Didn’t think I’d ever come back here with something like this, but this situation is too weird to stay silent about.
@yichuan_drive sent me a profile of person using a pfp identical to mine. Funny enough, it’s not just the picture itself - even the profile background is very similar, which makes it look like a pretty obvious copy.
When my friend made a post and tagged the author, he immediately admitted in comments that he had simply taken the image, apologized, and said that if it belonged to someone, he would change it.
So he openly confirmed they were using someone else’s image without permission.
But here’s the interesting part: by the evening, he had already bought this NFT through an offer, found out that these images aren’t unique after all, deleted all of his apology comments, and decided to rewrite the story as if none of that happened.
It’s strange to first admit you took someone else’s image, promise to replace it, and then quietly erase your own words and act like everything was “legit” from the start. Very convenient when the evidence just disappears.
We shipped a V1 Dune dashboard for the tokenized Collectible Cards market.
Base, Polygon, Solana.
First batch:
@Beezie - claw-machine packs for physical collectibles
@Courtyard_io - vault-backed tokenized cards
@Collector_Crypt - graded card gacha and marketplace activity
@upshot_cards - prediction cards wrapped into a collectible experience
@phygitals - digital packs backed by vaulted cards
Onchain cards are getting past the “interesting idea” stage.
There’s already behavior showing up:
people ripping packs,
trading,
redeeming physical cards,
moving through vault-backed flows,
playing prediction mechanics,
coming back for another round.
Still early, data will keep improving.
But that’s kind of the point.
The category is forming in public, and we can already start watching which loops actually pull people back in.
The question now, which mechanics create repeat behavior?

Just came across VDEX on @wallchain_xyz and @xeetdotai and had to share this one 👀
It’s a next-gen marketplace where you can trade anything - crypto, stocks, commodities - all in one place. No middlemen, no gas, no lag
Built on Virtual Rollups, a zero-knowledge framework that gives you CEX-level speed with full DEX control
Self-custody ✅
Privacy ✅
Sub-millisecond finality ✅
It’s not CeFi vs DeFi anymore
It’s Virtual Finance - trustless, fast, and global
Honestly, projects like this remind me what web3 was meant to be about -freedom, transparency, and real ownership
Excited to see where @0xVDEX goes next
Saw a post today about the https://t.co/x4PAkgYwj6 domain - got curious and decided to dig in and compare it with the official @base websites.
Here’s what I found 👇
https://t.co/CCPr02fWOI and https://t.co/eWpBe7DStf:
🔹 Both use the same Cloudflare IP range (172.64.0.0/13).
🔹 Hosted and managed through Cloudflare, where most official Coinbase domains live (including https://t.co/fQCrTTuU4v, https://t.co/CCPr02fWOI, https://t.co/8Wr9hZ9JkE).
🔹 SSL certificates for both domains are issued by Cloudflare on behalf of Coinbase, Inc. - confirmed via https://t.co/7tSRhTjSnp.
🔹 DNS records point to the same Cloudflare NS servers (https://t.co/uY4Mq1X9Dd, https://t.co/unqoVoHuLq, etc.).
🟩 → These are official $Base (Coinbase) domains.
⚠️ https://t.co/x4PAkgYwj6:
• Completely different stack - AWS, not Cloudflare.
• IP range doesn’t overlap and isn’t part of Cloudflare’s network.
• No signs of shared NS, SSL, or Coinbase infrastructure.
• Most likely an unofficial domain registered by a third party (possibly speculative, using the Base name).
🟥 → From an infrastructure and origin standpoint - not an official (not verified at the moment) $Base domain.
How do you like the beginning of the week, $bnkr fam?
I decided to try to tweet something about this topic too, we need to start somewhere, right?
I'm still a full 0 😆
@bankrbot
why #EKOX is interesting for me
been deep in crypto since 2021, and one thing I’ve learned: capital efficiency is king
that’s why I’m paying close attention to @ekoxofficial - next-gen restaking protocol built on Ethereum
restaking = double utility
you’re not just securing Ethereum, you’re also earning yield -without killing your liquidity
for anyone stacking ETH long-term, that’s huge
what makes $EKOX stand out? It’s modular. meaning it plugs right into the DeFi stack, scales with the ecosystem, and doesn’t trap you in outdated models
ETH holders (and later other assets) can put their bags to work in a flexible, composable way
I like the vision: build stronger infra for Ethereum while creating real yield opportunities for users
Not financial advice, just what I’m digging into rn 👀 But imo, EKOX is setting the stage for a more productive and decentralized ETH future
btw there is incentivised campaign on
