Previously: Xi'an Milestone 1 went to a vote, community node runners took over from decommissioned Foundation seeds, and validator fees started climbing post-subsidy.
It was the week the handover got real. Flightofthefox's first Xi'an milestone passed with near-unanimous support, but the vote also reopened a raw argument about how the community should be funding million-XRD projects. The dev room was unusually busy as Foxy walked everyone through a redesigned Hyperscale that throws out most of the old Cerberus plan, and a fresh RadixTalk proposal to rebuild Root Finance V2 started collecting reactions.

Foxy's Xi'an vote passes overwhelmingly
Adam and Martin flagged the near-unanimous community approval of flightofthefox's first Xi'an milestone as possibly the strongest super-majority the room has seen. The vote was called a formality, though questions lingered about whether the ~$50k USD in XRD has actually been sent.

Procurement debate erupts over single-bid funding
Phil Gibson argued a no-RFP, no-credential-check grant of roughly $300k is financially immature; Adam, avaunt, austin, Markus, James and others pushed back, saying the Foundation had searched for months, Foxy is essentially the only viable builder, and the proposal is milestone-gated. Phil conceded the point but asked the room to formalise a procurement framework before the next big vote.

Hyperscale-rs supersedes the old Cerberus design
flightofthefox explained that Cerberus was never a finished design and that Hyperscale-rs has thrown out most of the original Hyperscale plan while preserving the dream of atomic cross-shard commitment. He walked the room through a beacon chain that tracks shards, stake and committees without touching transactions, using Prefix Consensus and VRF sortitions to scale.

Zombie project? Builders push back
Darkferri and a couple of others asked whether Radix is a zombie project. The room pushed back: LINUXX.xrd pointed at Fox actively coding Xi'an, the RAC working on the DAO transition, and Caper shipping; Seböööl argued Xi'an is the community's only path back to relevance. The thread stayed civil but the underlying anxiety didn't go away.

projectShift cross-posted RAC-channel updates on the Stokenet migration (nearly done) and the Olympia Explorer wind-down. The council continues to keep the community looped in on the Foundation-to-DAO transition as the May 30 Explorer deadline approaches.

Kept the main chat pointed at the RAC's working notes — Stokenet migration status, the Olympia Explorer shutdown schedule, and the warning that the new shutdown window is much shorter than members expect.

Warned the room that DMs offering 'help' with the Radix Wallet dashboard were scams and laid out the cleanest ETH-to-XRD path via Astrolescent or Hyperlane, then swapping hETH for XRD on ShardSpace.
“Yes but it will then probably extend to other "helpful" tips like clicking on this link”

Caught a likely token-decimals issue on Ociswap by asking which token Jackie Dev was trying to add liquidity for, the kind of small intervention that keeps dApp launches from going sideways.
Haftanın sorusu
“What is the simplest way to buy Radix with Ethereum?”
Bridge ETH to Radix via Astrolescent or Hyperlane Nexus (USDC is recommended because hETH liquidity is thin), then swap for XRD on ShardSpace.

Haftanın tartışması — Procurement process for funding Xi'an
Bir taraf
Phil Gibson: a single-bid, no-RFP, no-credential-check grant of ~$300k is governance immaturity and creates single-point-of-failure risk if Foxy can't deliver.
Diğer taraf
Adam, avaunt, austin and others: the Foundation searched for months and there are no other realistic bidders; the proposal is milestone-gated and Foxy offered a public competing-bid window, so process-for-process's-sake would have delayed the only game in town
open — Phil conceded the Foxy vote but asked the room to formalise an RFP framework before the next big proposal.

flightofthefox spent a long Saturday session walking the room through Hyperscale-rs: a beacon chain that tracks shard topology and committees but never touches transactions, with Prefix Consensus and VRF sortitions handling the scaling work.

Beacon chain — A coordinator chain in a sharded network that tracks which shards exist, the active committees, stake pools and validator jailing — without actually processing
CDP (collateralised debt position) — A lending market where you lock up one asset as collateral to borrow another, so you can get liquidity without selling — Weft Finance is the live example on Rad
RFP (request for proposals) — A formal ask for competing bids before the community commits XRD to a project — the process the procurement debate was about.
