@sanctumso When the new season? And what is outcome for season 1?

Wake up Albus 💤

@MastrXYZ Where it is now isn’t what we dreamed of as the financial freedom 😞

An ode to crypto and Web3, because the original idea still matters. Crypto was never supposed to be only about charts, market caps, influencer screenshots, exchange listings, and the next group of insiders dumping on retail. At its best, crypto was a rebellion against systems that asked ordinary people to trust institutions that had already failed them too many times. It was about ownership. It was about access. It was about giving people a way to hold value, move value, build value, and verify truth without asking permission from a bank, a government, a payment processor, or a platform that could erase them with one policy change. Web3 promised something deeply human beneath all the noise. It promised that builders could create without begging gatekeepers, that communities could organise without being owned by a corporation, that users could become participants instead of products, and that value could finally move closer to the people who create it. Yes, the space has been poisoned by scams, rugs, paid shills, fake decentralisation, predatory launches, and billionaires pretending to fight the system while rebuilding the same system with different logos. But that is not the whole story. The whole story is also the developer building in silence for years. It is the researcher tracking fraud before anyone cares. It is the anonymous contributor writing open source code that millions may one day use. It is the person in a country with broken banking infrastructure who can finally receive money without being trapped by local corruption. It is the artist who can sell directly to supporters. It is the community that forms around an idea before the world understands it. Crypto still matters because the question it asked has never been answered properly. Who should control money? Who should control identity? Who should control access? Who should control the platforms where people communicate, build, trade, organise, and survive? If the answer is always the same handful of corporations, banks, states, exchanges, billionaires, and political networks, then nothing has truly changed. We have only upgraded the interface of the old machine. But if crypto can return to its original fire, to verification over blind trust, ownership over dependency, transparency over hidden control, and open systems over captured platforms, then the idea is still worth defending. Not blindly, not naively, not like a cult please. But with discipline, honesty, and a refusal to let the worst people in the room define what this technology could become. Crypto is not dead. Web3 is not dead. The dream is just buried under greed, noise, manipulation, and cowardice. And maybe the real work now is to dig it out again. I am trying my best, and I know I am not the only one.

@soniox_ai @pipecat_ai Lovely

Soniox Text-to-Speech is now fully released in @pipecat_ai. With Soniox STT + TTS, developers can build real-time voice bots that understand and speak in 60+ languages. Native-speaker accuracy. Accurate alphanumerics. Production scale. Build global voice bots with Pipecat + Soniox. Read more on our blog: soniox.com/blog/voice-bot…

@soniox_ai Thank you will read it but what about the available integration with CX platforms and CCaaS platforms?

To not believe just our claims, you can check third-party benchmarks with numbers accross all providers that touch on the subject of STT latency for voice agents, done by team from Pipecat: daily.co/blog/benchmark… Our TTS runs on the same infra. And yes, STT supports realtime translation across all supported languages.

Big moment for Soniox: Today we’re launching Soniox Text-to-Speech. This is a major step forward for us. Soniox started with speech-to-text. Now, with both STT and TTS, we are becoming the voice platform for every language. Soniox TTS is built for the hardest parts of speech generation: - Native-speaker-quality speech in 60+ languages - Hallucination-free speech generation - Alphanumerics spoken correctly like numbers, IDs, addresses - Correct pronunciation for names and foreign words - Ultra-low-latency streaming for real-time voice applications And the pricing is simple: $0.70 per hour of generated speech. What excites us most is the bigger picture: Developers and companies can now work with one provider for the core voice stack: speech-to-text, text-to-speech, multilingual voice, real-time infrastructure, regional deployments, and compliance. This is a big step in our transition from an STT provider to the voice platform for every language. Voice is becoming a core interface for software. But to work globally, it has to be fast, accurate, robust, and affordable across every language. That is what we are building at Soniox. Read the blog post: soniox.com/blog/soniox-te…

