We’re sharing our completed post-mortem on the April 18th incident, prepared with @Mandiant and @CrowdStrike. We are publishing both an executive summary and the full report at the link below. Over the past four weeks, we’ve worked with hundreds of partners to help them understand their current security posture, and harden it where appropriate. We’ll continue this work, alongside taking additional proactive steps for the benefit of not only our partners, but also the ecosystem as a whole. We want to extend our thanks to our partners for their support and patience this past month. There’s a reason that over $12 billion has moved across the network in the past four weeks, and why the world’s most valuable asset issuers have stood by our side: they believe in us, in what the LayerZero protocol has to offer, and in the value of modular, isolated, application-controlled security. The work continues. And we look forward to continue showing up for the applications that trust us with their business, as well as the broader ecosystem. layerzero.network/blog/layerzero…

"Institutions really care about the sovereign properties of blockchains." @gluk64 describes on @Decentralisedco how Prividiums enable Institutions to participate in networks knowing the rules are cryptographically enforced.

Ethereum's Strawmap is the protocol's most significant strategic reframing since The Merge An attempt to fix the gaps that drove users to rival chains, and to position Ethereum as infrastructure for quantum resistance, privacy, and the AI economy. My latest for @glxyresearch

5,000 Banks. One Network. Here's the full thesis 🎧

What do institutions need in a chain for them to consider it seriously? @gluk64 joins us to talk about how @zksync is going after 5,000 banks with Ethereum as their moat.

Institutional bitcoin has remained parked for a decade because moving it on-chain exposes your position, your counterparty, and your intent before the trade settles. @Decentralisedco just wrote the clearest breakdown of why that's changing and how strkBTC is the first asset to bring compliant privacy, full composability, and a shared anonymity set to Bitcoin DeFi.

@peternoszek @desh_saurabh @vaidikmandloi Thanks Peter :)

This is a super clear overview of how the internet’s payment stack works. Relevant both for online businesses, and the future of the agentic economy. @desh_saurabh @vaidikmandloi @Decentralisedco open.substack.com/pub/decentrali…

@fenomenocap Good interpretation :)

the focus here would be: interface - ease of access/top-of-funnel extension - distribution moats revenue engine - cash flow stability

@katiabanina It is what it is. Or something like that. Hard to bring some of these instruments onchain without intermediaries fwiw. A tale as old as finance :)

vertical integration in the industry that claimed to cut the middleman is quite ironic

Margins in crypto will increasingly come from firms capturing the whole supply chain for value. That means building capability to speak to legacy legal systems and traditional financial markets. Vertical integrations for capital are everywhere for those with eyes to see.

@Decentralisedco "It resurrects HTTP 402, a status code defined in the original HTTP specification as "Payment Required" and left dormant for nearly 30 years" goes hard
