zkSYS TESTNET IS LIVE! 🚀 Today marks the beginning of a new chapter for Syscoin, and the secure blockchain world. Devs can now access the zkSYS testnet environment, get hands on with the infrastructure, and start building & testing today! ⏺️🔊 Join us LIVE on Spaces RIGHT NOW (16:00 UTC) for the full breakdown and open Q&A: 👉 x.com/i/spaces/1nxeL… 👈 📰 Everything you need to know: syscoin.org/news/zksys-gen… Eleven years of infrastructure. This is what it was building toward. $SYS: The Final Ledger

Proof of Builders is rapidly evolving. From 35 builders in a university classroom to 800 in a single cohort. Now the pipeline moves beyond campuses and into the real world. PoB V wasn’t the peak. It was the signal. Next stop: Trujillo. Where builders meet institutions. This is how ecosystems actually scale.

The Proof of Builders V participants built governance and e-government tools on Syscoin's Bitcoin-backed infrastructure. While their projects are being reviewed, the broader signal is already clear: LatAm builders are choosing to solve real institutional problems, and they are choosing this infrastructure to solve them on.

Peru's official government newspaper, El Peruano (@DiarioElPeruano), the country's most authoritative institutional outlet, has published a column today by our Director of LatAm, Fernando Paredes (@DevElCuy). This editorial space reflects Syscoin's growing role in Peru's national conversation on modernizing democratic processes. Fernando lays out, in plain language, how artificial intelligence and blockchain infrastructure can make every tally sheet transparent and easy for any citizen to verify. By integrating these tools into the public process, results become faster and more reliable, doubt is reduced, and the integrity of the citizen's voice is strengthened. There's only one chain in blockchain with the required infrastructure to secure nations, and that's Syscoin. Read the full column here: elperuano.pe/noticia/294813…

AI & DEMOCRACY Who controls the truth? Community, we're proud to share that this Wednesday, May 6, our Director of LatAm Fernando Paredes (@DevElCuy) will take the stage as a featured speaker at a special CLIE session exploring how artificial intelligence is reshaping political information, public perception, and the way people vote. This won't be a theoretical conversation. The panel will demonstrate it live. 🎯 4 real-time experiments: ✅ AI creating political candidates in real time ✅ Fake news vs. real news: can you tell the difference? ✅ Manipulated videos that are becoming harder to identify ✅ How AI can influence your vote without you noticing 🎤 Speakers: ▸Ricardo Prieto, Paraguayan Blockchain Chamber ▸Fernando Paredes, Director of LatAm, Syscoin 🎙️ Moderators: ▸Karla Agüero, Horizonte Blockchain ▸Alejandro Mandujano, GBA Global Ops 📅 Wednesday, May 6 🕖 7:00 PM, Mexico and Costa Rica 🕗 8:00 PM, Peru and Colombia 🕙 10:00 PM, Paraguay 💻 Via Zoom, free to attend 🔗 Register here: luma.com/i0jcwhhm We'd love to see the community show up for this one. It's an urgent conversation for anyone tracking the intersection of AI, blockchain, democracy, and the future of digital trust. See you Wednesday 🙌

PoB I was 35 people. PoB V was 800. That is not exponential marketing. That is a community that found infrastructure it believes in and brought its network. Five iterations of consistency. That is what @DevElCuy's team has been building and it is compounding. Don't miss VI.

800 builders showed up to PoB V. Most of the people who will use what they created are not builders themselves. If you believe that public records should be transparent & permanent, that governance tools should be verifiable, that institutions should have infrastructure they can actually trust, then you are part of why this matters. You do not have to build it to want it to exist.

The PoB V teams were building tools for public institutions: governance, elections, public records, e-government. Builders in Lima chose these problems before they were assigned. That tells you something about where LatAm's developer community sees the real demand.

El día de ayer vivimos una jornada histórica en la UCV en Lima. La energía durante el onboarding presencial para la quinta iteración de nuestra hackathon fue simplemente increíble. Ver a un auditorio repleto de talento listo para aprender, conectar y empezar a construir soluciones reales sobre nuestro entramado, nos confirma que el futuro tecnológico de la región está en excelentes manos. Gracias a todos los asistentes por demostrar su compromiso con la innovación y el desarrollo descentralizado. #Syscoin #Hackathon #Web3

Fernando, Syscoin Director of Latam estuvo en el programa Hola MYPE de BHTV conversando sobre el impacto de la tecnología blockchain en los negocios a nivel nacional. Durante la entrevista se expuso de manera clara cómo las soluciones descentralizadas pueden integrarse en diversos negocios, optimizando sus procesos y preparándolas para la nueva economía digital.

@syscoin @HorizonteBlock @DevElCuy Any statement on why bitget are delisting you?

Proof of Builders V began yesterday. Universidad Cesar Vallejo Lima. 800 builders. Governance and e-government as the theme. 1,000 USDT in on-chain prizes. The largest Syscoin builder event in LatAm to date. @horizonteblock @DevElCuy 🧵

Proof of Builders V happened. 800 builders. One auditorium. Governance and e-government tools built on Syscoin infrastructure. The projects are being reviewed. The teams will be announced. Watch @horizonteblock and @DevElCuy for the results of this week.

It is happening. 800 builders at UCV SJL building governance and e-government tools on Syscoin infrastructure right now. Follow @horizonteblock and @Syscoin_Hispano for live coverage. @DevElCuy is on the ground. This is what four iterations of Proof of Builders has been building toward.

This is not the peak. PoB VI is at the Fintech Trujillo Summit, May 22-24. The builder pipeline is moving north. The institutional context is growing. The infrastructure is the same. Come build on it.

@horizonteblock has been coordinating the university relationships, venue logistics, and community infrastructure that made today possible. They are the organizational backbone of everything happening in Peru right now. Give them a follow if you have not already!
