A blockchain can execute a smart contract correctly and still have a resource accounting problem. @Concordium Node 10.0.12 was released on October 2, it introduced runtime metering for copy operations in the WebAssembly interpreter, preventing operations that previously consumed resources without incurring an energy cost. Why does this matter? Smart contracts run on infrastructure maintained by network nodes. If an operation consumes computational resources but its cost isn't reflected in the energy charged, the accounting system can underestimate the work being performed. That creates a gap between resource consumption and economic cost, closing that gap matters for protecting node resources and keeping execution costs aligned with the work contracts perform. The bigger lesson is that blockchain security isn't only about preventing malicious transactions, It's also about ensuring that the cost of computation is accounted for properly. Reliable infrastructure depends on getting the small details right. Visit concordium.com for more information

The next big problem in AI won’t be whether agents can transact, It’ll be whether they can trust each other. Imagine two autonomous agents negotiating a deal, agreeing on terms, and settling payment without a human approving every step. Who authorized them,what are they allowed to do,what happens if the conditions change? Identity isn’t just about knowing who a human is, it can become the foundation for knowing which agent is acting, who stands behind it, and what that agent is actually authorized to do. Agent-to-agent commerce needs more than wallets,it needs accountability. And that’s a much bigger story. Concordium.com will explain better. Join our community and get connected.
