The Radix Foundation published its report on the 31 August defect, KuCoin reopened XRD trading, and the engine source shows where the check was missing.

Radix mainnet restarted on 11 September running the Eagle Ray fix. Exchanges have not reopened XRD, and third-party records still carry the halt.

The fix for the bug that stopped Radix is written and about to be rehearsed on the test network. The DAO’s incorporation went ahead regardless.

A rebuilt Stokenet caught up on three protocol updates in under two hours, because what gates an update is a stake threshold rather than a date.

The largest builder on Radix is winding down but leaving its code running, and a validator changed hands in a single transaction that could not half-complete.

Radix accounts gained a third signature scheme, one built to survive quantum computers, and the DAO began recording a checkable fingerprint of every governance document.

The Rust rebuild finished its first milestone, the execution engine that sits on top of it became public code, and Scrypto survives the change.

A sharded Radix network now runs in a browser tab, and Hyperscale will get a purpose-built virtual machine rather than reusing the Radix Engine.

Hyperscale's design was set against the standard list of sharding problems and answered point by point, and the Foundation put the DAO about a month out.

The consensus half of the Rust rebuild is essentially built and formally verified, and after a week of worry, candidates began standing for the council.

Everything that moved this week was built by the community: the Rust rebuild of Radix's scaling design, a Rust SDK, and Hookah going open source.

A month after the Foundation published the Hyperscale code, its 500,000 transactions-per-second result is something anyone can rebuild and check.

The Foundation invited outside operators to take over three services it runs itself, and the elected council that will oversee the process took its seat.
