Breakpoint, whether you are in London or not
Breakpoint from home started as a way to follow Solana Breakpoint 2026 without being in London. It lists what gets announced, next to the schedule, so you can keep up from a second screen or catch up later. It also carries the venue map and the side events for people who are there.
How a card gets here
- A collector checks news sites, company blogs and press-release wires every few minutes. When a headline names a company and says what it launched, added or announced, it publishes a card with the source headline and a link. Other stories wait until someone checks them, and stories about prices and markets are left out.
- A clean-up pass then rewrites the card into one plain sentence and gives it a category and a status. This pass uses an AI model, and cards are corrected by hand when it gets something wrong.
- When a card can be matched to a talk, it is linked from that talk in the schedule.
A card that still shows Source headline, not checked yet has only been through the first step. None are in that state right now.
What the status means
- Available now
- Available now: you can use it today.
- Date given
- Not out yet, but a date or quarter was given.
- Only promised
- Announced with no date.
The status is there because a lot of conference news is a promise. It says how real the thing is today, according to the source.
How the biggest are picked
Each announcement gets 20 points if it is rated major and 10 if it is rated notable, plus one point for every separate news outlet that covered it (up to 15) and one for every 100 reposts of the company's post on X (up to 5). The rating comes from the AI clean-up pass, which follows written rules about who announced it, whether it is available now or only promised and whether it is new, and it can be changed by hand; cards pinned by hand always come first.
An outlet is counted once however many links it has, and links through Google News count under the publisher the collector recorded when it read them. Coverage shows on a card from 3 outlets. The X numbers exist only for announcements first posted on X, and they are only as recent as the last time the collector saw the post.
Major marks an announcement rated major. On the home page the newest checked announcement takes the top slot, except that a major one stays there for 60 minutes after it was published unless a newer major one arrives. A card that has not been checked yet is listed, but it never takes the top slot, is never marked as breaking and is not ranked among the biggest.
Not on the agenda means the announcement was made during Breakpoint by a company that has no talk on the published agenda. It says nothing about how important the news is.
How fresh it is
A card usually appears within minutes of the first article or press release. Pages check for new cards every minute while they are open, and offer them without reloading; the time on each list is when your page last did that. New cards were last collected from the news sources .
Something said on stage that nobody has written up yet will not be here until someone does. Cards are written fast and can contain mistakes, so read the source before acting on anything.
