The privacy movement grows stronger when infrastructure builders and communities collaborate. Our partnership with @ethstatus / @StatusL2 has helped bring conversations about secure communication, self-sovereignty and censorship resistance to thousands of people across the Ethereum ecosystem. Together we: • Partnered on Ethereum Cypherpunk Congress 2 • Status co-founder Jarrad Hope (@jarradhope_) featured in Privacy Academy Interviews and his personal stack published From Privacy Tools to Parallel Societies: The Neo-Cypherpunk Strategy (piped.video/TSJmeNbbfyA) • Cyp (@0xcyp ) participated in "Programmable cryptography meets decentralization" talk and Ethereum Privacy Ecosystem mapping at Ethereum Cypherpunk Congress 2 Programmable cryptography meets decentralisation ( piped.video/watch?v=ww2Inbge…) Ethereum Privacy Ecosystem Mapping (piped.video/WA2PqMIO0-U) • Status's designer Alisher (@alisher ) featured in Privacy Academy, sharing how privacy, design, and decentralization can finally work together Why Crypto UX Is Broken and How We Can Fix It (piped.video/W2vL1-1beto) • Status' Protocol Research Engineer @serg_tikhomirov participated at Cypherpunk Retreat,the hands-on gathering that brought together leading builders and front-line organizers in digital privacy • Talks at both Ethereum Cypherpunk Congress 1 and 2 • Helped connect privacy builders, wallet developers and communication researchers • Continued strengthening the cypherpunk values that inspired Ethereum in the first place Events like Congress exist because organizations like Status continue investing in an open, private internet. Thank you for helping build it together.

it doesn't take millions to operate a chain in 2026 in fact you can currently offer a pretty high quality L2 for less than $500k in infra per year: sequencing+proving/RaaS: $200k RPC: $50k oracles (price feeds + VRF): $70k block explorer: $20k indexer: $15k multisig: $25k smart contract tooling: $30k security monitoring: $75k L1 costs: like $5k? lol total: $490k per year a few things to clarify: > at this rate you're not getting Etherscan, Chainlink or Dune (add about $1m per year to include them all) > to add a custodian (like Fireblock), that's another $100k recurring > some providers might require one-time integration fees > if you're not running a plain vanilla L2 (Linea stack, OP stack, etc.), you'll need to add audit costs for any small change you make (and this can go anywhere from $20k to $500k per audit) of course this doesn't include team, liquidity incentives or marketing, which is actually what costs millions 🙃

The next challenge is enabling institutions to settle assets and cash across chains without exposing sensitive data or creating new settlement risk. Linea and @bermudabayzk show that private, atomic and verifiable settlement is possible. Blog post ↓ linea.build/blog/atomic-dvp-…

quick reminder that there is still $2.79M in TVL in the @StatusL2 vaults withdraw now go go go

Protocol Guild is excited to announce that all members will receive complimentary @Keycard_ Shell hardware wallets The tools they rely on should reflect the same values they bring to their work: open source, self-custodial, and uncompromising on security

1,196 addresses deposited a total of $12.1M and received ~14% APY in rewards and accrued yield on average the stablecoin vault ended up delivering >26% average APY 🫡 there's still $3.3M sitting in the vaults —> this is your sign to withdraw now if you haven't already

GUSD pre-depositors: ⭐️ your yield has been airdropped as USDC on Linea! actual USDC yield came in ~12% above the checker estimate (hub.status.network/checker)

one of my biggest regrets about not launching @StatusL2 mainnet is that we'll never get to use our elite chain ID: 373 (direct reference to 3,3 which was the basis of the chain with native yield redistributed by reputation holders)

🔵 GUSD vault open for withdrawals 🔵 you can now withdraw your GUSD deposits in USDC or USDT on Linea Mainnet by going directly to the GUSD app: >> app.generic.money GUSD yield will be airdropped in USDC on Linea Mainnet next week

update on the GUSD vaults and airdrop: the Generic Protocol team is currently working on something behind the scenes, we hope to be able to share more before the end of the week they will then proceed to open the GUSD vault in any case funds are safu & ready to be distributed

You can withdraw your $Linea from @StatusL2 vaults 🤝

⭐️ LINEA withdrawals are LIVE ⭐️ get your LINEA tokens out of the vaults in 1 click: hub.status.network/pre-depos…

The Status Network airdrop confirms that the era of airdrops is still alive. The project also had 2 testnets, and these testnets were used as multipliers for those who deposited funds into the pre-deposit vault. This is a very interesting mechanic. It’s important to understand that simply participating in a testnet to get an airdrop is now almost impossible! @StatusL2 team, @0xcyp - please share your future plans! Will there be more reward campaigns or anything else?
