⚠️ Spammers are sending fake "USDC.axl" on Osmosis. It shows the real USDC logo but is worthless and can't be swapped.
As long as you don't visit any websites linked in these transfers, your assets are safe.
The denom is leftover from a 2022 IBC vulnerability that was patched long ago. It doesn't affect users today and is only being used as phishing bait.
A wallet update with the denom blocked is pending app store review.
🚫 Never enter your seed phrase on any website
🚫 Don't click links in tx memos or "USDC claim" pages
Stay safe.
I introduced a Private Member Bill titled The Asset Tokenisation (Regulation) Bill, 2026 in Parliament.
The Bill is a forward-looking framework to bring legal clarity, transparency and investor protection to the emerging ecosystem of tokenised real-world assets in India.
Key Features of the Bill:
1) It provides legal recognition to asset tokenisation in India.
2) It establishes a statutory framework for issuance, trading, custody and settlement of tokenised real-world assets.
3) Introduction of regulatory oversight and supervision of tokenised asset markets.
4) Ensures investor protection and safeguards market integrity.
5) Aims to maintain financial stability while fostering innovation in digital finance.
Leadership is hard...Appreciate the clarity and ownership in Jack’s note. Tough decisions are never easy, but being direct and transparent is the right way to handle them.
My thoughts are with everyone impacted by the layoffs..transitions like this are never easy.
we're making @blocks smaller today. here's my note to the company.
####
today we're making one of the hardest decisions in the history of our company: we're reducing our organization by nearly half, from over 10,000 people to just under 6,000. that means over 4,000 of you are being asked to leave or entering into consultation. i'll be straight about what's happening, why, and what it means for everyone.
first off, if you're one of the people affected, you'll receive your salary for 20 weeks + 1 week per year of tenure, equity vested through the end of may, 6 months of health care, your corporate devices, and $5,000 to put toward whatever you need to help you in this transition (if you’re outside the U.S. you’ll receive similar support but exact details are going to vary based on local requirements). i want you to know that before anything else. everyone will be notified today, whether you're being asked to leave, entering consultation, or asked to stay.
we're not making this decision because we're in trouble. our business is strong. gross profit continues to grow, we continue to serve more and more customers, and profitability is improving. but something has changed. we're already seeing that the intelligence tools we’re creating and using, paired with smaller and flatter teams, are enabling a new way of working which fundamentally changes what it means to build and run a company. and that's accelerating rapidly.
i had two options: cut gradually over months or years as this shift plays out, or be honest about where we are and act on it now. i chose the latter. repeated rounds of cuts are destructive to morale, to focus, and to the trust that customers and shareholders place in our ability to lead. i'd rather take a hard, clear action now and build from a position we believe in than manage a slow reduction of people toward the same outcome. a smaller company also gives us the space to grow our business the right way, on our own terms, instead of constantly reacting to market pressures.
a decision at this scale carries risk. but so does standing still. we've done a full review to determine the roles and people we require to reliably grow the business from here, and we've pressure-tested those decisions from multiple angles. i accept that we may have gotten some of them wrong, and we've built in flexibility to account for that, and do the right thing for our customers.
we're not going to just disappear people from slack and email and pretend they were never here. communication channels will stay open through thursday evening (pacific) so everyone can say goodbye properly, and share whatever you wish. i'll also be hosting a live video session to thank everyone at 3:35pm pacific. i know doing it this way might feel awkward. i'd rather it feel awkward and human than efficient and cold.
to those of you leaving…i’m grateful for you, and i’m sorry to put you through this. you built what this company is today. that's a fact that i'll honor forever. this decision is not a reflection of what you contributed. you will be a great contributor to any organization going forward.
to those staying…i made this decision, and i'll own it. what i'm asking of you is to build with me. we're going to build this company with intelligence at the core of everything we do. how we work, how we create, how we serve our customers. our customers will feel this shift too, and we're going to help them navigate it: towards a future where they can build their own features directly, composed of our capabilities and served through our interfaces. that's what i'm focused on now. expect a note from me tomorrow.

@pratykumar Awesome work! 🔥 Enterprise needs reliable, deterministic, auditable results be it during code generation or migration or any other usecase...Super hyped that you’re planning to open source Arya.. any rough timeline for when the repo might go public?
Legalise Virtual Digital Assets (like Crypto, Stablecoin) in India. Don’t drive them offshore.
India taxes VDAs (virtual digital asset) like they are legal. But regulate it like they are illegal.
India taxes cryptocurrency at 30% Capital Gain Tax + 1% TDS; yet offers no legal recognition, no investor protection, no dedicated AML (anti-money laundering) framework.
The result is:
• 12 crore Indians invest via overseas platforms
• ₹4.8 lakh crore in VDA trading moved offshore
• 73% of India's trading volume shifted to foreign exchanges
• 180 Indian crypto startups relocated abroad
The answer is : compliance in India. Give VDAs clear asset class status in India.
A clear domestic regulatory sandbox, with strong AML guardrails can bring activity back onshore, protect investors, improve compliance and add ₹15,000–20,000 crore in annual tax revenue.
Let us not fear innovation, let us regulate it.
Prohibition is not protection, Regulation is protection.
Today, I delivered a speech on the Union Budget 2026-27 titled the good, the bad, and the way forward.
Speeches on Union Budget are either applause from the Treasury benches or outrage from the Opposition. Today, I tried to take an objective view and offer constructive criticism to the Hon’ble Finance Minister.
From STT in markets and relief to middle-class to the public health funding gap, income tax slab rate revision, state capex, fixing land records via blockchain, making long-term capital gain tax on equities zero, legalising virtual digital assets like crypto, and much more. I laid it out clearly in Parliament.
Watch the full speech here.
