This is a beautiful art piece; it speaks more... than words could. The artist draws inspiration from the Kayayei (female head porters in Ghana), engraving their faces on each pan. Kayayei are mostly young girls and women from rural northern regions who migrate to cities like Accra and Kumasi to help carry heavy goods in markets for traders. 📍La Foundation for the Art 🇬🇭show more

🚨LATEST: INTERLINK UNVEILS NEW PROTOCOL FOR REAL BUSINESSES The... InterLink Foundation of InterLink Labs 👤 + 🌐 has recently announced its own 'Transaction-Backed Digital Assets Protocol'. The protocol is designed to... "connect real-world business activity with on-chain digital asset formation through automated market maker (AMM)-based liquidity infrastructure." Through the protocol, businesses will be able to effectively tokenize their economic activity and turn it into digital assets. "Rather than relying primarily on speculative trading dynamics, the Transaction-Backed Digital Assets Protocol enables digital assets to derive value from real transaction activity occurring within the network."show more

I successfully compressed the complete fruit fly brain, including... all 139,255 neurons and their connections into approximately 43 MB. Storing the entire connectome on Bitcoin will require around 110 separate Ordinal inscriptions of up to 350 KB each, making the process expensive. To help fund this process, we are considering creating a very limited collection of digital insects, although the exact details are still being defined. Through our neural engine, the fly’s brain could potentially control these other digital insects, influencing their movements, reactions, and behavior The goal is not merely to inscribe a brain as static data, but to make it functional,using the on-chain connectome as the foundation for an autonomous digital ecosystem living entirely on Bitcoin. This remains an experiment with much still to develop, but the vision is clear: preserve the brain, activate it, and create a world where it can continue to existshow more

SquiggleDAO has placed Squiggle #8434 at the MACBA Museum... in Argentina where it will be permanently displayed using the Squiggle Display Station! 🎉🎉🎉 MACBA Buenos Aires (Museo de Arte Contemporáneo de Buenos Aires) is a leading institution in Argentina’s contemporary art scene, widely recognized for its deep focus on geometric and abstract art. Its collection emphasizes form, color, structure, and systems, creating a strong dialogue between historical geometric movements and contemporary practices. This curatorial focus makes MACBA an important platform for works rooted in logic, repetition, and visual rhythm. The museum’s holdings include significant works by key figures in geometric and kinetic art, most notably Julio Le Parc, whose practice explores perception, movement, and viewer participation. Alongside Le Parc, MACBA’s collection reflects a broader lineage of Latin American and international geometric abstraction, reinforcing its role as a steward of systematic and perceptual art traditions. Within this context, the Chromie Squiggle is a natural and compelling fit. MACBA has recently added a Squiggle to their permanent collection and will become the first museum to permanently display a Squiggle, a major achievement given how rare permanent displays are compared to temporary exhibitions! The museum is also the first to present the work using the Display Station, creating an interactive experience that allows visitors to engage directly with generative digital art and marking an important milestone in its institutional adoption. The Display Station will also be permanently installed at the front of the museum in order to maximize exposure and usage. The glass storefront allows anyone walking by to experience the Squiggle, maximizing exposure to foot traffic.show more

Charles Hoskinson Sold ADA? Transactions allegedly linked to Cardano... (Cardano Community) founder Charles Hoskinson may trace back to roughly 1.5 billion $ADA moved during the 2021 bull market, according to new onchain analysis published by NFT creator Masato Alexander. The researcher argues the transactions can be linked through a shorter chain of wallet movements than previously identified. The Cardano Foundation said it has no direct insight into the transactions referenced in the analysis, according to Defiant. The analysis does not independently prove ownership or establish that the transfers were sales. Hoskinson has not publicly responded to the latest claims.show more

StablecoinX Inc. StablecoinX has announced an additional $530 million... capital raise as part of its $ENA accumulation strategy. To date, StablecoinX has raised a total of approximately $895M in PIPE financing, which is expected to result in a vehicle with over 3 billion ENA tokens on its balance sheet at closing. This enhanced scale enables greater access to additional institutional channels, broader investor and third-party coverage, and the capacity to hire top tier leadership. As with the initial PIPE raise, the cash raised via the PIPE will be used by StablecoinX to acquire tokens from a subsidiary of the Ethena Foundation. The Ethena Foundation subsidiary will initiate an approximately $310 million buyback program over the next 6-8 weeks via third party market makers, reinforcing the alignment between the Foundation and StablecoinX shareholders. The expected deployment rate of purchases is outlined in the section below this tweet, and is incremental to the buyback program from the initial PIPE financing transaction which has now been completed. At current prices, the planned buyback program of this second PIPE transaction combined with the liquid ENA contributed to the PIPE by third party investors represents roughly 13% of circulating supply. This is in addition to the initial PIPE financing which resulted in the acquisition of approximately 7.3% of circulating token supply over the last 6 weeks. Importantly, as with the initial PIPE raise, the Ethena Foundation has the right to veto any sales of $ENA by StableCoinX at its sole discretion. Once again, to the extent StablecoinX subsequently raises capital with the intent of purchasing additional locked ENA from the Ethena Foundation or its affiliates, cash proceeds from those token sales are planned to be used to purchase spot $ENA. StablecoinX's treasury strategy is a deliberate, multi‑year capital allocation strategy that will enables StablecoinX to capture the enormous value of the secular surge in demand for digital dollars while compounding ENA per share to the benefit of shareholders.show more
