🤫 Elusiv SDK Launches on Mainnet

Elusiv, whose mission is to make privacy a fundamental capability on Solana, announced the launch of the Elusiv SDK (public beta) on Mainnet!

The Elusiv SDK empowers developers to build privacy-preserving applications without having to reason through complex cryptography.

This first version enables developers to integrate private sending functions for wallets and payment solutions that handle simple on-chain transactions. Future SDK releases will be updated in parallel with the Elusiv WebApp.

Elusiv is incentivizing developers to build on the platform by partnering with the Encode Summer Solana Hackathon and offering a $1500 USDC SuperteamDAO Bounty.

⏰ Clockwork Integrates Pyth Price Feeds as Automations Trigger

Clockwork has integrated Pyth Network’s high-speed price feeds as a trigger condition for Clockwork automations.

Developers use Clockwork to schedule transactions and automate programs without relying on centralized infrastructure or web2 scheduling tools.

By using real-time market data to automate smart contracts, developers can build out tools like:

• Stop-loss & take-profit orders

• DeFi protection by auto-repaying outstanding loans

• Fully on-chain, autonomous liquidation engines.

Solfate - Chase Barker

The Head of Developer Ecosystem at Solana Foundation, Chase Barker, joins to share thoughts on blockchain developers in the community and his thoughts about what can be done to get more quality Solana developers.

He shares how the idea of chewing glass has shifted from it nearly being a requirement to build on Solana, to now where a smaller hand full of people are chewing glass.
