“One of the most complicated hostage rescue missions in history.” The operation to rescue the hostages from Nusayrat was named "Summer Seeds" and is defined by the IDF as one of the most complex ever for hostage rescue. The hostages were held in a heavily civilian populated area, above ground, in buildings of 3-4 stories. The forces stormed the two separate targets where the hostages were held, with Noa held on the first floor and Andrey, Shlomi, and Almog on the third floor of another building, hundreds of meters apart. Hamas moved the four hostages from apartment to apartment, and the concern was that if the forces only stormed one building, the terrorists would escape with the hostages in the second building. The Air Force gathered intelligence from the air in the last few days, and the IDF and Shin Bet created conditions to reach the targets without the terrorists shooting the hostages first, which was key to the operation's success. The models built by the Yamam (Israel's counter-terrorism unit) reminded senior military officials of the models established for the Entebbe operation, with buildings, streets, and small areas for practice. The main problem was in the apartment where Andrey, Almog, and Shlomi were held, and where Yamam fighter Arnon Zamora was killed. The rescue took place under heavy fire, and during the disengagement, dozens of terrorists with RPGs and machine guns ran through the alleys towards the targets. As a result, uninvolved Gazan civilians were also killed in the dense fire exchange. The military said, "The difference between success and failure in such an operation is a hair's breadth, and we relied on exceptional technology from the Intelligence and Shin Bet. Without ground activity and maneuvering in the Gazan area, it would not have been possible to succeed in such operations." The IDF also noted that the rescue was made possible by Commander Zamora's heroism. "Shin Bet and Intelligence Directorate fighters entered the lion's den in the refugee camp and dismantled houses in areas where we hadn't maneuvered," they said. "This is bravery on the level of Judah Maccabee. The operation was planned for weeks with drills, rescue plans, and fires executed, alongside scenarios of cases and responses." The forces simultaneously broke into the two houses with special weapons developed for the operation. Immediately after extracting the hostages, the forces began to withdraw while fighting dozens of terrorists, but a vehicle with the three hostages got stuck and came under heavy fire. Division 98 forces jumped in to assist in the vehicle rescue battle, and rescue helicopters entered deep into the strip in daylight. Three brigades participated in the rescue battle, during which Zamora was also evacuated to the hospital: Brigade 7, Paratroopers, and Kfir with Flotilla 13, along with other special forces. "The fire plan that was executed was focused but extremely powerful," the IDF added. "The cooperation with Shin Bet and Yamam rose to several levels into a single operational system, under the direction of the Shin Bet chief and the Chief of Staff. Four keys to the operation: deception, surprise, determination, and power." To maintain the secrecy of the operation, thousands of soldiers in the brigades that participated in the rescue were unaware of the nature of the operation before it happened to preserve the element of surprise. Only a handful of commanders were exposed to the operation yesterday, at various levels. These forces were positioned at the correct launch points without revealing the secret. During the operation, soldiers were also lightly injured, mainly from shrapnel.

ADAPTING. INNOVATING. EXCELLING — KAMENG HIMALAYAS @ 16,000 FT Operations in the unforgiving expanse of the Kameng Himalayas, where at 16000 feet, sheer baren cliffs, unpredictable weather, and extreme altitude routinely sever vital supply lines, #GajrajCorps has delivered an innovative milestone in high-altitude logistics solution. In an environment where forward posts are often cut off for days under the snow and traditional means of transport struggle against the rugged terrain, ensuring timely delivery of essential stores has long been a formidable challenge. Rising to this operational necessity, the Gajraj Corps has successfully conceptualised, engineered, and deployed an indigenous High Altitude Mono Rail System, fully operational, validated, and already transforming logistics at 16,000 ft. This innovative solution—capable of transporting 300+ kg of load in a single run- is proving to be a lifeline to remote posts that have no alternative means of communication or supply links. It enables reliable movement of mission-critical stores, ammunition, rations, fuel, engineering equipment, and other heavy or awkward loads that are otherwise difficult to ferry across steep gradients and unstable surfaces. This transportation facility is fully operation worthy to be used day or night, with or without escort, during hail or storm irrespective of the weather conditions Beyond logistics, the system has also emerged as a potential enabler for rapid casualty evacuation, offering a safe and efficient means to move injured personnel across inhospitable stretches where helicopters may not always operate and foot evacuation is slow and risky. A testament to the ingenuity, adaptability, and relentless spirit of #GajrajCorps, this in-house innovation ensures enhanced operational readiness, strengthens sustainability in isolated high-altitude posts, and showcases the Army’s commitment to solving complex challenges with practical, mission-focused solutions.

Major: The downing of the Israeli Heron TP MALE UAV over the Lebanese Beqaa might be the most significant resistance operation in recent months, after introducing fpv explosive drones. Being able to hit and destroy one of Israel's primary strategic intelligence platforms, an asset relied upon for surveillance, target acquisition, and maintaining situational awareness deep across the battlefield, and updating strategic bank of targets. Hezbollah today sent a clear message: Israeli aerial activity is not immune from challenge, and even some of its most advanced intelligence assets remain vulnerable. In the last weeks, Hezbollah was not able to successfully hit any Hermes 450 despite firing more than 10 ManPADS missiles in separate operations. This resulted in Israeli drone activity increasing exponentially, with some days reaching 85 drone missile fired in 24 hours, and 10 to 12 killer and surveillance drones circling at the same time. Beyond the material loss, the operation represents a direct strike against the enemy's intelligence-gathering capabilities. In today's war, blinding the enemy can be more valuable as damaging its firepower. The fall of the Israeli "sky Queen" definitely was done by a longer range air defense missile, not mithaq 1 or 2. New weapons are entering service during war is a very good sign of control and long endurance and preparation. May God humiliate the Israelis and their supporters everywhere.

