wrangling the omniverse @ @RujiraNetwork

Joined November 2021
PSA: I started here and I continue here in order to build products that make users’ lives better, create a fairer and more equal financial system, and most importantly build a system of ownership that can be accessed by those very same users. These principles are what drew me to build on Ethereum in 2016, drove me out in 2017 when ICO mania was its (first, as it turns out) complete antithesis, and was the single foundational demand I made when I re-entered the space and we founded Kujira in 2021. It’s been our north star ever since. It seems they’re being tested again. Let me be clear, we have the conviction, the tools, the runway and the mandate to finally see this through and I do not plan on going anywhere else. We are fortunate though, we have an incredible mission-led team, and a shared experience, history and learnings from the last ~10 years of building on blockchains, and the resources to execute. But tested they are. This isn’t some hype driven disillusionment like ICO mania, NFTs, hollow VC chains with inflated valuations, or meme coins. It’s easy to attribute those to hype, greed, the general human condition. Instead it’s a quieter, more insipid meta. Well respected teams selling out and abandoning token holders. Founders moving on without any regard to the communities and token holders that put them in that position. I understand that markets and times are hard these days. I’m sure for some forgoing those core values in order to stay alive is justifiable. Unfortunately as the proverb goes - the road to hell is paved with good intentions. However, through all of this, my original statement stands. We do this in the open, together, and for each other, or we don’t do it at all. We continue ⚒️

UPDATE: It appears @tether has unfrozen THORChain addresses. Trading/etc will resume soon
It appears that USDT has chosen to blacklist THORChain vaults of USDT on the TRON blockchain. This is unprecedented in our industry and raises questions for all DeFi protocols about the safety of this asset.

Turns out AI + Clarke’s 3rd Law + the X algo is the perfect combination for driving mass hysteria

Keen to integrate for easier hardware support on your own app? Install a manual bundle from github.com/RujiraNetwork/con… And check out the reference integration at gitlab.com/thorchain/rujira-… Or tag your favourite app and lean on them to integrate 🤷‍♂️

Integration is pending on the @RujiraNetwork front end and will be live when the extension hits the stores.

Initial support will be rolling out over the next few days for all supported @THORChain and @RujiraNetwork chains: $ATOM $AVAX $BASE $BTC $BCH $BNB $DOGE $ETH $LTC $RUNE $RUJI $SOL $TRX $XRP $ZEC and of course, $XMR

It has no RPC or other network dependencies. Your data stays in the extension. Balance queries and UTXO fetching are the responsibility of your trusted integrating app.

No longer. Rujira Connect is your user friendly, developer friendly, 100% offline hardware wallet signing companion. It guides you through the connect and signing flows, and remembers your hardware wallet address allowing connected sites to request access

And it's hard for app developers to integrate. You need to store the connected address for each device for each supported network. A user has to go through the approval flow for every site they visit

Those of us that use them often value the security and anonymity of them. We don't want balance requests going to 3rd party servers and linking wallets together.

Integrating hardware wallets to a web app is, well, hard. They're not like your typical hot wallet which can generate an address for every chain it supports. Each supported chain requires an installed app, and an unlock, open and approve flow for even retrieving the address.

Think we'll be ok 🧑‍🍳
Are you prepared for, not only how you'll trade, but hold, your Cosmos assets when Osmosis and Keplr Wallet close down? I give both 6 months tops. 1) Osmosis. No secret it's moving on. Community pool OSMO is being burned. Community pool BTC is being used to plug the recent exploit. 2) Keplr wallet. No posts on X for 5+ months. Stopped supporting new chains already. Costs of supporting the wallet outweighting revenue. Be warned.

Thorchain is fighting a good battle. They made a lot of mistakes along the way, but they are still here, stubbornly defending core crypto principles.

Chad with all the composure in the world 💪
. @CBarraford did amazing in the most hostile ambush ever and they couldn't even find a way to clip him to make him look bad despite doing the most; it actually won me over to the THORchain side of this "debate" whereas I was a bit skeptical before . . .

I'll never understand founders like Pacman. Incredible standing in the market with top protocols like Blur and then Blast, the best investors backing him, all the attention you could possibly ask for. And instead of building something huge and lasting out of all that, rather decided to max extract the shit out of it for a quick buck in the short term. Too many such cases, unfortunately. Which is exactly why we should appreciate the few brilliant, honest builders so much more. the ones who refuse to take the path of least resistance. If you find one, just go perpetually long.
Blast will be shutting down. We launched Blast with the goal of building a self-sustaining chain for users and developers. Unfortunately, the economics of operating the chain no longer make sense: the ongoing costs of maintaining Blast exceed the revenue generated by the L2, and we do not see a credible path to making the chain economically sustainable. As a result, we've made the difficult decision to wind Blast down. We're sorry to the users and developers who believed in Blast, built on it, and supported the ecosystem. Our priority now is making the shutdown as smooth and safe as possible. We're asking all users to withdraw their assets from Blast to Ethereum mainnet, including any balances held in the Blast PWA. To make this easier, we will be reducing the withdrawal delay to 24 hours. As part of the shutdown process, we'll first begin withdrawing Blast's Lido assets. This process is expected to take approximately one week. During this period, withdrawals will temporarily be unavailable, even after the withdrawal delay is reduced to 24 hours. Once that process is complete, withdrawals will resume with the new 24-hour delay. Users will have until October 26, 2026 to withdraw through the normal Blast interface. After October 26, assets will remain withdrawable, but users will need to interact directly with the Blast bridge contracts on Ethereum L1. We'll publish detailed instructions before then. We strongly encourage everyone to withdraw their assets to Ethereum mainnet before October 26.

Human motivations are funny hey You get oppressed, and so you Fear the thing Fight the thing Replace the thing Become the thing Then without moral direction, ultimately become the oppressor …or just get paid by the original oppressor to lie for their own gain