@devjoshstevens @PolymarketDevs @Polymarket Great update thanks 🙏

This is my 3rd week as VP of Engineering DeFi at @Polymarket , and I'm going to be straight: the traction @Polymarket has seen has massively outpaced our infrastructure, and we haven't done nearly enough to scale to keep up. I hear you, and fixing this is our entire focus. We're a major company now, and we need to engineer like one. Here's exactly what we're doing: - Onchain data latency. We're working on making this near-instant so the experience is incredible. - Chain migration. We need more block space, cheaper gas and much smaller block times so settlement is instant. - Transactions are getting cancelled. We understand this is one of the most frustrating issues right now, and we have a complete fix coming very soon. - Massive focus on the website to make it faster, more responsive, and with better UX. - We added observability everywhere. Proper alerting so we catch issues ourselves, market makers should not be the ones telling us something is down. That's been unacceptable, and we know it. - E2e tests throughout, starting with the CLOB, so issues get caught in CI before anything ships. - CLOBv2 is not a rewrite. It won't improve performance or stability on its own; it's an upgrade that unlocks us to move fast right after. We'll do better with communication next time. - We are rebuilding the CLOB from the ground up. Most important thing we're doing. Without it, we can't be the best DeFi exchange in the world. We know it, we're on it, it's mission critical. - Unified TypeScript SDK for all APIs, which is shipping soon. - Unified API. One WS connection for everything, with a schema that's actually readable. - New Polymarket contract in the works that unlocks things that are simply impossible on the current protocol. - New hires: Head of QA Automation, Head of Dev Tooling, Head of Internal Tooling, Head of Data Engineering. - Smaller, dedicated teams. Fewer focus points per person, clearer ownership. People do what they're good at and are accountable for it. - Working closely with customer support to give them real debugging tools so any user issue gets properly diagnosed, not lost. - Proper communication with marketing and market makers so everyone knows what's coming and when, and MM can submit feature requests with a clear path to get them into engineering and shipped. - Working with 4 security teams daily to ensure we're super secure and that funds are always safe. - Perps incoming. Brand new contracts and a backend built from scratch in Rust. We're proud of this one. - A lot of other fixes are running in parallel right now. Starting next Friday, I will be posting weekly engineering updates. I joined because I genuinely believe in what @Polymarket is trying to do. @shayne_coplan built this so the world has somewhere to go to find out what's actually going to happen, not what the media thinks, not what a pundit says, but what thousands of people are willing to put money on. But right now, our engineering isn't living up to that. We've let people down, and I'm not going to dress that up. I came here to fix it, and that's exactly what we're going to do. The next few months are going to speak for themselves. Stay with us.

@solanamobile Lovely 😊

That's a wrap on Seeker Season 1 SKR claims. You claimed 89.7% of the airdrop. 200M SKR is going back to the future airdrops pool. 70% of circulating SKR is staked. 90,405 of you are holding. Thank you, Seekers. We're just getting started 🫡

@Abomination81 That is crazy but I hope you get unharmed out of this.

Got sued. Not my normal PolyMarket post. But so wild I had to share, long story but worth it. I have a lot of businesses. One, is car dealerships, have a few. Sold a girl with rougher credit a Black Jaguar. She had bought a car from us previously but had wrecked it and needed a new one. Breaks were squeaking so we replaced them with brand new rotors and pads from jaguar. This was over a year ago. Got served yesterday. The owner of the jaguar was driving, at 3am. She lost control, hit the embankment and flipped the car. Car landed upside down. Her and her friend, were unhurt. They got out of the car, unharmed. And decided to go back into the car.. upside down on the freeway to get their stuff out. A truck came around the bend and hit the car with both women inside it. Killing the passenger and severely injuring the driver. Passenger was tested, had multiple drugs and alcohol in her system. Driver, for god knows what reason, was never tested. Our lawsuit is wrongful death. We are being sued.. by the driver, for wrongful death... of her friend. Not her relative, not her kid, her friend. The claim is the brakes we put on over a year ago (and by the way 20,000 miles ago), that were oem parts... that were fine for a year and tons of miles... somehow caused her to lose control and flip the car. The absolute insanity is beyond me. We have another lawsuit going on just as bonkers. Some people

@DeFiTuna Wow that is an amazing upgrade 👌

"The Big Update" is now live! DefiTuna just got one of its biggest updates yet!

