🚨 Last night, the Internet Computer network withstood a widespread, AI-enabled attack, which involved hundreds of canisters using malformed Wasm modules.

In advance of ICP cloud engines, Open SaaS, Intelligence Gateway, and MULTI/DEX, we are seeing a rising tide of attacks.

As many ICP community members have pointed out, a legion of trolling and FUD accounts have now appeared on social media, often repeating exactly the same poisonous messages, over and over, en masse.

The posts of the trolls trace back to agency paymasters, who themselves have received money from somebody. Obviously, whoever is funding this has no place in the tech industry, but sadly some people in the crypto industry see themselves as belonging to something else.

The well-funded organizations behind these attacks are not interested in making the world a better place by developing game-changing technology. They are only interested in extracting easy money through snakeoil narratives and scams that our industry still has not gathered the strength to end — they are vampires that prey on the ignorance of token buyers, and they attack anything that might disrupt the status quo by showing people the light of real technology.

These tell themselves they are just crypto bros playing the crypto game.

However, paying for, or organizing, attacks on public infrastructure, even at arms length, is a serious criminal act, which also reflects who they really are.

We want to know who is behind these attacks, and ask for help. DFINITY will offer rewards to those who can help us unmask the criminals, and bring them to justice. These guys need to be doxxed.

Thank you for your attention in this, and thank you to the ICP community that stands with the network 💪

Hello MULTI/DEX 🔥 Should DFINITY release the most powerful DeFi application the world has ever seen?

What's cool about it? Here are some factoids, the craziest at the end:
1. It runs on an ICP cloud engine (soon everyone can have one) and is 100% network resident and tamperproof.
2. It is genuinely multi-chain, with no bridging hassles for users (users can deposit straight into their accounts, and withdraw directly, from the native chains of tokens).
3. It is order book based, but also provides a traditional swap interface, which swaps arbitrary assets by routing across the underlying markets.
4. It supports both spot trading, and margin trading that lets traders go long and short with leverage.
5. It has an AMM (Automated Market Maker) that uses Internet Computer outcalls to determine outside prices, then delayed matching against AMM limit orders to prevent arbitrageurs draining liquidity, as can occur with traditional DEXs providing swaps.
6. The AMM maintains a unified liquidity vault, and doesn't need two liquidity pools for every trading pair, providing outstanding capital efficiency and liquidity compared with traditional DeFi systems.
7. Users can earn by depositing into the AMM Vault, and into an insurance pool that protects the vault from margin calls that fail to recover all capital (the insurance pool gets 5% of all liquidations).
8. MULTI/DEX runs on the decentralized Internet Computer network, and is 100% open source — unlike HyperLedger, say, which remains closed source, and has an single-purpose architecture closer to federated CEX hosted on a symmetric cluster of federated servers.
9. If we go ahead, we would propose that MULTI/DEX runs as part of the Internet Computer, in the sense it is controlled and updated by the NNS (The Internet Computer's Network Nervous System, the world's largest and most sophisticated DAO, which directly orchestrates and updates the network) providing unparalleled levels of autonomy, transparency, and security.
10.... and this is the BIG ONE... its backend is built using the latest Motoko language framework (soon to be released) that puts AI *inside* of its software. That means, in another seminal inventive step from DFINITY and Caffeine Labs technology teams, that AI can see, browse and query the realtime data inside the app/dapp's persistent memory and can create and execute ad hoc queries and update logic on-the-fly (subject to permissions). So, while for much of the time traders will be using the traditional UX shown in the pic, increasingly, they will be interacting with the exchange through AI chats that have the "Internet Computer Connector" MCP installed (soon to be released). On the one hand, traders will be able to use chat to ask for simple things, like current spot pricing and market depth, and the likely slippage on a spot market order, and for orders to be submitted, but on the other, for much more demanding things that require the AI to execute ad hoc functionality, such as "Look at my positions and margin pools, and rebalance them to give me more blended market exposure, while also adjusting for risks indicated by social media coverage of forthcoming market events, but wait for my approval of your plan before proceeding."

This is a lot to take in, so I'm aiming to get a new demo video out ASAP that will demonstrate what's possible with this AIware, which will include MULTI/DEX — should be about a week!!

Btw. for those wondering what might be the big picture beyond what I just described with MULTI/DEX: At DFINITY, we are in the process of transforming ourselves into an "agentic organization," where all our existing apps/SaaS is replaced by custom on-demand apps/SaaS running on cloud engines that are created and updated by AI. Of course, these on-demand apps/SaaS are being built using the new technology described that automatically puts AI inside and provides users with fluid functionality via chat. The totality of the apps/SaaS represents an enterprise "World Model," which incorporates as much of the enterprise's data as possible, enabling AI to perform incredibly powerful analyses and actions — when you see this is in action, you can't unsee what you saw, because it's clearly a huge leap beyond the status quo of today's tech, which is exactly what the Internet Computer project is about. This wraps up our new technology stack, created by leaning on unique aspects of "The Network is The Cloud" paradigm, and years of work, and what, together with cloud engines, will finally enable the Internet Computer to strike out into the massive mainstream cloud technology market.

Soon I will demonstrate how AI can be "inside" an arbitrary ICP app, service or website built using the latest Motoko, understanding all its data, analysing it any way you want, and taking actions, without need for one special line of code. Insane and groundbreaking.

[HERO @HEROonchain]

Quarterly Revenue for $SOL dropped 99.49% since Q4 24 ➡️from $197.2M to under $1 M.

To be fair, their expenses dropped as well but SOL still managed to amass $4.4B in losses in 2025.

