Pinned Algorand protocol development and ecosystem growth are now under one roof. Algorand Foundation ( @AlgoFoundation ) and Algorand Technologies have come to a strategic agreement to unify ecosystem operations. This agreement creates a unified powerhouse for blockchain innovation
On this day 7 years ago, we produced block 0 on Algorand. 62 million blocks later, we're still running. No hitches, no downtime, not once. Here's to the next 7.
Algorand reposted The German Federal Foreign Office / @GermanyDiplo and @PoliSync piloted blockchain-based USDC aid payments to Damascus, Syria, through @HesabPay_ , using Algorand as the settlement layer. Results from the pilot: • Up to 73% lower transaction costs • Payments were 42x faster •
The United Nations Development Programme / @UNDP has launched the Blockchain Advisory Group, a body of 26 organisations from across the blockchain ecosystem. Algorand, through @AlgoFoundation , is proud to be a founding member alongside the Ethereum Foundation, Stellar
Only 2 blockchains in the entire industry have earned an A-Grade on the Quantum Threat Tracker from @tectonicxyz . Algorand is one of them. We've been building for this since day one.
0 downtime since launch. Billions of transactions processed. Thousands of nodes running around the world. Dozens of major protocol upgrades shipped, including P2P networking, dynamic block times, and post-quantum cryptography. Reliability is everything.
