@DrFuture8000 @M8ze__ @2xnmore The value prop here is actually insane 👀 just wait til the rest of DeFi catches wind of @zephyr_org

@HydratedGoose @M8ze__ @2xnmore This app already exists... ya Jabroni youtu.be/F5WGHVkFzPY?si…

Name one coin under $100M market cap that you'd bet on quietly right now. No shilling. No moonboy energy. Just honest conviction. I'll RT the best ones with my honest take. AI RWA DeFi PRIVACY MEMECOIN Go 👇

@Ikebillion_ @PharosWatch @TokenBrice Great to see, just starting to dig into Pharos myself. Sounds like a much needed tool. Congrats and all the best with the role!

I'm joining Pharos as Growth & Comms Lead. Here's how it happened: In 2022, I lost my college funds to the LUNA crash. I wasn't reckless. I didn't ignore the risks. I just didn't have the right tools to see what was coming. Nobody was showing me the data behind the peg. Nobody was tracking the early warning signals. By the time the depeg happened, it was already too late. That loss sent me deep into stablecoin research. I became obsessed with understanding how stablecoins actually work, the collateral, the mechanisms, the risks hiding underneath the surface-level APYs. I started writing about it, building an audience around it, and consulting for protocols in the space. After using @PharosWatch for a while, I entered a creator contest they hosted. I wrote an article titled "How to Conduct DeFi Research Like a Pro" featuring three tools I genuinely use, DefiLlama, Stablewatch, and Pharos. I won. That article caught @TokenBrice's attention and showed him I understood what Pharos was building at a level deeper than most. Many conversations later, here we are. I'm proud to be joining Pharos as its Growth & Comms Lead, the platform I believe is building exactly what I wish existed before LUNA collapsed. Pharos tracks the safety, peg stability, and risk profile of stablecoins in real time. It is the early warning system the stablecoin market has needed for a long time. My job is to make sure the rest of Web3 knows it exists. If you're holding, lending, or building with stablecoins, we are creating a product you will use daily. If you have ever used our tools at Pharos, and you have questions or feedback to give? My DMs are always open. Let’s build this together.

@M8ze__ @2xnmore This would be the killer app ngl

@2xnmore If there was a PoW chain like BTC but private, with a stablecoin, that took a small percentage of block emissions from miners and paid stablecoin holders a yield every block that would be fucking sick! 🔥

Zephyr is deadly serious about scaling into broader DeFi. Going to be very interesting once Ethereum has access to those yield mechanics 👀

@DerilPana @oldmanwladder @zephyr_org interesting 👀

@HydratedGoose @oldmanwladder $ZSD Is awesome as an Anonymous stabledollar 2.5 years stability 1 : 1 with usd thanks to Djed rules that keep over collateralization at the @zephyr_org protocol back. $ZSD $ZEPH $ZRS $ZYS

one thing crypto still can't do: - untraceable stablecoin w/ $XMR-grade privacy - a peg that doesn't break - double-digit APY - yield that's paid in dollars, not a base token that only loses value - rails into broader DeFi (Eth/Uniswap etc.) anything even come close?

@zephyr_org @phtevenstrong @TaikiMaeda2 have you guys seen the yield engine that Zephyr has?

❯❯ Ethena's $sUSDe: 37% → 3.5% A funding-rate model that breaks when you need it most_ $ZYS doesn't care what funding rates do: ▦ Yield from PoW block rewards. ▦ Users buy in = the yield goes up. ▦ Users leave = your share goes up. ➡️Our flywheel works. $ZEPH 🧵

@oldmanwladder @zephyr_org nothing else like it

@HydratedGoose @zephyr_org Yield paid in a privacy stable coin that goes #uponly. Buy $zeph swap to $zsd then swap to $zys. $zsd and $zys swaps done in the wallet to keep privacy. @zephyr_org #defi #privacy

stablecoin yield regs are tightening and many institutional yield farmers have already started wondering where to go from here... Ondo is doing T-bill yields + KYC. Ethena is sitting at ~3.5% APY. @zephyr_org is quietly doing 3-7x that. > no KYC, powered by Monero tech. > yield comes directly from PoW block rewards. > sustainable mechanics, first of its kind. under the radar (for now).

@kyrome722 @DrFuture8000 Try this link: discord.gg/y4mzbDYSqQ If that doesn’t work, DM me your Discord handle and I’ll sort it out

@DrFuture8000 I have never successfully joined Discord.我不晓得什么原因

ZRS circulation ONLY increases when someone buys $ZEPH and locks it away to support the decentralized stablecoin $ZSD Draw your own conclusions... 👇 It just hit another ATH 👀

@WalkerAmerica Well this is timely, more than ever. x.com/HydratedGoose/…

“Privacy in an open society requires anonymous transaction systems.” Eric Hughes, “A Cypherpunk’s Manifesto.” March 9, 1993.

