All six nodes mitigated, mainnet and testnet. Heads up: nft -f and sysctl -w don't survive a reboot. Persist them (systemd oneshot for the nft table, /etc/sysctl.d for the sysctls) until you're booted on a patched kernel.
Validators! CVE-2026-98432 is patched in the linux kernel but not yet patched on ubuntu. Here's what you need to do if you're running ubuntu:

Best of five: 318 ms. Solana wins by 168 ms. Good thing I run the validators instead of racing them. ⚑
Can you beat Solana? πŸ‘€ Block finality: ~150 ms Your reflexes: ? Try it πŸ‘‡ beatsolana.vercel.app

Well deserved, Ohad. Learning in public is the fastest way to level up. πŸ”₯
This week’s Builders spotlight is on @Son_of_a_Pigeon Showing up hungry to learn and not afraid to let everyone see it. That’s how you grow fast, and it’s what the tribe has always been about. This is only the start, Ohad.

1/ Week 1 of @solanaturbine Q4 Builders: minted an SPL token and a Metaplex Core NFT on devnet, then updated, transferred and burned a Core asset. Code and every tx: github.com/Digitalenergyllc/…

2/ Token balances live in ATAs, not wallets, and the sender pays a new holder's ATA rent. A Core NFT is one account. Owner and update authority are separate roles: after the transfer, only the new owner could burn it.

3/ Burning returned 0.00077 SOL of the 0.00293 the asset held. Where it applies: digitalSOL, the LST I run, uses the same Token Program and mint layout. Its mint authority is the stake pool, so new digitalSOL is only minted when SOL is staked.

Per @Austin_Federa, @doublezero only slightly eases the pain of not colocating. The incentive to colocate stays. We run our validator from Singapore anyway. Geographic spread doesn't happen by accident. ⚑

Running validators taught us how the chain works. The next six weeks of Q4 Builders is about building on it. Day 1 done. ⚑
Locking in with a new wave of @solana Builders from around the world. Can’t wait to see what they ship over the next six weeks.

Agave v4.4.0-rc.0 is out, and @bw_solana says it's ready for minor adoption. Our testnet validator is already on 4.4 beta. Mainnet waits for the matching @jito_sol build, then the standby upgrades first. ⚑

1.5M holders of tokenized equities, trades finalized in a fraction of a second. Our validator votes on those blocks every slot. ⚑
1.5 million people now hold tokenized equities on Solana. A new all-time high, 5x since August.
