ethereum has been online ten years straight with zero pauses and zero maintenance windows.
in that time:
- facebook went down for 14 hours
- aws kinesis froze for 17
- cloudflare dropped 19 datacenters
- alt L1s…well, you know.
every centralised giant blinks, they rely on on-call humans and scheduled downtime.
but ethereum never stops, not through forks, crashes, bubbles, lawsuits, hacks, wars, and every kind of drama the internet can throw at it.
and it’s not thanks to a CEO or a hotline.
it’s not because someone saved it.
it’s because we all did.
devs, stakers, researchers, users,
millions of us, scattered across the world, choosing to show up, block after block, year after year.
while banks fail, clouds go dark and servers get patched, ethereum keeps going.
we keep going.
ten years online.
forever to go.
RAILGUN is Ethereum's universal privacy solution.
0zk addresses connect to the TVL on Ethereum to swap & use DeFi privately without losing out on liquidity.
Swaps are routed through @0xProject, meaning private swaps have the same order routing as public swaps.
Privacy does not mean less liquidity.
Fight Chat Control.
You cannot make society secure by making people insecure.
We all deserve privacy and security, without inevitably hackable backdoors, for our private communications.

More fees for veFXN 👀
FIP-17 is live: https://t.co/Xz29a8r2NN
Currently, 100% of wstETH staking yield from $ETH xPOSITIONs flows to the Stability Pool.
We propose a milestone-based redistribution as fxUSD scales:
✔️ At $250M issuance → 50% to Stability Pool / 50% to Treasury
• 75% of Treasury share → veFXN holders
• 25% → protocol reserves & ops
✔️ At $500M issuance → 100% to Treasury (same split as above)
We’re confident this proposal strengthens protocol economics by giving veFXN sustainable cash flows, while keeping $fxSAVE yields attractive for LPs.

What grows TVL by ~5% over a weekend and still yields over 12.5%?
$fxSAVE dominance is a market leading indicator, and the @Protocol_fx devs aren't done yet. 👀
AI agents that can browse the Web and perform tasks on your behalf have incredible potential but also introduce new security risks.
We recently found, and disclosed, a concerning flaw in Perplexity's Comet browser that put users' accounts and other sensitive info in danger.
$10B TVL.
A milestone years in the making for @pendle_fi.
From a niche experiment to a cornerstone of DeFi, and it’s all thanks to you, our community, our Pendies.
This isn’t the finish line. It’s proof of what’s possible when conviction compounds, just like yield.
Job's not done. Higher!
Just 3 weeks ago, @pendle_fi cleared a $1.5B maturity and bounced back to a new ATH of $7B TVL.
Last week, another $898M matured, and once again Pendle snapped back, this time to a fresh ATH of $9.2B 🥂
There are more than 200M long / short positions in @protocol_fx ,Do you know what will happen if there's a market crash and those positions start to close? I'll tell you, but don't share it too much. What will happen is that the fees will be distributed between the $fxUSD stability pool and $veFXN holders, juicy return.
If, on the other hand, the number of short or long positions continues to increase, the stability pool's return and veFXN holder rewards will continue to rise. Real yield return, great PMF, simply @protocol_fx
Boros is the next major step in @pendle_fi's journey, and I’m very excited for the future it unlocks. At its full potential, it could grow to magnitudes of what it currently is today, and dwarf V2's current market size.
In just a week, we’ve had to raise the caps multiple times to accommodate the demand, achieving:
• $111.4m total Notional Volume traded
• $11.3m Open Interest in the YU-BTCUSDT market
• $21.7m Open Interest in the YU-ETHUSDT market
At its core, Boros is built to support any form of yield, from DeFi protocols to CeFi products, and even traditional benchmarks like LIBOR or mortgage rates.
My vision is to take Pendle from the leading crypto-native yield platform to becoming the universal yield platform.
But before that, we’re starting closer to home, with a massive, untapped source of yield: funding rates.
Boros starts with a simple premise: trade your view on funding rates. Open a long position if you believe they’ll rise, short it if you think they’ll fall. This simple yet powerful mechanism reshapes how funding rate risk is managed, and lays the pathway to a new crop of investment structures and yield strategies.
Floating funding rate payments can now be converted into fixed payments. Cash-and-carry trades can be insulated from volatility, eliminating negative yield scenarios entirely. This is especially powerful for protocols like @ethena and other stablecoins that rely on delta-neutral strategies.
To be clear, there will be no new token and no changes to tokenomics or emissions. $PENDLE will remain the sole engine of value accrual for both Boros, V2 and Citadels (i.e. expansion of PT distribution).
As mentioned before, what we’re building with @boros_fi has no precedent in either TradFi or DeFi. We’re starting from zero, and the journey from zero to one will take time.
I trust that given enough time, Boros will stand as a new primitive.
Job’s not done!
sPOSITIONs just got an upgrade.
Opening and closing orders are now routed through @OdosProtocol for optimal onchain execution.
Whether you're going long or short on f(x), Odos aggregates liquidity across DEXes to secure the best possible price on every trade.
