Unpopular opinion: Most likely we are already in a bull run, but it won't ever feel like a bull run again. Cycles are dead. There won't be a 3-month mania anymore where everything 100x's and your barber asks you about altcoins. It'll be stablecoin volume quietly doubling. RWA TVL hitting $100B without a single CT thread going viral about it. Crypto companies posting actual earnings. Boring products serving real people in real markets. It will be slow and hardly exciting for most. But it will be steady, sustainable and it will be compounding long-term. Most of you will miss it because of your dopamine addiction and short-term horizon, but bad news is that the casino won't reopen. Do yourself a favor and grow up. Or you're better off just leaving.

Brazilian real stablecoins: $79M → $121M supply. 1.7K → 35K holders. 21x holder growth, driven by 5 different BRL-pegged tokens — BRZ ($90M, the largest by supply), BRLA (26K holders, fastest growing), BBRL, BRL1, and BRLT. Each serves a different corridor. BRZ is the institutional workhorse. BRLA connects PIX to onchain settlement via Visa card spending. Brazil's 2025 regulatory framework is accelerating all of them. Read more about Brazilian real stablecoins, and dive deeper into BRLA, in our report with @Visa → dune.com/stablecoin-report?u…

I have always viewed blockchain technology as an amazing truth machine. It lets anyone trustlessly and mathematically verify that something took place at some point in time - really remarkable! This truth machine is even more important with recent improvements in AI, which in some sense is a sort of "anti-truth machine" - LLMs tend to hallucinate, generative AI lets you create anything you can describe, etc.

Announcements like these get me really bullish on Web3. Crypto cards are booming. No IOF on international transactions (vs. 4.38% on traditional cards) combined with easy BRL conversion is a massive incentive for adoption.
🇧🇷 PIX is live on ether.fi/cash 💸 Instantly move BRL ↔️ USD — no 3.5% IOF, low fees, fast transfers. • Deposit BRL → auto-converts to USDC • Spend USD & earn 3% back • Pay or send directly via PIX Simple. Secure. Rewarding.

It’s official: Trexx is the first sovereign L1 in the @TanssiNetwork ecosystem. Our vision remains the same: invisible blockchain; visible benefits. The global games and esports industry tops $180B, yet billions of fan interactions don’t become revenue. Fewer than 5% of gamers make in-game purchases, and over 80% of teams operate at a loss, dependent on sponsorships they don’t control.  Trexx’s blockchain was born to change that equation. With our loyalty-focused infrastructure, we have:  • AI-driven engagement (missions and campaigns that adapt to behavior)  • Behavioral credit (a score based on fan activity, not just finances)  • Tokenized digital products (collectibles, passes, rewards) This lets teams and organizations control their economy, and lets brands launch on-chain campaigns with real metrics and zero user friction. What this means:  • Control over fees, throughput, and loyalty logic  • EVM compatibility + interoperability with Ethereum and across Tanssi L1s  • Predictable fees and fast confirmations (simple UX, no buzzwords)  • Tanssi handles the technical stack; Trexx focuses on product and growth What this enables:  • Fans → points become real rewards (gift cards, discounts, event access)  • Brands → on-chain campaigns designed and funded directly, with performance visibility  • Teams and creators → tailored loyalty, recurring revenue, and less dependence on sponsorships What we already have:  • 16 teams in the ecosystem (e.g., @w7mesports, @vasco_esports , @imperialesports, Juventus)  • Recognition at the Visa Everywhere Initiative (LATAM) for our credit model backed by gamer behavior Plans:  • Cross-L1 collaboration within the Tanssi ecosystem (e.g., Wirex)  • Gaming first → expansion into fintech and RWAs (payments, collateral, real-world benefits)  • Advanced loyalty mechanics (passes, tiers, multichain campaigns) with an invisible fan UX To celebrate: We’re launching the unique collectible: TANSSI // GENESIS, a “thank you” to everyone building with us. How to get it: Sign up for Trexx Club (club.trexx.gg) Check your collectible right in your inventory Done! Share it with your friends by tagging @TanssiNetwork, let’s build together.

When people think about esports, Asian countries usually come to mind (and rightfully so). But Brazil is also building a solid tradition in this field. @w7mesports has won four world championships across different games, @LOUDgg became Valorant World Champion in 2022, and @MIBR claimed the ESWC title back in 2006, just to name a few. @ggtrexx is helping some of these teams, and many others, to create new ways to engage with their massive communities through its innovative loyalty and credit infrastructure, all powered by @TanssiNetwork. Today is also a historic day for Tanssi, as Trexx’s chain officially debuts as the first L1 in the Tanssi ecosystem to go live on mainnet. Many more announcements are coming soon — stay tuned! 🪩❤️
The first L1 is now live on Tanssi mainnet: Trexx. A Brazilian gaming and social finance platform launching on a $180B global industry, where billions in engagement still don’t convert into revenue. Now, @ggtrexx is changing that ↓

Operators are the backbone of L1 security in Tanssi. Verification. Security. Liveness. That’s how new L1s inherit ETH-backed trust. Meet who’s working with Tanssi 👇

THE smartest dog alive took notes on Tanssi Cast ep.07 🤓 Why crypto companies CAN't ignore LATAM: – stables are infra, not speculation – Brazil is the anchor market (80%+ volume) – local stables (BRL, COP, MXN) = the next settlement layer tl;dr in the shots 👇

28 days staking my TANSSI, and here’s how it went 👇 @TanssiNetwork lets you stake in two ways: 1️⃣ Ethereum vault (via Symbiotic) 2️⃣ Native Tanssi L1 with sequencers my numbers after the first month: Ethereum: 7,164 TANSSI Tanssi L1: 2,165 TANSSI Total: 9,329 TANSSI (~8.48% on 110k staked) early, but this isn’t just about yield - staking here helps secure every Tanssi powered appchain 🛡️

Appchains don’t need to wait months to bootstrap validators anymore. With the @TanssiNetwork vault going live on Symbiotic, sovereign chains can launch in minutes with Ethereum-grade security from day one.
