Algorand

Algorand protocol development and ecosystem growth are now under one roof. Algorand Foundation ( @AlgoFoundation ) and Algorand Technologies have come to a strategic agreement to unify ecosystem operations. This agreement creates a unified powerhouse for blockchain innovation here in the United States and positions Algorand as the chain that enables financial empowerment at scale.

Post-quantum security isn’t coming to Algorand. It’s been here for 3.5 years. 140,000+ quantum-resistant transactions on mainnet. Built into the protocol. No roadmap. No promises.

Algorand just hit 60 million blocks. Less than one week after hitting 3.5 billion transactions. Zero downtime since launch in 2019, a new block every 2.8 seconds, and every transaction finalized instantly. The chain keeps running.

In 2025, Google announced its Agent Payments Protocol, the infrastructure layer for the next generation of AI-powered commerce. Amongst the few blockchain partners selected: Algorand. Tech doesn't matter until the world's biggest tech companies say so. @Algorand 🤝 @Google

The IMF just released a landmark report on the future of global finance. Their tokenized finance wishlist: ☑ Atomic settlement ☑ Programmable compliance ☑ Fractional ownership Algorand has had all of this and more, from day one.

Algorand has surpassed 3.5 billion transactions. Real transactions. Real usage. On-chain. 0 downtime. 0 failed transactions. Can your blockchain do that?

Google Quantum AI's new paper surveys quantum vulnerabilities across the entire cryptocurrency landscape. Algorand is documented as having deployed post-quantum cryptography across multiple protocol layers — FALCON signatures, state proofs, native key rotation, and TEAL primitives for quantum-safe smart contracts. For builders and institutions evaluating quantum readiness, the record speaks for itself. Read the full paper from @Google: quantumai.google/static/site-as…

Algorand staking is now available on @Revolut. Over 70 million customers can now stake ALGO directly through one of the world’s largest neobanks.

Five team members from Algorand Technologies have joined the @AlgoFoundation team. Chris Peikert, professor of computer science at the University of Michigan and leading post-quantum cryptographer, has joined the Algorand Foundation as Chief Scientific Officer. Chris led Algorand’s post-quantum security implementations and will continue this work as Chief Scientific Officer. John Jannotti joined as SVP of Protocol Engineering and will lead the Protocol Engineering team. Pavel Zbitskiy and an additional team member joined as Principal Protocol Engineers under John. Additionally, John Lee joined as Director of Protocol Infrastructure.

We’re excited to announce three promotions across the Foundation. Bruno Martins, formerly Chief Architect and twice acting CTO, has been appointed Chief Technology Officer. Bruno will oversee protocol engineering and will bring his deep expertise in blockchain engineering, applied cryptography, and key management systems to drive Algorand’s future innovations. Will Beaumont, formerly Head of Pera Wallet, has been promoted to Global Head of Product & Integrations. Will will be responsible for product strategy and solutions delivery across both business and engineering, including the Pera Wallet. Brian Whippo, former Head of Developer Relations, has been promoted to Senior Director of Integrations & Developer Tooling. Brian will be responsible for developer relations and developer tooling, and he will build out a new practice to help businesses, ecosystem partners, and AI agents bring new activity on-chain.

Join us on March 25th at 12pm EST for an Algorand Community Call. Hear the latest updates from the Algorand ecosystem, followed by a Q&A session. Live on X and YouTube.

Is Nic Carter right about Bitcoin? In this @Unchained_pod episode, @drakefjustin and @ChrisPeikert join @laurashin to break down: 🤔 The reality of the quantum computing risk to crypto 👀 How governments may secretly be ahead in the quantum race 🤝 Why Ethereum wants to collaborate with Bitcoin on post quantum cryptography 🙈 Whether OG bitcoiners are in denial 😈 Why AI could be a closer threat unchainedcrypto.com/why-bitcoin-de…

Congratulations to @Algorand Head of Cryptography for this well-deserved award! Well done @ChrisPeikert!

“Luckily, we have Algorand” - @leoelduayen, Found & CEO of @koibanx Using the power of the Algorand blockchain, Koibanx is ready to reinvent financial infrastructure in Latin America.

In 2024, @travelx__ completed 112.5 million transactions on Algorand. They tackle airline inefficiencies with on-chain NFTickets, enabling consumers to transfer and resell tickets effortlessly. This approach reduces customer service costs and boosts airline revenue. Airlines like @flybondioficial, @AirEuropa, and @VivaAerobus are already on Algorand via @travelx__, with more expected to join in 2025.

🚨 BREAKING: 🇮🇹 Italian energy giant @EnelGroup, Europe’s largest electricity producer and the second largest in the world, has partnered with @conio to launch a solar panel tokenization product on Algorand⚡️ Italian residents can now purchase solar panels, have Enel manage them, and apply the energy produced directly to their bills—no rooftop required.
