@HyperliquidX today is a perfect example of what makes a DEX truly exceptional. They owned the exchange and distribution of their token, ensuring that every user felt like a winner. Those moments of shared success create lasting loyalty and unforgettable experiences.🫡
Huge thanks to the Hyperliquid team for setting a new standard and delivering something truly priceless
Bravo @cz_binance & @binance

I was the first Based Advocate
My thoughts along with much love and gratitude to everyone who was part of it
I’ve been getting a lot of messages and mentions about the Based Advocate program. While I’m no longer at Base, I wanted to recognize the people behind it who I had the pleasure of working with
The program started three years ago to recognize helpful, impactful community members who showed up every day in Discord. We later expanded to Reddit, growing to around 100 advocates worldwide, representing many different languages and backgrounds
Together, they helped grow and support a Discord community of ~600k and a Reddit community of ~100k
Many participated in our decentralized support and ticketing system, collectively resolving hundreds, sometimes thousands, of tickets each week. Many were volunteers. Beyond support, they were in the channels every day, answering questions, welcoming people, and keeping conversations going
I’m sad to see the program sunset. Many of these contributors have been with Base for years, dedicating hours every week because they wanted to be part of something and help it grow. They deserve recognition for the time and care they put into this community
If any company or project is looking for moderators or community contributors, please reach out. I’d be happy to connect you with some great people 💙
After three years of my journey with @base as an Advocate has come to an end. First of all, a big thank you to @CryptoStatuette , @svmvn They supported me, taught me so much, and gave me the opportunity to be part of an amazing ecosystem and team. Together we helped build a valuable community and a strong support system for Base. I’ll never forget you 💙It was a pleasure getting to know all the advocates and building meaningful friendships along the way. thank you to @base and @jessepollak for this opportunity ! I wish all the best for base in the future 💙

because this is happening, it’s really important to revoke your approvals on Blur
Blur has upgradable contracts
avoid future security issues
Last month, the contracts powering Magic Eden were exploited to the tune of millions of dollars. I was lucky enough to be in a position to rescue a good portion of that, but it highlighted the danger of leaving approvals open as adversaries get access to better and better tools for finding holes in contract logic.
Today, Blur announced that they will be deprecating their frontend.
I've investigated Blur and found no exploits within the current contracts. However, the Blur contracts are upgradable, meaning that they could turn malicious at any time.
They currently have eight figures worth of NFTs approved to them. The safety of those NFTs effectively hinges on the opssec of the Blur team, which appears to be disbanding at this time.
If you have open approvals to Blur, I recommend you remove them immediately. Use revoke.cash or similar to ensure that you are protected in case of a contract exploit or later upgrade.
Don't wait. The time is now.
wow 😂
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.
Wtf 😳