Is someone tracking these metrics? I find it ridiculous that we are talking about "the house of AI" Narrative while nobody is addressing this unsustainable Revenue Model.

Wake up!

These individuals are literally in the US hoping for the downfall of our country.

Who we let into the country matters. Defending our values and protecting our country matters.

Who you vote for matters. This is wild.

[Eyal Yakoby @EYakoby]

At the American Muslims for Palestine conference, they openly discussed their plans to take over America, including through suicide bombings, stabbings, and mass-shootings.

America must wake up.

Ayaan Hirsi Ali - let’s talk a bit about her.

She is one of the most courageous voices of our time.

She was born in 1969 in Mogadishu, Somalia, into a strict Muslim family. As a young girl, she was subjected to female genital mutilation. She grew up between Saudi Arabia, Ethiopia, and Kenya under a strict Islamic upbringing.

In 1992, she fled to the Netherlands to escape an arranged marriage - she jumped off a train in Europe and applied for asylum.

There, she learned Dutch, earned a degree in political science, and began working with integration.

She lost her faith in Islam. She became an atheist, and later converted to Christianity in 2023.

She saw clearly how Islam oppresses women - forced marriages, honor killings, female genital mutilation, polygamy, and the total lack of freedom.

In 2004, she made the short film Submission together with Theo van Gogh. The film showed violence against women in Islam.

Shortly after, Theo van Gogh was murdered in broad daylight in Amsterdam by a radical Muslim. A threat against Ayaan was left pinned to his chest: she was next.

She received death threats for years. She had to live under police protection.

She was elected to the Dutch parliament for the Liberal Party, where she fought for Muslim women’s rights and against the illusions of multiculturalism.

She has written books such as Infidel, Nomad, and Heretic, where she directly criticizes the core of Islam - not just “extremism,” but the ideology itself.

Today, she lives in the United States, married to historian Niall Ferguson, and continues her work, among other things through her foundation (AHA Foundation).

She warns the West about mass immigration from Muslim countries, parallel societies, and the self-deception that claims Islam can be reformed without confronting its texts and history.

Like Salman Rushdie, Ayaan Hirsi Ali has paid a high price for speaking the truth. Rushdie was hunted for a book. She was hunted for showing the reality of her own life and the lives of millions of Muslim women.

She is not “Islamophobic.” She is a former Muslim who has seen the system from the inside and refuses to stay silent. She points to the uncomfortable truth: that Western values such as freedom of speech, gender equality, and individual liberty are incompatible with classical sharia Islam.

Ayaan Hirsi Ali is a living example of why the Enlightenment is still worth defending.

She risked her life to say what most people don’t dare: that the problem is not only “extremists,” but a religion that, at its core, oppresses women and rejects criticism.

She deserves respect from all of us - not because she is “controversial,” but because she refuses to lie in order to be politically correct. In a time where many bow to threats, she continues to speak the truth.

These are the kind of people who keep the soul of the West alive. Thank you Ayaan.❤️‍🔥🪽✝️

AWS outage in UAE proving what I've been predicting for years — data centers are the new targets in conflict (including for terrorists in the future).

ICP provides a way to create sovereign cloud from a network that can withstand data center losses.

I’m writing this through a connection so small it feels like a crack in the window.
99% of the country can’t even get online that’s why you don't see videos or images from inside.
In Tehran and Karaj, every time people hear an explosion, they cheer from their windows and rooftops.
They chant slogans and celebrate because another terrorist base of the regime has been hit.
I’m sure the rest of Iran is exactly the same.
To all honorable Iranians abroad:
Be our voice
louder and more decisive than ever.
Take to the streets and flood the internet with one clear demand:
Trump
DO NOT STOP the attacks.
Right now every mosque and religious gathering hall has been turned into military bases for the IRGC and repression forces.
At Tehran’s Mosalla, dozens of repression vehicles are parked and being prepared.Prove to @realDonaldTrump
@netanyahu
@IDF
@CENTCOM
that these are no longer religious sites
they are official regime military bases.
Bomb them.
The people of Iran do NOT want these places anymore.
This has nothing to do with religion they have become fortresses of terror and must be destroyed.
Also strike the homes of the reformists they are the main anti-Israel and anti-America operators inside the regime.
My connection is too slow to push this properly so please tag everyone you can.

We will take to the streets at the right moment.
We will win.
Long live Iran!
Javid shah

If you are feeling crushed, anxious, angry or worried about the Muslim win in the #GortonandDentonByElection please take a moment to hear this.

Well done @GoodwinMJ - you must be exhausted. Allow yourself to be knackered.

Well done fellow patriots. We are winning.

A group of left wing basement dwellers tried to ruin our Restore Britain launch event last night by block-booking tickets with no intention of showing up.

We found their Facebook group organising it all, and matched all the names on that to their tickets.

Quite simple at that stage to mark them off, and keep on selling to genuine attendees.

Ending up with an incredible turnout.

The socialists were all very generous with their donations - hundreds of tickets were bought.

It’s sincerely appreciated.

They bought a few rounds for the team. Cheers lads!

[Andrew Fox @Mr_Andrew_Fox]

This would be “news” if I hadn’t published a paper in *December 2024* pointing out that:

1) the list at the time was probably full of errors (Hamas agreed and deleted thousands of entries a few months later) and “70% women and children” was drivel;

2) Hamas overall totals were historically about right;

3) IDF killed combatant estimates were historically about right, and Hamas always hides combatant deaths during conflict and acknowledges them weeks/months later.

I was right about everything, over a year ago. Shame on the world’s media for their abysmal reporting standards on deaths in Gaza.

You can read the paper, here:
