In moments like this, coordination matters more than competition.
Respect to Tether and Circle for acting fast to protect users. Crypto needs more of this kind of collaboration when it matters most.

If Hyperliquid can leverage NYSE/ICE’s institutional relationships and liquidity to further strengthen its liquidity network effects, it’ll have a significant competitive moat around perps.
Growing up in the United States, NYSE was synonymous with the story of American capitalism. I vividly remember learning about the Buttonwood agreement in 9th grade history class. 24 stockbrokers met under a tree on Wall Street and formed the beginning of what would become the world's financial center. From pits to computers to now onchain markets, America has always led the way in innovating markets to improve price discovery and capital formation. Today the next chapter begins with ICE, trade[XYZ], and Hyperliquid.
ICE started as an electricity-trading platform in 2000, growing to acquire NYSE itself in only 13 years. It is a key infrastructure provider of America’s energy, bond, and mortgage markets. ICE is a rare story of exponential growth of a financial giant over decades, continually embracing innovation and technology.
trade[XYZ] was the first HIP-3 deployer and responsible for spearheading the flourishing global RWA perpetual market today. Only a year ago, trade[XYZ] launched its first RWA perpetual markets. They took a bet on HIP-3, which had just launched after months of tireless development. Having followed their journey from day 1, I cannot overstate how much Shoku and the team have poured into growing these markets to a genuine source of price discovery for the most important assets in the world.
Over the past three years, Hyperliquid has pioneered onchain infrastructure to house all of finance. Hyperliquid is nothing without its world-class builders. I am honored that trade[XYZ] and ICE have chosen to build on Hyperliquid to bring perpetual contracts to America.
When I first spoke to Jeff Sprecher around a year ago, he asked what success looks like to me. I thought for some time and joked that it would be seeing ICE building on Hyperliquid's technology. I could never have predicted the progress that we've made as a community in a single year to make this come true. Excited to see what we can build together next.

Sebi talks about advice his friends gave him on taking breaks from trading and stepping away from the computer. 🗣️
“They were like, ‘Yo, you gotta, like, get out, you know? Stop being on your computer all that shit.’”
He recalls how his friends encouraged him to make time for the gym, walks, sports, and hanging out with people. Sometimes, taking a few hours away from the trenches is worth it because there will always be another opportunity. 🤝

Let's be real, the biggest bottleneck for prediction markets and onchain finance right now is securely pulling off-chain data without completely nuking user privacy. @primus_labs is literally stepping up to fix this massive headache using zkTLS.
Their latest collaboration with Cournot Protocol is way more than just another generic "we are thrilled to announce" PR stunt. Bringing verifiable web evidence on-chain without doxxing the end user changes the whole dynamic.
Think about the bigger picture here: perfectly verified off-chain data feeding into prediction markets and private credit protocols, all while preserving strict zero-knowledge privacy. No blind trust assumptions, just pure cryptographic proof.
They are actually shipping the infrastructure for the next wave of verifiable onchain finance while others just talk about it. If you're paying attention to the zkTLS narrative and where DeFi is heading, fading what this team is building is probably a bad idea.

What makes @RebateLaunch interesting to me is how the rewards work. Every buy gets a 3% bonus, and holders receive USDG payouts several times a day without staking or claiming. Built on Robinhood Chain, this is a launchpad model worth paying attention to.
Most launchpads make you buy first and hope for the best, but @RebateLaunch takes a different approach 👀
Every buy comes with a 3% bonus, while holders receive USDG payouts directly to their wallets. No staking, no claiming, just holding.
That’s a model worth watching

Been thinking a lot about the weird tradeoff we still live with in crypto
The most useful data trading history, bank balances, credit info, agent API calls, proof of reserves is almost always private.
The moment you want to use it onchain or prove something about it, you usually have to leak way more than you want.
@primus_labs is trying to kill that tradeoff.
They built a privacy and verification layer that plugs into existing chains instead of asking everyone to move to a new one. Two core pieces:
- zkTLS: You can prove that data really came from a real HTTPS/TLS source (a bank, CEX, AI API, whatever) without showing the actual content or needing the server to change anything. Its basically “this response is authentic” without exposing the response.
- FHE / zkFHE (they have FHETransform for this): You can compute on encrypted data and still get a proof that the computation was done correctly. Numbers stay hidden by default , only the final authorized result gets revealed.
Together it means institutions, protocols, and AI agents can verify things and compute on sensitive data without exposing everything. Live use cases already include real time proof of reserves , confidential transfers, and making AI agent actions auditable.
Its not a new L1 , Its more like a cryptographic bridge between the open web and onchain systems.

Most Perp DEXs make you farm points and pray.
MegaPop on @popdex_ just pays you every week if you trade.
Fees → prize pool
Trading → tickets
Bitcoin hash → winners
Simple. Brutal. Verifiable.
What I respect: the protocol only wins if traders win. No artificial inflation.
What still feels weak: the gap between big volume traders and consistent smaller ones is still too wide.
If you’re tired of waiting months to find out what your volume was worth, this is worth understanding.

Most people still treat MegaPop like another points system.
It’s not.
On @popdex_ , 40% of real net trading fees go into a public USDT prize pool every week.
You earn Pop Tickets through eligible trading (max 10k per address per cycle).
Every Monday a 6-digit Pop Hash is taken from a Bitcoin block.
Tickets are matched by exact digit + position.
6 matches → 42% of the pool
5 matches → 8% of the pool
4 / 3 / 2 → fixed 100 / 10 / 5 USDT
What I like: the result is verifiable by anyone and the pool only grows if people actually trade.
What I’d improve: show live odds per ticket as the pool size changes. Right now it’s still a bit opaque for smaller traders.
This is one of the cleanest “trade → get paid” loops I’ve seen.

