Backhaus' Videobotschaft:
"Sieben Jahre habe ich darauf hingearbeitet, den großen Traum, Bundesliga mit #Werder zu spielen, wahrzumachen. Ich freue mich, dass es dann über ganz viel Arbeit, ganz viele tolle Menschen und über einen kleinen Umweg, über Volendam, gelungen ist."
Backhaus:
"Die Entscheidung ist mir sehr schwergefallen. Aber letzten Endes ist es eine Entscheidung, die für alle ein Stück weit gut ist, ein Win-Win für alle.
Ich freue mich, euch bald wieder zu sehen. Leider in anderen Farben. Die Raute wird ganz tief in meinem Herz sein."
Wer ersetzt Milosevic?
"Aktuell sind uns etwas die Hände gebunden. Justin Njinmah kommt aus einer Erkrankung, da müssen wir sehen, wieviele Minuten er spielen kann. Keke Topp hatte eine richtig gute Einwechslung - wenn wir in dieser Ordnung bleiben, kommt Keke dem am Nähesten."

Geht auf fb viral und löst heftige Reaktionen aus. Von Jens Waldinger:
„Herr Bundeskanzler der zweiten Wahl… erlauben Sie mir eine Frage.
Ganz direkt. Ohne das übliche diplomatische Weichspülmittel, das Sie so schätzen.
Wann genau eigentlich… ist in Ihren Kreisen der Entschluss gefallen, dass die Menschen in diesem Land nur noch eine lästige Ressource sind? Etwas, das man melkt, das man diszipliniert, das man von oben herab moralisch belehrt – aber das man unter keinen Umständen mehr ernst nimmt?
Sie stehen dort oben, exemplarisch für eine Kaste, die sich eine Arroganz antrainiert hat, die ihresgleichen sucht. Ein geschlossener Zirkel. Man applaudiert sich auf Podien gegenseitig zu, während man auf jene herabblickt, die dieses ganze Theater überhaupt erst finanzieren. Die Menschen, die morgens aufstehen, die arbeiten, die Steuern zahlen – und die zusehen müssen, wie sie trotz ihres Fleißes immer tiefer abrutschen.
Und dann setzen Sie noch einen oben drauf.
Es ist an Unverschämtheit kaum zu überbieten, wenn aus Ihren Reihen nun auch noch die Behauptung kommt, die Menschen in diesem Land wären schlichtweg ‚zu lange krank‘.
Als wäre Krankheit eine Freizeitentscheidung. Als wäre das Burnout, der kaputte Rücken nach dreißig Jahren Maloche oder die psychische Erschöpfung durch Ihre verfehlte Politik ein Zeichen von Faulheit. Wer dieses Land durch seine Arbeit physisch und psychisch verschleißt, dem werfen Sie am Ende noch Arbeitsverweigerung vor?
Das ist nicht nur faktisch falsch, das ist menschlich niederträchtig.
Schauen wir uns doch mal die Zahlen an, Herr Bundeskanzler. Ihre eigenen Zahlen. Während Sie dem arbeitenden Volk mangelnde Moral vorwerfen, weisen die Bundesbehörden im Schnitt fast 21 Krankheitstage pro Jahr auf. Weit über dem bundesweiten Durchschnitt. Und die Krönung?
Die Verwaltung des Deutschen Bundestages selbst – also genau dort, wo die moralischen Zeigefinger geschmiedet werden – liegt bei fast 23 Tagen.
Man gönnt sich also im geschützten Raum der Macht deutlich mehr Auszeiten als jenen, denen man gleichzeitig Faulheit unterstellt.
Wissen Sie… wenn Sie von ‚Verantwortung‘ reden, dann hört das Volk nur noch ‚Verachtung‘. Ihre Botschaft ist doch längst angekommen:
Arbeitet mehr.
Zahlt mehr.
Aber vor allem: Haltet die Fresse.
Wer in diesem System nicht mehr funktioniert, wer nicht mehr liefern kann, der hat in Ihrem Weltbild anscheinend jede Daseinsberechtigung verloren.
CO2-Abgabe. Lohnsteuer. Mehrwertsteuer. Gewerbesteuer. Eine endlose Kette staatlicher Zugriffe, die jede Eigenleistung im Keim erstickt. Und wofür? Damit Sie Milliarden in ideologische Prestigeprojekte pumpen können? Damit das Geld in aller Welt verteilt wird, während hier die Schulen verrotten und die Infrastruktur zerfällt?
