Honestly, $EITHER just had one of the biggest weeks I’ve seen from any Solana project in a long time in terms of news and partnerships.
In a single week:
- Team going to Consensus 2026 with Google cloud CTO and head of community at stripe shilling EITHER to people
- Stripe partnership
- TronDAO partnership
- MoonPay + Moonshot integrations (fiat to prompt is real now)
- Metaplex integrated (SPL tokens, NFTs, presales, DAS explorer, all from a prompt)
- Streamflow added (vesting, airdrops, payroll, escrow native to the stack)
- Definedfi+ Codex doing custom indexing on every EITHER pair (DBC + DAMM V2)
30-day numbers:
987 new users
2,190 apps built
1,510 successful deployments
1 month on Solana and they’re already at 1.5k+ users, Telegram dev bot live. crosschain unlocked.
Call it the Virtuals of Solana idc, the shipping speed is unmatched rn and most of CT hasn’t even noticed yet. EITHER to 9 figures sooner than we think.
‼️Another long term business is closing in Portland Oregon. This is what Hookset Automotive wrote about it…
THE GATES ARE CLOSED. THE DEAL IS DEAD.
Twenty years of loyalty. Twenty years of sacrifice. In 2002, we fell in love with Portland’s heart. We built Hookset Automotive with grease, sweat, and a belief in this community. I traded my dream of being an architect for an oil rag to build an honest business with my husband, JC.
We did everything right. Portland did everything wrong.
I didn’t just run a shop; I served. I led the Parkrose Business Association. I hosted town halls. I stood before the City Council and begged for the law to be enforced. I was trying to save Portland from becoming the next Detroit. I fought for this district until there was nothing left to give.
In return, the city turned on us.
•Financial Extortion: The city didn't just lie; they taxed the shit out of us while doing so. They drained our resources with skyrocketing taxes while providing zero protection in return.
•Betrayal: Mingus Mapps, who once ran Historic Parkrose, used our neighborhood as a political stepping stone to the City Council. He ignored our pleas while drawing a salary meant to protect our streets.
•Slander: When I spoke up about the crime and the "Slough Town" gunfire, neighborhood groups responded with a smear campaign—spreading vile lies about my marriage to silence a woman asking hard questions.
•Sabotage: Last week, our landlord illegally chained the gates shut while we were inside. We were held against our will. When we called 911, the police—the same officers I defended for two decades—looked at us through the fence and called it a "civil issue." They went out of their way to make sure we didn't get help, even contacting the fire department to tell them not to interfere.
Your promise of protection was a lie.
We gave this city our lives, and it gave us a lock and a cold shoulder. We are closing our doors because the basic rules of a civilized society don't apply here anymore. The deal we made with this city—that if you work hard, pay your taxes, and follow the law, you’ll be protected—was a total lie.
To our loyal customers: You were our family. We are devastated it ended this way, but we couldn’t have tried harder. We poured every ounce of our souls into this place, only to be abandoned by the city we tried to save.
Portland, you didn’t just fail us—you threw us away. Keep your "weird." We’re taking our integrity somewhere that actually values it.
The gates are closed for good.

ZKNetwork Project Update - 2026-03-20
Spring equinox. Day and night in balance, and the light begins to lead. In regenerative systems, these thresholds matter: accumulated energy finds its form and starts to move. What grew roots in the dark reaches for light.
For ZKNetwork, this moment carries particular resonance. After seasons of deep research, iterative testnet deployments, hardware prototyping, and the careful composition of a privacy-first technology stack, the project emerges from the encrypted quiet of construction into visible expression.
➡️ The Dawn of Regenerative Privacy Infrastructure
Our latest article maps where ZKNetwork stands, what it has built, and where the architecture points next:
Dual-Layer Architecture: ZKNetwork’s infrastructure follows the pattern of mycelial networks beneath a forest floor. A Lunar Layer of encrypted privacy protocols, including post-quantum mixnets, zero-knowledge trust systems, and decentralized coordination, runs beneath a Solar Layer of sovereign hardware, privacy-first applications, and community-owned DePIN infrastructure. Together they form an adaptive system: under permissive conditions, applications flourish openly; under pressure, the encrypted substrate expands to shelter more of what matters.
Platform Capabilities: Interconnected utility layers designed for independent adoption or seamless composition: Mix Network transport, Metadata-Private Group Chat, ZK Trust Registry, ZK-Firewall, ZK Provenance Services, and Secure Edge Hardware. Each new participant widens the coordination surface and strengthens the privacy set.
Phased Roadmap: From completed Genesis Research through Network Activation, Developer Ecosystem, Enterprise Infrastructure, and Institutional Scale, a 24-month arc where each phase builds deliberately on the last.
Regenerative Tokenomics: The ZKN token as the network’s circulatory system, with protocol revenue flowing through the Regenerative Tokenomics Router across four interlocking pools creating continuous feedback loops between revenue, supply dynamics, and ecosystem development.
This is infrastructure for the Intelligence Era: privacy as foundation, verification without exposure, value that regenerates through participation.

