A guy was ready to drop $1,500 on a new OLED TV because his 3-year-old Smart TV was freezing up and took 5 seconds just to respond to the remote.
He unplugged it. Deleted old apps. Cleared the cache. The lag kept coming back.
He went to Best Buy to get a replacement.
The home theater installer in the blue shirt stopped him: "Before you spend a grand, let me show you something."
He grabbed a remote and shook his head.
"There are 8 hidden tracking settings throttling your TV's processor right now. Manufacturers turn them all on by default. Nobody tells you they exist. Let's fix this."
Here's what he showed him in the next 8 minutes. 🧵
The moment is finally here.
The VPay App is LIVE. 🔥
What started as an idea, to build a complete financial hub and an AI-powered OmniBank native for Web3, has now landed in your hands.
Along the way, thousands of you signed up for our waitlist, dozens of incredible partners joined us on this exciting journey, and together we're building the infrastructure and the foundation of a true crypto-native financial app.
And now… it’s your turn to step inside.
In this v1 version of the app:
- Connect your wallet & open your VPay account
- Instantly generate your VPay Virtual Card
- Top up with USDC (support for more tokens will be rolled out gradually)
- Spend your crypto in real life, anywhere Visa is accepted
This is where the line between Web3 and the real world disappears.
Your crypto isn’t just an asset anymore. It’s buying dinner, paying for rides, booking flights.
And as promised → Early Adopters get their VPay cards at no cost.
- Stake 100k $VPAY to unlock early app access
- Claim your vCard (but be quick, supply is limited and less than the huge waitlist 👀)
The future of finance is here. It’s live. It’s yours.

I’m excited to share that I’ll be stepping in as a core contributor at @Gekko_Agent . This is a huge milestone not just for me, but for the entire project.
Over the coming weeks and months, you’ll see us:
🔧 Strengthening the core tech stack
🚀 Shipping new features faster
🌍 Expanding Gekko’s vision to reach more builders and users
Our mission is simple: make Gekko the go-to platform for finance, savings, and trading in the crypto space.
The foundations are strong, and now it’s time to scale.
Current Gekko Development Roadmap:
Yield ACP - Fully integrating Gekko as a dominant Yield agent in the @virtuals_io ecosystem can go forward.
Gekko Terminal revamp
API calls/twitter tagging - the Gekko community can create yield strategies straight from the twitter feed.
This community has been the backbone of Gekko since day one, and we’re just getting started. The next chapter is about building bigger, moving faster, and creating something the entire ecosystem will be proud of.
Happy to be part of the Base ecosystem, supporting founders with funding, exposure, and helping grow Gekko while driving the Base ecosystem forward.

VPay App Launch: T-Minus 9 Days 🚨
We’re starting things off with the basics to ensure a smooth and simple onboarding experience for the Virgens.
Launching First are:
✅ Wallet Connect
✅ KYC
✅ Virtual Card Issuance
✅ Spend Function (Stables → Real World)
Stakers get priority access, but all virgens will be able to join.
Our goal for this phase is to onboard 5,000 users from the @virtuals_io ecosystem.
The first 1,000 users will unlock immense benefits.
After the initial onboarding wave, new features will start rolling out immediately on a weekly basis. Once battle-tested by the users and proven, we'll move on to the next ones.
Phase 2: In-App Swap Function
VPay is fundamentally designed to support all EVM tokens, but we’ll start with native priority:
→ $VPay
→ $Virtual
→ Our partners and their tokens are the next priority
The first round of our launch partners will be announced in the coming days.
Phase 3: The Reward Layer
→ Card Tier System - Your staking level determines your perks (lower fees, higher rewards)
→ Rewards Program - Initially designed to incentivize $VPay stakers & our partner communities
→ Cashback + Yield through our partner network coming later
Next up will be the Offshore USD accounts and Branded physical cards, and with that we'll be finalizing the "Foundational" stage of our roadmap.
Plans for the subsequent phases will be revealed in the coming weeks.
The basics done right.
Designed to be your go-to financial dashboard from day 1.
