Nirvana Labs February 2026 Roundup
February was Infra IRL.
We stepped out from dashboards and into rooftops, warehouses, and builder nights, bringing performance-first cloud into real conversations with real operators.
Here’s what moved.
🇭🇰 Consensus Hong Kong — RWA Night
We co-hosted the RWAfi: RAW Skyline Mixer with Pharos and partners during Consensus week.
It’s a wrap at @consensus_hk 🇭🇰✨

Big thanks to everyone who came through to the RWA HK Skyline Mixer with our frens @pharos_network.
If we didn’t get to chat (or you just want to go deeper), DM us or grab time.
Let’s keep building ⚡

🇺🇸 ETHDenver — Infra x DeFi Builders Night
Then we brought Infra IRL to Denver.
Together with Goldsky and Orbs, we hosted Infra x DeFi Builders Night at Number Thirty Eight.
Cloud. RPCs. Indexing. L3. Nodes.
The layers that actually make blockchain work.
That’s a wrap on Infra x DeFi Builders Night @EthereumDenver 🦄

We also participated in the “DeFi Infrastructure Is The Product” panel at the Unofficial Solana Mini Summit during ETHDenver — diving into why infra is no longer just backend plumbing, but the actual competitive edge for modern DeFi teams.
The best DeFi teams are building infrastructure that others can build on. Discover how during the ‘DeFi Infrastructure IS the Product’ panel at the Unofficial Solana Mini Summit at ETHDenver.

Bare Metal vs Nirvana
We’re often asked:
“Why not just run on bare metal?” So we broke it down especially on storage.
Raw NVMe is fast — but speed alone doesn’t eliminate downtime, corruption risk, resync pain, or scaling friction. Optimizing a single machine is not the same as optimizing the full system.
We wrote a short breakdown on where bare metal works, where it quietly fails, and how ABS approaches it differently.
A lot of people have been asking us:

Bare metal vs cloud… which one should you choose?
Cloud was invented to avoid managing hardware.
Now many blockchain systems are back to running physical servers again. Why? 🧵👇 1/ pic.twitter.com/5H5sgFGcfc
Product Momentum - ABS
While we were on the road, ABS kept doing its thing.
A quick recap of Accelerated Block Storage (ABS):
- 20K sustained baseline IOPS
- up to 600K burst
- sub-ms latency
- flat pricing at $0.0935 / GB-month
- scales 32GB → 4PB
Built for always-on workloads. No credits. No throttling.
Some clients are moving out of POC soon and we’ll be sharing results shortly. A full benchmarking report is on the way. Stay tuned.
Data never stops growing.
Your storage should keep up, in speed and size.
