Crypto Big 3 Like many of you, I’ve been thinking about the purpose of cryptocurrency and how it can fundamentally change humanity. While it’s obvious that crypto can improve many existing processes—by removing middlemen or enabling complete transparency and traceability—it also

Today, Alex Alex Chepurnoy mentioned that he might implement POEM, a protocol developed by Dionysis Zindros , for the input-blocks PoW fork choice rule. He is currently working on a soft fork that will incorporate four cutting-edge protocols, making ERGO one of the fastest yet still

Man, your dick will go so hard just thinking about this elegant design. #Ergo will have sub-second input blocks, with block time and size adjustable by miners. It will use POEM to manage fork rules. It’s insanely scalable, and guess what? Miners will do all this work for free

Live from the Bitfinex Consensus VIP Evening! 🌟 An incredible night of networking, insights, and innovation at Cardinal Point, Hong Kong! A huge thank you to everyone joining us tonight, as well as to Consensus Hong Kong & CoinDesk for making this possible!

Bitcoin -> Smart contract chains -> High TPS chains -> Multiconsensus alliances -> Bitcoin Where are you on this trip? #Cardano #Ergo

Listed and sold under 1 hour! Is this the first 5070ti sold on decentralized platform and bought with crypto? Welcome to #Ergo

Charles Hoskinson Ergo Elon Musk There is ongoing work on input/ordering blocks Ergo soft-fork (similar to Leios in certain aspects), could be useful for other existing PoW chains (Doge, BCH) as well. Upgrade to Scala 3 is in the roadmap for sure, first we need to get rid of Scala 2.11 which was needed for

12 random thoughts on #ERGO 1 - Most Ergo developers don’t get the recognition they deserve, but that will change. Keep building open source 2 - Demurrage is one of the most underrated technologies; it’s really impressive 3 - Alex Chepurnoy is very humble, a rare quality in

Some more detail here: The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission Division of Corporation Finance has taken the position that solo and pool (types of so-called proof-of-work) mining activities are not considered securities transactions. As it relates to the Howey Test, the thinking here is that miners are not

Justin Bons Sean | Freedom Money Seriously, speed is not a problem in 2025. It’s already clear that most blockchains, including “dino coins,” have a path to be fast and decentralized. The research is done—it’s now a matter of implementation. So what’s next? The real issue in the blockchain trilemma is

I'm very excited about the development of #ERGO sub-blocks. Let me to explain: The concept of sub-blocks is based on IOG's parallel POW research (eprint.iacr.org/2023/1663.pdf), combined with ERGO engineering. Currently, ERGO has a 2-minute block time but after the implementation of

This is what excites me about #ERGO. People have completely misplaced priorities. Hard-capped supply? -Never heard of it! Keeping inflation below the average USD inflation rate of 2.46%? -Who cares, give more yield! The crazy money-printing era will end. Demurrage time is

#Cardano Fam, did you know that Alex Alex Chepurnoy is a big fan of Hydra? More to that, Hydra integrates smoothly with #ERGO. It looks feasible to deploy cross-chain Cardano–Ergo Hydra infrastructure. Should we run the next Doom tournament multichain? If you're interested in

Fun fact for #ERGO community: Kushti is essentially rolling out Leios update for ERGO while also working on 6.0 client. Just to give you an idea of how valuable Alex truly is...

Ergo Appkit in Scala is incredible quality. Ergo Appkit (Fleet) in TypeScript is also high quality. Both are based on object oriented fluent builder patterns. Best written tooling I seen across several blockchains.

#ERGO 6.0 soft fork has been supported by 92.97% of miners and is now undergoing activation on the mainnet. This colossal engineering effort, two years in the making, opens the door to major innovations such as sub-second blocks, Sigmachains, decentralised mining via

The two biggest drawbacks for #Ergo DeFi are: -Slow block times -Lack of a cost-efficient USD pegged stablecoin Two other drawbacks, less critical but still relevant, are: -Lack of a quality lending platform with liquidations -Lack of a quality one-stop platform for ecosystem
