@HugoPhilion Hey Hugo, what news on FBTC?

A lot of XRP users especially in Asia and specifically Korea use the D’CENT wallet. Integrating natively with the D’CENT platform is another way that Flare makes onboarding to XRPFi so much easier. Flare is building the easiest and safest place to put your XRP to work.

1. Why not ask the question the other way around first? 2. FXRP is non custodial. WXRP is custodial. 3. You are not a client of Hex (the custodian) so you can’t mint or redeem WXRP. This is a huge UX challenge that will be hard to overcome. You are going to have to end up buying it on a dex. 4. Flare Smart Accounts on the other hand mean that you don’t even need to leave XRP environments to use FXRP on other chains. 5. Flare has the most wallet integrations that support both XRP and Flare. 6. In the next version of FXRP anyone holding XRP on an exchange will be able to mint and redeem FXRP directly from that exchange. HUGE! In short FXRP has distribution channels that are pretty hard to compete with. 7. Flare’s ecosystem has the most liquidity and capital available for any version of bridged XRP. 8. Flare’s ecosystem has the most applications available for any version of bridged XRP. 9. Flare’s ecosystem has the most builders dedicated to any version of bridged XRP. 10. WXRP can be quite beneficial for FXRP. FXRP will be on Solana also (as it is on many chains already) so if WXRP is incentivised on Solana or any other chain any FXRP holder or Flare Vault can move their FXRP there and swap for WXRP to take advantage of the incentives bringing those profits back to FXRP and Flare because FXRP and Flare’s vaults are just so easy to use.

@Sable_Darqness @FlareNetworks Don't bother convincing those people. They're deaf to reason

@FlareNetworks i just pulled all my FXRP off kinetic and unminted all of it , what a disapointment

As a precautionary measure, we are temporarily pausing FXRP cross-networking via OFTs between Flare, Ethereum, Base, and other supported networks while the rsETH incident is being investigated. Users holding FXRP on non-Flare networks cannot currently redeem, as redemption requires assets to first be bridged back to Flare. FXRP on Flare continues to function normally apart from OFT-based cross-networking. Minting, redemption, liquidation, and all other in-network functions on Flare remain operational. There is currently no indication of an issue affecting Flare or FAssets. We will share further updates as the situation develops.

@Steffan0xd @BitcoinArchive So is quantum computing

@BitcoinArchive Freezing wallets feels like a slippery slope that goes against everything bitcoin is supposed to stand for.

Cypherpunk Jameson Lopp and other Bitcoin developers propose BIP-361 to freeze quantum vulnerable wallets. This could lock dormant BTC like Satoshi Nakamoto’s 1.1M coins, now worth $74B, before quantum computers can steal them.

@HugoPhilion Gold and RWA

More assets on Flare = more opportunities for ecosystem growth. Under FIP16 this then compounds back into FLR and the ecosystem. Other than FBTC what do you want to see on the network?

@0xQuantic @FlareNetworks Pretty good tbh. Clearly not a shot off the hip.

Listen. FLARE COULD BECOME ONE OF THE FIRST GENERAL-PURPOSE L1s TO IMPLEMENT PROTOCOL-DIRECTED BLOCK BUILDING WITH A GOVERNED MEV MANDATE TIED TO TOKEN ECONOMICS. In simple terms, this means @FlareNetworks is not just trying to grow the network and hope FLR benefits indirectly. It is proposing a system where part of the value normally extracted through block building, arbitrage, and liquidations can be captured at the protocol level and redirected back into the network’s economics. On most networks, more activity does not automatically mean stronger token economics. The chain gets used, value is created, but a meaningful part of that value leaks to external actors while the token still depends heavily on emissions and future expectations. What Flare is proposing is much more ambitious. If activity on the network grows, the goal is for more of that value to be captured through fees, MEV, and other protocol revenues, then routed toward supply reduction, validator and staker support, and broader ecosystem growth. To me, this is one of the biggest open problems in crypto: How do you make token value connect to real network usage? - More usage could mean more value captured. - More value captured could mean stronger FLR economics. - Stronger FLR economics could mean a healthier long-term network. Flare is trying to move away from a model where the token is supported mainly by emissions, toward one where the network recycles more of its own economic activity back into FLR and the ecosystem.

