1/ 🔐 Not your keys, not your data. The @diode_chain Network is the leading open and permissionless zero trust network (ZTN). It’s more secure than traditional ZTNAs and delivers communication for the price of bandwidth. Here’s why @diode_chain is a game changer: 🧵👇

Livestream tomorrow: THORChain Community x BiorLabs. Saturday • 10AM EDT / 2PM UTC.

Can't wait 🥳🥳

Put a note in your calendar!

what the on/off ramp aggregator changes in practice: instead of one provider handing you one rate, you'll see a list. the same buy quoted by multiple ramps. different fees. different payment methods. different processing times. side by side. the cheapest isn't always the fastest. the fastest isn't always available in your country. you decide which trade-off fits. integration shipping soon.

Did You Know: gas isn't a fee the wallet charges you. In simple terms, its the price you pay the blockchain for processing your transaction. In technical terms It's the fee paid to the network validators securing the chain.

It's hard to comprehend the mind of those who still don't see the value in crypto. The citizens of every country that gets sanctioned, enters a war, or faces government tyranny starts using it as a backup.

Shipping a stability pass this week on BiorVault. Faster wallet load on cold start, cleaner network switching, fewer 'why is this spinning' moments. Small things. They add up.

The App Layer is levelling up. With CCL, LPs are no longer just passive, they can now act as market makers and use their capital more efficiently, while unlocking stronger strategies, better execution and deeper liquidity. A step forward for @RujiraNetwork and THORChain as a hub for cross-chain DeFi Take a look blog.thorchain.org/custom-concent…

Exciting news! 🌐 Everything you need to know about BiorSwap is now live on our site, and the beta is launching soon! 🚀 Check the link in our bio! 🔗

Did You Know: most 'cross-chain' swaps aren't one transaction. Under the hood it's a swap, a bridge, sometimes another swap, across different protocols. A good aggregator just hides the mess. A great one also shows you the route before you sign. BiorSwap Coming Soon!

Once you go native, you never go back.

⚡ This Saturday on the THORChain Community Livestream. "iBek" from @unstoppablebyhs joins @KentonC137 and @patriotsounds live at 10AM EDT / 2PM UTC. The team behind THORChain's frontend and one of the best self custody wallets in the space. riverside.com/studio/thorcha…

Agorism, privacy wars, and why THORChain won't flinch. @SallyMayweather joined @KentonC137 & @patriotsounds for a wide ranging conversation on financial freedom, $XMR, and why crypto is the most powerful weapon against central banking. Saturday's Livestream recap by @raynalytics 👇 blog.thorchain.org/agorism-privac…

Don’t trust. Verify. ⚡️ THORChain is completely transparent. Every swap, every vault, and every transaction is visible on-chain. Our new article shows you exactly how to read one: blog.thorchain.org/how-to-read-a-…

Did you know? The New York Stock Exchange spent 230 years controlling when markets open and close. The opening / closing bell are the two most powerful moments in global finance. Everything revolves around them. In January 2026, the NYSE announced it is building a blockchain platform for 24/7 trading of tokenized stocks and ETFs. Instant settlement. No opening bell. No closing bell. No waiting until Monday.

Did you know? In 2021, El Salvador became the first country in the world to make Bitcoin legal tender. Three years later, it needed a $1.4 billion IMF loan. The conditions: repeal mandatory Bitcoin acceptance, freeze all government Bitcoin purchases, ban all public sector Bitcoin transactions, and submit to a full audit of their holdings. El Salvador signed. El Salvador's finance minister and central bank president signed a letter confirming no Bitcoin had been purchased since February 2025. The apparent daily purchases announced by the Bitcoin Office were not new buys, just the government consolidating Bitcoin it already owned across wallets. The IMF got what it wanted. El Salvador lost its Bitcoin legal tender status to get a loan from the IMF.

@Teknium loading up the agentic simulation...

OpenAI wants to sell intelligence on a meter, like a utility. To build the infrastructure for that, they're asking the US government to expand the CHIPS Act tax credit to cover AI data centres, servers, and grid components. A 35% federal subsidy on top of state-level tax breaks that already cost taxpayers over $3 billion a year. Georgia alone is projected to lose $625 million in foregone revenue this fiscal year, up from $10 million in 2020. A state audit found 70% of that construction would have happened without the incentives. Meanwhile, residents in rural Georgia are organising against data centres taking their water, their land through eminent domain, and their electricity, for facilities that employ a few dozen people once the builders leave. OpenAI's own CFO has reportedly expressed doubts about readiness for a 2026 IPO while the company sits on $1.4 trillion in capital commitments over eight years against $20 billion in current annualised revenue. This is the trajectory if AI stays centralised, taxpayers subsidise the buildout, and communities absorb the environmental cost. And once the infrastructure is in place and businesses can't operate without it, the meter starts running. The compute to run frontier AI already exists, distributed across millions of GPUs in data centres, offices, and homes around the world, sitting idle for a lot of the day. Instead of building more hardware, we ought to use what we have more efficiently. Many companies and individuals spend a lot on professional hardware. What if they could rent their machines when they don't use them and generate income from it? This is where decentralised networks come in and coordinate the existing supply without billion-dollar campuses or tax breaks. More providers mean lower prices and a more liquid market. It's a win for all participants, owners generate income, and ML engineers and agents get lower compute prices. The reason why it hasn't happened is that no company has successfully been able to coordinate GPUs, make execution deterministic, and provide verifiability that user data wasn't tampered with. At Hellas, we are building a solution for this trifecta, and hope to make compute liquid and easily accessible.

Governments have always moved markets with timed announcements. Just look at Trump announcements. After a week of noise, the real move lands Friday after the close. Tokenized commodities don't wait for Monday. They trade 24/7. No bell. Should we integrate them into BiorVault?

@sandislonjsak Before you'd struggle and then get the dopamine hit.
