Today's Updates:

Deployer, the creator of $TN100x and $BANKR, has announced a major shift in focus as the Ham ecosystem evolves. Over the past year, the Ham cult has grown into a vibrant community of early adopters at the forefront of socialfi. Now, the journey takes a new direction with Bankr, an AI-driven trading companion designed to make crypto smarter and more accessible.

What’s Changing?

• Ham Products Winding Down: All Ham products will be gradually phased out as the team shifts focus to Bankr.

• Revenue Sharing: 100% of Bankr’s revenue will be shared with the community:

  • 60% to $BNKR stakers

  • 40% to $TN100x stakers

• $TN100x Allocation:

  • 10% burned

  • 10% to a holder-governed treasury

  • 10% to an ecosystem fund

    

Next Steps:

• Ham Holders: Convert or bridge your Ham to Base. Hamcaster locks will unlock early to ensure a smooth transition.

• Staking Details: Stay tuned for updates on how to stake BNKR and TN100x.

This evolution marks an exciting new chapter for the community. By focusing on Bankr, the team aims to bring even more value to TN100x and BNKR holders while continuing to innovate in the crypto space.

The Paragraph team has rolled out a major update to its platform, introducing a redesigned writing and reading experience that puts writers and readers at the center. Here’s what’s new:

Key Updates:

• Redesigned Publication Homepage: Showcase your best work with featured posts, popular posts sections, and an author sidebar to introduce yourself to new readers.

• Cleaner Post Page: A streamlined design with fewer distractions, global light/dark mode, and improved performance.

• Improved Collect/Subscribe Flows: Make it easier for readers to support your work.

• Simplified Theming: Customize your publication with ease.

Why It Matters:
Paragraph is committed to creating a space where writers can focus on sharing their ideas and readers can discover great writing, connect with like-minded people, and support the writers they love. These updates lay the groundwork for future features aimed at helping writers grow their audience, build deeper relationships with readers, and monetize their work in new ways.

What’s Next:
The team is exploring innovative monetization features to help writers earn money without needing to become full-time creators. They’re also experimenting with ways to integrate Paragraph more deeply into platforms like Farcaster, starting with the Paragraph mini-app.

Check out the new updates and let the team know what you think—find them on Farcaster or email hello@paragraph.xyz.

XMTP’s mission has always been clear: to build the world’s largest and most secure decentralized messaging network. Today, with support from Coinbase Wallet, Circle, ENS, Alchemy, a16z Crypto, Mask Network, and Faction VC, XMTP is launching its testnet.

Why It Matters:
Your DMs aren’t truly yours. Every message you send is hosted on servers controlled by a handful of tech CEOs. XMTP is here to change that.

What XMTP Offers:

• No Censorship: Your messages are free from interference.

• No Backdoor Surveillance: Military-grade encryption ensures privacy.

• Owned by You: Decentralized infrastructure means no CEO controls your conversations.

How It Works:

• Micro-Fees: Apps pay fees in USDC, distributed to node operators.

• Instant Delivery: Messages are delivered in milliseconds via an offchain broadcast network.

• Consensus: Critical state is maintained using Arbitrum Orbit on Base.

For Apps:
XMTP provides identity interoperability (ENS, Farcaster, Nostr, Bluesky, etc.), built-in anti-spam protection, and self-sustaining network infrastructure.

Call to Action:
Developers, join us in building the next generation of decentralized, secure, and private messaging services. Build on XMTP, become a node operator, or contribute to our open-source repos.

The Future of Messaging:

• Privacy by Default

• No Censorship

• Your Words, Your Ownership
