Our statement on the UK government’s demand that all content on all devices sold or used in the country be scanned, on the presumption of nudity, using a dystopian combination of age verification and content scanning. This proposal will not safeguard children. It endangers us all.

Crypto has created a lot of loud personalities.
Then there’s @RichardHeartWin
Luxury watches. Ferraris. #HEX. #PulseChain. One of the most loyal communities in crypto.
Love him or hate him, nobody ignores Richard Heart.
@graminitha1 breaks it down👇
PulseChain is better than zcash $zec. Why? Well Zcash was just emergency patched, and the network down for many, because a vulnerability was discovered, and patched, but its impossible to know if it was ever exploited, unless an exploiter confessed. It's a funny property of most privacy coins, that you can't detect if someone inflation bug (minted a bunch of free coins) or not, because you can't actually count up the total supply.
PulseChain is safer software. Ethereum is PulseChain's testnet, and it's a wonderful test net!
PulseChain, PulseX, HEX, ProveX all have more potential for maximum gains than Bitcoin does, because BTC has a 1.6 Trillion dollar market cap already. It's been around for 17 years already. You are not an early adopter in $BTC.
Those 4 coins all do things that BTC can't.
PulseChain has better potential, better technology, higher throughput, lower fees, is more secure, and is less owned by governments and banks to boot.
HEX did a 10,000x in price in the last 10 years and doesn't make electricity companies and mining hardware manufacturers rich at the cost of the price.
PulseX removes middlemen from trading, its just you and the code.
ProveX uses zero knowledge tech to enable peer 2 peer trading and issue other kinds of proofs.
Better potential, better tech.
Cappy early website is up: https://t.co/lnvhzelcDi
Cappy X account: @CappyWallet
Just wanted thank you guys for all the support on this. This is just the tip of the iceberg, there are a lot of things I plan to do in as short as possible of order. Couldn't do it without you guys.
I'll be splitting updates between my personal / Cappy X accounts. I've been asked many times how people can help, I put some info on the site for now.
Anyways, less talking more doing. The roadmap on the site is accurate as of right now. But I'm moving fast.
I want this wallet to exist so I can enjoy it too.
Rabby was the wallet I wanted to use. The simulator, the native DeFi tools, the way it got out of your way and let you use the chain. Then they dropped PulseChain support.
People kept using it anyway, half-broken, because nothing else came close. I thought about building a replacement. Honestly, I didn't want to.
I already run RPC nodes and data services for several PulseChain products, so the ops weren't the part that scared me. The moral weight of running a wallet itself was. People trust this kind of software to act consistently every time, and getting that wrong has different consequences than getting most other software wrong.
Then a well-known community member got drained. Using Rabby on PulseChain, in that half-broken state. The simulator was one of the things that stopped working when Rabby left. If it had still been alive that day, the malicious transaction would have flagged before signing. They would have seen the hack coming, and walked away.
I asked the obvious question: why are they still using Rabby? Other wallets objectively work better on PulseChain right now. Then I looked at my own Chrome extensions. Why am I still using Rabby too?
Because it's the wallet I want to use. The wallet I wish worked the way it did before.
Cappy is that fix. I am keeping everything that made Rabby good, and rebuilding the parts #PulseChain needs.
Because the prices suck so bad, people are crashing out and lashing out left and right. Can you imagine if people lashed out at Vitalik for not founding a DEX, not founding a bridge, not founding a coin launcher that burns ETH, not beating the SEC in court, not making a blockchain time deposit protocol, not market buying deca millions and never selling, not sending advertisements and merch door to door, not giving away free coins, not sending millions of coins to people for marketing on chain, not running free chatrooms, not having a youtube channel, not giving out free books he's written, not founding a couple free infura (RPCs) devs build on and people use. That'd be crazy right?
It's a good thing people aren't ungrateful trash, so they don't harass him.
Lets make a more exhaustive list of ways to "get hacked." Many of which I've mentioned before.
Weak RNG:
Use a wallet with a weak RNG (random number generator.) or other vulnerability. Some mobile wallets had this problem, and some vanity address generators had it too.
Someone has a camera watching your screen and you view your seeds.
You google a website and a scam site has done SEO or paid to be at the top of the search results
Fake "support" messages you by direct message, or on socials to help you with your wallet or problem.
Fake support pretends to be the exchange and asks you info they use to login as you and empty you, to "verify your account."
You accidentally leak your seed on a livestream (sounds erotic.)
You put your seed in plain text somewhere, and someone else finds it.
You use a brain wallet with a phrase from a book and people constantly scan the chain for common phrases from books.
You used an L2, and the L2 decided to take your money.
You used an exchange and they decided to take your money.
You used an exchange and they didn't decide to take your money, but got hacked or just exit scammed everyone at once
You installed malware. RAT (remote access trojan). Address replacer, (replaces the address you copied with their address instead of the one you wanted.)
You fell for vanity addresses made to look like one you've sent to in the past, but sent to you more recently, so when you look at the block explorer it looks like a previous legit address, same beginning and end, but the middle is different. People have lost lots of millions to this one recently, heck I think it's the majority of gas use on Ethereum now.
You gave your coins or money to someone else to invest. They lost it / stole it. You fell for a romance scam or pig butchering scam, or AI boss asked me to send money scam or whatever scam of the day is.
You installed an evil browswer extension.
The front end you used got DNS hijacked and now points to an evil dapp.
The X account you follow got hijacked and is now spreading malware links.
You installed an ok browser extension but it got bought by, or exploited by evil and auto updated to evil.
You set too wide a slippage trading on a DEX and got nuked.
The state takes half ur money, cuz, uh, divorce, or whatever reason.
You forget your seed words or don't write them down correctly.
Some guy at the airport security just images your device and decides to empty whatever wallet he finds.
You left a limit order in a wallet with no funds, but then you send funds one day and the stale order fills at a terrible price.
Basically, in computers, physical access defeats most countermeasures, so it's wise to not have any unencrypted seed on any single device in a single place ever.
You approved a dapp's permissions, but then one day the dapp gets evil, often by using an "upgradeable" proxy contract, becuase you never removed the permissions, or overapproved, or jsut shouldn't have ever used a contract wiht an upgradeable proxy ever, anyway.
Oh, yeah, you install malware by doing a job interview, or talking to a reporter, but they're actually just scammers. Devs also fall for this by cloning repo's and installing whatever evil is in them. So the impersonation thing, whether it's for interviews, or investors, or getting hired is a very, very common vector for getting people to install viruses on their machines. People also fall for other kinds of impersonation, people pretending to be their boss, or pretending they need bailed out using AI vids.
You use anything with an admin key.
I could probably think of more, and I've mentioned the majority of these on here before. Feel free to add.
DeFi didn't get hacked. AdminKeyFi got hacked. HEX, PulseChain, PulseX, & ProveX coins have no admin keys. Stop calling admin key crap and DAO controlled by a few dudes (admin keys, but with extra steps.) DeFi. It's not DeFi. Oh, and Arbitrum seized $70M of the hackers coins, and another chain introduced privacy (but with a view key they say they'll hand to the government if asked right.)
Some small portion of you figured out the solution. Follow me, learn from me, be saved. I can't save you from others choosing to click red instead of green, but I can teach you what's real and how to do things better. Much, much better.
It's funny how I keep hearing about #DeFi projects on #Ethereum getting hacked every week or two. #HEX just keeps chugging along. I should make a list of the dead bodies that have floated by in the river lol.
