@bfmbusiness @evajcqt En plus de l'identité numérique et de l'euro numérique. Quand on additionne le tout ça donne le crédit social Chinois

Pallas reached v1.0 🚀 After years of building, breaking, and rebuilding — our Rust-native toolkit for Cardano hits its first stable release. Stable API. Long-term support 🧵👇

None of this happens alone. Thanks to the 60+ Pallas contributors who've shipped PRs, filed issues, and pushed Pallas forward over the years 🙏 To name a few: @amw7 @rvcas @ch1bo_ @clarkalesna @hrpr @JSHyCS @_KtorZ_ @nicolasdiprima @Quantumplation @SebastienGllmt @SmaugPool @blocksmithy @matiwinnetou @therealdisasm

Hi Dreps and other interested parties! With the upcoming @IntersectMBO funding round coming up I want to share my technical opinion on some crypto based proposals! This to properly inform you (I hope). Proposers, I'm not here to bash you, let's discuss. See below 🧵

@Loran750 @serphacker @revowebfr Les storage boxes Hetzner, c'est 20To max.

@serphacker @revowebfr f**** ! Je ne peux pas prendre du Storage Box de Hetzner à cause de la bande passante constatée (entre 50 et 100 MB/s), soit au plus 18,5 jours de transfert continu 24/7. Trop long :) Dommage car financièrement c'est top. Mais ça veut dire que je dois prendre 2 mois de dédié !

waaaaaaah les serveurs sont devenus super cher !!! J'ai besoin d'une grosse bête pendant 1 mois avec 256 Go de RAM et 80 To (80000 Go) de disques HDD (pas SSD, trop cher). - Le Cloud c'est exclu, c'est au moins 5 X + cher que le bare metal ! - Les setup fees de 500 à 1000 € c'est juste pas possible. - Faut que ce soit en Europe #TeamRGPD. Vous avez des conseils ? Chez OVH j'ai l'impression que c'est la seule solution.

Earlier this week, @JBriggsLondon informed me that his team had uncovered a coordinated effort to subvert the @IntersectMBO committee elections. Under the board's direction, Jack and the staff acted to remove inappropriate ballots from the count and deliver secure results. Intersect has also suspended the members believed to have violated the terms of membership, pending a full review. This is a genuinely difficult situation because Intersect is, at its core, an organization open to anyone in the Cardano community who wishes to contribute to the ecosystem. That inclusivity is foundational, part of our reason for existing. But inclusivity is not the same as the absence of standards. If we want Intersect to be a legitimately welcoming environment, where people can contribute, disagree, and engage productively, then we have to maintain norms of civil discourse and fair play. The two commitments are not in tension, they depend on each other. Over the past several days, a number of members have asked me to comment on this situation, both through direct messages and by tagging me on this platform. I deliberately held off until Jack confirmed that we had enough information to stabilize the situation and offer the community a clear update. Waiting was the right thing to do, not a way of dodging the question. Ultimately, this matter is about following the right process to safeguard the integrity of Intersect as an organization that is accountable to its members, supports its staff, and serves the Cardano community. As a community member, I often want to step in and share what I know with others who have questions. As a board member, however, it is often the case that certain matters must be held in confidence until the full picture can be presented to the community in a way that allows the situation to be understood and analyzed fairly. Speaking too early would have undermined precisely the legitimacy we were working to protect. In this case, Intersect staff took four days to gather the relevant information, consult with the board on appropriate actions, stabilize the situation by delivering secure election results, and then brief the community on what occurred. I am proud of how this was handled. It demonstrates the organization's growing capacity to identify potential issues and respond to them with discipline. The board has worked hard over the past year to strengthen Intersect's structure and help the organization operate more effectively. There is still a great deal of work ahead, and we will continue our efforts. But I am deeply grateful to Jack and the team for the substantial improvements already in evidence, and for the care taken to ensure the integrity of these elections.

Did you know @Cardano_CF is one of the longest-standing and most actively developed networks? With 3.6K devs and 278K commits, Cardano ranks among the leaders in Web3 Secure and reliable infrastructure is built through years of consistent development 📊 chainspect.app/dashboard/deve…

Day 1 update of incentives voting. CIP-50 is currently passing by a good margin and with the parameter result skewing toward "Less than 500" If this result ultimately passes then it will require 150k ADA in pledge for a Cardano stake pool to prevent becoming oversaturated. ..

@HAMDAStakePool @pool_pm Yes, congrats on your block!🔥

@SmaugPool @pool_pm I simply wanted to give my block production a special celebration. Unfortunately, that doesn't happen all that often on the mainnet. By the way: Cardano folks, delegate to small pools—that way, they won't stay small. 😄

Do you know alpha.pool.pm by @pool_pm? The video shows the mempool filling up with transactions, and the Hamster Stake Pool validating a block. Thanks to @SmaugPool for this cool feature. #Cardano #CardanoCommunity

This is live, in a Hydra head, on mainnet L1, today. More info available at docs.ekklesia.vote (including audit guides soon). Cast your vote at app.ekklesia.vote today!

The Rewards Sharing Scheme v2 ballot by the Cardano Incentives Working Group is now live on Ekklesia! If you are a dRep or SPO you are eligible to vote on these proposals. See the thread below for the link and for more information 👇🧵

@ada_stat Yes. I will try with 11.0.1, I think it should work too.

@SmaugPool Just copy /node-folder/ledger/* to /db-sync-folder/ledger-state/* Don't forget that it requires the latest (10.7) version of cardano-node

Bad news: upgrading requires a full ledger replay from genesis and can take a few hours. Good news: the ledger snapshot format is now fully compatible with cardano-node (latest). What does this mean in practice? If you already have a fully synced DB-Sync, you can simply reuse the ledger state from the node instead of waiting hours for a replay. I tested this with node v10.7.1 and DB-Sync v13.7.0.4 - the migration took about 5 minutes for mainnet. Enjoy your weekend 🙂

@ada_stat Ah got it, thanks a lot.

@SmaugPool You only need the 'ledger' folder, not the entire folder.

@ada_stat Thank you. The dbsync state is much smaller than the ledger one though (15GB vs >200GB). Will dbsync strip it when starting from the ledger one ?

@SmaugPool DB-Sync still requires its own copy, so you should copy the node 'ledger' folder to the DB-Sync 'ledger-state' folder

Many, many questions... 🤔
