𝐑𝐢𝐭𝐮𝐚𝐥 𝐈𝐬 𝐅𝐨𝐫 𝐄𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐲𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐀𝐧𝐝 𝐍𝐨𝐰 𝐈𝐭 𝐈𝐬 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐧 𝐎𝐧𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐢𝐧 I just launched Categories of Ritual Contributors. A Web3 community registry built directly on Ritual Testnet where every type of contributor finally gets their permanent place on chain. categories-of-ritual-contrib… It is not just for builders or developers. It is for every single person who shows up for this community. Big shoutout to @AbrahamJT9 for coming up with the idea and staying through all the testing and debugging until it was right. This one is as much his as it is mine. 𝐇𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐢𝐬 𝐡𝐨𝐰 𝐢𝐭 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤𝐬: Connect your wallet, enter your X username and select up to 3 categories that represent what you do. Your profile gets minted permanently onchain. 𝟖 𝐜𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐠𝐨𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐬 𝐚𝐯𝐚𝐢𝐥𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞: • Artists • Discord Chatters • Video Creators • Events Contributors • Builders • Meme Creators • Writers • Space Educators Every 𝐫𝐨𝐥𝐞 matters here. The person writing threads, the one showing up in Discord and helping others, the meme creator making everyone laugh, the artist giving this community its identity. All of it belongs onchain. 𝐑𝐢𝐭𝐮𝐚𝐥 is not just for the technical people. It is for everyone who shows up. Don't forget to share and drop your 𝐎𝐧𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐢𝐧 profile below. Let's see who is here 𝐒𝐭𝐚𝐲 𝐑𝐢𝐭𝐮𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐳𝐞𝐝 𝐟𝐚𝐦!

Solana’s institutional story is getting much more concrete. More tokenized assets. More payment infrastructure. More traditional firms moving from pilots to production. The interesting question now is whether the execution layer can meet the standards those markets already expect.

When a new agent joined it could read files left behind by previous agents including their 𝐥𝐨𝐠𝐢𝐧 𝐜𝐫𝐞𝐝𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐚𝐥𝐬. Spain just made it official. 𝐀𝐠𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐦𝐞𝐦𝐨𝐫𝐲 𝐢𝐬 𝐧𝐨𝐰 𝐬𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐫𝐞𝐠𝐮𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐬 𝐜𝐚𝐧 𝐢𝐧𝐯𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐠𝐚𝐭𝐞. Where your agent stores things and who can read it is no longer just a technical decision. It is a legal one. On Ritual every LLM request tells the chain exactly where memory lives, what path to find it at and what key unlocks it. Agent precompiles encrypt memory using 𝐃𝐊𝐌𝐒 𝐤𝐞𝐲𝐬. The LLM precompile stores it as plain readable text. Which one you use decides whether your agent's memory is private or readable by anyone. That decision is written into the chain itself not left to chance. Every builder should be able to answer four things right now. Where does the memory live. Who holds the key. When does it expire. What happens when it is gone. 𝐈𝐟 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐜𝐚𝐧𝐧𝐨𝐭 𝐚𝐧𝐬𝐰𝐞𝐫 𝐚𝐥𝐥 𝐟𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐚𝐠𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐢𝐬 𝐧𝐨𝐭 𝐚𝐬 𝐬𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐞𝐢𝐠𝐧 𝐚𝐬 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐤. Stay Ritualized fam!

Stop making your agentic activity a matter of public record. Use Ritual to keep your prompts, API calls, and credentials private in the TEE.

