The first person that introduced me to HEX and Pulsechain years ago was @MisterAlex88 The first turnoff for me was when I heard PulseChain will duplicate all ERC-20 tokens. For what? Didn't look into it deep enough to realize there's a cult behind it

Exactly a year ago, a layer-1 blockchain called Kadena Chain announced its shutdown. Devs on the chain were still attending events a few days before the announcement, and the token $KDA was around the $100m market cap mark.
KADENA PUBLIC ANNOUNCEMENT We regret to announce that the Kadena organization is no longer able to continue business operations and will be ceasing all business activity and active maintenance of the Kadena blockchain immediately. We are tremendously grateful to everybody who has participated in this journey with us. We regret that because of market conditions we are unable to continue to promote and support the adoption of this unique decentralized offering. We have notified our staff that we will be ceasing operations. We are retaining a small team for handling this period of transition and wind-down. For any questions and concerns please contact [email protected]. The Kadena blockchain is not owned or operated by the company. As a thoroughly decentralized proof-of-work smart-contract blockchain, the network is operated by independent miners, while on-chain smart contracts and protocols are governed independently by their maintainers. For operational continuity, we will shortly provide a new binary that ensures uninterrupted operation without our involvement, and will be encouraging all node operators to upgrade as soon as possible. As for the KDA token and protocol, it will also continue in our absence. As noted in our latest token economic update (medium.com/kadena-io/clarifi…), over 566 million KDA remain to be distributed as mining rewards, continuing until 2139, while the platform emission has 83.7 million KDA coming out of lockup until November 2029. We are ready to engage with the Kadena community to discuss how we can aid the transition to community governance and maintenance. We will post updates on this as they become available. We are tremendously grateful to all team members, community members and partners who went on this journey with us. We wish everyone good fortune in their future endeavors.

This is a partnership I didn't expect But it's overall more potential users for apps in the Solana dApp store Solana Mobile keeps building
Solana Mobile’s first hardware expansion partner is @Ledger. The Seeker App, with the Solana dApp Store and wallet, will be integrated with Ledger’s new device. Seekers, meet Ledger Atom. ⚛️🧵

I was right this time again. September closed with $BTC being up 6.3%. Even without the Clarity Act October is usually green, hence the name "Uptober."
I was right on this one. $BTC is up +25% in August Even without the Clarity Act yet Maybe some retracement and a few drops from people taking profit, but I still expect September to be bullish.

Celebrity memecoin launches were part of the obstacle for the Clarity Act Good to see the market isn't really affected that much

Robinhood Chain is topping the 3M NetFlow table just a few months after launch @RobinhoodCrypto's chain didn't need a 5- or 3-year head start. Good projects still work. Devs need to build what people will use instead of adding blockchain to everything
30
Went from a peak of $222 to $2.3 in 90mins Failed launch?
I've seen tweets and conversations about the $LAPTOP token launching later today No matter how hyped up it becomes, remember what happened with solana:6p6xgHyF7AeE6TZkSmFsko444wqoP15icUSqi2jfGiPN, whales and airdrop recipients will eventually sell Joined early, use bots if necessary, and be ready to dump when needed

Another alt ETF probably won't make much difference. Most cash flows just go towards Bitcoin ETFs

It has been institutionalized at this point. Robinhood's chain was primarily for tokenized real-world assets (RWAs), but a huge fraction of transactions on the chain are coming from degens hoping to make quick bucks But it's not all bad, just that it attracts the wrong crowd.
I don’t think we will ever see the pve side of things in crypto again.

A new week. Hopefully it's a bullish week We go again

It would be interesting to get some data for @PayBox. - Users/Adoption - Volume It's been over a month since it was launched

You see screenshots like this and feel you could be the next on the leaderboard Remember to thread carefully 😅 The profit you see, are mostly coming from others who loss

All tokens in the top 20 by market cap are very popular except this one $RAIN is ~#12 on CoinGecko at $12B mcap $30M TVL 1.14T total supply, with more unlocks still coming I checked their whitepaper and still don't understand why they need that much supply, and the chart keeps pumping

Memecoins and the meme culture are still very much alive With the hype on the RobinHood Chain, the @ponsdotfamily's launchpad has made over $22m+ in fees this week alone @Pumpfun hasn't made that much in fees in a week since its peak season

In case you don't know how huge the hype on the @RobinhoodCrypto's chain is right now, this is the NetFlow from the past 1 year, and Robinhood Chain is currently at number 3. And it launched a few months ago All eyes on Robinhood for good projects amongst the memes and rugs

Huge jump on Uniswap v4's volume yesterday Saw the partnership announcement from @ponsdotfamily Hopefully it doesn't turn into the @Pumpfun and @Raydium situation on the long run

Remember this when next you contemplate whether to sell your memecoin bags or not 😅
Yet they refuse to learn. Most memecoins are just transfer of wealth to enrich those who issued it
