alloy 2.0 very soon, and soon after that we're moving onto foundry 2.0 which will allow foundry to evolve into an SDK not dissimilarly from reth sdk which has enabled everyone in the ecosystem to customize and adapt foundry's internals to secure and improve their dev process

RELEASING RETH 2.0! Reth is now faster, smaller, and ready for the future of crypto infrastructure. Gigagas per second has not just been achieved, it's been blown out of the water. We've put in a ton of work in this, and we're incredibly proud to be sharing this with everyone.

We've added MPP / Tempo Wallet support to Foundry - out on latest nightly. - foundryup -n tempo - cast bn -r tempo - cast send erc20 <...> -r tempo --from `tempo wallet whoami --json-output | jq -r .wallet` (to be made less verbose) h/t @onbjerg @gndizzy @zerosnacks
with MPP we'll finally be able to ship high quality RPC URLs built-in Foundry w/o us having to subsidize as that's unsustainable so any user that has onboarded once to Tempo Wallet will be able to just use any paid RPC API w/o any additional configuration traces low latency

hiring to scale security eng at @tempo. come work with @samczsun, @gakonst, and many others smarter than me on: fuzzing and invariant testing autonomous bug hunting continuous security tooling agentic chaos engineering it's a weird, exciting time to move fast at the frontier.

Foundry has a new release candidate: v1.6.0-rc1! Highlights include: Osaka as default EVM hardfork, parallelized stateless fuzzing, configurable invariant check intervals, improved reentrancy detection and time-based invariant fuzzing. $ foundryup -i v1.6.0-rc1

mind: blown claude foundry fuzzing is very (, very) good, but claude foundry invariant testing is OP!!! same invariant as in the QT, but this time discovered via invariant tests - not targeted fuzzing (ofc oneshotted by claude) instead of trying to guess how the invariant breaks, claude wrote a generic handler that wraps all user-facing, state-changing functions and let the fuzzer do its thing adding another invariant is trivial, just write the invariant itself - no new repro logic needed seems like a step-function upgrade in how protocols are tested huge thanks to the legendary @gndizzy and all the giants building this unbelievable tech
fuzzing is all the talk since the yETH hack (at least in my mind) - @claudeai just wrote the perfect foundry fuzz test for me and uncovered an edge case an entire massive test suite missed the invariant is simple, `sum(trove debts) >= total_debt`, otherwise `total_debt` can go negative if all troves repay making it impossible to close the last trove screenshot of the fuzz test attached and link to the test in the first comment, for your convenience tell claude to fuzz yo code!

forge-std's v1.14.0 is out, the first release requiring ^0.8.13. github.com/foundry-rs/forge-… v1.13.0 is the last release with partial support for 0.6.*, 0.7.* and 0.8.* up to 0.8.13. github.com/foundry-rs/forge-…
Would limiting future versions of `forge-std` to ^0.8.13 compatibility work for you? Older versions of `forge-std` would of course remain available.

Looking for 3 Rust experts to add to the @tempo team. Once in a career opportunity to build the future of web payments. Criteria I am looking for (at least 1 of the 3): - systems/db background - strong EVM knowledge - specialisation e.g. compiler / security Ashby link below.

94% Yes, ^0.8.13 is fine!
0% I need >= 0.7.0
6% I need >= 0.6.2

Still looking for an incredible compiler engineer that is also a Rust expert that will help us fix Solidity with the Solar project. Cash equity. Anyone?
Devs plan to replace Solidity with a new language called Core Solidity. Sure, why focus on things like efficient struct packing, solving the stack-too-deep errors, or standardizing fixed point math libraries. Apparently what DeFi really needs is Hindley-Miller type inference:

You can just run individual foundry tools with one command and not wait for installing what you don't need s/o @gndizzy for baking this with me on slow fire

As stablecoins grow, so must our devtools. The easiest thing we could do in Foundry was to add some simple ERC20 convenience utilities. From an external contributor! Pick any of our open issues and join the club.

in our effort to improve Foundry's fuzzing capabilities, we've made the dictionary smarter by seeding it with literal values extracted from the source code! in practical terms: the fuzzer now tests high-signal values from the get-go, increasing the probability of finding bugs

Forge LSP is coming very soon, powered by Solar.

The hardest part about writing smart contracts is how bad the Solidity VSCode extension is. No refactoring, no automatic imports, useless autocomplete, go to definition hardly ever works, the tiniest syntax error breaks everything, and it regularly freezes & crashes. I miss Java

`forge fmt` is about to be re-released with `solar` support, which should make formatting faster (so you can do it on every save) & more reliable/customizable -- can i get any tough foundry repos to test?
