The wwPDB has reached a historic milestone, releasing 10,000 EMDB entries in a single year. The rate of release of 3DEM data to the public continues at an extraordinary pace, for the first time the wwPDB has seen the release of 10,000 entries from the EMDB <https://www.ebi.ac.uk/emdb/> in just a single year. To put this in context, in 2019 the EMDB stood at 10,000 entries in total, after 17 years of growth. Now in 2025 due to the current volume of data release, the archive has surpassed 50,000 total entries. This rapid growth is a testament to the hard work of the community which the wwPDB endeavors to support. It also highlights the ongoing challenge the community is facing with ever more data created requiring streamlined deposition, processing, curation, peer-review, and sustainable & scalable archiving practices. We are excited to continue to be part of structural biology history.
