Rialo Points are now live! We're introducing a new way to recognize the people who build, test and participate across the Rialo ecosystem. Users will be rewarded with 20 Rialo Points upon sign in. Early ecosystem contributors and existing community roles will also receive retroactive rewards, and existing roles will continue to carry additional benefits as the system evolves. This is only the start. More ways to earn Points are coming, alongside new ways to use them across Rialo. Sign in at playground.rialo.io and connect your wallet to receive your first 20 Rialo Points. Ready to put those Points to work? Agent Grand Prix is returning, and this time you won't just be watching. Get ready for Rialo Predict!

⚠️ Scam warning We’ve identified a fake Rialo website appearing in Google search results, as well as a fake Discord server impersonating Rialo. Do NOT connect your wallet, sign transactions, or enter personal information. Always verify through official Rialo channels.

Many AI infrastructure debates right now are about building more compute. Almost none of it is about if we are using the compute we already have well. I wrote about induced demand, layoffs, and why the API key is the new corporate card for @YellowMedia_HQ yellow.com/opinion/just-one-…

One year of Rialo. What started with around a handful of people has grown into a global community that shares our mission to build a smart blockchain network for real financial workflows. Here is who we are now, building the infrastructure for neofinance. Traditional blockchain systems bolt compliance on after the fact, which locks a lot of regulated activity out of onchain opportunity. Rialo builds the rules, logic, and execution into a system that carries them out, so compliance, privacy and automation become part of the infrastructure itself rather than something layered on top. Today, blockchain-enabled financial applications require stitching together bridges, oracles, bots, and privacy middleware, then maintaining all of it. We built those functions into the network itself. Over the past year, Rialo became the first network with:  • User-customizable data feeds • In-protocol API calls • User-customizable interoperability • Configurable privacy We've also hit milestones that demonstrate that Rialo’s simplified architecture can achieve superior performance: • 600k+ TPS • 200ms finality • 50ms block times We want to thank our builder community around the world - the individuals who hosted regional calls, translated content, welcomed new members and created things on Rialo that solve real world problems. Our Builder's Hub, Shark Tank and Agent Grand Prix became the stages where hundreds of people showed up to create, test and build. And thanks to our partners and investors for their continued confidence in us. @PanteraCapital, @cbventures, @variantfund, @hashed_official, @mirana, @Mysten_Labs, @fabric_vc, @flowdesk_co, and others who backed Subzero Labs and the mission of Rialo early. Our focus for year two is specific: institutional credit, agentic commerce, and building the infrastructure for neofinance - bringing enablement, programmability and governance to real-world financial systems. Year one was the foundation. Year two is where we build on it. Get Real. Get Rialo.
