What happened on @variational_io?
Just got 65 points while I usually get 15 to 20 and the last time I got that many points was in December
At a 1B FDV at launch this basically means $2k just from this week
Once again, you still have around 18 weeks to maximize your points on the next gen perp DEX, use OMNIJOESTAR for a point boost
It’s not early anymore but it’s still heavily faded
Are you tired of endless upgrade discussions about hard forks?
Are you interested in playing with the latest advances in post-quantum cryptography or zk proofs?

A research paper just dropped showing LLMs can build agents that rewrite their own logic through crowdsourced feedback.
The AI world called it a breakthrough. Qubic called it Tuesday.
This is the part of Aigarth nobody has connected yet. 🧵
$QUBIC has burned 40.9 trillion tokens.
Out of a 200 trillion max supply, that's over 20% of the total cap, permanently gone.
Most people tracking it still don't understand the four separate mechanisms driving that number. 🧵
Sending money home shouldn't take days.
But it still does.
US → Mexico.
EU → Africa.
Gulf → Southeast Asia.
Fees stack.
Transfers delay.
Intermediaries take a cut.
That system wasn't built for a global workforce.
Through partners like @Bitso, @yellowcard_app, @coinsph, and @sphere_labs, stablecoins now move instantly across these corridors.
Funds arrive in seconds.
Onchain costs drop to near zero.
Transfers run 24/7.
This isn't a new product.
It's better infrastructure built on Aptos.
🧵 Why Quilibrium’s privacy & security make mass adoption inevitable
@QuilibriumInc $QUIL makes privacy invisible, automatic, and native => without changing how you interact with the Internet.
👇
1️⃣ The starting point: the Internet was never built for privacy
The Internet was designed to:
▪️move packets
▪️connect machines
▪️trust intermediaries
❌ It was never designed to protect:
🔸️your identity
🔸️your behavior
🔸️your browsing habits
🔸️your social graph
2️⃣ The myth of “private browsing”
When you use the Internet today:
🔸️your ISP sees where you go
🔸️DNS providers see what you look up
🔸️clouds (AWS, GCP, Cloudflare…) see what you consume
🔸️RPC providers see what your wallet does
🔸️states can correlate metadata
Even if content is encrypted,
👉 metadata alone is enough to profile you.
3️⃣ Security starts at the lowest layer
On today’s Internet:
✔️IP = network identity
✔️DNS = centralized directory
✔️TLS = trust in certificate authorities
On Quilibrium:
❌ no public IPs
❌ no classical DNS
❌ no certificates or central authorities
👉 Identity is cryptographic, not administrative.
Result:
✅️no CA-based MITM attacks
✅️no country-level blocking
✅️no trivial network censorship
4️⃣ Quark: a native private transport layer
Quilibrium introduces a network layer where:
◽️communications are end-to-end encrypted
◽️routing hides both source and destination
◽️developers never manage:
▫️sockets
▫️IPs
▫️ports
▫️firewalls
👉 The network becomes the transport itself.
Functionally similar to TCP + TLS => but without the Internet’s structural leaks.
5️⃣ QNS: eliminating the Web’s biggest data leak (DNS)
Today, DNS is:
❗️centralized
❗️observable
❗️censorable
❗️monetized
Even with DNS over HTTPS: 👉 the DNS server still knows what you’re looking up.
With QNS:
✅️resolution is in-network
✅️no third party sees requests
✅️no exploitable logs
But Quilibrium goes further.
6️⃣ ORAM: privacy most people underestimate
ORAM (Oblivious RAM) answers a crucial question:
“What if even the server didn’t know what you were asking for?”
With ORAM:
🔰real requests are mixed with fake ones
🔰access patterns are indistinguishable
🔰traffic observation reveals nothing useful
👉 It’s not just content that’s protected
👉 your behavior itself is hidden.
7️⃣ The local proxy: the key to mass adoption
This is where Quilibrium becomes unstoppable.
With a local component (Quorum or equivalent):
🔥your browser stays unchanged
🔥Chrome, Safari, Brave, Firefox all work normally
=> no exotic extensions
=> no habits to change
The proxy:
◽️1. intercepts requests
◽️2. routes them through QNS + ORAM + Quark
◽️3. prevents all network-level leaks
👉 The user doesn’t have to learn anything.
8️⃣ Why this is different from Tor or VPNs
Tor / VPNs:
❗️add a layer on top
❗️slow things down
❗️are easy to block
❗️require user effort
Quilibrium:
💥replaces the network layer
💥is invisible to the user
💥works with existing apps
💥introduces no friction
👉 Privacy stops being a political choice.
👉 It becomes a default standard.
9️⃣ Security becomes a natural side effect
When:
▪️there are no IPs
▪️no observable DNS
▪️no exploitable metadata
▪️no trusted intermediaries
Then:
🔰phishing becomes much harder
🔰mass surveillance collapses
🔰systemic attacks become too expensive
👉 Security is no longer a product.
It’s a consequence of architecture.
🔟 Why adoption is mechanically inevitable
Because:
🛡Data is monetized at our expense
🛡Surveillance is now structural.
🛡The boundary between public and private is disappearing.
