Hardwares are internally exploited. $200 tech gets compromised. Here's how Coldstar makes that impossible:
Coldstar retweeted
Turn any USB stick you already own into a hardware wallet with @coldstar_sol:
keys decrypted only in memory, offline QR signing, open source, one-line install, 1% fee capped at $10.
Three-quarters of a million dollars signed in its first ten weeks, according to the team. W!

Next picks from the @colosseum Crypto World’s Fair. This time: Infrastructure, Security & Privacy.🛡️Here is my personal pick 👇
Security:
@coldstar_sol - turns any USB drive into an offline signer for Solana. Your keys exist for a split second, then they are gone
@hackhackai - AI security audits built by Solana auditors and checked with real exploit tests
@ProofOfExploit - smart contract audits for early Solana teams that are affordable and can be trusted
@iris_intel_app - shows who is really behind a wallet or a token, and follows stolen money across chains
Stakeward by @alexandr_zhibul - keeps your staked SOL safe, even if someone steals your wallet key
Privacy:
@VisionSwapSol - a private pool, live on Solana mainnet. Send and trade with no link back to you
@TiraiProtocol - private, quantum-safe transfers between Solana and Ethereum for institutions
Puddle by @staycloakedxyz - makes onchain privacy as easy as a normal crypto transfer
p!pon by @Yu_Ayato - prove facts from your ID card, like “over 20”, without showing your name or birthday
@arcane_finance - privacy and compliance in one stack for company payments, payroll and treasury
@Valiron_grade - identity and reputation for AI agents, so businesses know which agents to trust
@akcanetwork - a VPN for people under censorship.
Developer Infrastructure:
@nori_zk - Solana programs can read Ethereum data with ZK proofs, no oracle or multisig needed
SPIN by @payritHQ - payments without internet. Phones with bank apps in Africa connect over Bluetooth
@CatScope_io - fights MEV centralization on Solana with an open market for validator access
@predictefy - one API for 16+ prediction markets, including Polymarket and Kalshi
@pantahq - build your own prediction market app through one API
@tuwa_io - open-source toolkit for wallet login and tracking transactions on Solana and EVM
@soda_labs_ - any Solana wallet or program can own an address on other chains, with no bridge
Ballista by @jacobdotsol - save complex multi-step Solana transactions as templates you can use again
@raptor_trade - real-time Solana market data, very fast and much cheaper

Ladies and gentlemen, builders, believers, victims, suspects, and ecosystem dreamers...
The October Ecosystem Call is LIVE!
Join us for your monthly dose of Solana dopamine. xitter.gq/i/broadcasts/2dKdoLdaX…
For transparency: we sold $COLD after feeling we weren’t receiving the support we expected from EasyA.
Our tokens were locked 2 months ago. We reassessed our position and sold.
The subsequent pump was organic market activity and wasn’t the reason for our sale.
We have just submitted for @colosseum 🔥
Entering the arena with a strong community, amazing traction and a solid team.
Good luck to everyone!

CastleDAO, in their own words 🏰
Two weeks on, we’re looking back at some of the builders who called @cstldao home.
Meet some of the residents ⬇️
What’s happening this week:
iOS still in development (yes it is taking some time)
Enterprise packages will be rolling out very shortly
@multisig integration releasing to the dApp
Signing flow will receive a new update to ensure converted USB drives can work across any device
Refund update:
We found out that fees weren’t turned off for some wallets.
Wallets have been charged have been refunded.
Thank you for the patience 🙏
Think about it
Privately buy hardware with cash
Privately flash it into a cold signer
Privately store Solana
Privately send Solana
Privately trade Solana
A true complete private workflow
Who else is doing this?
Update on our iOS app:
WE ARE VERY VERY CLOSE!
iOS works a little differently to Android to when interacting with USB drives
We have architected a solution but executing the plan has been quite difficult
As this is an open-source project, are there any devs who can help us?
Guys, this may be one of the most exciting demo days taking place in recent times
Got to know a lot of the founders at the castle over the last week and they're all top tier contenders
Tune in!!
