Rest in peace, Rhett. We will miss you a lot 🙏
We recently lost a great man, team member, and loyal friend of five years at Hydrogen Labs. Those active in the crypto industry and conference circuit these past few years, especially in the @fuel_network and @monad ecosystems, likely crossed paths with Rhett Bernstein (זכרונו לברכה, may his memory be a blessing). Rhett was nothing short of a role model on how to treat people with kindness, cheer and respect. Everyone he met around the world was left with a positive and memorable impact in their lives from knowing him.

This is what we've been cooking at Magma, huge development:
First staking vaults outside of Lido.
Designed ground up for Monad.
No over-collaterlization.
40 leading validators participating day one.
Introducing gVaults: Staking vaults built for @Monad.
For the first time ever, liquid staking users on Monad can have their own validator.
gVaults offer an institutional on ramp to the liquid staking ecosystem.
Here’s how it works.

Magma goes live tomorrow.
4 audits from best of breed security firms, fully battle tested.
Partnered with the strongest builders and validators on Monad.
Backed by leading VCs.
We’ve been here since the early days- 30 months of grinding to bring this to life. Let’s run it.
Excited for this announcement! We are putting so much on the table for Monad day 1. A lot of hard work into this one @Diyahir @0xMeir
I remember when we were at Staking Summit Dubai 2025, this was the most requested feature by far.
Some of the key features:
- gVault depositors are isolated from the slashing that could occur within CoreVault. Losses impacting CoreVault do not propagate to gVault positions.
- gVault users remain exposed only to the risk of the specific validator(s) they choose inside gVault.
Introducing gVAULTS — the first ever staking vaults on Monad, built by Magma.
Stake directly with the validator of your choice and earn fungible gMON — built for DeFi power users and institutional precision.

Excited to share this announcement. We’ve built @MagmaStaking what is, as far as I know, the first staking vaults implementation outside of Ethereum which isolates validator risk per vault. Our implementation is built completely from scratch, and we created the design from first-principles specifically for the @Monad ecosystem.
We’ve been getting product feedback from validators, funds, and institutions for a long time, and staking vaults are one of the most requested features. Really excited to bring this innovation, it’s been a lot of difficult dev work with @ferrodri_dev and @Diyahir given the short timelines but we managed to pull it off.
We can now definitively state that Magma has the most compliant, controlled and technically sophisticated staking smart contracts on Monad. The second-order effects of this feature will play out in our favor when institutions begin to participate on-chain.

Shoutout to our BD team, you need 25 hours in a day and a friend list bigger than LinkedIn to outperform them, not possible
Team appreciation Tuesday.
Relationship building has been one of Magma’s strong suits.
Our bd team is in the trenches everyday, building one of the strongest communities in the ecosystem.
Shoutout to the guys who have helped build the foundation, enabling us to build the leading lst on Monad, gMON.@yakkiba @JerryPPB @Rhettbernstein @longpratas

Over the last two years, we’ve taken pride in building deep relationships with some of the strongest validators in the ecosystem to support @MagmaStaking
Some of these validators include @Alchemy @BlockdaemonHQ @Figment_io @a41_allforone @BlockscapeLab @chainlayerio @ChorusOne @dsrvlabs @everstake_pool @Finoa_io @Kiln_finance @P2Pvalidator @SimplyStaking @staking4all @ValidationCloud and a litany of others that we have already and continue to onboard.
These relationships go beyond shared values or a belief in where the space is heading as they’re grounded in real conviction about what we’re building with Magma and the impact it can have within the Monad ecosystem.
As we get ready to launch our LST gMON, that foundation matters more than ever. The trust, alignment, and collaboration we’ve built with our cohort of validators are the bedrock of the product and the reason we’re ready to scale with confidence.

MEV sidecar @MagmaStaking has been achieved internally. Powered by the fastest block engine in crypto.
Searcher API ✅ -> Block Engine ✅ -> Sidecar 🔜
Ferrodri retweeted
Searcher -> Block Engine (1-10ms) -> Validator
Our @MagmaStaking MEV flow on Monad consists of 1 step between opportunity and validator, the Block Engine where txs are simulated and ordered in mere milliseconds. This is the lowest latency architecture practically feasible.
Locked in 💻
Our devs @MagmaStaking have been working 7 days a week getting our v2 contracts ready for audit. Really proud of the features we were able to deliver, they will offer unique advantages on @monad.
