Research and deep dives
Technical explorations from our team across Solana, cryptography, and infrastructure.
Claire Fan Accelerating u128 Math with Libcalls and JIT Intrinsics
How custom libcalls and JIT intrinsics deliver 2x faster u128 multiplication on Solana.
Dean Little Accelerating the SVM with JIT Intrinsics
Unlocking the native performance of x86 without breaking the BPF ISA.
Claire Fan sBPF Linker BP Talk
Deep dive into the sBPF linker talk from Breakpoint 2025.
Leonardo Donatacci Beethoven: Composable DeFi in a Single Line of Code
New DeFi protocols launch faster than applications can integrate them. Beethoven inverts this by making protocols integrate themselves.
Leonardo Donatacci Why Security Tokens Can't Trade on Solana DEXs (And How to Change That)
Transfer hooks broke composability by coupling compliance with transfers. Token ACL decouples them by moving enforcement to the access layer.
Leonardo Donatacci Why Your Solana App Needs a Companion App
Wallets can't show your application-specific state. The companion app pattern lets you own the interface while delegating signing to existing wallets.
Leonardo Donatacci What Happens at the Entrypoint
Discovering the C ABI boundary, flat memory layout, and syscall conventions underneath every Solana program.