@WhiteWhaleLabs We are happy that you are back and hopefully you resolve all the personal matters.

The Memecoin Journey - A Debrief (Secrets Revealed) On December 7th, I made what hindsight has shown to be a huge mistake. I CTO’d a meme someone had made using my image/likeness without my authorization or participation. I did so with the purest of intentions. Ironically, I said often in the beginning that one of two things was going to happen: I would personally end up being everyone’s exit liquidity, or it was going to absolutely moon. Turns out both things can be true at once. What Happened While it is true that I’ve personally put more money into the trenches than any single individual ever, with hundreds of thousands of dollars given away and multiple millions invested into the chart, I could not escape the curse I was warned about: people will blame you for every red candle. The mental health strain, combined with real-life issues that are still ongoing, became too much to bear. I would not recommend running a coin to anyone, and I understand now why 90% of people who launch coins are simply in it for the max extraction game. I saw firsthand how this space can corrupt people, and I now understand how people end up taking on a villain arc. I was never tempted to take on that villain arc. It’s just not in my DNA. But for the first time, I could understand how people get to that place. What happened was simple. Between personal issues and running this coin, I got to a very dark and dangerous place. An Apology First, I owe everyone an apology. For not being strong enough, I am sorry. I misjudged the response of the trenches. I believed in my heart and soul that the best thing I could do, considering I had to walk away, was to lock over half the supply - supply I had spent a LOT of my personal money to acquire. After all, I never wanted it to be about me in the first place. I wanted it to be about what the movement stood for. And I genuinely believed that removing the question mark that always sat in the back of some people’s minds about the Treasury wallet was the best parting gift I could offer. A final “fall on my sword” moment that would be incredibly bullish for the holders. Instead, it had the opposite effect. I posted my goodbye message and logged off assuming some sort of God candle was being printed. But I forgot a core truth: markets hate surprises. I also owe a sincere apology to my dear friend and personal mentor, @Evan_Mann . I have a few mentors in this space; however, Evan has been mine for the longest, and I had developed a sincere friendship with him. When he initially warned me not to do the CTO, for reasons that ALL came to pass, I didn’t like what I was hearing. I pushed him away and eventually stopped talking to him. I incorrectly mistook his sage wisdom and guidance as a lack of belief in me. Even though we are long past the days of Evan teaching me the history of various blockchains - yes, I’ve been with him that long - Evan remained a trusted and valued friend and mentor to me, often counseling me on big-picture matters. Because no matter how far you go in life, or how much you learn, I believe everyone can benefit from solid mentorship to keep them grounded and focused on their journey. So Evan, for pushing you away, I’m sorry. The Core Problem In my parting message, I mentioned that PumpFun was a cancer to this space. It’s true. The entire engine is designed to profit Pump, not traders, not even serial deployers - PumpFun itself. They do not care about anything that doesn’t feed them. And they feed on volume and volatility. Everything from how the bonding curve is designed to the liquidity design and shape of the PumpSwap pool is meticulously built to bring them maximum profit. After surpassing $100M MCAP, on the climb to $200M, I was involved in a group chat with many from the PumpFun team. We had broken the nine-figure curse, and this thing was just exploding. I wanted to strengthen my relationship with Pump and see what they might be able to do to help us out. I knew they were the mafia, but I had an obligation to my holders to do everything I could to help the coin succeed, even if that meant dining with the devil to see what the devil could do for us. They were excited to chat with me and eager to hop on a call to present their multi-point plan to help the coin succeed even further. Then Penguin launched, and the group chat went silent. They ghosted the call we were supposed to have. After doing some on-chain sleuthing, it became readily apparent that Penguin had some outside support. I highly suspected that outside support was coming from Pump. I followed up with a message along the lines of, “It’s okay if you guys are going in another direction, I just want to close the loop on the conversation,” at which point they came scrambling back to me. I eventually had the previously scheduled call, but with only one member of the team. I again laid out the areas where we needed help. I diplomatically tried to thread the needle without putting them on the defensive about the liquidity shape issue. I said we could really use some downside support, as the liquidity shape hard-coded to Pump tokens is “thin air” below. This was when the first big reveal came. I was told this should not be public knowledge, but he admitted to me during that call that they do internal market-making on some coins to “help them out.” Then he dropped the bombshell that they had already invested $800K into the project at “about a $70M MCAP” using their market-making services. I said, “I probably already know which addresses are yours, as we run very tight monitoring,” and his knee-jerk reaction was to laugh. He said he found that highly unlikely because they spread it across multiple addresses. I asked how many, and he paused while I heard some tapping away on the keyboard. 