The meme of putting light clients in toasters is half ludicrous joke, half weirdly serious requirement Being able to verify a system enables true decentralization and autonomy Light clients need to be 1st class participants. They also need to be light enough to put in a toaster

Mina zkApps with Celestia underneath ✨ @CelestiaOrg’s modular data availability layer is coming to Mina Protocol, enabling higher-throughput zero knowledge applications and L2s @__geometrydev__ will spearhead the integration work with technical support from @o1_labs 🧵
This is the first step to based rollups. Imagine instead of pushing a file you push a transaction If we can find a way to make the user only interacts once, this will be even better Currently for based rollups you would have to sign once to pay for execution and again for DA

What's cool about this is that for the first time in history, this allows us to extend the functionality of an L1 without an on-chain user scripting environment. Simply by adding a new account type. forum.celestia.org/t/achieving-ba… This is an exciting new direction for Cosmos chains.

so we decided to run a little working group for celestia’s zk account model and now it’s turning a full-blown interop protocol. the possibilities here are kind of mind blowing.

🚀 1/ Exciting update for all Celenium users on the @CelestiaOrg Network! We've integrated @keplrwallet into Celenium 1.10, making it easier than ever to manage and send Blobs directly from the #Celenium interface. #KeplrWallet #Celestia celenium.io
This will be a hugely underrated unlock, that will give Cosmos chains the ability to have user programmability without needing to enshrine a smart contract VM to Cosmos chains. forum.celestia.org/t/achieving-ba…

I feel a paternal level responsibility to support the founders building stuff on Celestia as if they were my own projects 🙏
Proof of Cross Touch. Between legends @musalbas x @ilblackdragon🤝
Forma will also be the first rollup on Celestia with TIA as the native gas token and currency for NFTs.
Announcing Forma 🎭, the sovereign network for onchain creations built on @AstriaOrg with @CelestiaOrg underneath ✨.

The top will be when there's peak public hatred against cryptocurrency, NFTs, etc, as being a massive grift, especially from gamers

hello ser, @CelestiaOrg is building in public to juice tendermint with steroids github.com/celestiaorg/ce…+
We just tagged more namespaces on @CelestiaOrg, and have now labeled 89% of the total data posted! We noticed increased diversity in the data posted by sector. The Celestia userbase breaks down as: - 34% DeFi - 24% Gaming - 23% General Purpose
the reason naming things is the hardest problem "in computer science" is that it's not a computer science problem, it's a psychosocial summoning ceremony whose aim is to conjure exactly the desired concepts in other people's minds
the future is verified. the future is verified. the future is verified. the future is verified.

@billyrennekamp and I just hacked out a password circuit for this so you can send txs with just a password like brain wallets without the extra baggage of generating a key 🫠 do not recommend doing this but we built and tested the circuit in like 20 min what will you build?
Felt like hacking this weekend so I added ZK controlled accounts to the Cosmos-SDK using @gnark_team Required 0 changes to Accounts or Txs, just a new PubKey type. Can now control a @cosmos SDK account with an arbitrary ZK circuit. Got it all working and cleaned up:
Caldera Conduit Astria Initia Gelato Altlayer Stackr Dymension Snapchain
pump dot fun but for launching chains who’s doing that?
