[Arbitrum @arbitrum]

Perps choose Arbitrum because the platform gives them the speed, shared liquidity, and scaling capacity needed to reach CEX-level performance

That’s why @variational_io is now one of the top perp platforms onchain with $136B+ traded, $1.09B+ in OI, and hundreds of markets live

[Bryan Pellegrino (臭企鹅) @PrimordialAA]

Love seeing @Starknet connected to the 165 chains @LayerZero_Core connects today. @EliBenSasson and team have been amazing to work with and made the full end to end process one of the best experiences to date.

Great team, great people.

Starknet expands!

[Twin Protocol @twinprotocolAI]

This week’s AI headlines point to a reset moment. Less hype, more accountability. Leaders are reassessing risk, platforms are testing new models, and companies are questioning whether AI is actually delivering on its promises.

📌 AI pioneer Yoshua Bengio shifts focus from alarm to practical risk reduction
https://t.co/fuqN8hAdRw
Bengio now emphasizes system design, alignment, and regulation as realistic paths forward, signaling a move toward responsibility over fear.

📌 OpenAI begins testing ads inside ChatGPT in the US
https://t.co/0UGjyMOsAB
Sponsored content inside AI conversations raises new questions around neutrality, transparency, and influence as conversational AI becomes a monetization surface.

📌 Analysis finds AI is failing to boost productivity at scale
https://t.co/IeMeL2UvBE
Despite heavy investment, many organizations report limited gains, pointing to poor implementation, lack of training, and unrealistic expectations.

Together, these stories suggest a shift in how AI is evaluated. Value does not come from capability alone. It comes from intention, context, and human judgment. At Twin Protocol, we build AI Twins and secure vaults to help people stay in control of purpose and outcomes as intelligence becomes more embedded in everyday work.

$YEE - @YeeErc20: Still scaling in on YEE btw. Easy win.

[Coinbase 🛡️ @coinbase]

Wait years have inflation now too?

[Years Progress @YearsProgress]

2026 is 6% complete.

[Joseph Lubin @ethereumJoseph]

This is what real adoption looks like. 

2026 is the year that massive TradFi liquidity flows onto Linea and Ethereum.

Institutional capital is choosing Ethereum native yield in production, not theory.

[bonuz Human Layer @BonuzMarket]

Many have been wondering what’s going on at bonuz lately? 👀

[The Crypto Dog 📈 @TheCryptoDog]

This used to be a place you could post 5 tweets back to back to back in 30 minutes and not be penalized if what you were posting was relevant to your audience.

Timeliness was one of Twitter's strengths. You found out things as they happened, not hours later after algo review.

[Circle @cirswap]

With https://t.co/cjfn5VFJ4G now at 11.7% APY risk free yield on USDC (decentralized/liquid staking) We have a dilemma...

Are we better off using Lido for ~3% on ETH, or a guaranteed yield (but subject to dollar devaluation)?

Ultimately, balance is key

[Ritchie Torres @RitchieTorres]

Proud to partner with Assembly Member George Alvarez and Congressman Adriano Espaillat in hosting a Three Kings Day event in Fordham and Belmont.

[Bakkt @Bakkt]

Capital formation is still stuck in a legacy model.

Onchain markets unlock earlier liquidity, better price discovery, and broader access without the friction.

This shift feels inevitable.

Snapshot para el Airdrop de Rainbow hecho ✅

Atento, han confirmado que NO habrá checker elegibilidad y que los tokens $RNBW se reclamarán manualmente directamente desde la App móvil

Así que si tienes tu wallet en la extensión del navegador, exporta la seed phrase a la App y déjalo todo preparado 🫡

¿Se viene el próximo gran short?

[Jason Pontin @jason_pontin]

One of things @DCVC looks for in iTechBio companies: early commercial progress, worth billions, from biopharma partners. It’s one of the reasons we invested in @proximabio.