436 was the answer. Almost as if he felt he had shared too much, he quickly followed it up by saying, “We do this to help the coin go up,” but in the same breath said, “We run a delta-neutral strategy.” Both of those things cannot be true. You cannot remain neutral while still having a goal of “number go up.” But it begs the further question: why is the casino out there disguising itself as players in the first place? It most certainly isn’t for the benefit of other players, as the track record shows clearly. They do nothing that doesn’t directly benefit them. After that call I was promised a follow up with an action plan in a few days. They went back to ghosting me and that follow up never came. Inorganic Price Discovery When ByBit decided, of its own accord and without including me in the conversation, to list us on perps, I was immediately terrified. As a trader, I know that perps drive price action more than spot does across the board, especially on lower-MCAP coins. It’s almost impossible to compete with leveraged dollars on spot, not when someone can spend $10 of real money and have $500 worth of notional buying or selling power. We quickly identified the on-chain wallet addresses for the perps market maker and quickly identified their method of hedging. While various market makers employ various methods, this market maker consistently hedged on-chain WITH the direction of the trade. So if someone longed, we would see their wallet addresses immediately buy spot. If someone shorted, we would immediately see their wallet addresses dump spot. Because they transferred spot to and from CEXs, it was impossible to know how much spot they had acquired for their operation, at what price, etc. But they always seemed to have supply, and it didn’t come from us. The problem is that perps already have a short bias toward memecoins to begin with. Add on top of that the fact that we were clearly in a bear market, and the amount of sell pressure that came directly from ByBit perps was nothing short of a colossal, consistent downward boot on our necks. This is really hard to counter. One could simply assume that I should have encouraged everyone to just go long on the token on ByBit. But the problem is that when that long closes, it results in a sale on DEX, whether it closes because someone reached a take-profit point or because a long got liquidated. With that knowledge, one would assume that everything should end up equal in the end, right? But no. The persistent waves of shorts caused sell pressure on the chart, which spooked spot holders. So the perps activity never truly ended up being a neutral force as positions opened and closed, because spot holders continued to lose confidence in the chart. Not to mention, there seemed to be an endless supply of short sellers. At one point, there was $55 million in open interest on our token. I can’t even begin to compete with that kind of buying and selling power. But I tried. I tried my best, and lost another six figures of my own money in the effort. Many days I was successful. But over the long term, I simply couldn’t overpower design mechanics: being soulbound to the PumpFun liquidity architecture, plus the power of perps. Every day was a constant battle of David vs. Goliath. Bleeding my own cash reserves endlessly, only to be met with a thousand people asking me, “why chart go down?” and “What are you going to do?” What’s Next? That remains up to the community. I have not touched the treasury wallet since my sign-off, nor will I. LP operations continue to be run by a trusted friend. Yes, I heard there was an accidental sell by the treasury wallet the other day, with an immediate repurchase after. We all make honest mistakes. I accidentally have done a wrong-way swap in the past as well, but no one ever noticed at that time. For my own sanity and peace of mind, I will not be engaging in any commentary or discussion about the token moving forward. What I will do, slowly and as my real-life struggles allow, is re-emerge here on X as my old self. Talking about important topics and finding my way back to some peace. I believe the best thing I can do for anyone at this point is simply be my authentic self, as that’s what a lot of people were attracted to in the first place. I gave all of myself to this, including flushing away more money than has ever been spent by any dev in the history of the space. I never promised a specific result. I only promised to do the best I could. And I did, up until the point it almost killed me. I hold no shame for that, because I know what I did, even though a few loud voices would like people to believe otherwise. And at the end of the day, the person I will always have to answer to is the person I see staring back at me in the mirror. This space is wild, though. And what’s old becomes new again. So do I think this is the end of the coin? No. My gut says it’s not. It’s simply the end of me risking my sanity, my entire savings, my daily reputation, or my life for its performance. It will do what it does, what the people will it to do, and I'll be the best example of my personal values that I can be. Personally, I will never be buying a token that ends with the suffix “pump” again in my lifetime. 🫡 From the depths — The White Whale 🐋

@WhiteWhaleLabs @solflare @binance Glad to see you safe, hopefully your family too.

