The Arweave protocol has been successfully operational for 5 years. Congratulations to the global community of builders who have progressed the protocol to where it is today! This is a truly monumental step for the long-term preservation of digital history.

Looking to expand our node dev crew. Excited about Arweave, decentralizing the web, and interested in Erlang/functional programming? Drop me a DM 🙂

Arweave 2.7.2 will be released soon. It brings an open, native mining pool, as well as tweaks to foster wider dispersion. We are offering grants for Arweave community members to start up mining pools and help test them. Up for it? Reach out 👇 5afguaemtbv.typeform.com/to/JSuXjZ54

Arweave 2.8 is here!⚡️ This major upgrade boosts efficiency, cuts costs for miners, and strengthens security. The future of the PermaWeb is brighter than ever.