⚠️More privacy and individual security are undermined, the stronger the demand for protection becomes.
👉 But, Users lack time and technical skills.
👉 And Developers want less complexity, not more.
And Quilibrium offers:
✅️better UX
✅️better security
✅️better privacy
✅️without trade-offs
🧠 When a solution is both simpler and more protective, it always wins.
These projects generated no revenue to $ATOM. But let’s be honest about WHY that matters - and why it doesn’t.
@tokifinance , @Sagaxyz__ , Mars, @noble_xyz - these weren’t supposed to generate revenue to $ATOM in the first place. They were built on the “@cosmos vision” where:
>Chains are sovereign
>ATOM is “the hub” for security/interoperability
>Value accrual happens through… unclear mechanisms
So pointing out they generated no revenue to ATOM is like saying “water is wet.”
The actual question is: Why did #Cosmos spend 5+ years building an ecosystem where the native token captures ZERO value from ecosystem success?
Compare to:
∙#Ethereum: Every L2, every dapp, every transaction → $ETH burns
∙#Solana: Every transaction → $SOL burns
∙Even #BSC: Every trade → $BNB burns
Cosmos: Ecosystem grows → $ATOM holders get… “alignment” and “interoperability”?
Here’s what nobody wants to admit:
These projects failing ISN’T bad for ATOM. These projects succeeding WASN’T good for $ATOM either.
The problem was never whether Cosmos projects succeed or fail. The problem was that Cosmos Hub designed itself into irrelevance from day one.
When your entire value proposition is “neutral infrastructure” and “sovereignty,” you’re explicitly saying “we don’t capture value.”
The brutal truth:
>If Mars had 100x’d → ATOM gets nothing
>If Saga had billions in volume → ATOM gets nothing
>If TOKI became the EVM of choice → ATOM gets nothing
So why would #ATOM holders care about ecosystem success?
This is why the pivot to “ATOM as money” and institutional infrastructure makes sense - it’s finally admitting that the original model was broken.
But instead of celebrating these failures as validation that the old model needed to die, the community is treating them as tragedies.
They’re not tragedies. They’re expensive lessons that Cosmos should have learned years ago:
Sovereignty without value capture = building someone else’s empire on your infrastructure for free.
Update on the transition progress and current focus from the @radixdlt Foundation. We are moving quickly to ensure the necessary infrastructure and decision making frameworks are in place for the community to take the reins.
Recent market activity has only reinforced the validity of this strategy. The ecosystem is responding positively to the shift toward decentralized ownership, and north star remains the same: to execute this handover responsibly, promptly, and fully.
1. Foundation Services Mapping & RFPs: We have completed the high-level mapping of all critical services currently operated by the Foundation. This overview will be published shortly, so you can assess the scope of work required to maintain the services that support the network, users, and developers.
We are drafting Requests for Proposals (RFPs) for Priority 1 services, including the Gateway and Signalling services.
We aim to provide sufficient technical detail for accurate proposals without dictating the operational methodology. The community will decide the how; we are defining the what.
2. Technical Maintenance: While the transition planning occurs, routine maintenance continues to ensure the asset remains robust.
We launched Scrypto V1.3.1. Details here (https://t.co/8JI5AlUjNG).
Gateway Update: We are preparing an update to the Gateway service to support the latest Radix Engine Toolkit (following the recent Scrypto release).
3. Governance Tooling: We are removing dependencies on Foundation back-end systems to ensure governance is onchain and not dependant on us. This is the focus for V2, although we are building this out, community or alternate proposals on where/how to run proposals voting are welcome! If an alternative is agreed, we'll re-prioritise resources from this.
Consultation V1.1: Updates are live at https://t.co/Co31ykYkqC, featuring a new UI and per-account voting (no more linking accounts).
4. Season 1 Rewards: The technical review of the S1 distribution system is complete. The confirmation consultation regarding the end date and vesting schedule is live and closes this Sunday night. Make sure your preference is registered. Post here (https://t.co/9FEWa7vQaP).
5. Liquidity & Market Making: We have held follow-up discussions with our current market maker regarding CEX liquidity options post-transition.
We are developing options to ensure liquidity management can continue seamlessly, including contingency plans for scenarios where a formal community entity is not yet fully established at the moment of handover. There are viable options here to protect markets.
6. Community Engagement: The volume of inbound proposals and the depth of discussion has been wonderful to see, especially in less than 2 weeks. It is encouraging to see the ecosystem actively stepping up to define the future structure. I've personally been on calls and DM's with many who are working on as been asked for feedback, and happy to do this with anyone else looking to put in a proposal.
Speaking of getting more engagement and ideas, I am currently collating feedback on how the Foundation can better support these discussions to ensure debates remain constructive and that all contributors feel comfortable advocating for their proposals. Remember, not everything has to be a large undertaking, if there are small things you think you could contribute, please do propose it!

@Cosmos_Airdrops C'est très bon espoir qu $ATOM reprenne du poil de la bête, les tokenomiques vont être révisées pour qu'in finé le token puisse capter de la valeur, c'est sûre qu'ils ont perdu beaucoup de temps, des erreurs ont été faites...... Ça prendra du temps, pas mal de temps ..