@solflare @binance Like a flight instructor once told me…just because you can doesn’t mean you should.

Let’s own it!

@marygooneratne Great actions but these needs continuous monitoring and transparency dashboards so users can always be informed. Good job 👏

To fulfill the vision of onchain finance, we don't need higher yields or more composability. We need to eliminate the spectre of "full loss of funds" hanging over the heads of everyone participating. It's an impossible risk to price in and makes the "cost" of DeFi far too high to be worth the endgame. In light of recent events, I wanted to share more on how Loopscale's architecture itself introduces structural security advantages over the pool model for onchain lending in addition to the robust technical and operational security processes we've implemented over the past year. It starts with understanding the constraints of the current model. Pool-based lending (e.g. Drift, Aave, Morpho, Fluid, Kamino) relies on shared state: global oracles, global LTVs, and co-mingled deposits. With one bad parameter change or one bad asset, everyone, lenders *and* borrowers alike, are exposed. Loopscale meaningfully addresses this at a primitives level: 1. Collateral isolation: No collateral on Loopscale is auto-rehypothecated. Your collateral for each loan or loop sits in a standalone PDA. If anything happens to the vault you're borrowing from, borrowers have zero risk of their collateral being compromised as a result. In the recent exploit, much of what was taken was idle collateral sitting in shared pools, assets like JLP and jitoSOL that no one was borrowing. Markdowns on bad debt also impacted borrowers directly, which cannot occur with segregated, non-rehypothecated collateral accounts. If bad debt occurs elsewhere on the platform, borrowers and loopers cannot be impacted. Your position is your position. 2. Deposit isolation: Unlike Morpho or Fluid, deposits into one USDC vault are never co-mingled with deposits from other vaults into shared sub-markets. All deposits remain in their own isolated accounts, with liquidity unified on the Creditbook. If one market has issues, you're not competing for withdrawals with other vaults, and you're not subject to parameter changes lobbied for by curators you never deposited with. 3. Lender control: There is no concept of a global oracle, global LTVs, or a universal approved asset list. Lenders can create positions and control the specific oracles, terms, and assets at all times. There is no scenario where we, or anyone attempting to compromise us, could change your positions. 4. Vault guardrails: Even where depositors delegate to vault curators, multiple layers of protection exist independently of trust in the curator: • New asset-oracle combinations require approval from our administrative multisig before a curator can add them. • All risk-increasing decisions (LTV/LQT increases, cap increases, new assets, oracle changes) are automatically timelocked. • Each vault has customized caps on individual asset allocations and all asset flows, limiting exposure to any single collateral issue or curator-level compromise. All of this follows from the architecture itself. We believe order book-based lending is the only model that can support the scale and seriousness of capital that DeFi needs to fulfill its promise.

@LinceFinance Nice, thanks 🙏

Check if your favorite protocol has multisig: yields.lince.finance/tracker/solana…

Solana DeFi is leveling up security. Following the recent Drift Protocol incident, the Yield Tracker shows a clear shift: • More protocols moving to multisig setups • Higher approval thresholds (2/3 → 3/5 → 4/7) • Widespread adoption of Squads Pattern consistent across newly deployed and updated programs.

@CavemanDhirk @DeFiTuna Honestly don’t know why $SOL community are not using @DeFiTuna enough 🤦🏻‍♂️ keep building bro 💪🏻

Our team at DefiTuna has consistently been at the forefront of change for liquidity providers - specifically through many groundbreaking UX features such as: -Live PNL -Intuitive calculator for LPs -Position modification