Guys, have you noticed something?
Over the past few days, @1winToken has been dropping some interesting, thought-provoking posts.
First, the message was about expecting something HUGE.
Now, they’re throwing numbers at us: 1,466,491.
And the caption says, “Some numbers mean more than others.”🤔
So, what exactly are they hinting at?
Is there a bigger picture we’re yet to see, or are we about to connect the dots?
One thing is clear: these posts are getting people curious.
What’s your take, guys?
What do you think 1,466,491 means?

Would you put your entire bank statement on a billboard just to prove you have enough money?
That’s one of the strange trade-offs of public onchain finance. @primus_labs
Anyone can inspect a wallet, track transfers, estimate balances, and sometimes even infer a trading strategy just by watching transactions.
For regular users, that’s a privacy concern. For funds and institutions managing large positions, it can become a real operational issue.
That’s one reason I find what Primus Labs is building interesting.
Its approach to confidential finance includes Fully Homomorphic Encryption (FHE), which makes it possible to perform computations directly on encrypted data without first revealing the underlying values.
In simple terms, an application might need to process a balance or transfer amount. But does everyone watching the blockchain really need to see that information?
I don’t think access to a financial service should automatically mean giving up every bit of financial privacy.
Of course, FHE alone doesn’t make an entire application private. Implementation, access controls, and the information still exposed onchain all matter.
Still, the idea behind it is worth thinking about:
Transparency should mean being able to verify what matters, not having to expose everything.
Would you feel more comfortable using DeFi if your financial activity could stay private while still being verifiable?

My vision for the $ITLG Mainnet economy goes beyond distributing tokens. 👀
The upcoming KYC round, transferable ITLG distribution, and Vault mechanism introduce important elements of @inter_link next stage.
But I believe the bigger opportunity lies in what the ecosystem can build around them.
Here's what I'd like to see.
1. Transferability with practical utility
Transferable ITLG creates possibilities for moving tokens and using them within supported parts of the ecosystem.
The next step should be developing useful services that give people genuine reasons to participate.
2. A transparent distribution process
Users should be able to understand eligibility requirements, the role of account metrics, and the official procedures governing distribution.
Clear communication can help build trust during a major transition.
3. A well-defined Vault experience
The Vault could become an important part of the ecosystem for users interested in staking ITLG and receiving vITLG.
Clear information about rewards, conditions, and risks should accompany that opportunity.
4. Useful applications
Imagine future integrations that connect ITLG with digital identity, applications, services, and participating businesses.
These are possibilities worth exploring, but each would require implementation and genuine demand.
5. Sustainable participation
A healthy ecosystem should give users, developers, and businesses reasons to contribute beyond short-term incentives.
That means building products people find useful, creating transparent rules, and rewarding genuine participation.
InterLink has also mentioned the possibility of ITLG serving as a reserve asset in the future. That is an ambitious direction, but it remains a potential role rather than an established function.
For me, the long-term measure of success is straightforward.
Can InterLink turn a growing network of users into an ecosystem where people have meaningful reasons to participate, transact, build, and return?
Token distribution can be an important milestone. Lasting utility is what I would want to see develop alongside it.
That's the future I'd like to see for $ITLG.
If you could choose one priority for the Mainnet economy, would it be practical utility, transparent distribution, developer adoption, or business integration? Why?

@quipnetwork is getting closer to mainnet
accounts, swaps, points, compute subnets and QVM are already running on testnet.
now the focus is on the external chain audit before mainnet.
there’s also a QVM AMA tomorrow with cadillion, rcarback and megamanispeaks.
if you’ve been following Quip’s post-quantum work, this is a good chance to ask questions directly.

one audit left. how soon do you think we’ll see mainnet?

The more I look into privacy infrastructure, the more I think one part gets overlooked:
Privacy is useful, but verification is what makes it trustworthy.
You can keep sensitive information hidden, but how do you prove that the information is authentic without revealing the actual data?
That’s what caught my attention about @primus_labs
Its approach combines zkTLS and FHE around a simple idea: off-chain information should be verifiable, while sensitive data can remain private during computation.
zkTLS can help prove that data came from a legitimate Web2 source, without exposing the underlying credentials or information.
FHE takes the privacy side further by allowing computation on encrypted data.
The combination becomes especially interesting for things like AI agents, institutional finance, confidential vaults and on-chain applications that need both privacy and reliable data.
This is the part of Primus I’m spending more time understanding.
Because if Web3 is going to interact with more real-world data, I think the question won’t just be “Can we keep the data private?”
It will also be:
“Can we verify it without having to expose it?”
That’s a much more interesting problem to solve.

An NFT linked to a financial agent introduces a question that ordinary collectibles rarely face: what happens to the account when ownership changes?
@meetmotes describes a model where each Motes NFT maps to an agent identity and a dedicated smart account.
But the NFT and the account serve different purposes.
The NFT identifies ownership, while the account is designed to hold assets and enforce permissions.
That distinction becomes critical when an NFT has funded positions, outstanding debt or pending transactions.
A transfer could change who controls the associated account, depending on the final contract and settlement rules.
That is why funded transfers need clear handling for open positions, liabilities and active agent permissions.
A collectible transfer should never be assumed to be financially neutral.
For NFT-based financial agents, ownership mapping is only one part of the design. Safe transfer and settlement logic matter just as much.
