seeing @Trueo_ on the Ethereum shipping list means a lot 🔮 ‘ask a question, let people trade the outcome’ sounds simple — making it resolve trustlessly, fully onchain, is the whole game. heads-down, more soon.
Ethereum is for shipping.
Here are some of the things the Ethereum ecosystem launched, upgraded, and announced over the past month.

25/ @eth_systems launched as a company building modular privacy infrastructure for institutional Ethereum.
Introducing Claude Sonnet 5, our most agentic Sonnet yet.
It makes plans, uses tools like browsers and terminals, and runs autonomously at a level that just a few months ago required larger and more expensive models.
The BAYC welcome has been unreal.
I’ve spent years building products across Web2 and Web3, mostly behind the scenes.
For a long time, I thought shipping was everything.
The more I build, the more I realize there’s a lot to learn outside the dev bubble.
Time to share more of the journey.
Less lurking, more building. 🫡🦍
One thing I’ve learned building Web3 products:
After contracts are audited, UX can’t just move freely anymore.
Every change has to consider contract constraints, security assumptions, audit scope, and time cost.
In Web3, UX often has to orbit around the contracts.
Painful, but also what makes onchain product design interesting.
Peering into the future is now as simple as asking a question! 🔮
User created markets are live!
Ask questions, let the market answer.

Welcome fakesmallcc.eth to the bored ape yacht club! @mfigge aura is in full effect and you absolutely picked a grail straight out of Texas. Super clean, on aquamarine this ape is beautiful. Glad you're finally here and very intrigued by @Trueo_ 👀👀
Welcome a-bored! 🤠🦍
I’ve wanted an Ape ever since @machibigbrother first introduced me to BAYC shortly after the mint.
Meeting @mfigge and the Yuga team at Tuesday’s Taipei meetup finally gave me the push to join the club.
Big thanks to 大哥 for helping me find my forever Ape.
I spent a big part of my life in Texas, so choosing a cowboy Ape just felt right. 🤠🦍
Excited to build alongside the BAYC community at @Trueo_ .
Happy to finally be here.
