Dear Users,

Over the past 24 hours, we have experienced an unprecedented level of withdrawal requests and have successfully processed more than 8.5 million USDT in instant redemptions.

Given the sustained withdrawal demand and current market sentiment, we have made the difficult decision to begin an orderly wind-down of the Altura vault. Our priority remains the protection of user capital and ensuring all redemptions are completed in a fair, transparent, and efficient manner.

To facilitate this process, we have notified all counterparties and partners of our decision and have started unwinding positions across the portfolio. These positions include allocations held on exchanges, private credit opportunities, and real-world asset strategies. While some positions can be redeemed immediately, others require standard settlement and redemption periods, and we are working closely with all counterparties to accelerate the process wherever possible.

We want to reassure all users that the wind-down is being conducted in a structured manner and that capital is being returned as underlying positions are redeemed.

Despite it being a weekend, our team has worked around the clock to process withdrawal requests and maintain continuous communication with partners and users. I am incredibly proud of the effort and commitment demonstrated by everyone involved during this period.

Personally, I am deeply disappointed by how quickly misinformation and speculation can spread within the industry. Altura has always operated with transparency and integrity, and it is unfortunate to see unfounded narratives contribute to market fear and withdrawal pressure.

Nevertheless, our focus remains unchanged: executing an orderly wind-down and returning capital to users as efficiently as possible.
We will continue providing regular updates as redemptions progress and additional liquidity becomes available.

Thank you for your trust and support throughout this process.

Ranveer Arora

CEO, Altura

$SPCX is now live on @Solana via Sunrise.

The biggest IPO in history priced on Nasdaq this morning.

Issued by @Backpack Securities, $SPCX brings a tokenized SpaceX share onchain, on day one, trading across every Solana wallet and app 24/7.

Own something.

@reganbozman Bruh, DWF is still there! Please do some due diligence before posting lol 🤣🤣🤣

[DWF Labs @DWFLabs]

Too many tokens launch with no revenue, users, or use cases behind them.

@DWFVentures research shows that @base has a different approach. Before even hinting at a token launch, the team accomplished:

→ $78.2M in network revenue
→ Capturing the majority of all L2 weekly revenue in 2025
→ 45% increase in TVL from last year
→ A thriving ecosystem

This is what a potential token launch should look like: product, traction, and value first.

My forecast for 2026:

• Many crypto-native VCs will put investments on hold.
• Many startups from 2024-2025 will be wiped out.
• Many emerging creators will give up and stop posting.
• Many users will exit.

And this is good.

The last few years inflated this space with low-value, mercenary capital.

VCs invested to sell early.
Projects were built to raise and launch tokens.
Users were testing things to win an airdrop.
Bloggers were posting to get farm yaps/snaps/xeets.
The life cycle of a protocol shortened from years to months.

We've built a factory of hidden exit liquidity and legal scams where real value simply could not find its way through the noise.

We're in the era of disillusionment now.
And after disillusionment comes efficiency.
And it is good.

Is yet another ATH coming for $PENGU?

With price surging over 4x in recent times, @pudgypenguins has seemingly emerged as the face of the crypto industry.

How exactly did an NFT project evolve to the brand we know today, and how did its token perform so well?

Let's dive in! 🧵

BTC just smashed a new ATH! 🎉 What a day to be a hodler, fam! LFG! 🚀

[Asaf Nadler @AsafNadler]

You raised a $7M seed from Silicon Valley VCs.

You hired a KOL agency in Dubai.

But your users, they’re in Lagos, Manila, São Paulo, Accra, and Jakarta. 

Still think you know your market or should I let you in on a secret that’s gonna determine your success?

If you’re a crypto founder…this will be the most important data you’ll see all year.

We just analyzed wallet activity of 15M users across @MetaMask , @phantom , @bitgetglobal , Coinbase Wallet, Rainbow, OKX, and more, layered with geolocation data from @addressableid (link in comments).

And what we found was a hard truth, this will shake your belief;

• The money is in the West.

• But most users are everywhere else.

The USA and Western Europe dominate transaction value.

But Africa, Southeast Asia, and Latin America dominate wallet volume.

This means, If your product runs on a fee model, you want capital density.

But if you need users, you’re probably building for the wrong continent.

Let’s make this real, I feel like you aren’t feeling the gravity yet:

Imagine a founder in Berlin.

They raise $4M and build an app on Arbitrum. 

Target New York, and on launch day?

Their top users come from the Philippines. Nigeria. Brazil. Indonesia. 

They’re on cheap Android phones.

They’re skipping your 50MB wallet SDK because it won’t load. They bounced and moved on. 

Not because your product sucks, but because your assumptions do.

This isn’t a glitch, it’s a mirror.

The crypto revolution isn’t coming from where you pitch, it’s coming from where you’ve never looked.

And that’s a wake-up call:

Are you building for reach, or are you building for revenue?

Because the market that funds your runway
is not the same market that feeds your retention.

You can raise in Manhattan…but if you ignore Manila, you’ll stall.

You can plan for a TGE in Paris…but if you don’t localize for Lagos, you’ll bleed churn.

Here’s the paradox:

Most crypto products are funded by the West…but scaled by the rest.

If you don’t know that, you’re not in the game. You’re in the dark.

So ask yourself:

Who are you building for?

The VCs on your pitch deck, or the wallets that are actually active?

Because in crypto, users don’t follow your roadmap.

Your roadmap should follow your users.
