits if execution lags behind proposals, so minimum-spec nodes never get overwhelmed. What this means in context: - Block time: 6s → 600ms (10x) - Finality: ~88ms measured (first blockchain where finality < slot time) - Throughput: ~120,000 TPS burst mode (same hardware) - Architecture: consensus fully decoupled from execution - Sharding: 3 execution shards + metachain, fully preserved - Validators: 3,200+ nodes, no hardware upgrade required ---------- Battle of Nodes is stress-testing all of this right now. $150K in prizes to find what breaks. Validators, security researchers, builders, and guilds pushing the limits. If Supernova survives this, it ships to mainnet. 150,000 lines of new protocol code. 20 months of engineering. The most significant upgrade since genesis.

OPOS stands for “Only Possible On Supernova” btw 😏

No confirmed exploits yet, but bug hunters are deep in the consensus logic. Tomorrow, we expect more "Guild Wars" action to further push cross-shard coordination. Stay tuned for the next update! 🌌

🏆 Leaderboard Shift: The Validator Track is seeing a neck-and-neck race for stability and performance. Currently, the top spots are held by a cluster of elite operators including: 🔹 erd1r4...u8cj 🔹 erd1nz...gk7z 🔹 erd168...p008 With 5,300 points each 🛡️

The Supernova era reached a fever pitch! 🔥 Today, March 16, marks a pivotal moment in the @MultiversX Battle of Nodes as the network activates the major protocol upgrade to test 600ms blocks and parallel execution. The stress is on, and the validators are feeling it! 🛠️

@MultiversX these days

Supernova is live. The largest network upgrade in MultiversX history has been activated on our Battle Net. Over the next week, validators, developers, and community members will push it to its limits and harden its security. Live, in public, with real stakes.

The Battle of Nodes continues. Tomorrow, the first Guild Wars Challenge goes live at 4PM UTC. $10,000 in EGLD for the best competitors.