Das ist keine Politik mehr, Herr Bundeskanzler. Das ist organisierte Gleichgültigkeit. Ideologie über Realität. Selbstinszenierung über Verantwortung.
Und hören Sie auf, so zu tun, als wären Sie der Vormund dieser Bürger. Als wären Sie deren Richter oder eine moralische Elite.
Das sind Sie nicht. Sie sind ein Angestellter. Vom deutschen Volk gewählt, vom deutschen Volk bezahlt – und dem deutschen Volk verpflichtet.
Nicht dem ukrainischen, nicht Rheinmetall oder Blackrock, sondern den Menschen hier.
Statt die eigene miserable Leistung zu reflektieren, treten Sie nach unten. Nach jenen, die versuchen, in diesem staatlichen Moloch irgendwie zu überleben. Ich sage es Ihnen, wie es ist:
Die Menschen durchschauen dieses perfide Spiel. Sie haben die Nase voll.
Es reicht.
Jens Waldinger“
Nice.
Hyperlane is a really good option for getting capital on-chain, particularly when the main bridge is clogged. It's fee-free and takes <2 mins to bring effectively unlimited USDC on chain. We have no association with them (or anyone), we just like the product.
The bridge-derivative it mints on PulseChain is $hUSDC (contract address 0xa5b0d537cebe97f087dc5fe5732d70719caaec1d). At the moment, liquidity is what slightly hampers adoption. The main LP is on @Tidedex with around $210k liquidity, but as TIDE is a Balancer fork it allows stable pools, meaning even with $200k liquidity you can maintain relative price stability when swapping between $hUSDC and $USDC.
The main liquidity pool is earning ~13% APR which isn't too shabby.
Right now with current liquidity you could spend $50k hUSDC with just a little bit of slippage (0.8%) - you'd only get about 0.2% if you spent $20k. The price mismatch also opens up manual arb opportunities for those paying attention - you can swap USDC > hUSDC, bridge out to Ethereum using Hyperlane for free, then come back in through the normal bridge (zero fees) and you've made a small profit.
It would be nice to see more adoption of hUSDC as an ecosystem. Right now it allows you to on-ramp (and off-ramp) from 7 chains, and we understand Solana support is coming. There are times when the main bridge is struggling and LibertySwap pools run out of capital (temporarily) - they're infrequent, but they do happen. Hyperlane is one of the only reliable alternatives when this happens.
“Things Have Their Reasons”
or
“The key to ecosystem success that only needs to be turned”
@RichardHeartWin ,
This is not a cry post. It is our last constructive attempt to help restore vision and hope in the ecosystem. It has nothing to do with the current price, and everything to do with the fact that we have reached a point where meaningful parts of the PulseChain investor landscape are changing.
Some context on who is speaking:
We onboarded tens of thousands into PulseChain, actively accompany hundreds of serious investors in private groups, integrated multi-million-dollar companies into PulseChain, and are currently in talks with several multi-billion-dollar companies about tokenization and their home in crypto.
“Winners learn from setbacks and evolve. Only the insane refuse to change their behavior while expecting different results.”
We want to describe the real challenges and then outline a concrete plan that can make this ecosystem stronger than ever.
First: about you.
The community simply likes to see you. You have charisma and people sense a good soul behind your eyes. That is one big reason why they long for your visual presence. It is also an economic factor: if used consistently, even only through video messages, it would measurably help the ecosystem.
You are right that prices reflect the holders. But holders are shaped by a) their emotions and b) their understanding. If these two are not addressed responsibly and regularly, people lose orientation, uncertainty grows, identification fades and their emotional bond to your vision weakens. This creates a real blockage on the road to glory, because growth is then partly sabotaged.
The community will not stop wanting these two points (a + b) directly from you, at least not in the first cycle of this new ecosystem. Your ecosystem grew around you as the center. Most people did not trust HEX solely because of the math, but because they saw in you a visible crypto competence, intellect and charisma that could win any dialogue battle. They did not just say yes to a token. They looked you in the eyes, saw genuine passion, and believed you might be one of those rare frontmen leaders with whom extraordinary success becomes possible. Not because you know or can do everything, but because you are willing to go the extra mile and you understand that persistence beats omniscience.