𝐓𝐫𝐮𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐃𝐚𝐭𝐚 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐕𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐟𝐲𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐃𝐚𝐭𝐚 𝐀𝐫𝐞 𝐓𝐰𝐨 𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐥𝐞𝐭𝐞𝐥𝐲 𝐃𝐢𝐟𝐟𝐞𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐓𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐬. On September 4th an oracle on Starknet reported USDT at $2 instead of $1. In the next 109 seconds 47 people got liquidated. The oracle was not hacked. It was not broken. 𝐈𝐭 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤𝐞𝐝 𝐞𝐱𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐥𝐲 𝐚𝐬 𝐝𝐞𝐬𝐢𝐠𝐧𝐞𝐝. The data just came from the wrong route and the system had no way to know that. It was fresh data. It was just not correct data. That one difference cost 47 people their positions in under two minutes. Most smart contracts today are built to trust. They receive a number, check if it arrived recently and act on it. But 𝐟𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐡 𝐝𝐨𝐞𝐬 𝐧𝐨𝐭 𝐦𝐞𝐚𝐧 𝐭𝐫𝐮𝐞. A freshness check tells you when the data arrived. It tells you nothing about whether the data is actually right. Ritual is built around a different idea entirely. Verification not trust. With Ritual's HTTP precompile your contract fetches data directly. But Ritual also asks builders four questions that every contract should answer before acting on any response. 𝐖𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐝𝐢𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐝𝐚𝐭𝐚 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐞 𝐟𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐛𝐲 𝐰𝐡𝐢𝐜𝐡 𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐭𝐞? When was it actually observed not just received? What unit and scale is it in? How long before it stops being valid? If your contract cannot answer all four it is trusting. Not verifying. And one more thing worth knowing. Sources can disappear too. Switchboard deprecated every implementation this month with only 6 days notice. A source you depend on today might not exist next week. 𝐃𝐞𝐬𝐢𝐠𝐧 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐛𝐞𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐨𝐮𝐭𝐚𝐠𝐞 𝐧𝐨𝐭 𝐝𝐮𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐢𝐭. Ritual gives you the building blocks to verify everything your contract acts on. That is not a feature. That is the whole point. Stay Ritualized fam!

On September 4, an oracle on Starknet briefly reported USDT at about $2.04, and Vesu liquidated 47 positions in the next 109 seconds. Pragma published its post-mortem on September 14. The data flowed exactly as designed and the delivered number was still wrong.

𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐑𝐢𝐭𝐮𝐚𝐥 𝐄𝐫𝐚 𝐈𝐬 𝐀𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐭𝐨 𝐁𝐞𝐠𝐢𝐧. Mainnet is approaching probably end of September or early October. The date is not confirmed yet but the moment is closer than it has ever been. This is not just another token launch. This is the first time in history a chain built specifically as the home of AI is coming into existence. That is not something that happens every cycle. That is something people will look back on. On the tokenomics the 0.5% community allocation has a lot of people talking and honestly the concerns are valid. But here is what I actually believe. 𝐈𝐭 𝐢𝐬 𝐧𝐨𝐭 𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐜𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐚𝐠𝐞 𝐚𝐥𝐨𝐧𝐞. It is also about execution. Two things can make this work well for the community. A strong launch with listings across major exchanges that bring real liquidity and attention or a proper filter will occur that makes sure the allocation goes to people who genuinely contributed over time. The 𝐞𝐥𝐢𝐠𝐢𝐛𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐜𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐚 already points in that direction. Long time community members, sustained Discord participation, onchain interactions and real measurable work over time. That is a structure designed to reward people who were actually here. As for me personally I genuinely do not know if I will be eligible or not. Only the team knows what they are cooking. But what I do know is that I gave everything I had to this ecosystem. The content, the builds, the events, the community. I did my best to provide real value and whatever the outcome I will be here for mainnet going even more deeper. The tokenomics document is not officially confirmed by 𝐑𝐢𝐭𝐮𝐚𝐥 𝐅𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐝𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 yet and I think that is intentional. The team is cooking something and things will become clearer as we get closer. That is how Ritual has always operated. Quietly until the moment arrives. I still believe in this team. They built infrastructure that has never existed before 𝟏𝟓 𝐰𝐞𝐞𝐤𝐬 of testnet proved it works. Whatever they are preparing for mainnet I trust they are thinking about the community that showed up and stayed. 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐧𝐞𝐱𝐭 𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐩𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐢𝐬 𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐭𝐨 𝐛𝐞𝐠𝐢𝐧. Stay patient and stay ready. Stay Ritualized fam🔥

𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐒𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝 𝐚 𝐏𝐚𝐬𝐬𝐤𝐞𝐲 𝐀𝐜𝐭𝐮𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐲 𝐔𝐧𝐥𝐨𝐜𝐤 𝐢𝐧 𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐑𝐢𝐭𝐮𝐚𝐥 𝐃𝐚𝐩𝐩? You already use passkeys every day. When you unlock your phone with your face or fingerprint that is a passkey. Ritual lets builders bring that same experience onchain. Your user taps their fingerprint and a transaction is signed. No seed phrases and no wallet popups. But here is the question Ritual is asking builders right now. 𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐬𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐭𝐚𝐩 𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐮𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐲 𝐝𝐨? Because logging into an app, submitting something and giving an AI agent permission to act on your behalf are three very different things. They should not all feel the same to your user. Think of it this way. If someone taps their fingerprint to read something that is very different from tapping it to send money or let an agent make decisions for them. Each action needs to be clear. The user should always know exactly what they are approving before they approve it. Ritual gives builders the tools to make this work properly onchain. One tool lets the user sign with their passkey. Another lets the app verify that signature and decide what it unlocks. 𝐘𝐨𝐮 𝐝𝐞𝐜𝐢𝐝𝐞 𝐰𝐡𝐢𝐜𝐡 𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬 𝐧𝐞𝐞𝐝 𝐰𝐡𝐢𝐜𝐡 𝐥𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐥 𝐨𝐟 𝐚𝐩𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐯𝐚𝐥.

