@opensea @boringsecurity GOATED!

[FΞLD | mrbayc.eth 🕯️ @Feld4014]

I woke up yesterday feeling bummed, but woke up today feeling completely reinvigorated. Notifications maxed with a bunch of pudgy and ape pfps saying they donated 🥹

Almost 50 of you in less than 24 hours gave your support to @boringsecurity 🙏

To me this is more than about money. It shows a big reason we rock these pfps. It shows that you believe in what we’re doing over at Boring Security. Community showed up. You all showed up to something so many of us do for so little.

I’ll admit, the long bear market had me thinking that this couldn’t continue the way that it is and that I’d have to pay $5k a month out of my own pocket to keep us alive. We started to run out of money and talent when apecoin fell from $1 to 10 cents and we had to stop development on our security education rpg. This year, we’re bouncing back, with new things cooking for y’all.

This funding push over the last 24 hours renews my faith in web3. People say we’re all here for money and it’s a PvP world, but I don’t believe that. Never did.

To the people who have donated, I’ll be forever in your debt! Not just because of the money, but because you took the time out of your day to show the thankless soldiers of security that we matter. That you want us here. Thank you for that.

And for those of you who aren’t sure what we do matters to our space, of the nearly 3000 alumni who have taken our classes, we’ve seen only 1-2 of them to go on to lose assets to scams, usually on their “degen” wallets that we teach in our classes. We’re Grassroots, but effective. We hope to see you there someday if you’re not already!

@Ghostly_Kittens @boringsecurity What do you mean? We’ve been teaching multiple free security classes every single month for the past 3 years.

[ReDzin @redzin]

@boringsecurity @BoredApeYC @Abstract_Eco Epic Schedule with many legends that are also participating in the giveth round!

[ReDzin @redzin]

@SteanMpollo @boringsecurity @BoredApeYC @Abstract_Eco Thanks a lot for the kind words and for all your support throughout the years, Stean.

[Boring Security @BoringSecurity]

May 2026 is going to be epic.

Our classes are stacked with community partner classes alongside the biggest names in Web3:

@BoredApeYC, @Abstract_Eco, Pudgy Penguins, Welcome Apes, NightGlyders, Core DAO, Chimpers, and more.

We're teaching live classes for all levels, from Web3 101 to on-chain sleuthing.

We’re also running a Quadratic Funding round with Giveth and The Dao to help us keep delivering these classes for free.

If you've enjoyed our classes and asset recovery services over the years, now's your chance to keep us fighting.

Donating as little as $ 10- $ 20 could translate into hundreds of dollars for us.

Sign up for our classes in Discord. Limited slots for this month!

[Core Ecosystem @CoreEcosystem]

DeFi is full of opportunities.
It’s also full of traps if you don’t know what you’re doing.

We’re teaming up with @boringsecurity for a free DeFi Safety & Security class covering:

• DeFi basics & protocols
• MEV and common risks
• Safer Web3 practices
• How to avoid scams and navigate DeFi with confidence

🗓 May 9, 10 AM EST
📍https://t.co/7jTOq6nK1u

Important: You must sign up for the course through the Boring Security server first to access the classes.

Learn first. Ape smarter later. 🔶

Boring Security is my baby. And it needs your help. Like it really really needs your help. And right now, you can help in a massive way! How?

0) Make sure your Passport is up to date: https:@//app.passport.xyz/ (Remove the '@') - This just checks your wallet and makes sure it seems human. If you've donated before you can skip this step and simply press refresh on any donation page (below). So when you donate, make sure you aren't using a burner! A wallet with tx history, that has a few tokens and NFTs pretty much gets auto-accepted for the requisite 20 points!

1) Go here and donate something small. Anything between $5-100 (but more is fine too!): https://t.co/fbxKa85okR - if you did the above right, you should see "Your donations are eligible to be matched"

2) Find another project and donate any amount greater than a couple dollars. We recommend two of our long-time instructors for Boring Security, who you've definitely seen around:

@wiimee - https://t.co/ov4JY1MIOk

@nft_dreww - https://t.co/zwJg2CghFI

3) Let me know you donated in the comments so I can go hire a woo-woo girl on TikTok to bless you with good fortune in all your crypto endeavors this year.

From the bottom of my heart thank you! Sorry the process is so cumbersome, but anti-sybil, and preventing the self-deal/self-donation cabal is difficult. We're only interested in real donations from real people who feel Web3 Security education is important! If you haven't checked out BSec in a while, head on over. We've got new classes, all free of course, and some new things in the works coming soon :).

[Boring Security @BoringSecurity]

We Need Your Help!

It's no secret. Since the closing of the ApeCoinDAO, Boring Security has been fighting for survival.

Donating (link below) something as small as 10-20 dollars could translate to hundreds of dollars for us, keeping us fighting!

Boring Security has been doing amazing work in this space for years. If you've been here, you know them.

Now there's a matching pool on @Giveth for any donations to them. It's a quadratic funding round, which is some nerd shit I am not going to pretend to understand. But am ape so I am supporting @boringsecurity

[Boring Security @BoringSecurity]

🤯 Not an April Fools’ joke.

We’re kicking off April with two huge wins:

1 - We just received a grant from ApeCo @apecoin. This funding will help us keep delivering high-quality, zero-cost education to the community.

We started in the Ape ecosystem with BAYC and MAYC holders as our initial student base. And we’re proud to stay and keep our presence there.

2 - We’ve successfully completed our @arbitrumdao_gov final grant milestone for our DeFi Safety and Secure module.

Over the past months, more than 200 students have flocked to this new class.

These grants prove one thing: the demand for practical, specialized education in DeFi, privacy, and opsec has never been higher.

Crypto is here to stay. And where the money flows, the bad actors follow.

Education matters.

We’re not stopping.

🚨 Suspect your account got hacked after clicking a shady link?

@redzin from @boringsecurity says:

Do this right now:

1️⃣Full factory reset your computer. This completely wipes out persistent malware.

2️⃣Immediately change every password and secure ALL your accounts:

- Crypto wallets
- Social media
- Password managers
- Browser saved logins

Malware does not stop at one account. It actively hunts for everything it can reach.

Too many people stay compromised and keep spreading scams because they never fully kick the attacker out.
