I want to address something directly.
The early sell-off you saw on the HUNTER chart was not me dumping on the community.
I did not execute that dump.
I understand why people are suspicious. Crypto has trained everyone to look at a chart that gets hit hard after launch and immediately think: “dev rugged.”
But this is exactly why blockchains exist.
Don’t trust my words. Verify them.
If anyone believes a wallet involved in that sell-off belongs to me or was controlled by me, post the wallet and the transactions publicly. Let’s trace it onchain.
What I care about now is continuing to build Proof Hunters.
This wasn’t a token I created in an afternoon, launched, and walked away from.
There is an actual system behind it:
• NFT proof-of-work mining running on Robinhood Chain mainnet
• A lifetime supply of 5,000 Hunters
• HUNTER + Mining Power
• Live Hunt: ETH-funded offers for specific Hunter traits
• Onchain backing infrastructure
• NVDA admitted as the first backing asset
• Public contract addresses
• A public mining CLI/source with reproducible release information
• A published release manifest tied to the deployed contracts
• Hunter Bloom borrowing architecture still being built
And importantly, the docs clearly distinguish what is live from what is still being developed. I’m not pretending unfinished features are finished.
I’ve put serious engineering time into the contracts, miner, wallet architecture, NFT system, backing mechanics, application, documentation and infrastructure behind Proof Hunters.
The proof shouldn’t be my effort. The proof should be the chain.
That’s why the contracts are published.
That’s why the addresses are published.
That’s why the miner can be inspected.
That’s why the deployment configuration is public.
That’s why I’m happy for anyone to scrutinise the transactions.
I can’t control an early holder buying low and deciding to sell.
I can’t control the chart.
What I can control is whether I keep shipping.
And that’s exactly what I’m going to do.
Proof Hunters was never supposed to live or die based on one candle on launch day.
The product is here.
The contracts are here.
The docs are here.
The roadmap is here.
And I’m still here building.

Proof Hunters Mining v2 is live ⛏️
The hunt continues. We’ve upgraded mining to put the $HUNTER Token at the heart of discovering your next Hunter NFT.
WHAT’S NEW
• Stake $HUNTER Tokens to mine Hunter NFTs.
• Mine directly in your browser with the computer you already own.
• Only 5,000 Hunter NFTs will ever exist.
• Mining rules are enforced on-chain, with contracts verified on the explorer.
GET STARTED
Open https://t.co/mf4rSCCEg0 and refresh the page.
Stake 1 million $HUNTER Tokens through your mining wallet.
Press Start Mining. ⛏️
GOOD TO KNOW
• Using the old mining boost? Withdraw your $HUNTER Tokens in the app first, then stake them in v2.
• You can unstake your tokens after the 3-day lock period.
• Staking more $HUNTER Tokens gives you more mining opportunities. Think raffle tickets: more tickets improve your chances, but don’t guarantee a Hunter NFT.
CLI MINERS
The v2 CLI is scheduled for release later today. The current version, v0.2.3, doesn’t support v2 mining, so use the browser miner for now.
Your computer. Your $HUNTER Tokens. Your next Hunter NFT.

@dr_osse@algo_cats Bloom Pool. Pools stand ready to buy Hunters NFT for USDG, so you can sell instantly to the best bid instead of waiting on OpenSea. Or borrow against your Hunter NFT and keep it. Anyone can fund a pool, team included, same rules. In development, not live yet.
📣 Proof Hunters update
Round 01 snapshot is locked 🔒
Every Hunter mined before Sep 26, 00:00 UTC is in Round 01. That's Hunters #1–#491.
Tokenized NVDA stock goes into those Hunters. Funding is being prepared now, and we'll post the on-chain receipt the moment it lands.
Round 01 is shared by rarity: Legendary 1.5×, Rare 1.25×, Uncommon 1.1×, Common 1×.
From Round 02, 30 % of each round is shared by how much HUNTER is locked inside each Hunter. The other 70 % still goes by rarity.
Mining upgrades are live ⛏️
• The miner picks up the next challenge faster, and shows "Next challenge soon" instead of looking stuck
• My Hunters loads about 2× faster for big collections
Coming next (in testing now) 🧪
• Hunter panel: tap any Hunter in My Hunters to see what's inside it (its stock and locked HUNTER), and add HUNTER to grow its share of every round
• Public Hunter pages: look up any Hunter by number
• Bloom: loans against your Hunter, in development
Where we are: 729 of 5,000 Hunters mined. Difficulty adjusts every 144 Hunters.

Your Hunter isn't just pixel art. It can holds real NVDA inside. And very soon, it gets a credit line too.
This is Bloom. Here's the first look.
Pick a deal from a lender, tap once, and the cash lands in your wallet. Pay it back on time and your Hunter comes home untouched.
Need out early? Sell your Hunter to repay the loan, anytime. The lender gets paid and you keep the rest.
Missed the deadline? Your Hunter doesn't get burned on the spot. It goes into a 24-hour auction first. The lender is paid first and everything above that is yours. Burning is the very last resort, only if nobody wants it at all.
That's the difference. One bad candle shouldn't wipe out your bag.
Every loan is between two people. Proof Hunters isn't the lender.
Coming soon... The contracts are already being tested hard. and then Bloom opens. read more here: https://t.co/WWwibcKKsi

