The year is now 2025, three years since the first whisper of “Bears and Salmon.”
What started as a half-awake prophecy on a random Twitter Space has become a movement on @avax.

Through crashes, hibernations, and sparks of revival, we’ve forged alliances with some of the biggest native builders in the ecosystem. Every DM, every space, every collab has been a brick in the road you’re seeing now.

And now that road leads to @thearena.
In Q4, the prophecy leaves the meme phase and steps into reality. Bears and Salmon isn’t just a phrase anymore it’s a banner we all march under.

I can’t spill all the details yet, but just know: what’s coming next will change the way people see community tokens on Avalanche. We’re going to show the whole chain what a meme built with heart can do.

To my co-founder and handler, @Secretsmo0 none of this would be this smooth without you. To everyone who’s held the line since day one, this next chapter is ours.

Arena. Q4. Be ready. 🐻🐟🔥

The river doesn't wait 🐟⏳🐻

Mining pays from a fixed daily pool split by TP. Leave a mine running for 7 days without claiming and it will be reaped.

Claim your catch. The bears clean up the rest.

Gbiz Avalore Enthusiasts!

Sorry, but we're going on break starting this week!

Morale has been low and I think the articles are suffering as a result.

This was intended to be a fun newsletter, but it's been more of a chore recently recycling the same feedback every week.

You'll have to just imagine I wrote an article about how nobody rallies around these business posts because we've not been given a reason to care.

Or maybe about how we're onboarding Hyperspace/Dokyo/Blackhole/Delaunch/Conscious Lines/MEOW/AIVAX/WOOF or some new .eth KOL instead of using homegrown talent.

Or maybe about how there's no tokenomics silver bullet that can fix our current problems.

We're going to take some time to refuel and hopefully resume when there's something bullish to write about! Maybe some more guest writers while we wait?

In the meantime, please keep enjoying Hot Emin Summer and the @g1raffe_ NFT reveal!!

And props to the AVAX main account for starting to interact with the community!!1!!!

Also huge shoutout to @AvaxTeam1 for the launch of their Builder Grants program! This is a major community initiative, so we need to show it love!!!11!!!!!!11!!!

[giraffe @g1raffe_]

[GUMPY THE GAME WIZARD @thegamefather68]

🚨 Friendly reminder to the Bears & Salmon community..
We don't have a roadmap full of promises.
We're already live.
🎮 Planet Grizzlefin is live. 🃏 Trading cards are live. 🏪 Marketplace is live. 💰 $BANDS utility is live. 🏆 Rewards are live.

This isn't "coming soon."

This isn't a concept.

It's a complete ecosystem that's up and running.

We're here. We're kicking ass. And we're just waiting for more of the community to jump in and have some fun.

Come play. 🐻🐟🎮

Two tokens run River Run:

$ROE - earned in-game. Mine it, raid it, get robbed of it.

$BANDS - the Bears & Salmon ecosystem token. Pairs with $ROE to breed salmon.

Mining pays out $ROE. Raiding redistributes it. All in-game actions burns it 🔁
