Our goal has always been to be the go-to blockchain node platform across any chain and environment. Today, that includes the nodes you run on your own hardware. Running your own Ethereum infrastructure should be the basic right of every individual and household. Nodes should be easy. The catch? Self-hosting has always meant complexity. Manual setup, client updates, nodes falling out of sync, moni
In this second week of #100daysofsolana , i got got introduced with the concept of account . I learned it by contrasting with the database of web2 . However , i am aware that Solana's account model is not replacement for web2 database, rather it's solving a different problem: storing state in a system where no single entity has control, reads are public, and writes require cryptographic authoriz
A LinkedIn recruiter pitched me a remote "Software Engineer at a DEX" project this week. Reasonable comp range, tech stack squarely in my wheelhouse. After a couple of friendly exchanges, she asked me to "review the codebase before the technical interview" and sent me a GitHub repo link plus a Calendly invite for the call. The repo was malware.

This is made up of two things: a public key and
TL;DR: I built ChessDada — a free multiplayer chess platform inspired by old Yahoo Chess. No signup, no download, just instant browser-based chess. Built with Node.js, Socket.IO, and chess.js. Modern chess sites are bloated. Chess.com forces you through signup. Lichess defaults to account creation. The "5-second click and play" experience that made Yahoo Chess legendary in the 2000s is essentially
Key Takeaways Multichain user journeys span social discovery, multiple chains, and offchain touchpoints so analytics tools must unify all data sources into a single user profile to avoid making decisions on structurally incomplete information. Web3 conversion cycles are far shorter than Web2 with users moving from first touch to transaction within a single session, making real-time attributi
