I just sold all my crypto.

The news I just heard is scary.

I’m done with this.

And I’m never coming back.

JUST IN: Bitcoin has fallen out of the top 10 largest assets in the world by market value

[Ripple @Ripple]

The demand for modern, always-on settlement infrastructure continues to grow.

@Mastercard’s support for $RLUSD and the XRP Ledger reflects growing demand for trusted digital assets and blockchain infrastructure that can power faster, more flexible settlement.

I invested $5000 in Aster seed round and at ATH it was $500k. There is no industry that is giving you these kind of opportunities.

[TON 💎 @ton_blockchain]

Toncoin (TON) -> Gram (GRAM)

Community vote is live.

Since Telegram took a leading role in TON's development, the chain got 10× faster, fees 6× lower.

And now Telegram proposes one more change: renaming Toncoin to Gram - the name from the original TON White Paper that never left the codebase.

💫 We owe you an apology.

One week ago, we said Phase One of the new ION direction was expected to launch within two weeks.

We were wrong.

Phase One is already finished — and the controlled launch is scheduled to begin first thing Monday.

That means we are moving one week earlier than expected.

Over the past week, our small team pushed harder than ever. We have integrated AI deeply into our development, QA, testing, iteration, documentation, and automation workflows.

In total, last week, we processed more than 17 billion AI tokens across agentic development pipelines, automated QA loops, regression testing, edge-case simulations, code reviews, optimization tasks, technical documentation, campaign preparation, and product validation work.

While we were sleeping, our agents were still working.

Testing.
Breaking things.
Finding issues.
Re-running flows.
Improving outputs.
Validating user journeys.
Preparing the product for real clients.

This is exactly the speed we were missing in the past.

We had strong ideas before, but we often lacked the execution velocity needed to bring them to market fast enough. This time, things are different.

Phase One is not a hype launch.

It is a controlled launch with a small initial client base, where we will calibrate campaigns, optimize acquisition costs, collect real feedback, improve conversion flows, and validate demand with actual users.

The goal is simple:

Build a product that brings real utility, real monthly revenue, and real value back into the ION ecosystem.

This new direction is connected to the AI industry, but it is not dependent on crypto hype, KOLs, market noise, or empty speculation. It can be marketed through real business channels, including search, social, and direct acquisition campaigns.

We have already prepared multiple campaign angles. Once we begin collecting data, I will share updates as transparently as possible: what works, what does not, what we are improving, and how the product is performing.

Some people will say this is just marketing.

That is fine.

If it is only marketing, it will not survive contact with real clients, real campaigns, real feedback, and real numbers.

The project is 100% open-source under the MIT license and will be shared publicly at the right moment.

For now, we launch, measure, learn, improve, and grow.

This is the rebuild.

This is the speed we needed.

And this is how we make ION stronger, sharper, and useful again.

Welcome to 2026! Milady is back.

Ethereum did a lot in 2025: gas limits increased, blob count increased, node software quality improved, zkEVMs blasted through their performance milestones, and with zkEVMs and PeerDAS ethereum made its largest step toward being a fundamentally new and more powerful kind of blockchain (more on this later)

But we have a challenge: Ethereum needs to do more to meet its own stated goals. Not the quest of "winning the next meta" regardless of whether it's tokenized dollars or political memecoins, not arbitrarily convincing people to help us fill up blockspace to make ETH ultrasound again, but the mission:

To build the world computer that serves as a central infrastructure piece of a more free and open internet.

We're building decentralized applications. Applications that run without fraud, censorship or third-party interference. Applications that pass the walkaway test: they keep running even if the original developers disappear. Applications where if you're a user, you don't even notice if Cloudflare goes down - or even if all of Cloudflare gets hacked by North Korea. Applications whose stability transcends the rise and fall of companies, ideologies and political parties. And applications that protect your privacy. All this - for finance, and also for identity, governance and whatever other civilizational infrastructure people want to build.

These properties sound radical, but we must remember that a generation ago any wallet, kitchen appliance, book or car would fulfill every single one of them. Today, all of the above are by default becoming subscription services, consigning you to permanent dependence on some centralized overlord.

Ethereum is the rebellion against this.

To achieve this, it needs to be (i) usable, and usable at scale, and (ii) actually decentralized. This needs to happen at both (a) the blockchain layer, including the software we use to run and talk to the blockchain, and (b) the application layer. All of these pieces must be improved - they are already being improved, but they must be improved more.

Fortunately, we have powerful tools on our side - but we need to apply them, and we will.

Wishing everyone an exciting 2026.

Milady.

I spent the weekend putting my thoughts about $ETH and Ethereum into this article

I built my career, community, and business on Ethereum, so the decision to sell deserves a deeper explanation

I hope this is sufficient

Thank you, all

[Ted @TedPillows]

Performance of $ETH is an absolute joke.

I hold Ethereum and almost losing my patience.

Altcoin holders waited 5 years for altseason.

Most altcoins are now down 90%.

Meanwhile every other asset on the planet is pumping.

RIP altcoin holders.
