This one is for the @0xIntuition Nigeria community. 🇳🇬 I designed an exclusive @0xIntuition inspired merch collection through my brand, and it's my way of celebrating and supporting the INTUITION builders, curators, truth-seekers, and believers pushing the Intuition Protocol forward. I'm giving away 5 exclusive pieces • 2 T-shirts • 2 Sweatshirts • 1 Hoodie. to five of the top Intuition community members in Nigeria. This isn't an official Intuition campaign, it's something I'm doing on behalf of my brand to recognize the people consistently adding value to the ecosystem. If you've been creating quality claims, curating knowledge, educating others, building, or showing up for the community, it’s time you receive a Merch reward! Let's celebrate the community that's helping shape the future of decentralized knowledge. Receivers of the reward will be tagged and announced in the Intuition discord ✨ $TRUST the process 👁️


proud to share our latest build on ShieldSuite, Pitchside AI, officially submitted for the @XLayerOfficial #BuildX hackathon! we poured a lot of work into integrating @aave V3 zero-loss staking vaults with hardware-isolated TEE agent delegation I can’t wait to roll out major European leagues in the coming months and keep expanding the ecosystem! ⚽️🛡




We've extended the OKX.ai hackathon. You now have three opportunities to earn by creating and listing an agent: 1. List and earn while our users purchase the services of your agent 2. Earn from the $100k pool in the hackathon 3. If you get to $1m revenue, @star_okx has committed X BTC as a congratulatory reward. If you need assistance on your agent listing or general building. Feel free to hit my DMs


Devstation Labs has won another hackathon, with our first product, 𝗗𝗲𝘃𝗦𝘁𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻, taking home the Grand Prize. When we started building an AI-powered developer console for a multi-chain world, we knew it would not happen overnight. Wins like this remind us we are solving a problem that people actually care about. Appreciate the recognition, @BOTChain_ai. back to building.



Ahoy! For everyone new to Casper, here are 5 things worth knowing before next week's BIG news. 🧵 You might find some of them surprising...

lots of conversations about base over the last week. wanted to share my candid take after a week of listening and a lot of reflection over the last 6 months. first off - in case it’s not obvious, the first quarter of 2026 was a punch in the face. I spent 2024 and 2025 making a two pronged bet to bring base to the world: (1) builders would unlock the next wave of crypto adoption; (2) adoption would be driven by new onchain-native social experiences - creators, content, messaging. imo we made the right bet on builders, but obviously the wrong bet on social. builders did drive the next wave of crypto adoption - prediction markets, perpetuals, stablecoins - but social was not at the center of it. in fact, the entire social side of the market that many of us had been building towards - farcaster, zora, miniapps, and yes, creator coins - disintegrated completely. I was wrong - whether it was timing wrong (is $ansem a creator coin?) or fully wrong, only time will tell, but regardless, i was definitively wrong. the collateral damage was pretty bad! and this year has been an exercise in eating shit. we realized how our focus on social had meant that base had fallen behind in key areas that were now increasingly critical - we had perps (shoutout avantis!) and prediction markets (shoutout limitless!), but both were well behind scaled competitors. and we had a lot of room to improve in unlocking base as a platform for tokenization and payments that really worked for enterprises. people lost confidence, and CT spectators reminded me weekly of all of my mistakes as often as they could. it felt bad man, still feels bad. but if there’s one thing i’ve learned from the last decade of building in this space, it’s that when things feel the worst, the best thing to do is just put your head down and build. so that’s what i’m doing. I refocused my time and attention back to the chain away from the app, started writing code again, shipped a bunch of stuff (azul, beryl, b20, privacy, ledgers) and questioned a bunch of my assumptions: does crypto need social to grow? does base need an app? can base be bigger than coinbase? I thought for a long time that social was the only thing that could drive the sort of viral growth to get crypto to a billion people. unsurprisingly, I now believe that’s wrong. It’s clear that better money is more than enough - we are seeing this live with stablecoins, predictions, perpetuals, tokenization and i only expect it to accelerate. I am now focused on bringing a billion people onchain just by making global finance actually work. on the app, my focus is on building base into the blockchain for global finance. to that end, i’ve handed the base app back to the coinbase mothership, where my now good friend @cobie will be taking it from here to make it the best damn app for onchain you’ve ever seen, including expanding beyond the base ecosystem in ways that tbh i won’t love as the leader of base. it’s incredibly hard to grow a decentralized network inside of a big public corporation. and i feel like much of the discourse on CT over the last week is downstream of this. the following things can be true: (1) base (and i) love memes and (2) brian probably won’t ever bullpost memes on the tl (this activity is illegal once you’re over 40 years of age). it’s weird and we’re working through it as we continue to decentralize base, which has been our commitment from the beginning. we’re going to build base into the blockchain for global finance and do everything we can to be the place that the world’s money settles over the next century. we will surely have formidable competitors (welcome robinhood and stripe!) and people may abandon our cause, but we welcome the competition and believe it’s our duty to win the respect and commitment of those who rally to our banner. in 2026, this concretely means three things: winning trading, payments, and agents.
