wow, that was pretty easy to convert my staked sol in Helius to their lst with sanctum ☁️

.Helius is now

*checks notes*

the 69th validator on Solana

and this is without being in a single stake pool — all thanks to manlets who believe in the network

Must read for anyone developing on Solana

Blockhash errors suck.

These are the most common class of errors we see from Solana developers — especially in the past 2 months.

Here's how to prevent and fix them for good:

helius.dev/blog/how-to-de…

as a dev, i know a product has achieved pmf when i search my shell history for it. gg Helius

i run ESC + k + / heli

reflexively to find `export RPC...` instead of searching for RPC

really really really not a fan of how massive corporations and validator-as-a-service companies have so much stake on Solana

we need to decentralize much more

but setting up a validator could use some documentation

so we wrote a guide on it: helius.dev/blog/how-to-se…

1/ We are excited to announce that we have partnered with Helius's very own LST!

Introducing hSOL!

.Helius has grown a ton in the past few months

which by proxy means the Solana dev community has grown a ton

the fun part is that we've only shipped a small portion of what we're going to ship for the rest of the year

Solana apps are going to start feeling much better

you can now pay for dedicated RPC or Geyser nodes — in any region around the world — directly with crypto

getting a private node is as easy clicking a few buttons and transferring USDC

Solana devs are built different 😤

@SolPlay_Jonas chats with @Nick_pennie from @Heliuslabs to learn about their new solution for compression to make token distribution more affordable.

basically

you're really gonna wanna stake with Helius' validator, starting now

0% fees (and 0% MEV fees), so you keep all yield

main motivation is to improve network performance

go to your fav wallet -> stake -> type Helius

有闲着的SOL想质押的伙伴又多了一个新选项， Helius 开质押了,可以直接在常使用的钱包的原生质押处选择Helius进行质押,0费率, LFG!!

Solana teams

if you need a validator spun up — we (Helius) can help

Solana nodes are what we specialize in, DM us

I was pretty hard on Metaplex 🦾 a while ago, but I think the new Core standard is a good standard and deserves credit

look forward to seeing it develop more

we also have automatic DAS API support for it at Helius

once the congestion is solved, I sense NFT season coming back

This is how to stream live Solana token mints on a Next.js app using a Helius webhook in under 60 seconds 🫵⌛️

as a result, you must know how to test your stuff

especially in the context of smart contracts where you will bankrupt all of your users and go to jail

luckily, we wrote a huge guide on testing solana programs

read so I can afford a mega yacht please:

a lot of problems in software engineering arise from not writing perfect code

sadly, most of you are noobs and need tests to make sure things don't break after making changes

(including my co-founders)

this is unfortunate, but it is what it is
