Intent bundles, Magic Actions, cranks, ephemeral accounts. Repo magicblock-labs/magicblock-validator.
devrels.xyz/a/361MagicBlock Validator v1.0 shipped 6 October 2026. It is the runtime for Ephemeral Rollups: delegate selected accounts, run work close to users, write results back to Solana. Post: magicblock.xyz/blog/validator-v1. Repo: magicblock-labs/magicblock-validator. X @magicblock. LinkedIn company/magicblock.
Intent bundles request a sequence (payment, another program, return control) from one rollup transaction. Magic Actions run in the same Solana transaction as a commit and revert with it if they fail. Callbacks bring the outcome back to the rollup. Cranks schedule recurring rollup work. Post-delegation actions start when an account lands on the rollup and can carry encrypted instructions. Magic ATAs let a sender pay a recipient on the rollup without first creating the recipient ATA on Solana. Ephemeral accounts are cheap to create, resize, and close; the storage deposit returns when they close.

SOL rebates for addresses with a large share of protocol activity are an early test of programmatic incentives in the tokenomics post, before a network token. Docs: docs.magicblock.gg. Older ER pieces stay: ephemeral rollups, real-time, engine examples.
