Monthly Sprinkle of Magic: November

Welcome to your November update.

November moved fast. We kicked off our first Hacker House, shipped major upgrades to Ephemeral Rollups, dropped new tools for builders, and celebrated the momentum of teams building real-time experiences on Solana. It was a month defined by motion, by products landing in developers' hands, and by the energy of a community that builds without slowing down.

Here is everything you might have missed.

‍

Build Everything Onchain

We released a new video celebrating our mission to build everything onchain. It highlights use cases that only come alive on Solana with Ephemeral Rollups, including onchain MMORPGs, real-time perp DEXs, private AI, DePIN orchestration, and tap-to-trade.

Ten Teams, Ten Days, One Mission

Our Hacker House kicked off on the 28th of November with 10 teams gathering for ten days of focused building in Dubai. Ambitious projects across gaming, decentralised AI, exchange primitives, and tap-to-trade are all taking shape under one roof. We will be showcasing daily progress on X, so keep an eye out for what this crew ships next.

Pricing Simulator: See Your Savings Before You Build

We released a pricing simulator that helps developers compare costs and understand how much they can save when they scale on Solana with Ephemeral Rollups. It gives builders a clearer path to estimating real-time workloads and planning their architecture with confidence.

Magic Actions Are Live

Magic Actions allow developers to automatically execute Solana transactions within an Ephemeral Rollup. You can think of them as a mechanism to schedule transactions between an Ephemeral Rollup and Solana. They bring automation and atomicity together, letting you commit state, mint rewards, trigger logic, chain programs, and branch execution paths the moment rollup state updates.

Fair Randomness at Zero Cost

Verifiable randomness is now free on Ephemeral Rollups. This unlocks real-time games and applications that rely on fair randomness without adding cost or friction. Our latest blog breaks down what this means for builders and how to integrate it into your app.
