If you're building a dApp in 2026 and your chain is capturing more value than you are, then you're building on the wrong infrastructure.

@Nerochain_io's Blockspace 2.0 fixes this.

Fee redistribution toward applications.

Programmable economic environments.

Token utility that goes beyond speculation.
Builders keep what they build.

That's the difference.

[NERO Chain @Nerochain_io]

NERO Chain is the self-sovereign economy layer where applications control their own on-chain economies.

@Nerochain_io about to grab a piece of that $20b+ market

[NERO Chain @Nerochain_io]

Regulators across three continents are phasing out SMS OTP.

Singapore and India included.

The $20B+ enterprise authentication market is being structurally rebuilt - and the replacement needs to be hardware-anchored, privacy-preserving, and compliant from day one.

Learn more about the PoSIM Architecture on NERO Chain:

Zero-knowledge proofs verify facts without revealing them.

- Prove you are over 21 - without sharing your birthdate.
- Prove you are a resident - without sharing your address.
- Prove you are human - without revealing your identity.

The verification travels. The data stays local.

We're proud to announce that StoneX Group Inc. (NASDAQ: SNEX) - a Fortune 100 financial services firm and one of the world's leading precious metals dealers, has approved NERO Chain as a counterparty.

StoneX joins us as our institutional liquidity partner for gold, opening the path for LBMA-grade physical gold to be accessible on @Nerochain_io

This is exactly the kind of bridge our RWA-first strategy was built to create: traditional institutional liquidity meeting a regulated, on-chain settlement layer.

NeroChain is registered as a Digital Currency Exchange and VASP with AUSTRAC (DCE100888792-001) - Australia's first regulated Layer 1.

More to come. Follow for launch updates!

June is shaping up to be an important month for @Nerochain_io ⏳

Infrastructure development continues to advance, ecosystem momentum is growing, and new opportunities for builders, partners, and the community are taking shape across the network.

Stay close.

More updates, more progress, and more reasons to be excited are on the way! 🔥

Solana hosted the largest crypto hackathon ever

Colosseum Frontier, broken down 👇

📊 Relevant data:

• 2,857 submissions
• 19,040 registered participants
• 165 countries
• 45 judges
• +81% vs the previous Colosseum hackathon
• +166% vs the first Colosseum hackathon

🌍 Top 5 countries by registrations:

• India: 6,656
• Indonesia: 1,467
• Nigeria: 1,410
• Brazil: 1,088
• US: 962

👥 Participants breakdown:

• New users: 16,034
• Returning users: 3,006
- Students: 1,563
- Non-students: 17,477

After mapping every project logo, I wanted to look at where builders are actually spending their time 👇

🧩 Category breakdown:

• Consumer/Social: 607
• AI: 540
• DeFi: 515
• Infra: 279
• Payments/Fintech: 255
• Gaming: 148
• Security/Privacy: 147
• Verticals: 137
• RWA: 98
• Data/Governance: 83
• Wallets: 48

Consumer/Social, AI and DeFi alone account for 1,662 projects

That is more than 58% of all Frontier submissions

The top categories are all very close to users, user behavior and actual product usage

🏆 Winners will be announced around June 23, but the full project list already says a lot

With this many projects across so many verticals, there is a real chance that more than one of them will matter in the next phase of Solana

Good luck to all the builders.

The judges have a very hard job ahead.

I put them all in one image

Looks like an entire ecosystem
But it’s a single hackathon

Build on Solana.