First promo for the animated 'Firefly' series just dropped They need fans to like their post on IG "to convince folks that this is something people want." (via IG | instagram.com/p/DV6Js56jT3F/)

@LeaderAlphaNews @BenArmstrongsX Pathetic attempt at engagement. Unfollowed.

🚨Remember when we ALL watched @BenArmstrongsX hit nuclear rock bottom? Fired from his own empire, family drama, insane lawsuits, Lambo gone, broke, behind bars rumors... pure trainwreck. Yet somehow, the dude's still breathing crypto air in 2026. Scrappy comeback energy kicking in. Proof that even the biggest crashes can lead to a reboot if you survive the fall. Now fast-forward: Charles Hoskinson is in FULL metal breakdown mode over the CLARITY Act – raging about ladders pulled up, $XRP favoritism, Evil Brad G, SEC traps, the works. The salt is real, the rants are long, vibes are dark. We've seen this movie before. Crypto founders crack under pressure too. Time to rally, fam. Send Charles some love, some hopium, some 'we got you' energy. He built Cardano from nothing once. Survived bear markets, hacks, FUD storms. This too shall pass. Brighter days ahead for sure – just like BitBoy proved rock bottom isn't always the end. Who's with me? Diamond-hand the support squad #Cardano #CharlesHoskinson #CryptoCommunity #BrighterDays

@MrPitbull07 Your post backfired

Came home and saw this dramatic little note my stepdad taped to the thermostat telling me not to touch it because it’s “his house.” Yeah, sorry I don’t enjoy sitting in a hoodie indoors while he walks around sweating in gym shorts. I bumped it up a couple degrees earlier because I actually like being comfortable, apparently that makes me public enemy number one. So I cranked it higher out of spite. If I’m already getting treated like some freeloading child, I might as well act the part. He started stomping around, talking about the electric bill, respect, all that lecture stuff, and I just kept adjusting it every time he walked away because I refuse to be cold in a house I spend half my life in. Now he’s threatening to install one of those lock boxes over it and my mom keeps asking why I can’t “just let it go,” which is wild considering I’m the one expected to freeze while he plays king of the thermostat. Honestly if it gets locked I’ll probably just start opening windows in winter to balance it out. Credit: Jason

@johnkarony @coinbureau Fuck off scammer! 100m is not enough for how much pain you caused.

@coinbureau Appeals exist for a reason. Because trial courts don't always get it right. That's what happened here. I never intended to cheat anyone. I am innocent.

🚨FORMER SAFEMOON CEO SENTENCED TO PRISON Ex-CEO Braden John Karony was sentenced Tuesday to 100 months in U.S. District Court (E.D.N.Y.) after being convicted of siphoning millions from SafeMoon to fund a lavish lifestyle. He must also forfeit $7.5M plus two real residences.

@danheld @shahh Dan, always the dumbass in the room. Listen little mind: you didn't, he did.

@shahh And I could have bought 100,000 Bitcoin in 2010 but didn't... retarded logic

Next time you feel bad for missing something that mooned Imagine being SBF: - Put $500m into Anthropic, which would now be worth $70b. - Held $60m in $SOL at $8 that would've been worth $2.1b at the top. - Put $100m into Mysten Labs that would now be worth over $800m. - Invested in Robinhood and held a 7.5% stake that would now be worth $10b. Instead, everything got seized before they went up, and he missed out on $80b in profits 😭

@cz_binance @primenews_en @VitalikButerin Or, you could just never own Eth and never bother with it

@primenews_en 🙏 Remember how people complained about @VitalikButerin because of ETH price? And now he is much quieter X. I think that's absolutely a net negative for the ETH and crypto community, and the complainers' own bags (even if they don't hold ETH). Think about it.

I really don’t even need to save this tweet. They’re blaming Binance for the sell-offs, which is honestly ridiculous. Binance is the most widely used exchange right now, so of course the largest sell pressure will come from there. Binance was the first to share proof of reserves, ahead of all other exchanges. They worked transparently and in line with what regulators and countries required. CZ was pardoned by the U.S. President and it’s almost funny how people think all of this is “easy.” This whole narrative feels absurd to me. When altcoins are pumping, should gold investors start calling gold a scam too? It’s laughable. Do what you know best, CZ. But please, as @VitalikButerin also said, don’t let this place turn into a casino. We’re always with you.