Yes, everything was simpler when there was only HEX and one united community. But simpler is not the same as right. Expanding into a full ecosystem was absolutely the right step. Your community is strong enough to carry it.
The first big challenge was that sacrificers received up to 150 percent of their capital as gifts. That does not make organic price discovery easier. Many top sacrificers have barely felt bear market pain. But healthy prices require pain. Those who cannot walk the journey must be washed out, freeing space for new, hungry, energized participants. This constant renewal strengthens the foundation from cycle to cycle, even if it hurts in between. So if it dips, let it dip. If OG pain is needed, so be it. There should be no market making in a bear market depression. Better we start the new ecosystem with a hard core and new strength than with a large mass of millionaire crybabies.
What we as HexScout have done so far:
🔥 We built HEX’s leading brand dApp.
🔥 We brought the fastest global fiat on-ramp (RampNow) into the ecosystem.
🔥 We integrated Hyperlane, the most modern bridge, connecting PulseChain to over 140 chains.
🔥 With Hyperlane we removed the single point of failure (exclusive reliance on Ethereum) and secured the chain’s only multichain-backed stablecoin, hUSDC (currently tradable via Piteas). Over 500k monthly Hyperlane users from 140+ chains are now a potential inflow.
🔥 We co-built and co-funded the explorer https://t.co/GkSw6eUAhK, giving the community the only explorer where PulseChain data is complete and bug free.
🔥 We are helping RampNow launch the first cross-chain swap that can swap any crypto asset in the world directly into PulseChain assets, and pushing for a PulseChain wallet that unites the best of modern wallets and connects directly to fiat.
The barriers to entering PulseChain have largely disappeared within the last two months and are shrinking further.
We are just two normal guys working full-time for years for your ecosystem and vision. The community sees that this level of progress can come from two regular people without sac funds and without free access to top developers. Naturally the intelligent follow-up question is:
“How is it possible that two normal guys without resources deliver so many critical things the ecosystem needs, while the entities at the top of the ecosystem, who collected billions in sacrifices, have not delivered a single recognizable ecosystem evolution for more than two years?”
Serious investors cannot reconcile that, and step by step we are losing holders and loyalists who came to the chain with long-term intent, not just for quick Xs.
The ecosystem also sees the huge opportunity Hyperlane brought, one of the strongest onboarding tools we have. Yet it receives no PulseX support, is not mentioned on pulsechain[dot]com, and you have never spoken about it, despite Hyperlane already bringing millions of dollars onto the chain. So 500k @hyperlane users from other ecosystems stand in front of a closed door.
At the same time, the community sees public blame discussions for weeks. They feel the chain is under-supported; the founder responds “you are responsible for the price.” Both statements are partially true. But without active leadership in the right places, there will not be enough vision and identification to sustain the community.
This cannot simply be ignored or laughed off, unless one has become a fanatic who has lost all rationality. Fanatics are loud but irrelevant. What matters are the many quiet, real investors who have already stepped onto PulseChain with serious intent.
We are in private groups with hundreds of European investors. We feel the sentiment of the quiet but powerful group of honest investors who are not here for a fast dollar. They have waited patiently to see whether Hyperlane would be pushed to its maximum potential. Experiencing complete neglect is something they simply cannot understand. Especially when, at the same time, cross-chain transactions offered by anonymous middlemen via private bank accounts are being encouraged, even though their business stops every time the PulseChain Main Bridge pauses.
This is where parts of the community are lost, because they can no longer follow what is happening. And this is where ecosystem champions like us must say “We do not understand it either,” and seriously ask “What are we working so hard for if even obvious chain evolution receives no support from the top?” Developers can accept that to a point, but such patterns will inevitably drive away supporters.
PulseChain was created to claim a place as a chain. As an Ethereum fork it has ideal prerequisites. We have the chain, the ecosystem, the capital to give a new thing the necessary starting leverage, and strong contributors and developers like Piteas, Coast, RampNow and many others. The community has delivered hard for years, through the longest bear market ever and the harshest FUD conditions.
Yet for over two years there has been no recognizable chain evolution. Not a single Ethereum upgrade has been adopted. The official explorer has not been able for years to show the transfers tab reliably. That is not a minor bug. It is a serious issue that many cannot understand. Every explorer user ends up asking: “What kind of chain is this if the main explorer does not even allow me to reconstruct my own transactions for taxes?”