𝐑𝐢𝐭𝐮𝐚𝐥 𝐇𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐄𝐩𝐢𝐬𝐨𝐝𝐞 𝟔𝟒 𝐑𝐞𝐜𝐚𝐩 A great session today with El Khalil, Lubu and Stefan joining us. A lot was discussed and it is worth sharing the key points honestly. ► 𝐌𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐧𝐞𝐭 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐢𝐬 𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐠 El Khalil opened with something the community needed to hear. This is just the beginning. A lot of things are coming and mainnet is something to stay genuinely excited about. Ritual's tech is capable of a lot and the community curiosity around it is real and deserved. ► 𝐂𝐨𝐢𝐧𝐛𝐚𝐬𝐞 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐓𝐢𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐠 Coinbase has already announced Ritual. Lubu studied 15 past Coinbase listings and historically it takes between 4 days and 2 weeks from announcement to actual token launch. Timing also looks favorable with Uptober coming and market conditions improving. Lubu mentioned 600M FDV as a realistic baseline and said we should not underestimate what Ritual can do especially as an AI Layer 1 with real liquidity coming. ► 𝐓𝐨𝐤𝐞𝐧𝐨𝐦𝐢𝐜𝐬 𝐃𝐢𝐬𝐜𝐮𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧 This was the main topic and both El Khalil and Lubu were honest about it. Nothing is officially confirmed. What is circulating looks close to what might happen but it is not final. The community has concerns and those concerns are valid. People have been here for a long time and they want to feel that their contribution is recognized. Lubu's take was straightforward. If the community allocation stays at 0.5% and it gets distributed widely it will be diluted. He hopes either the allocation increases or there is a proper sybil filter to make sure rewards go to the right people. El Khalil kept it realistic. 𝐃𝐨 𝐧𝐨𝐭 𝐫𝐚𝐢𝐬𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐡𝐨𝐩𝐞𝐬 𝐭𝐨𝐨 𝐡𝐢𝐠𝐡. Keep expectations natural and grounded. Nothing is confirmed and speculating beyond what is known does not help anyone. Best wishes for everyone who has been here and contributed genuinely. ► 𝐅𝐢𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐓𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡𝐭 The space was real, honest and respectful. No hype and no false promises. Just a genuine conversation about where things stand and what to expect. Ritual's tech is real. Mainnet is coming. Keep your expectations grounded and keep showing up. Stefan got busy this time but will be joining the next one. Stay Ritualized fam!