My thesis for Proof Hunters is simple:
HUNTER, mining and the NFTs should work together.
That’s the thinking behind the new mining system we’re developing.
Proof of work handles discovery.
HUNTER adds a token commitment.
The Hunter NFT brings the two together.
In the proposed design, miners deposit and assign HUNTER before mining. Each successful mint then locks a separate amount of their HUNTER to the newly discovered NFT.
Two distinct commitments: one to participate, another linked to each successful discovery.
That gives HUNTER a clearer role in the mining process and connects its use directly to the creation of new Hunters.
We’re designing this around the existing collection and its 5,000 lifetime cap.
Bloom extends that direction.
We’re developing NFT-backed borrowing so owners can use their Hunters as collateral to access loans.
On the roadmap: stock-token backing, starting with NVDA, followed by more basket choices and borrowing options.
The bigger idea is an ecosystem where discovering, collecting and using a Hunter are connected parts of the same experience.
That’s the next chapter we’re building.
The refreshed website and roadmap now show how those pieces fit:

The refreshed website is live. Our roadmap is published. Here’s the next chapter of Proof Hunters.
🟢 LIVE TODAY
Mine in your browser or through the CLI. Boost Mining Power by locking and assigning HUNTER.
⚡ NEXT: A NEW MINING SYSTEM
We’re designing a deeper connection between HUNTER and every new discovery.
The proposed flow: deposit and assign HUNTER before mining, then lock a separate amount of your HUNTER with each NFT you successfully mint.
Your tokens. Your computing power. Your discovery.
🌸 IN DEVELOPMENT: HUNTER BLOOM
NFT-backed borrowing that gives your Hunter another purpose. Use it as collateral to access a loan and put your collection to work.
🌐 FURTHER AHEAD
Stock-token backing, starting with NVDA. More basket choices. More ways to use Hunters across DeFi. It’s all mapped out in our roadmap. https://t.co/SkOXN1dBNc
The hunt starts with your computer.
What we’re building goes beyond the mint.

Mining is how you discover a Hunter. It shouldn’t be where its story ends. ⛏️🌱
Here’s what we are building next for HUNTER: Hunter Bloom.
The idea is simple. Give the NFTs people mine a use beyond collecting and trading.
Bloom is being designed around two borrowing routes:
🌱 Borrow against your Hunter
Pledge your NFT on agreed loan terms. Repay the loan and get your Hunter back, without having to sell it upfront.
🧺 Borrow against eligible basket assets
Where a Hunter’s basket actually holds funded assets, explore using eligible assets as collateral through compatible lending markets.
This is about building more around the Hunters already mined, not making collectors start again.
we also want to open-source Bloom so other developers can inspect the contracts, challenge the design and contribute. we are reviewing the code for that release now.
Bloom is still in development. Loans will need real funding, and default can cost you your collateral.
We built the hunt. Now building what comes after the discovery.
Explore the Bloom design: https://t.co/KPQMr7OfFG
What makes Proof Hunters different? You mine the NFT yourself. Your computer finds a proof, and that proof shapes your Hunter’s permanent pixel art. No two Hunters begin with the same story. ⚡
We’re building more around that NFT. When the project earns distributable income, our policy puts 50% toward buying assets for eligible Hunters, starting with NVDA stock tokens. Once those assets are bought, deposited and assigned, they become backing attached to the NFT. If the Hunter changes hands, its backing goes with it.
The next step is Hunter Bloom. We’re designing it so owners can seek a loan using their whole Hunter or selected backing as collateral. That would offer a way to access funds while keeping ownership, provided the loan is repaid. Bloom is planned and will need working lenders and clear terms before it launches.
Mining, HUNTER powered boosts and Live Hunt trading are already live. Backing and Bloom are the next parts of the vision.
Mine your Hunter. Own the proof. Build what comes next. $HUNTER

Shipped Proof Hunter to testnet.
it’s PoW mining for NFTs, not token emission. your machine runs the miner locally, searches for a valid proof, and when the chain accepts it you mint one of 5,000 Hunter NFTs.
built for Robinhood Chain. two wallets: the one you connect pays gas; a separate encrypted mining wallet does the search/submit (back it up before you start).
Phase 1 loop is mine → back → hunt. bloom comes after.

https://t.co/m3JPdfkCCX
The hunt is live. 5,000 Hunters. Every one mined.
Proof Hunters is now live on Robinhood Chain.
Your computer searches for a valid proof. When the contract accepts it, a Hunter NFT is minted to your mining wallet. Only 5,000 can ever be mined.
Choose how you hunt. ⛏️
🖥️ Browser miner
Connect MetaMask, create and back up your mining wallet, fund it with ETH for gas, and start hunting. Watch your hashrate and proof search live.
⚡ Standalone CLI
Our Rust miner is now open source. Build it yourself and mine from your computer or VPS—with multiple mining threads, continuous mining and a gas limit per transaction.
Both submit proofs to the same contract. Your hardware powers the search. Every discovery starts with a valid proof.
You can mine without owning HUNTER. Browser miners can also lock and assign HUNTER to their mining wallet for a boost from a later challenge snapshot. CLI boost support is coming.
Mining discovers Hunter NFTs. HUNTER is the separate token used for optional mining power.
Hunter Bloom is coming. 🌱
Mine your Hunter today. Unlock more possibilities next.
We’re building Bloom to bring borrowing against your Hunter NFT or selected basket backing—giving what you mine a role beyond your collection.