This creates real image damage. Yes, there are alternatives like our explorer, but mass adoption of alternatives is rare. And if our explorer suddenly became the main one, it currently could not handle the traffic.
We have offered the same solution many times: take over our explorer, add whatever you feel is missing (we will gladly help), give it the required performance, and we have a fix. Alternatively, finally fix the transfer tab bug after years, and treat the image damage it causes like the serious issue it is.
It is not the community that is failing to build. The bottleneck is the center: the entity that collected billions in sacrifices from people who believed they were joining a unique DeFi vision. Of course there should be no formal expectation of work from others. But believing you can sit on hundreds of millions in sac funds without at least using some capital to build critical infrastructure is naive. One for all and all for one. Richard for glory. That vision cannot be left entirely to the community. It needs clear motivation and role modeling from the front. A couple of sporadic updates are not enough. People need tangible, visible progress to celebrate, not every month, but at least every 6–12 months.
A key to a flourishing ecosystem is an optimal base for those who want to grow it long-term. Only these long-term builders create the hope that the ecosystem can one day be less dependent on a central authority. The community has already contributed significantly here.
@piteasio proposed an excellent idea for a strong developer base (https://t.co/1SPp8NUkBS). Another highly respected developer, @SIN3R6Y, underlined similar needs (https://t.co/bn1iiVNcew). These are among the smartest and most loyal people in the ecosystem. So far, they have been ignored.
Leading minds get too little attention. This is not about ego. It is about progress. The community sees time being spent debating haters and whiners, and chatting with retards, while critical contributors receive no reply, even when their posts clearly get the most engagement.
This creates deep insecurity. In backrooms everywhere people are asking: “Why build an ecosystem and a smart contract chain that lives on third-party development, if years later there is still no infrastructure to motivate developers to settle here, as on every other serious chain?” These are top priority topics. They must be addressed. The irony: the community is ready to do the work and only needs the official blessing that such initiatives are welcomed.
Beyond those basics, people also need a reason to believe in growth. Signaling, through a strong dev base, that the chain is an extremely attractive place for builders is a crucial first step. But building confidence in a community requires strategy:
🔵 professional core websites (still missing)
🔵clear market positioning for the ecosystem (still missing)
🔵strategic communication
🔵professional marketing on top of that (still missing, despite millions burned on experiments)
Even this challenge has already been partly solved by the community. Months ago we secured a top tier agency that has guided billion-dollar companies to success and is ready to put PulseChain in the global spotlight. For months we have fought for this to be understood. For months the community has shown strong support, hoping for a simple “OK, let us try this, let us finally do it professionally and structured, and see whether this path works better than the past years of alternative approaches.” So far, there has been only silence.
Meanwhile the community sees hundreds of millions of sac funds, watches millions burned here, hundreds of thousands evaporate there, and at the same time sees that we could start testing this agency with modest budgets. Once again people are left with the big question: “Why not at least test this visibility opportunity, when significant parts of the community are at their moral limits, developers are withdrawing, and even major loyal contributors are appealing for a more honest reflection of the situation?”
We are not speaking only for ourselves. We are giving voice to a broad consensus among meaningful, loyal, non-opportunistic devs and ecosystem builders in our network. We urgently hope this organic backbone of the ecosystem is heard.
The bright minds that carry the ecosystem are ready not only to build, but to engage in a truly strategic, private dialogue with the founding side. There are many strategic topics that do not belong in public. There are many insights to share to maximize success.
So we ask directly:
Can a private space be created where loyal top contributors and the founding group can coordinate? Can this separation end? Can a productive working structure be installed? Everyone with a brain knows that united builder energy, competence and intelligence is a powerful weapon.
🏆 Master plan for sustainable growth and stronger investor demand:
PROFESSIONALIZE DEVELOPER FOUNDATIONS
• Give the green light to developer incentive systems like Piteas proposed.
• Set up a funding pool for external developers who credibly want to bring meaningful DeFi projects to PulseChain.
• Create a closed space for loyal top contributors and you, plus a small, competent management structure that builds and maintains a strong crypto network and follows a clear agenda.
PROFESSIONALIZE MARKETING
• Start working with a top-tier marketing agency (for example the one we have already secured).
