Reading the 2026 Core roadmap, what stands out is how focused it is on products people really want. A Bitcoin neobank where you earn, borrow, and spend without selling your BTC. Liquid staking tokens that let you earn yield on your BTC. Asset management protocols that package Bitcoin strategies into institutional-grade products. ETFs and enterprise solutions that bring Bitcoin finance to institutions. These aren't narratives or token experiments. They're real businesses with real revenue models. The neobank charges fees. The AMPs take management fees. The LSTs generate yield and take a cut. ETF issuers need Core's infrastructure. All of that activity runs on CORE as the gas token, and a portion of revenue flows back into CORE demand. The roadmap isn't about abstract promises. It's about building products that solve problems Bitcoin holders have right now and turning that usage into sustainable businesses.

@crypt0xbini @ethmumbai So proud 🥹

can’t believe it’s been a week since ETHMumbai more than the conference and hackathon, what stayed with me is the people, especially our mitra mandal and all the volunteers 🤍 everyone was so kind and supportive, just there through everything in just 3–4 days, it felt like a group of really close friends the amount of love and support we got from the community was honestly so special just feeling very, very grateful for all of it

@Sunrise_DeFi Khair mubarak

Eid Mubarak to everyone celebrating. Wishing you peace, prosperity, and a fresh start.

And that's a wrap on ETHMumbai 2026. mandal aapla aabhari aahe 🙏

@0xKshitij1525 @ethmumbai @BitGo @ensdomains @0xOutpost @Starknet Congratulations!

my @ethmumbai weekend recap: > won 2nd place at the hackathon (@BitGo privacy track) > also won a bounty from @ensdomains > @0xOutpost reunion with the bois > attended @Starknet blitz (insane work by the team for making Starkzap, has made building with Starknet effortless) > hacked, ate delicious food & explored mumbai with @prathadox > 6 hours of sleep in 3 days > met amazing people & made memories to cherish ps: still dont know how we won, the judge literally smirked (i lost faith) when i said we hardcoded a few values in db (the zk proofs which we used for demo) because of the hackathon time limit

maybe it’s time to move to a smaller town, slow down, and live a peaceful life

@eshpvt Congratulations!

skipped ethmumbai (to get married)

@chainyoda Indeed

The best coffee in the world

@blockchainbalak Good luck Prakarsh!

Next Chapter If you were to ask me which moment divided my life into before and after, I would tell you: it was the day I joined Spheron, the day we began building something from nothing. For most, Spheron is a company. For me, it became something harder to name - a place where I left pieces of myself. I gave it what I could. Not everything was visible. Much of it never will be. But I knew, in the quiet way one knows such things, that I had offered it my fullest effort. Now I am stepping aside - not leaving, but changing shape. From co-founder to core-contributor. The distinction matters to me, even if it is difficult to explain. Prashant & Mitrashish. What we shared is not easily summarized. I learned from you both in ways I am still understanding. I hope we find ourselves, someday, at the beginning of something again. I wish Spheron every success. I mean this the way one means the things that cost something to say.

Join @RichRines, @jacqmelinek, and @RumeelHussain live this Friday with @TokenRelations. We're covering Core's latest updates, what's ahead, and a major technical upgrade in the works. 👀 🗓️ Mar 20 | 12:15 EST 🎥 Live on X and YouTube

@KsBhuvana @ethmumbai it really feels like family 🫶 missing it already 😭

Had the BEST time with the BEST people 🫶 Mitra Mandal truly feels like family now, and these are memories I know I’ll always hold close and look back on with so muchh love. Loved being part of @ethmumbai handling social media. It gave me the chance to learn soo much from everyone on the team, and I’m deeply grateful for that. A special mention to all the volunteers and sponsors too, whose support made all of this possible. Pudhchya varshi lavkar ya @ethmumbai!

@txnuushree @ethmumbai so so grateful ❤️

it’s finally sinking in what we pulled off. not just over the last few days, but the better part of a year. 500+ people buying tickets, hackers showing up. scaling wasn’t easy, but proud how it turned out. grateful to everyone who showed up for @ethmumbai 2026. mitra mandal❤️

@Parthm71 @ethmumbai so grateful to have you at ethmumbai 🫶 sleep well!

Finally going to sleep peacefully knowing we pulled off one of the BEST conference and hackathon right in the middle of a brutal market Proud of My Mitra Mandal Gratitude to everyone @ethmumbai ❤️

@veekay_21 veekay you killed it 🔥 so proud of youuu

eth mumbai has definitely been a bright spot for me in a month full of darkness. at the start: terrified and anxious coupled with sleepless nights. at the end: fulfilled, exhausted and extremely grateful. coordinating with 50+ speakers, having everything in place leading up to the event, ensuring everything runs on time, virtually sharing the same space with vitalik for 20 minutes, generally making sure the conference experience is top. the list is not exhaustive. I want to extend my gratitude to all the speakers, sponsors and attendees for making it come alive. and obviously the whole of mitra mandal. every one has been through a lot, despite that every one showed up, and played a part. and I couldn't be more grateful. ❤️ @ethmumbai

how it started vs how its going

@kashvii @ethmumbai @boundless_xyz loved everything here so much!

@skivthecreator @ethmumbai @Parthm71 @AniketRaikar06 @jasneet2003 Oh wowwww this is gold 🫶

ethmumbai took us back to a time when there was no uber that BEST bus ride through the city was really fun loved it <3

@0xAdnan14 @ethmumbai 🙌🙌🙌

Just wrapped up volunteering at @ethmumbai 2026 I was on ground surviving on: - 2-4 hours of sleep. - One single dose of caffeine - Pure adrenaline. Somehow it was equally tiring and fun. Every minute was worth it That kind of chaos is also what makes events like this special. You get to see the raw side of how things come together Got to bond with the @ethmumbai team. Huge shoutout to the people who pulled this off! @0xvelhal @AniketRaikar06 @thisischandresh @Serkarx @shreyaveee @poojaasanwal @JiniaNayak @Parthm71 @txnuushree @veekay_21 @KsBhuvana @crypt0xbini Another cool moment was getting the chance to meet the @EFDevcon team. @candufaz ended up teaching me a bit of Spanish during our conversation and @OrnellaWeb3 dropped in some alphas for the upcoming @EFDevcon happening in Mumbai As a volunteer I had the chance to connect with the hackers and judges alike. Connected with @nanditmehra @supremebattak @0xSmit @harpaljadeja post the judging session, while we sipped over some coffee. Another great time I had with the @ensdomains team who were one of the sponsors for the hack. Had a great time vibin with @HAPPYS1NGH, glad to reconnect with him. The most positive guy ;). Had a convo with @dhaiwat10, shared some insights on his dev journey and how the dev scene rn has changed a lot Then came the end of the journey. The closing ceremony and the announcement of the winners. So glad that me mates @nainasachdev11 @KulsumWajiha @0xsoydev @tanzil_sayed22 secured a win at the @ethmumbai Hack. Quite proud of em!! By the end was cooked but satisfied. Contributing at @ethmumbai made me feel as if I have truly contributed to something significant My experience at @ethmumbai made me realize that it's just a precursor for the upcoming grand @EFDevcon My biggest takeaway: being on ground changes your perspective. building and talking about crypto online is one thing, but when you’re physically there seeing the pressure, the deadlines and when everything finally comes together it hits different. That kind of dopamine is real.
