November 19 is setting up to be the most unproductive Thursday in memory thanks to the arrival of GTA 6.
An estimated 1.5 million people are expected to skip work to play, creating a massive $1 billion hit for U.S. businesses in a single day.

Ethereum killer killed by L2 "band-aid"
2019–2024:
@Solana positioned itself as the Ethereum killer:
50k TPS, sub-cent fees, monolithic design, "L2s are band-aids and inferior scaling — Ethereum can't scale natively."
2024–2025:
@Base — a standard Ethereum L2 on OP Stack, the very "band-aid" Solana mocked — starts leading in:
• Fastest TVL growth among L2s
• Highest daily active users in the L2 category
• Dominant meme coin and creator volume: Aug 2025 → Base overtook Solana in launched tokens amid surging DEX volumes
Five years ago the narrative was “Solana kills Ethereum.”
Today the fastest-growing consumer chain in crypto is an Ethereum L2.
Sometimes the plot twist writes itself.
⌛ Three days until Horizen’s mainnet launches on @Base.
A new home for builders, businesses, and users who believe privacy should be practical - not complex, not abstract, just a natural part of being onchain.
At launch, Horizen brings a familiar EVM environment and an ecosystem designed for long-term growth.
To the OpenVPP Community,
Transparency and accountability have always been at the heart of OpenVPP. As we continue building for the long term, it’s important to share how token allocations are being managed to support the health and growth of our ecosystem.
We’re pleased to share that 200M tokens (20% of the supply) are now in vesting contracts with @TeamFinance_, reinforcing our focus on long-term token growth. Of this, 10% of the total supply has been set aside for Community Ecosystem Rewards — a pool designed to fuel participation, support contributors, and incentivize the builders driving OpenVPP forward. To support the design of this program, we have partnered with FinDas Org, leveraging their expertise in designing the tokenomics for some of the largest projests in crypto: https://t.co/RgEHCIoCCG
Additionally, 5% of tokens are vesting for a dedicated Strategic Partners reserve which we will use to design programs and partnerships with industry leaders. These allocations are essential to scaling our network, strengthening governance, and ensuring that we attract the talent and partnerships needed for the next phase of growth. Lastly, 5% of the supply is vesting for the Team over a 36 month horizon with a 12 month initial lock up.
For full transparency, these allocations are currently secured across the following wallets: 0x92005220338F27c2d43C0a5d1Da39AA7f6949c7E, 0x5A3C46b45ae5d4d0ab14b244A594Df616FFD3daF, and 0xA632d35e28317dEfb3b899c6B1c3d6432823E9Cc respectively.
In addition, our vision for the $OVPP token centers around becoming the currency for global virtual power plants. In this vision, utilities and grid operators will buy $OVPP to gain control of the virtual power plant, just as they do today in regular power markets. This opens up the opportunity for end users to be paid rewards in a sustainable way. Furthermore, revenue generated from OpenVPP's Institutional’s SaaS offerings to utilities will be used strategically to buy back and burn tokens, further supporting scarcity, value creation, and alignment with long-term community interests.
This plan represents a deliberate, long-term commitment to strengthening the network and aligning incentives within the best interests of the community.
OpenVPP’s mission has always been clear: To create lasting value through the creation of the Internet of Energy. To do that, the focus must not only be on the functionality but also through the integrity with which we manage and safeguard this network of the future. This update is another step forward in living up to that mission.
