POV you are coding during the year of 2026.5

The interesting thing about $XNT, is you can’t actually get any good amount of it. Most of it is staked and getting distributed to validators. A friend of mine tried to buy XNT for $0.35, ended up moving the price to $0.45. x1prism.com/token/x1/So111… $XNT isn’t on any of the CEXs or even a Dexstreamer. Imagine what would happen when it gets there.

Summer is coming. #X1 will be top 5 blockchain, no one can stop us. XEN is an organizing force, X1 is the playground for all. x1.xyz

X1 validators jump over 10% to 2,200 block producers.

X1 Bridge has its first token $DGN which exists on both Solana and X1 enabled for transfers... app.bridge.x1.xyz

Introducing xChat -- X1's fully end-to-end encrypted messaging service secured by your wallet's private keys, check it out here: staging-vero.x1.xyz/xchat

#X1 launched 100 days ago. Today we have the largest number of SVM block producers in the world. Let this sink in. explorer.fortiblox.com

Introducing VERO Staking (only on #X1): Vero is a prediction market platform. People trade on whether Bitcoin goes up or down, whether SOL hits a certain price, things like that. Every trade pays a fee. Think of it as Binary outcome DEX, settling every 15 minutes. Half of all trading fees go to stakers. That's the entire model. You deposit XNT, you earn a share of every trade that happens on the platform. Your share is proportional to how much you staked versus the total pool. Current yield is running around 135% APR. This comes from real trading activity, not token emissions or inflation. More people trade, more you earn. Simple as that. How it works in practice: You stake 1000 XNT into a pool of 4000 XNT total. You now own 25% of the pool. Every 15 minutes, the system distributes accumulated trading fees. Your cut is 25% of whatever got distributed. Your rewards accumulate automatically. Claim them whenever you want. A few things worth knowing: 5% fee when you deposit. At current yields this takes about 2 weeks to earn back. Distributions run every 15 minutes automatically. No manual claiming needed to accumulate rewards. Your yield depends entirely on trading volume. High volume periods mean higher returns. Slow periods mean lower returns. Nothing is guaranteed. This is DeFi. Your keys, your funds, your responsibility. The contracts are on-chain and verifiable. Stake XNT. Earn trading fees. Withdraw when you want. That's Vero staking.

📢 ALERT While working on the $XEN stats page and looking through a bunch of batch mint transactions on mainnet, something didn’t add up. There was a new TX from an address tagged endxen.eth, that interacted with a newly deployed smart contract: L1-RPA1-XEN_Batch_Minter (something I never indexed before). This wallet had initiated a 100-VMU #XEN mints at the total cost was 0.0000213 ETH. That’s $0.04 at current gas prices. To be clear, this is a transaction that should cost no less than 0.00578 ETH ($11), even with optimized contracts like Cointool, MCT, or XENFT. My first thought was that 'This has to be some Etherscan miscalculation', but after triple-checking, it seems legit. So what happened? After decompiling and reviewing the L1-RPA1(XEN BATCH MINTER) contract bytecode, it looks like endxen.eth exploited a known function of how the EVM handles call depth + memory gas refunds and used in conjunction with CREATE2 to spin minimal proxy clones. Basically, the contract deploys a batch of ephemeral minting proxies — each using a pre-calculated salt — which executes the XEN claimRank() call just before self-destructing. The exploit is that these proxy contracts avoid permanent storage writes by encoding the VMU index and term inside calldata, eliminating the need for SSTORE ops entirely. This results in ~30x lower gas cost per VMU. Looking at the individual mints, all of them are set to 15 days term, but at 30x lower cost, it's an equivalent of minting for 450 days. The new smart contract is stateless after execution — no persistent contract registry, no ownership, no external dependencies. Once the batch is complete and XEN claimed, the base contract self-destructs, leaving virtually no trace except for the claimRank emissions on-chain. So far, it looks like the address has only used this method a couple of time, but now that the bytecode’s public, it’s only a matter of time before others start replicating it. Still reading? Good. Because… happy april fools’ day. This story is entirely made up. The contract L1-RPA1? (come on, flip it)! The XEN smart contract is immutable, fully audited, and has been running for over 900 days without a single exploit. It’s a trustless, permissionless, self-custodial protocol — no admin keys, no backdoors, just clean, minimal (under 400 lines of code), open-source smart contract logic. So no, there’s no way to mint 100 VMUs at max term for the cost of a single transaction. The only way to get a cheaper mint is by catching sub-0.4 gwei! XEN is all about Proof of Participation - just you, the blockchain, and the time you're willing to wait. #StayXEN #xenpub #X1 $XNT

If you're in pulsechain, pivot to X1 testnet.

I'm proud to be a supporter of @mrJackLevin 's X1 fork of Solana. Will be revealing a compelling app on X1 and Sol very soon.

Privacy wins. Tornado Cash is legal. Now Roman Storm (@rstormsf) and Alexey Pertsev (@alex_pertsev) should be immediately freed, pardoned, and reimbursed by the state for their invalid prosecution.
