@ChristianB_0x when ?

Slight delay. Opportunity to accumulate, and to shake out weak hands.

@hoffmang @chia_project @permutocapital @trentmartensen any update about permuto ? i think we need news not soon

@ArtBoss007 I hold a significant amount of XCH, but lately I've been feeling uncertain about whether I should keep holding or sell it. no news from dev

What do you think will happen faster? - XCH price drop to $1? - Network Capacity drop to 1 EIB? #CHIA $XCH #NoOneMarket

@Justin_Bons how about xch @chia_project

We must reject all centralized "blockchains"! This includes Ripple, Canton, Stellar, Hedera & Algorand Centralization is not the future of finance; requiring permission from an authority is not decentralized! Do not be fooled by their lies, as the truth will set us free: 🧵 Ripple: Has a "Unique Node List", which makes the validators effectively permissioned. As any divergence from this centrally published list would cause a fork, effectively giving the Ripple Foundation & company absolute power & control over the chain Canton: The validator set is totally permissioned! Stellar: A similar set-up to XRP, except that they call it "recommended Tier 1 organizations," which is published by the Stellar Development Foundation. However, just like XRP, a high overlap is required, or you risk forking off the network. Effectively putting the power in the hands of the list creator Hedera: The validator set is totally permissioned! Algorand: The "relay nodes" in ALGO are still totally permissioned. Despite validators being permissionless, anyone now has the option to run a "participation node" after they recently implemented a P2P network as an alternative means to propagate TXs. Which means the relay nodes can no longer act as gatekeepers. However, it is unclear how much removing them entirely would affect performance today. Possibly making them a necessary aspect of ALGO's current design Forms of Consensus: Within a blockchain context, there are only three forms of consensus: Proof of Stake, Proof of Work & Proof of Authority If a blockchain does not use PoS or PoW, it is, by definition, PoA! As this was fundamentally an unsolved problem before blockchain came along, which solved this problem through the use of token-based incentives, either through stake or work Anything that does not fit that consensus model is instead fundamentally based on authority/trust. In the case of XRP & XLM, it is important to keep in mind that choosing who we trust is not the same as trustlessness! Binary Choice: A blockchain is either fully permissionless or it is not. ALGO has permissioned elements in its design, so it is still "centralized". A crude way to use language, but we do still need understandable schelling points in crypto. As decentralization is a spectrum, permissionlesness is only one element of that bigger picture. However, personally, any permissioned elements are a deal breaker for me, as it is so anti-thetical to the ethos of crypto that it defeats its entire raison detre Institutional Adoption: Much like the early internet, big institutions are uncomfortable using fully permissionless, public & decentralized networks. So, much like the early internet, those institutions will be left behind. The big winners are the crypto natives. That is true historically & it will also be true in the future too. The big winners during the early internet were the newcomers, not the old guard, for the same reasons we see playing out in crypto now Conclusion: The future of finance is decentralized & permissionless. If you cannot understand that, it is fine. There are other options for you on the free market But let's not pretend as if these chains are really playing a part in this revolution. Quite the opposite, centralized "crypto" is a distraction that only slows the goals of our movement down So, if you care about crypto. Reject these permissioned chains & demand they decentralize. In the meantime, we should vote with our feet & support chains that carry our movement forward towards its intended goals instead Credible neutrality, censorship resistance, privacy, immutability & more can only be achieved on a fully permissionless & decentralized blockchain That is the revolution we were promised & that is the future we can now bring about with the choices we make collectively Crypto is on the right side of history, disrupting power away from centralized authorities to help create a freer & more equitable world! 🔥

@Justin_Bons @SpectatorTech 1 Terabyte = 1 Vote XCH @chia_project

@SpectatorTech It is a shame, as Bitcoin was meant to provide a massive value to society I am still convinced crypto will do that Replacing BTC, as ZERO cypherpunk dreams can be supported by BTC's 7 TPS... The majority of value is in productive assets; crypto will continue with that trend!

BTC does not solve any real-world problems at scale because it cannot scale at all The promise of a fixed supply is a lie, as the security model is unsustainable Support in BTC is based on belief, not utility or value BTC is now a purely speculative vehicle for greed & naivety

👁soon @chia_project @bramcohen @hoffmang @permutocapital @NYSE

What would happen if @saylor bought XCH using 1% of MSTR shares?" @chia_project @bramcohen @hoffmang @chinaesq #price_spike

@SlowestTimelord @Circuit_DAO

I’m holding a contest for new banner art for weekly ThisWeekInChia updates on XCH.today. Submit your entries in this thread, should be 16:9 aspect ratio. Winner will be selected at the end of the weekend! Prize: 20 $BYC (USD pegged stablecoin from @Circuit_DAO)

@DamiDefi hi @grok is the Chia project included in these regulation ?

HUGE: a16z Just Dropped Their 2026 Privacy Trends Here's what they're saying (and why you should care): - Public chains are interchangeable; private chains create lock-in, which concentrates users, liquidity, and value - Decentralized private messaging removes single points of failure and censorship risk, which pushes real users onchain - “Secrets-as-a-service” turns private data into programmable infrastructure, unlocking institutions, RWAs, and autonomous agents - Security is shifting from patching bugs to enforcing rules at runtime, reducing catastrophic exploits The last time @a16zcrypto leaned this hard into a narrative was AI, and that trade reshaped the entire market. If a16z is right (and their track record suggests they are), privacy chains, decentralized messaging, and secrets-as-a-service are about to explode in 2026.

@MrDennisV @hoffmang "I hope you can develop a Qiu-Qiu game for 5 players or a Bingo game for hundreds of players. In developing countries, these types of gambling games are highly popular. It has the potential to attract 5 to 10 million users."

@bramcohen Happy new year. don't make it soon again 🦾

Happy New Year's everybody. Coming up in early '26: Chia Gaming in beta, Permuto launch, new proof of space format finalized

@Pepecoinxch xch152mhwrxuc95ja9a77p3alr2j9qgrwsqxnu3g4ecasd2tu9uwavfq05u458

Drop your $XCH address. You have until Dec. 25, 2025, 3pm PST. P.S. All tokens will be officially in the wild. There will be no more $PEPE in our developer wallet.

@Zbronxxx @DigitalGoldTalk @hoffmang @Luckygroundrock @bramcohen @RealMarkFinchem check the word in the genesis block

@DigitalGoldTalk @hoffmang @Luckygroundrock @bramcohen @RealMarkFinchem We keep hearing how Chia is the most secure, the most decentralized, the ‘best’ blockchain out there. How the founders are the smartest developers in the space. Ok… but then why is nobody buying XCH? Why has the price been dropping for 4 years straight?”

Mind blown! Finally a crypto direction usable for individuals and businesses!
