Monthly Wrap-up: February 2026

Each month, this roundup collects the news from across Livepeer: the protocol, the teams funded by the community treasury, and the people building on the network.
In February, Sidestream's Protocol R&D team took over triage of security reports and ran its first protocol update, and the Cloud SPE began testing real-time AI video jobs in three regions.
- Protocol R&D takes over security triage. Sidestream now runs the Immunefi bug report pipeline, and ran its first protocol update under a new checklist with the Security Committee.
- Cloud SPE starts live performance tests. Real-time AI video jobs are being tested in three regions, with results on a second Grafana dashboard.
- Explorer maintenance moves into its 60-day maintenance period. The core work is done, with contribution and maintainer guides added.
- Transformation SPE closes with a retrospective.
What's next
- The Cloud SPE: moving from alpha infrastructure to production APIs and SLA measurement.
Funded teams can get their news into next month's roundup by posting their monthly update in their proposal's forum thread.
