Timeboost is now live on Arbitrum One and Nova! This new transaction ordering policy allows users to bid for express lane access, which provides faster transaction inclusion while maintaining Arbitrum a private mempool. Timeboost brings multiple benefits to the Arbitrum ecosystem: - Reduces spam & network congestion by discouraging wasteful latency races - Creates a new potential revenue stream for the Arbitrum DAO - Protects users from front-running and sandwich attacks thanks to the private mempool We're excited about what this unlocks for builders and users across the ecosystem!

Big News from the Arbitrum ecosystem! We're thrilled to share that Converge—a groundbreaking new chain for onchain finance and Real World Assets (RWAs) built by Ethena Labs and Securitize—will be deployed as an Arbitrum chain. Pushing the boundaries of what's possible onchain has always been at the heart of Arbitrum's mission. Working with Converge represents a major leap forward in innovation across our ecosystem. To kick things off: - Converge will implement Stylus, enabling builders to write smart contracts in Solidity, Rust, C, and C++. - They'll also leverage Arbitrum’s native 100ms block times, aiming for 50ms by year-end With the Universal Intents Engine in development, Converge's integration will accelerate liquidity, attract developer mindshare, and strengthen the broader network of interconnected Arbitrum chains. Let’s build together!

Ethereum interoperability should be easily accessible to everyone who wants to adopt it on their apps. We're accelerating interop by making it effortless for builders to plug in. The Universal Intents Engine will be designed for seamless adoption by any wallet provider or app—no heavy integration, no friction. Check out our blog below and learn how we're collaborating with many teams to unify Arbitrum and Ethereum. 👇 https://lnkd.in/ez8abSBJ

This week, I did a presentation for the epf on validator architecture. Validator clients are key to ethereum protocol and perform the duties to secure the blockchain. To participate as a solo staker ( similar to a miner in Bitcoin) you need to run 3 softwares, a validator client , a beacon node, and an execution client. Running the 3 softwares with an activated validator key allows you to participate as an ethereum equivalent to a miner. In my video I discuss at a high level the software architecture for the validator client I work on. Project: https://lnkd.in/ex3_xTJr You can read about it here epf.wiki/#/eps/day20 and watch
