Another week of burying our heads in hard work finally brings us the Cartesi Weekly Report—and this issue is even more celebratory 🐧

This week marks Linux’s 35th anniversary. How could we miss such an important day? We sent birthday wishes to the operating systems running on Cartesi machines, and our tweets expressed our feelings just as they should. Linus Torvalds released Linux in 1991 and called it “just a hobby,” but fortunately, the rest of the world doesn’t see it that way. Many members of the ecosystem joined in the celebrations, proud to be part of the big Linux family:

In “Throwback Thursday”: Linux has more than 35 years of battle-tested software history, yet DeFi has been repeating the wheel. We explain why we should stop re-inventing the wheel now and instead build DeFi on top of Linux. For details, see the referenced post:

This week, we’d like to give a special thanks to Alchemy. Cartesian João Garcia appreciates our team’s report on intermittent failures of the eth_estimateGas function on the OP Sepolia server. The report includes reproduction steps, A/B/C tests, and comparisons across different providers. Alchemy tracked down the issue, fixed it, and confirmed that the fix is effective.

Uttam from Alchemy praised their support as top-tier in the industry. A full discussion thread explains what excellent developer support looks like. We’re happy to recognize great practices:

This week’s theme is “set the tone from the start”: Cartesi’s infrastructure is built from the ground up, made for developers—providing more tools, more libraries, stronger programmability, and more powerful compute so developers can fully leverage these resources. If you missed it before, take a look at this short article:

If you haven’t celebrated Linux’s 35th anniversary yet, go celebrate it now! Read the full case to learn why DeFi needs Linux, and submit your questions on Discord: discord.gg/cartesi.

Next week, we’ll directly publish an ecosystem update blog—stay tuned. Have a great weekend!