• Clarify the brand: What is PulseChain? A free airdrop? ETH, but faster? A DeFi home base? A brand identity and positioning must be developed with the top minds on the chain. At the moment there is no brand, no positioning, no structured outreach.
• In general: work with professionals. The sacrifice phase was world class. Almost everything since then has not been. That gap must be closed.
UNLOCK GROWTH POTENTIAL
• Give Hyperlane (hUSDC) a solid place on PulseX.
• Grow liquidity of hUSDC, the only multichain-backed stablecoin on PulseChain, to parity with eUSDC.
• Present Hyperlane properly on pulsechain[dot]com as the only true, non-pausing cross-chain bridge into PulseChain that can secure constant inflow.
OPTIMIZE COMMUNICATION
• Use communication to build unity. Show more understanding for small investors who put in their last money and had big hopes. They must not be insulted into the ground. That is unworthy of a leader and is only cheered by fanatics, who are loud but irrelevant for long-term success.
• Communicate transparently with the community: what is being built, what devs are working on, why things take time.
• Explain how confusing or painful states will be addressed: the transfer tab bug, recurring bridge pauses, the adoption of Ethereum upgrades, the chain evolution roadmap, and the plan to evolve PulseX beyond a Uniswap V2 fork while V4 exists.
• Bring in more top-tier developers. Every month there should either be visible progress or at least a clear progress report.
• Hold regular leader messages from you to the ecosystem.
Everything above can be ignored. But that would mean ongoing self-sabotage. Yes, capital can create green candles as long as it lasts, even with a weak foundation. But the price of that approach is the disbelief of serious investors who could otherwise be with us for multiple cycles. The price is becoming exit liquidity for everyone who no longer wants to tolerate underperformance and who sees too little perspective and trust, even after a few Xs.
Supporters like us will also leave in that case. We have no expectation of others’ labor. But we did not show up for a few quick Xs. We came to help carry a long term vision through multiple cycles into glory. For that, the vision must remain real and professionally tangible.
@RichardHeartWin, thank you for who you are. 🙏 You give real DeFi people the hope that one day we can show the world that nothing is real DeFi but PulseChain, no matter how bumpy the road is. We still believe in you, in your intentions and your honesty.
Please allow help. Let us stand closer at your side to achieve your goals. Accept the gift of combining different competencies to strengthen the army, build a sustainable future and reach glory. You could flip certain switches today, communicate them clearly, and everyone would see immediately that something has clicked and is changing. That new path would inevitably be huge.
P.S.
⚖️ We have disabled comments on this open letter. It is not meant as a public debate, but as a direct message from a contributor who has earned his place by actions. Block us if you cannot handle that. In that case you are not a net positive for this ecosystem’s evolution, but a primitive hater, incompetent, blinded by fanatic loyalty or a troll in disguise trying to sabotage the progress this ecosystem urgently needs and that lies directly in front of it. If you think you are doing something good for the ecosystem, prove with actual deeds that your opinion should be taken seriously.
❤️ To all our followers and the tens of thousands we onboarded to PulseChain, to the hundreds of investors we support in private groups, and to the many developers who know we are speaking here from full heart and full mind: Thank you for the journey so far. Thank you for your positive engagement. 🙏 An ecosystem needs people like you. It cannot be carried by one person alone. With this letter, we are once more fighting for your visibility. May it trigger something so that together we flip the switch and lead this ecosystem to glory. It is an easy decision. The path is open. The base to act is still there.

@LibertySwapFi@hexscout@DevJuyoung@OmerSaglam65855@RichardHeartWin To be honest, I don't know the background story, but I'm not interested in it either. So far, I've always been given factual information about Pulsechain, and that's all that matters to me!
I ignore personal turf wars because they are unhelpful.
Objectivity is key 👍
@RichardHeartWin Do I have to think about it? 😉
Nope—I choose @hexscout.
I haven't seen any other guys on Pulsechain who are more serious and dedicated than them.
@hexscout@hyperlane Persistence usually pays off...
I will continue to use Hyperlane and also inform my friends who want to invest about the easiest and safest way for them to do so 🤝
Best community every! I'm so encouraged by all your kind words and interest in new and powerful technology! It's great to know there's so many people out there looking out for my best interests! You guys are awesome!