@CryptoSteveO1 @Cardanians_io It does

@Cardanians_io This does NOT bring Circle’s liquidity to the ecosystem! SMH

Charles Hoskinson announces: USDCx is coming to Cardano 🔥 "USDCx is coming to Cardano, bringing Circle's liquidity to the ecosystem." "One of the advantages of this new USDCx is fast integration time."

@michalnethu2 @Cardanians_io For all intents and purposes, it is

@Cardanians_io USDCx is not like USDC

@VitalikButerin Did nobody notice 16384 Eth is 2^14? Oh he's taking the piss. Openly mocking you. This is the guy you trust to upgrade a dinosaur chain?

In these five years, the Ethereum Foundation is entering a period of mild austerity, in order to be able to simultaneously meet two goals: 1. Deliver on an aggressive roadmap that ensures Ethereum's status as a performant and scalable world computer that does not compromise on robustness, sustainability and decentralization. 2. Ensures the Ethereum Foundation's own ability to sustain into the long term, and protect Ethereum's core mission and goals, including both the core blockchain layer as well as users' ability to access and use the chain with self-sovereignty, security and privacy. To this end, my own share of the austerity is that I am personally taking on responsibilities that might in another time have been "special projects" of the EF. Specifically, we are seeking the existence of an open-source, secure and verifiable full stack of software and hardware that can protect both our personal lives and our public environments ( see vitalik.eth.limo/general/2025/0… ). This includes applications such as finance, communication and governance, blockchains, operating systems, secure hardware, biotech (including both personal and public health), and more. If you have seen the Vensa announcement (seeking to make open silicon a commercially viable reality at least for security-critical applications), the ucritter.com including recent versions with built in ZK + FHE + differential-privacy features, the air quality work, my donations to encrypted messaging apps, my own enthusiasm and use for privacy-preserving, walkaway-test-friendly and local-first software (including operating systems), then you know the general spirit of what I am planning to support. For this reason I have just withdrawn 16,384 ETH, which will be deployed toward these goals over the next few years. I am also exploring secure decentralized staking options that will allow even more capital from staking rewards to be put toward these goals in the long term. Ethereum itself is an indispensable part of the "full-stack openness and verifiability" vision. The Ethereum Foundation will continue with a steadfast focus on developing Ethereum, with that goal in mind. "Ethereum everywhere" is nice, but the primary priority is "Ethereum for people who need it". Not corposlop, but self-sovereignty, and the baseline infrastructure that enables cooperation without domination. In a world where many people's default mindset is that we need to race to become a big strong bully, because otherwise the existing big strong bullies will eat you first, this is the needed alternative. It will involve much more than technology to succeed, but the technical layer is something which is in our control to make happen. The tools to ensure your, and your community's, autonomy and safety, as a basic right that belongs to everyone. Open not in a bullshit "open means everyone has the right to buy it from us and use our API for $200/month" way, but actually open, and secure and verifiable so that you know that your technology is working for you.

@VitalikButerin Vitalik, there are other projects out there like $ADA that outperform Eth on every metric. Eth is last gen and no amount of work can bring it to current gen.

@defidaddy23 @RealVision You can also thank The scammer, @RaoulGMI

Welcome to the bearmarket. We all are now bag holders and roundtripping. Thank you @RealVision ! For your 🍌 zone that obliterated our future.

@0xQuantic No thanks, sell FLR at close to all time low?

Interact here only if you would really like to use a Flare card for payments.

@bucciarolo @engineers_feed Neither is beer foam!

@engineers_feed That's a poor analogy. Reactive power is not wasted. It has nothing to do with losses caused by heat and vibrations.

UNDERSTANDING POWER FACTOR Beer is active power (kW) - the useful power, or the liquid beer, is the energy that is doing work. This is the part you want. Foam is reactive power (kVAR) - the foam is wasted power or lost power. It’s the energy being produced that isn't doing any work, such as the production of heat or vibration. The mug is apparent power (kVA) - the mug is the demand power, or the power being delivered by the utility. * Apparent power: S = V x I (kVA) * Active power: P = V x Ia (kW) * Reactive power: Q = V x Ir (kvar) * Power Factor: P/S = cos φ * S² = P² + Q²

@Wealth_Theory Such a dumb take
