ICYMI, ProbeLab has launched a brand new website to showcase the metrics we're publishing for @ipfs.tech, @ethereum.bsky.social, @filecoin.bsky.social, @polkadot.bsky.social, Gnosis, Celestia, Optimism, Base, Avail, with several more coming soon! Head to: probelab.io to see what's new!

A lot happened in content addressing in 2025. Like, a lot. The IPFS Foundation wrote up a summary for your enjoyment! ipfsfoundation.org/content-addr...

You can finally self-host IPFS at home 🏠✨ Major updates to Kubo, Boxo, and Helia. DHT Provide Sweep, AutoTLS, HTTP retrieval. Here's everything we shipped in 2025: ipshipyard.com/blog/2025-sh...

www.eurosky.social "This is the next era of social media—built in Europe, run on our cloud, ruled by our laws. Users choose the content. Businesses control their brand environment. People control the algorithms. Not Big Tech. Not ever."

Sup frens I have a DHT protocol now: www.iroh.computer/blog/lets-wr...

The ProbeLab team participates in FIL-rPGF Round 3 to showcase the extensive set of results that we've been producing for the Filecoin network. Thanks to @protocollabs.bsky.social @fil.org LotusPond Association for supporting this round. Check our extensive results at: probelab.io

We announced the new native Go FIPS 140-3 mode today! FIPS 140, like it or not, is often a requirement, and I was increasingly sad about large deployments replacing the Go crypto packages with non-memory safe cgo bindings. Go is now one of the easiest and most secure ways to build under FIPS 140.

I wish we had spaces to collaborate on technical work where being a jerk was just not allowed. Like, actual proper fearless moderation. Your reply starts with "No." on its own line? Two weeks ban. Learn to behave. You go on a tear about another participant? One year ban. No warning. Bye.

@dtrautwein.eu explains how to count nodes

Baselight is now open for everyone! Come see structured data like you never have before.

New data drop from the ProbeLab team! We re-ran our Optimism Superchain composition analysis — and total nodes tripled since Nov 2024. Base leads the mainnet pack, Europe’s node share grows, and infra diversity widens. 📊✨ Full breakdown 👉 www.probelab.network/blog/optimis... #Superchain #OPStack

You’ve never seen blockchain data like this before, literally! For the first time ever, Baselight & @probelab.io are making onchain infrastructure insights public, so builders can monitor, analyze, and scale decentralized systems. Query @ethereum.bsky.social , @filecoin.io, Polkadot and more!

A pleasure to work with @yiannisbot.bsky.social, @dtrautwein.eu, and the @probelab.io team to enable analysis of unique blockchain and decentralised network data.

Testing concurrent programs can be difficult and error prone. We're experimenting with a new approach to try to make this easier and more reliable. Interested? Read more at go.dev/blog/synctest

If you've always wanted to dive into #p2p, now is the best time! One of my devs has prepared a 40+min detailed walkthrough of building a basic #rustlang p2p chat application: youtu.be/ogN_mBkWu7o?...

it‘s long, it‘s entertaining, it‘s full of knowledge, learn how @iroh.computer works youtu.be/AkHaIVuFHK4?...

Weekly Network Health Reports for the Filecoin DHT are now a thing - brought to you by @probelab.io! Reports live on probelab.io - latest one is here: probelab.io/filecoin/dht... - and are produced weekly on Mondays.

Super excited to share this! I'm starting a new journey leading an awesome team to offer alternatives to centralized authorities in games, digital identities, and CBDCs @randamu-labs.bsky.social! www.einpresswire.com/article/7619...

A lot of potential partners ask us @probelab.io how we crawl the networks. We don't keep it a secret, and the heart of it is @dtrautwein.eu's Nebula: github.com/dennis-tra/n.... It's open source, so you can run your own crawler, and it's also network agnostic. It can't get better than that!

Bluesky now has over 10 million users, and I was #22,085!

It may come as a surprise, but most @ethereum.bsky.social nodes are not on the big 3 cloud providers. Only 1003/8825 nodes are on AWS, 83/8825 on GCP, 50/8825 on Azure. You can read about it in our weekly reports on @probelab.io For this week's report on Ethereum: probelab.io/ethereum/dis...

I wrote up a blog post on our findings with scaling Go to 192 cores per machine and the limits we ran into with the Go runtime here: jazco.dev/2024/01/10/g... It was a really interesting problem to investigate and had us scratching our heads for a little bit but the performance gains are huge.

What happens if half of the network is down? In 90% of networks, or networked systems, this is a grand-scale disaster... but for IPFS it's a very different story. Find out what happens in a recent incident report published on the blog:
