Node synchronization and session key rotation process, full video coming on Monday! $NULLA

github.com/NullaZK/nulla-… We have uploaded the code for the ProofHub parachain, which is maintained by the project team and serves as the core privacy layer of the protocol. Other parachains submit private commitments to this parachain via cross-chain messaging. As visible in the repository, the parachain includes the same proof and verifier pallet used in the original Nulla test chain v0.1.0. The parachain will be connected to the relay chain once the relay testnet is live.

I have to disagree here, Helium is in a very competitive market, they have an edge over everyone with their free plan they should be investing more in marketing, imagine what can that money create in additional revenue as they gain market share. We should be aiming for 30-40M$ per month in revenue in 2-3 years. Buy backs will just make no sense, but there is still the buyback from the offload anyway.

I love @helium but I'm disappointed to see this announcement. I don't like this approach because token holders or users who collect rewards could become second-class citizens. We often say that DePINs need to create a service/product in Web2 market, to be able to monetize and grow, but not that it becomes a full Web2 company. Because if a project is successful, there won't be shareholders who will approve a vote to redirect revenue from shareholder dividends to token holders. The buybacks outlined in the Tokenomics or Whitepaper serves precisely to establish credibility and thus reassure that, those who believe in the project (like the infrastructure created by us users/builders) will be rewarded because a percentage of the revenue will go to them. And even if the current market situation is dire, it's never a waste of money to do buybacks: those who believe in the project know how to wait for better market times, and in difficult situations (like now) the buyback helps the Network to have active participants. To grow and achieve its goals, a Web3 project or DePIN must have buyback and burn mechanisms. My 2 cents: if you want to hold large amounts of tokens, make sure that DePIN has these mechanisms in its Tokenomics or Whitepaper #DePIN #Buyback

My 2 cents here Amir, I think what you’re saying is a fair argument - but in my opinion there’s also an option 3. Staking could be a great investor-facing mechanism. Instead of buyback & burn, token holders would need to lock their tokens for a defined period. That creates a real incentive to hold, and it aligns long-term holders with the network’s growth. And I don’t think this should be framed as “basic crypto tokenomics.” It’s more about where the business is in its lifecycle. HNT is still in a growth phase. It doesn’t make much sense for a company that’s still capturing market share in a massive industry to allocate profits to buybacks, especially when the ROI on growth is likely much higher. With the growth you’re already seeing, imagine what happens if you deploy an additional $3.2M/month into BD, marketing, user acquisition, and expansion of revenue streams through additional services on the network. The upside is enormous. So for me the discussion shouldn’t be centered on token price, IPO, etc. For utility tokens, the point is to offer what traditional markets don’t: a globally accessible way for stakeholders to participate in value creation through mechanisms like staking. The key is timing: staking becomes most meaningful once the business reaches truly scalable, predictable revenue - think hundreds of millions in attainable revenue - and then you dedicate a portion of that to staking rewards in a way that reinforces long-term alignment without sacrificing growth.

although said in a trolly way, this QT is exactly the core of why buybacks across nearly all projects are ineffective for projects/businesses like Helium, what you ideally want is *ownership*. you want rights to cashflow, dividends, governance, of anything that the entity or project does. tokens given you none of that. you have a cryptographic IOU that the project leaders can change the terms on at almost any time there are many successful off-chain projects - Jupiter, Chainlink, (us), etc who IMO are struggling with the same problem. LINK has been around forever, only recently started buying into a reserve, but who knows when they might stop? and then what's the point of the token? IMO there are only 3 real outcomes here: 1) fold equity into token - creates dilution risk, complexity around funds/lps who can't hold crypto assets, no real rules or laws around how governance works in the end state 2) fold token into equity - company would have to IPO, at a minimum due to 2000 shareholder limit, many token holders aren't KYC'd and would be screwed, some jurisdictions blacklisted, token would still be out there unless you had 100% redemption rate and may be even more confusing 3) try and merge the two structures organically - ie. in our case, try and overlap what the off-chain business does with what the on-chain project does. for us that means increasing the number of @helium_mobile subscribers that use the @helium network. is working, but slowly. we are focusing here for now are there any other mechanisms that people have thought of?

@FezWeb3 $NULLA

What ticker is going to do this?

Kicking ass even during holidays

This team keeps on delivering, makes me feel massive move is coming $NULLA

History remembers the ones who stood alone on stage before the crowd believed. @AstherusCult Ascendants are next. Built on conviction, not applause.

DEV node successfully started the new BABE consensus! This update brings a major consensus change, aiming for seamless switch-over with no block height reset. Next step: full network testing before it hits testnet. Almost wrapped up. Stay tuned, we are almost there!

@amirhaleem @Cryptotobias_ @Merstradamous @helium I think he will change his bio in the future to late on $HNT, early on render my assss

@Cryptotobias_ @Merstradamous @helium the 2.1M DAU over the weekend appears to disagree with you. take this clown BS out of here

T-Mobile, AT&T or both dropped @helium $HNT @amirhaleem when are you going to drop these news on your deployers?

$ASTHERUS will be the first BNB memecoin to billions

🚨HUGE: @grayscale just named @helium a leading force in DePIN in their Q3 2025 crypto sectors report they analyzed 261 tokens across $3 trillion in market cap and highlighted $HNT as proof that decentralized infrastructure is working today, at scale.

You still are defying the whole purpose why Testnet exist. The team left this on purpose to avoid having to distribute testnet tokens to everyone. Its a way to let people play around on testnet, mint and reuse the token so they can create as many transactions as possible and put all the pressure on the test net. Very normal, on the contrary very encouraging. Security will become needed prior to finishing the encryption phase which matters at this phase.

I know for a fact we’ve got at least 5 Aster whales who are also OG $Astherus Ascendants whales. When the time comes… expect pure parabola. Another trading wallet wiped out today, more conviction holders loading up, and the chart is tightening exactly how it should. This is the window to buy $ASTHERUS before the Aster Meta steamrolls the entire market. Easiest low-cap play of 2025. Don’t say you weren’t warned. 🔥 CA: 0x39aea3d999eddbfbe73015b9b274cb912a144444

@HNTbandit @helium not just that, Verizon represents only Helium mobile as a comparison. However, Verizon doesn't operate its towers while Helium has a decentralized network , which is way more valuable as well and guarantees better service

legacy giants like Verizon is at a 170B market cap while @Helium is disrupting the whole telecom industry with 500M market cap. for a network with real usage, $500M feels like the “before the world caught on” phase. people don’t realize how early this is for $HNT

Join @AstherusCult X Spaces to hear what real conviction sounds like. We are taking $ASTHERUS to 1B and beyond and every one is welcomed on the wild ride with us. twitter.com/i/spaces/1LyxB…

$HNT is burning MILLIONS of $ to benefit token holders. don’t believe me? they just burned 100% of Helium Mobile subscriber revenue. that’s $18,300,000 annualized. here’s why you can’t fade @helium 🧵

⁦@AstherusCult⁩ at is again onboarding people in real life in Alpine France. It’s about to get very exciting for $ASTHERUS holders with a breakout imminent and the journey from 1M to 1B about to start. Join the ride and most based global 🌎 community on ⁦@BNBCHAIN⁩