She's saying she doesn't stink, not that she doesn't sweat. Eliminating toxins in the body and changing diet 100% can eliminate smelly armpits, among other benefits. It happened for me after detoxing and making other lifestyle changes..... and I had a physically demanding job, no lazy bones here.
ZKNetwork Project Update – 2026-02-20
The Zero Knowledge Network emerges from an extraordinary Colorado chapter, bringing deep field connections, ecosystem visibility, and renewed momentum into 2026.
➡️ From the Field: ETHBoulder and ETHDenver
Seven-plus ZKNetwork contributors descended on Colorado for back-to-back events, with additional collaborative teams joining the mix. For many, it was the first time meeting in person, and the synergy was immediate.
ETHBoulder provided a powerful nexus for aligned builders, where ZKNetwork found deep resonance with builders exploring cosmolocalism, civic resilience, and community-first infrastructure. A shared premise: global protocols should empower local sovereignty, not extract from it.
ETHDenver scaled these conversations globally. ZKNetwork was featured in a Privacy Stewards of Ethereum presentation mapping where privacy matters most across the Ethereum stack, with ZKNetwork's Metadata-Private Networking Layer highlighted among ecosystem solutions.
The team also connected with the Aztec team, gaining a development supercharge from discussions on efficient agentic coding with the Aztec/Noir toolchain, directly applicable to ZKNetwork's ZK-native developments.
A consistent theme across both events: AI-assisted tools are accelerating at a pace most ecosystems are not prepared for, and privacy remains underaddressed. ZKNetwork joined an active chorus declaring Privacy Matters, not only for content, but for metadata, the invisible layer surveillance infrastructure is most hungry for.
➡️ Ecosystem Alignment: Gaia AI and MycoFi
Deep cross-pollinations are crystallizing with Gaia AI and MycoFi, exploring how privacy-preserving peer-for-peer technologies, AI-native verification, and secured edge infrastructure can serve regenerative bioregions, from ecological data coordination to community-level economic flows.
The cosmo-local and regenerative movements are not abstract. They are building, coordinating, and running into the same unsolved problem: how do you coordinate at scale without extracting data or centralizing trust? ZKNetwork exists to answer that question.
➡️ Why Metadata Privacy Is More Urgent Than Ever
Consider the cell membrane. Biological cells maintain selective permeability, allowing necessary exchanges while blocking harm. This boundary is not a limitation; it is what makes complex life possible. Social organisms work the same way.
As AI reshapes human coordination, the metadata layer, who talks to whom, when, from where, becomes the map that surveillance systems and adversarial models are trained to read. ZKNetwork builds protective boundaries into infrastructure:
- Mixnet transport obfuscates communication patterns, breaking sender-receiver linkage
- Zero-Knowledge Proofs enable verification without disclosure
- Tamper-resistant edge hardware establishes roots of trust at the physical layer
Privacy by default. Verification without exposure. Coordination without extraction.
➡️ Building Forward
The connections made across Colorado events are moving into active collaboration, with more to share soon.
Stay tuned. Stay private.

🌿 The Regenerative Paradigm: Privacy, Sovereignty, and the Re-Coding of Civilization
Post 7: Decentralization as a Living Pattern
Decentralization is often framed as a technical feature.
Nodes, consensus, redundancy, uptime.
But long before blockchains existed, nature mastered the pattern.
Mycelium spreads intelligence across the forest floor.
Roots share nutrients without a central commander.
Ecosystems coordinate without hierarchy.
Life thrives by distributing power, not concentrating it.
A decentralized system isn’t just harder to break...
it’s wiser.
It can sense more, respond faster, and adapt without waiting for permission.
Centralized systems fail at the point of control.
Distributed systems fail gracefully and recover quickly
because no single failure defines the whole.
Regenerative design takes its cues from living systems, where intelligence is distributed, not centralized.
It’s the recognition that intelligence emerges through connection,
that resilience grows from diversity,
and that systems aligned with life don’t need a ruler
they need relationship.
Many minds.
Many nodes.
One shared field of awareness.