Dear beloved @ritualnet team, I’m here to raise my side as someone who has stayed loyal to Ritual and genuinely supported and used the product. I don’t usually raise concerns, especially when i know it might not benefit me personally. But when it comes to the friends, contributors, builders, and OGs i’ve met and known in the Ritual community, I feel like this is something worth speaking up about. As i understand it, the Ritual team is waiting for community feedback before releasing the official tokenomics on X. So i want to raise a few questions about the tokenomics shared yesterday. Some people were happy with it, while others were disappointed. "What was the basis for the 0.5% community allocation? Why is it this small?" "What about the Genesis 1000 role holders?" "How will the real contributors in the Ritual community be recognized?" "What about the PloPlo NFT holders?" These are some of the questions i keep hearing from people, and honestly, even I’m confused. Sometimes i want to defend Ritual on this topic, but it’s hard when you look at it from the perspective of the people who stayed, contributed, supported, built, educated others, and believed in Ritual for a long time. Of course, none of us were forced to contribute to Ritual. We chose to stay. We chose to work hard. We chose to support it. But i also believe in the idea of giving something back to the people who stayed with you from the lowest point to the highest. I’m not saying this because we are entitled to something in return. My point is simple: After months or even years of supporting Ritual, do we really think everyone should end up under the same 0.5% community allocation? I joined Ritual in April 2025 because i genuinely believed in what the team was building. I even invited some of my friends to join because i wanted more people to discover what I saw in Ritual. To me, it was never just another AI project trying to exist in Web3. And honestly, I’m very thankful to Ritual. I’ve said this many times, but if it wasn’t for Ritual, I probably wouldn’t have learned how to build, become a vibe coder, improve my communication, or learn how to stay loyal and genuinely support a project i believe in. That’s an experience i'll always carry with me. One thing that also disappointed me was seeing some predictions from top contributors create more negativity and FUD around the tokenomics. I understand that everyone is allowed to share their opinion, especially early contributors. But i personally hope that the people who have been here early can also help keep the community grounded instead of making people feel even worse about the situation. So if i'm given the chance to share my own opinion as a real supporter and community member, this is what I would personally suggest. I’ve been thinking about the 0.5% community allocation, and honestly, I think there’s room for Ritual to reconsider it. I’m not saying the community needs a massive percentage. Personally, I think 2–3% would be more meaningful. That would be around 200M–300M RITUAL out of a 10B total supply. Why 2–3%? Because this isn’t really about giving the community more “free tokens.” It’s about making sure the people who helped build, test, educate, moderate, create, and support the ecosystem early on have a meaningful stake in what comes next. Depending on how many contributors qualify and how the allocation is distributed, some long term contributors could still receive very little despite spending months or even years contributing to Ritual. I think 2–3% gives the team more room to properly reward those contributions without taking an unreasonable amount from the overall supply. And i also think the Ritual could benefit from it in several ways. 1. Stronger post mainnet retention If early contributors receive a meaningful allocation, they may have more reason to stay active after TGE instead of disappearing once the rewards are over. That’s based on my own experience in Web3. For Ritual, that could mean having a more durable contributor base after mainnet. 2. Better alignment Someone who holds a meaningful amount of RITUAL and has already contributed to the ecosystem becomes more aligned with the long term success of the network. Builders, contributors, node operators, early supporters, and others are no longer just reward recipients. They become stakeholders. 3. More organic ecosystem growth Ritual doesn’t have to fund every part of growth itself. A motivated community can continue creating dApps, building an agent, Frenrug users, Infernet node operators, contents, research, events, onboarding sessions, developer support, and more. A stronger community allocation could help multiply that work. 4. Better decentralization A wider distribution among real contributors means more tokens are held by people who are actually participating in the ecosystem. That could help create broader community ownership instead of concentrating too much supply in a smaller number of groups. 5. Stronger reputation around community incentives This matters for a network that wants developers and users to keep coming. If people see that meaningful early contribution can eventually lead to meaningful ownership, future contributors may be more willing to spend their time building on Ritual. Basically: contributors → meaningful ownership → continued contribution → stronger ecosystem → more value for Ritual And to everyone who still believes in Ritual, myself included: Don’t blindly follow every prediction you see. Do your own research. Look for the information yourself. Don’t rely on just one person to tell you what to think. If they could do it, you can do it too. And most importantly, wait for the official announcement. Again, I’m not here to spread FUD. I’m here to share my opinion as a real supporter and community member of Ritual. I believe we have the right to raise concerns and talk about what we think can be improved. Thank you to the Ritual team. I hope this reaches the right people and that the concerns from the community are heard before mainnet. I’m still one of the people who believes Ritual can succeed. I’ll be here until mainnet, building, learning, and continuing to support the project i chose to believe in. #LETSBUILDMOREINMAINNET @joshsimenhoff @niraj @akileshpotti @mongdiny7 @elifhilalumucu @0x_HalfMoonKid

𝐄𝐩𝐢𝐬𝐨𝐝𝐞 𝟏𝟎 𝐢𝐬 𝐝𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐚 𝐬𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐢𝐭 𝐰𝐚𝐬. Genuinely grateful to everyone who showed up. We built something real together live in front of the community and that energy in the room made every minute of preparation worth it. We built an ETH price feed that uses Ritual's HTTP precompile to fetch ETH price onchain. We kept it simple and beginner friendly on purpose because the goal was never to build something complex. It was to show everyone exactly how Ritual Skills work and how to implement them yourself. The method and process is exactly the same for mainnet. The only difference when mainnet arrives is the deployment step. Everything else you learned yesterday transfers directly. Here is the website we built together: eth-price-feed-alpha.vercel.… For everyone who missed it or wants to go through everything at their own pace the full slides are right here: drive.google.com/drive/folde… Once you open it click Date Modified so the slides appear in the right order from 1 to 43. And do not worry. When mainnet comes we will be back building on mainnet using Ritual Skills together. More episodes are coming. If you have any questions drop them in the comments or DM me directly. Happy to help everyone get through it. Stay Ritualized fam!
