LOFI huge upside potential. We hit our ATH almost 2 years ago.. The $LOFI team and community have been relentlessly building out the Yeti eco system So much more to come for LOFI as we enter this bull run. I won’t be in Singapore for SUI basecamp this year But you can be sure the YETI will be kicking up a storm. Everyone loves LOFI 🥶

The funds from the $3.8M NEAR Intents hack were sent back in full. We are stopping the investigation. Please use bug bounties instead of disrupting the services.

Pretty big deal for $lofi on $sui
After many discussions and future planning over the last few weeks, I'm happy to announce that the Lofi team will be creating a new Sui DEX in Q4. We've entered into a verbal agreement with the Full Sail team to acquire their codebase, all correlated audits, and retain the development team's guidance. In addition to this, we will be working with tenured Sui developers who we know and trust as we launch the newest DEX on @SuiNetwork. We have no plans for this DEX to integrate lending, borrowing, or perps markets that can open up a can of worms and expose many attack vectors for hackers. We're cognizant of recent and past events within Sui's ecosystem on the security front. As the founder of a project that lost nearly $2M in LP position when Cetus was hacked, I truly understand how crucial it is to have a secure protocol, app, or product. For this reason, we are being very intentional with our decision to remain purely a DEX—one focused on being the best version of itself and a highly capital-efficient DAMM. We have no plans to launch a token either. Fees from the DEX will go back towards buying lofi-2:native, supporting the ecosystem, and increasing liquidity depth across different pairs. This move is forward-thinking and it also prioritizes our community and Sui's ecosystem. My #1 goal is to make this DEX the most trusted and secure place to swap assets on Sui Network. If we reach a big TVL one day, that will be great, but for now our focus will be working alongside partners who understand our core business and want to bring liquidity to the best DEX on Sui Network. From our due diligence, we learned Full Sail's exploit was related to a bad oracle price that created a cascade effect on DeFi positions, but the core DEX itself was unaffected. We also learned that Full Sail's DEX audits by Asymptotic are verifiably solid and were reviewed by Mysten Labs at the time. Additional audits will be evaluated and conducted as necessary. We are taking steps in the right direction to continue making Lofi a pillar of trust and optimism on Sui Network. Thank you for your support thus far and see you at Basecamp! 🥶

interesting NEAR is proposing reducing inflation 36% in a span of 2 years with possible eventual endgame of fixed supply monitoring

Higher for $near

i) this is on a bridge connecting to near, it is not near itself ii) if we wrote off chains for having hacks, then BTC and ETH would be below zero today trillions

My take on the whole Near privacy vs permissioned drama: We have had hardcore cypherpunk systems in crypto for decades. That has been the entire ethos of this industry, and they has taken us this far. We have the fruits of that experiment. We also have the scars, too. Incredible amounts of lost funds, North Korean exploits, user harm, etc. A new experiment, one where we can discern between good and bad and take action as a result, is worth having. Spare me the slippery slope of "but all our freedoms will be threatened!" We still have the maximally permissionless systems too - you can use those.
Crypto space really has a choice - grow the f up or get sidelined with random regulations. Saying we can not do anything when we are programming decentralized system is just untrue. Banks run AI for fraud detection but are inherently centralized and require KYC. At the same time KYC doesn't solve any of real problems as we know. We have better data and talent to create systems that don't require KYC and actually deter criminals while giving full freedom to real users. By working together we can totally weed out crypto of criminal activity. Criminal TAM is way smaller than all of economy moving onchain we are targeting. Decentralization != disorganization

Anyone not liking that @near_intents ultimately aims to protect users and helps stop transfer/recover stolen funds through SHIELD is free to deploy their own contract/build their own system (permissionlessly) on @NEARProtocol to transfer funds without any kind of safeguards or attempt to curb illegal activity and assume all consequences that come with that in whatever jurisdiction you operate. Much prefer @near_intents approach to position themselves as a business that can actually attract and seamlessly onboard legitimate users and appreciate what it's done for $NEAR. Given the billions of legitimate transfers growing everyday, I don't think I'm alone in believing that. Thanks @ilblackdragon and @AlexAuroraDev and rest of the Near Intents team.

NEAR has been executing at the intersection of crypto, agentic AI, and privacy with incredible traction.  Excited to launch the Bitwise NEAR ETF today, ticker $NRR.  Take a look —
The future is NEAR. Introducing $NRR—the Bitwise NEAR ETF—giving investors exposure to the emerging agentic economy. $NRR is the first spot $NEAR ETP in the U.S. and offers in-house staking to maximize NEAR's ~5% staking rewards.* Why @NEARprotocol? ↳ Built at the intersection of AI x crypto by foundational AI researchers: The team helped shape modern AI, and now they're building its transaction layer. ↳ Growing quickly: NEAR Intents has processed $32B+ in volume, up from under $1B a year ago. ↳ Designed for security: NEAR Intents settle cross-chain transactions through smart contracts to avoid the potential risks of centralized bridges. ↳ Made for scale: Transactions finalize in ~1.2 seconds and cost a fraction of a cent. ↳ Smart tokenomics: With a ~$6B market cap, NEAR's supply is fully unlocked, inflation was recently halved to 2.5% per year, and fees now fund buybacks. Why in-house staking? Staking in-house brings Bitwise's institutional expertise directly to NRR investing with transparency, security, and oversight. As AI and crypto converge, the Bitwise NEAR ETF ($NRR) gives investors straightforward exposure to the network leading the charge. Learn more at nrretf.com
