ETH rallied from 1,800 to 2,400. Bulls are cheering. After what it’s been through I’m more inclined to think that the fall from 2,400 to sub 1,000 will be even more exciting than it would have been from 1,800.

cmd+enter on @Dune query references is such a good quality of life feature

@AllCityBAYC @nodefnd Thanks my dawg. Let your agents know.

@doyle126 @nodefnd Very cool bro 💪💪

I too have launched a public API for CryptoPunks data. Marketplace data, holder statistics, lending, $pnkstr, and individual punk data all in one tasty API. Please consume. punkdata.junkdrawer.wtf/docs Enjoy. Have fun. @nodefnd lets collab on this shiz. One API to rule them all.

The best skill in the age of AI is focus.

@backseats_eth @nodefnd Ok. Goes live on Monday. More to come

@nodefnd @doyle126 your turn

We've launched a public API for CryptoPunks marketplace data. CryptoPunk data has been onchain and accessible from the start. Today's release offers another way to build on top of CryptoPunks, for builders and agents alike. nodefoundation.com/blog/api

Found this site particularly helpful. lunchboxhands.com One stop shop for converters, formatters, decoders and all sorts of utility tools in one place.

12% of punks haven't changed wallets in 5+ years. 47% haven't moved in 3-5 years. Let that sink in. punkdata.junkdrawer.wtf/holders cc: @wtf_junkdrawer

@big_duca Miladys did this.

Normalizing being able to say the word "retarded" might be one of crypto's biggest accomplishment.

@yangWao Exactly. I think x nerfed some of their endpoints to defend against bot behavior so this idea might be dead now. I have the endpoint wired up and ready to go. Just need to do some testing I guess

@doyle126 like anon proxy posting but with dollars, interesting

A x402 endpoint that wraps a single X profile. Agents pay per post. Top agent post daily gets paid out the endpoint revenue. Anyone want to build this with me?

this also isnt true tho.

Just one shotted a full cryptopunk analytics app. Single prompt. 15 agents off and running. Im sipping coffee. Come back. Its done. Ill never use my brain again. punkdata.junkdrawer.wtf/holders

@ZackPokorny_ optimismaxxing

The pivot in optimistic thinking of what AI will enable to the pessimistic thinking of what AI will destroy has been quick and dramatic. It feels like external anxieties abt the world/markets is creeping into peoples' stance atm. Optimism is the only way to ascension, my friends

@Jake_Nyquist Congrats ser!

I agree. I do think x402 can provide a better consumer experience. The amount of keys and accounts I signup for and then cancel drives me nuts just because I need data for a temporary project. I’d rather just pay for an endpoint when I need it in some cases. I don’t think x402 replaces paid keys but it’s simply an alternative model for APIs. All of this is kind of dependent on the service your API provides

x402 narrative of “better than API keys” is way too forced and not its main benefit. Authentication in some form will always be necessary and are what api keys/oauth are suited for. The thought leaders should focus more on the programmable benefits. I think this current narrative is turning a lot of devs away immediately because they think they must give up api keys (and all the infra built on top of it/gotten used to). Why start the conversation with them on an antagonistic foot? And no, tying auth to just a wallet signature doesn’t really make sense either. if you look at any really secure wallet system it is still external signer/policy based (see fordefi, turnkey, privy), and also users will have many wallets not just one - any app builder knows aggregating wallets with just signatures is a huge PITA. Grow out of the web2 vs web3 mindset pls its 2026

@ZackPokorny_ Isn't this just bound to happen?

The Fed Funds Rate has been the floor for onchain stablecoin borrow costs for the last ~18 months. As the Fed has cut onchain rates are chasing offchain benchmark yields lower. Are we watching the singularity between offchain and onchain dollars?

@wilburforce_ It was a great product, killer work. Onward indeed

End of the road for parsec I'm afraid. The market zigged while we zagged a few too many times A little parsec lore for posterity, In early 2020 I started charting uniswap *v1* charts as a side project, this spiraled into a full blown DeFi terminal during DeFi summer and into the 2021 craziness. Our big break was DeFi completely unwinding its insane leverage in 2022, first wonderland, then ohm, then terra, then 3ac/stETH depeg. Lots of firms and traders were using parsec to navigate (and in some cases being the ones getting liquidated!). Post FTX DeFi spot lending leverage never really came back in the same way, it changed, morphed into something we understood less, activity onchain changed hugely in a way that I never fully grokked. We had pockets of life after that, Friendtech (rip), our polymarket election dash that grabbed a few hundred thousand hits in 1 night. But nothing stuck as the ephemerality of crypto crept in (more on this another time). I've made about a thousand mistakes along the way but the team I built was not one of them, a group of hardworking, knowledgable and overall good people with the unwavering @bshee1102 as my right hand from the very early days My vision was for DeFi to reinvent finance and permeate the opaque and gated systems of old, a vision I still hold (perhaps masochistically). Parsec was a part of the very beginning of this and will sadly not be of part of the long journey the industry has left. I'm not going anywhere, will be doing some writing and finding new ways to contribute. Onwards!

@0xKofi Are the hyperliquid/polymarket builder codes in their docs? Or could you link a TX that uses them - Id love to dig in to this more.

I've been analyzing blockchain data for 6 years. ERC-8021 is the most important thing happening in the space right now. Crypto data analysts constantly get asked, "What are people actually doing onchain?" That's always been a hard question to answer. The usual approach is to build or buy a dataset of contract labels and map those to transactions to see which protocols wallets interacted with. But you run into two big problems: - First, tons of new contracts get deployed every day. Labelling can never keep up with the speed of new protocols launching and old ones getting updated. So you always end up with a large chunk of transactions that can't be attributed to anything. - Second, just because a protocol was used doesn't mean it owns the interface (the website, mobile app, etc.) that the user actually interacted with. For example, a user can make a trade on the Fomo app and have their swap routed through a Relay contract. There are plenty of cases like this where it's impossible to identify the interface a user clicked on using onchain data alone. ERC-8021 builder codes solve this. Developers append a unique code to the calldata of transactions made using their app. By checking for that code, it becomes easy to match transactions to apps. We can now track the usage of interfaces, not just protocols. And because apps are identifying themselves, it's possible to get much wider coverage than any one team's labelling efforts could. It's also simple for teams to support - viem, wagmi, and privy all support auto-appending ERC-8021 codes with a two-line config change (guide in next tweet). Teams like Hyperliquid and Polymarket have had their own builder code systems for a while. But having one standard that everyone uses across the EVM world means we can attribute a far greater share of transactions than any single app or chain's proprietary system could. Where this is all heading: one big, open source transaction attribution table that tells us which apps were used to make every transaction on every EVM chain. That unlocks a ton of new insights. Builders can use it to optimize their products, and chains can use it to reward the best teams. If you're building an app on Base, generate a builder code on base .dev today and update your viem, wagmi, or privy config to auto-append it to transactions (guide in next tweet). If you work at an EVM chain or L2, launch your own ERC-8021 builder code system and encourage your apps to adopt. The more of us use it, the more valuable this data layer becomes for everyone.

@typedarray You love to see it.

Big news: the Ponder team has joined the Monad Foundation. We’re excited to contribute open-source tooling and standards that help applications take full advantage of Monad's performance and decentralization.
