Distribution > Perfection.

A lesson you only learn after shipping a lot of consumer products.

We built @ripsapp as a mini-app on @baseapp and @farcaster_xyz first, because we wanted to reach a crypto native audience in the most efficient way possible.

Last 30 days on BASE App:

• ~26K transacting users
• ~340k+ onchain transactions
• Clear first-time → returning user lift

This has resulted in nearly $2M USDC in pack sales over the past 4 months (app was live on Farcaster first).

Now that $RIPS has a real core community, the next step is obvious:
a standalone web app to expand top-of-funnel and to bring users and $RIPS holders with us.

Mini-apps aren’t small ideas.
They’re how consumer crypto apps should be born, tested, and iterated on to find PMF.

The path is always hard, whatever chain you’re on.

What matters is whether users show up… and come back.

Screenshot: Base App analytics. Farcaster showing the same pattern.

Shoutout to Brian, Jesse, Dan and Varun - let’s keep building…. 🛠️🛠️

Orderly just paid for @TaikiMaeda2's honeymoon. It's a pleasure.

We sat down with our Ultimate Crypto Championship winner.

He is a humble farmer.
He traded on a dex he built in a few minutes.
He went neck to neck with crypto trading legends.
Now he has $50k and bragging rights.

Give it a watch.

🚨🇺🇸 PENTAGON PIZZA TRACKER LIGHTING UP AS TRUMP'S IRAN ARMADA MOVES INTO POSITION

DC pizza spots near government buildings have become informal indicators of late-night activity in Washington.

When the Pentagon is busy, the nearby pizza places get slammed.

Tonight, both Papa Johns locations near the Pentagon and Pizzato Pizza are showing "busier than usual" traffic at 7 PM on a Tuesday.

With all eyes on Trump's naval buildup near Iran, people are watching these trackers closely.

institutions showing up here means only one thing,

infrastructure, compliance, and intent are real. so imo this ADI conversation is worth paying attention to.

So Mr Banker...

You have a fiduciary duty to your clients. And you could hold your clients' money in 100% reserve and make 4% on the shirt term risk free rate. Yet you return only 0.1% to your clients while taking massive risks. How are you justifying your fiduciary duty?

[Nicholas Kristof @NickKristof]

It has come to this: Canada is preparing military plans to respond in case the US invades along the southern border. The Canadian plan reportedly calls for guerrilla warfare, sabotage, hit-and-run attacks. It's hard to avoid the impression that we Americans are the new Russians.

25 Features in 2025

In 2025 onchain activity became even more multichain, alongside renewed focus on Ethereum L1 as the secure settlement layer.

That shift shaped how we built at Etherscan, while maintaining consistency and reliability for millions of users.

In 2025, we shipped:
+ Explorer as a Service support for 12 new chains
+ APIs and tools for developer workflows
+ More analytics, Cards, and insights
+ Better visibility into cross-chain activity and protocol changes
+ UX details to reduce friction during everyday exploration

As we head into 2026, we’ll keep improving the explorer experience.

Let’s keep exploring together 🚀

Seems like x402 wasn't just a buzzword.
It's actually being used.

$600M Volume under a year is really a crazy number for a new payment system.

And CodecFlow allows robots to use it to pay for things (data, compute, services...)

$BTC ETF outflows are cooling off.

Selling pressure is fading and once flows flip back to net buying, BTC could see real relief.

Smart money watches flows.

BITCOIN DESPLOMÁNDOSE

Y Polymarket lo vio venir.

Las odds de Kevin Warsh como nuevo Fed Chair saltaron de 37% a 87% en horas.

El mercado de predicciones sabía algo que tú no.

QUÉ PASÓ:

Trump va a nombrar a Warsh como reemplazo de Powell.

Es el candidato más hawkish posible.

Polymarket explotó con la noticia antes que los medios tradicionales.

Los traders inteligentes ya estaban shorteando.

Vengo diciendo esto hace meses: el target siempre ha sido la media móvil de 50 meses.

Está alrededor de $60K.

Todavía no llegamos.

LOS NÚMEROS:

Bitcoin pasó de $109K a $82K en semanas.

-25% desde máximos.

$1.75 BILLONES en liquidaciones en 24 horas.

$777 MILLONES en UNA sola hora.

La 100-week moving average se rompió como papel.

NIVELES CLAVE:

- ATH: $126K (Octubre 2025)
- Resistencia ahora: $93K (100-week MA rota)
- Precio actual: ~$82K
- Siguiente soporte: $72K
- Target potencial: $60K (50-month MA)

El risk-off es global.

Nasdaq -2%.

Oro cayendo.

Crypto cayendo más fuerte.

Esto no es un "healthy pullback".

Es el mercado ajustándose a una Fed más agresiva.

La gente que compró arriba está en pánico.

La gente que seguía Polymarket está en cash.

¿Adivina quién duerme tranquilo?

Si llegamos a la 50-month MA (~$60K), será la mejor oportunidad de compra en años.

Pero hay que tener paciencia.

Y sobre todo: hay que tener cash disponible.

El que no usa datos, sufre.

El que sigue Polymarket, espera.

Así funciona esto. 🎯