@zephyr_org good to see stables becoming more mainstream. in any case, yield from block emissions doesn't need a bill to pass. which makes it a great time to collect the best stablecoin APY in DeFi ( $ZYS )

❯❯ Florida just passed the first stablecoin law in the US_ ▦ 37 senators > Zero opposition. ▦ SB 314 writes the rulebook for every fiat-backed stablecoin in the state. But it doesn't apply to $ZSD. Here's why that matters 👇

@familiarcow @NEARProtocol Congrats on the new position, they’re lucky to have you!

After over four years building THORChain, I’m starting a new chapter. I’m joining @NEARProtocol to build NEAR Intents, focusing on BD & growth. This is a conviction bet on DeFi, Privacy, AI, and the NEAR team. I couldn’t be more excited to join a strong ecosystem of builders. I think NEAR has several advantages that will help us accelerate the next wave of DeFi adoption (and far beyond) through Intents: 1) Market structure: There is no single unified marketplace. Instead, a competitive solver network sources the best price from anywhere. Competition is the edge. It’s why NEAR achieves strong price execution and continues to improve as the network grows 2) Privacy: Private transactions extend privacy to any connected asset without sacrificing self custody. Institutions and serious individuals don’t want their business to be your business. Ironically, many rely on centralized exchanges today for that privacy. We can bring that activity onchain without making everyone’s transactions public 3) Compliance: If DeFi wants broad adoption, sensible compliance is unavoidable. The challenge is doing it without compromising censorship resistance and permissionlessness. Serious actors will not come onchain unless their safety and users are protected 4) Deposit channels: This is gold standard UX. Send assets to an address and top up your onchain account. Simple & familiar, giving CEX-like parity without giving up self custody. That removes friction and accelerates adoption 5) Brand and trust: Branding is underrated infrastructure. NEAR is in the perfect position for this 6) Narrative alignment: Stablecoins as USD rails. Native Bitcoin rails. Blockchains as infrastructure. Onchain privacy. Agents transacting onchain. NEAR sits at the intersection of every major narrative that continues to gain momentum 7) AI alignment: Agents will play a growing role in everyday life. NEAR sits at the intersection of AI coordination and crypto rails. That convergence is only beginning and has yet to meaningfully play out, as the space is still very young. NEAR is an AI org at its core. 8) Builders who ship: I’ve been consistently impressed by the team’s velocity and focus on real products that improve users’ lives. Not vaporware. In the arena, trying things 9) A superset of all finance: Today the focus is crypto to crypto rails. The end state is much larger. Stocks, derivatives, forex, prediction markets, commodities, lending. Intents can become coordination infrastructure for all financial venues as they move onchain. 10) Beyond just finance: Intents are not limited to capital markets. They enable subjective requests executed by agents. Find an apartment, book a trip, sell a car, coordinate logistics. Intents as programmable infrastructure for real world coordination, not just finance. This is largely unexplored space which will grow massively in the coming years and Intents is the perfect coordination layer I still fully intend to remain a THORChain community member. That’s who I am and what I considered myself since Day 1 over five years ago and I don’t see that changing. I’m immensely proud of what we built over the last few years. I also will continue maintaining Rune Tools as the network continues to evolve. I’m infinitely grateful to those who helped me along the way, especially Chad, Gavin, and the 9R team who gave me the opportunity to work on the cutting edge. Personally, it’s very bittersweet for me and I’m sad to leave the team, but also very excited to start on a new chapter for myself. One where I think I have a major opportunity to help to accelerate DeFi, Bitcoin, AI alignment, & the principles that helped keep me in this space. Infinite thanks and gratitude to my friends and colleagues (you know who you are) I feel like I have so much more I want to accomplish and I couldn’t be more excited to be in the arena at the cutting edge of crypto rails, privacy, and AI at NEAR Much love ❤️ Tyler FamiliarCow

@iconridge yeah it looks that way. wild scenes

Bitcoin as we know it today would have never existed without crucial support from Jeffrey Epstein.

@DrFuture8000 Thanks Doc 🫡 No doubt the first of many that feature your solid insights.

@HydratedGoose Fantastic read! Everyone should check this out ☝️

I used to write a lot a while ago, nearly forgot how much I enjoyed it. Got a few topics up my sleeve I want to get out over the coming weeks. Do give it a read, hopefully you find it entertaining (and learn a thing or two)

@DrFuture8000 $ZYS and $ZEPH is the best savings account, and it’s not even close.

With the $ETH bridge Testnet V2 launching imminently ⌛ Remember... No one will need to buy $zeph to pump your bags... When people enter the 30% APY Stablecoin Yield pool... ...the bridge will automatically buy zeph to refill the pool... ...so more people can access the yield... No one is fucking ready for this 🚨

@DerilPana @MEXC_Official @zephyr_org So much in store for $ZEPH it’s not even funny ⌛️

First $ZEPH Target done at @MEXC_Official This Is just getting started #Zephers @zephyr_org EVM Is coming. $ZYS HighLighted asset APY yield for Stable $ZSD Will give to talk about. Join us ! ZephyrProtocol.Com Wallet.ZephyrProtocol.Com

@stacksat Appreciate you @stacksat !

@HydratedGoose Wow! Great thread 🧵 . Well done 👍