The Chinese are flying 4 sixth-generation prototypes, but what does that mean? While the West keeps debating wars that seem never-ending, huh, China is flying low – or rather, high! – improving their 6th generation fighter prototypes, like the J-36/J-50, with total focus on advanced integration. This gives a huge strategic advantage, with emphasis on long-range missiles and multiple guidance to dominate global scenarios. China already has about 4 6th generation prototypes and plans to reach 8, selecting the most adapted one. All this under the General Concept: Indestructible Flying Brain: 6th generation fighters go way beyond just a slightly improved stealth; they are central platforms that command a global war web via AI, drones, and varied weapons, making previous fighters obsolete in connectivity and limiting them to very local operations. This omnipresence redefines air superiority, with the fighter surviving as a resilient node in the first hours of conflicts and being able to operate with speed. Kill Web: The Global War Web: The fighter acts as the central node of a real-time network, connecting submarines, satellites, ships, drones, and troops worldwide. It allows omnipresence, receiving data from a destroyer thousands of km away and attacking as if it were right nearby, with AI assisting the pilot in analysis and target acquisition. That's why the Chinese focus on missiles with ranges of thousands of km, with multiple guidance, turning the 6th generation pilot into a tactical manager very different from today's. Being a 6th generation fighter pilot is going to demand a lot. Command of Drone Swarms (CCA/Loyal Wingman) The fighter controls 6-20 drones simultaneously for reconnaissance, jamming, or suicide attacks. It transforms the pilot (or AI) into a "maestro" of a robotic orchestra, or quarterback of Collaborative Combat Aircraft (CCAs), which carry extra weapons, expanding offensive power without exposing the main fighter. Like, a controlled symphony of destruction! Superior Multi-Spectral Stealth (Stealth++) Not limited to radar, it covers infrared, acoustic, visual, and electromagnetic. It uses advanced materials, tailless designs, and minimal thermal signature to penetrate dense A2/AD defenses, making it extremely hard to detect and essential for operations in contested environments. Extreme Range, Autonomy, and New Generation Weapons Combat radius of 1,800-2,500 km without refueling, with sustained supercruise (Mach 1.5-2.0) without afterburner, thanks to adaptive cycle engines and huge internal tanks. There's talk of including lasers, but so far, what's really there are internal hypersonic missiles and 2-3x greater armament capacity than the F-35, all while maintaining total stealth. Artificial Intelligence, Integrated Sensors, Resilience, and Open Architecture AI as co-pilot or main, processing data in real time and making tactical decisions to reduce human load; optionally manned mode: piloted, remote, or autonomous flight; virtual cockpit via helmet visor. Multifunctional sensors combine radar, electronic warfare, communications, and non-kinetic effects, with total data fusion transforming the fighter into a flying data center. Network resistant to jamming and GPS loss via quantum-resistant communications, mesh networks, and inertial/computer vision navigation. Modular architecture allows quick upgrades (90% by software), avoiding high costs like in the F-35; in "Decision Centric Warfare," AI decides in milliseconds, with the human as an optional bottleneck, including cyber warfare and active defense. In another article, I'll talk about what I think of this in terms of costs and demand and if such an investment is really worth it.

🚨 THE RACE TO 6G JUST ACCELERATED. Northrop Grumman has developed a W-band GaN chip operating at up to 110 GHz and took it from concept to market-ready hardware in less than six months. The new gallium nitride chip operates in the W-band (75–110 GHz), a frequency range that delivers massive bandwidth, extremely high data rates, and much lower latency than current systems. What makes this impressive is the speed: the chip went from concept to market-ready hardware in less than six months through a U.S. government-backed microelectronics program. That’s unusually fast for advanced defense-grade semiconductors. The chip acts as a high-power signal amplifier that can strengthen wireless links while shrinking the size and power consumption of the hardware. It’s designed for military radar, secure satellite communications, and the coming wave of 6G networks. Why this matters: • W-band offers far more spectrum than current 5G bands, enabling much faster data transmission and higher-resolution sensing • Gallium nitride can handle significantly higher power and frequencies than silicon, making it ideal for these demanding applications • The rapid development cycle shows how public-private collaboration can accelerate critical semiconductor technologies • The same tech that strengthens military radar and satellite links will directly feed into future commercial 6G infrastructure The deeper implication: We’re watching the foundation of next-generation wireless and sensing systems being laid in real time. High-frequency GaN chips like this won’t just improve existing radar and satellite systems they’re likely to become core building blocks for 6G, autonomous systems, and advanced defense platforms. The fact that this moved from lab to market in under six months suggests the pace of high-frequency electronics is accelerating dramatically. The future of wireless isn’t just faster. It’s operating at frequencies most people have never heard of and it’s being built right now. How soon do you think W-band and GaN technology will start appearing in everyday 6G devices? Follow for more frontier semiconductors, defense tech, and next-generation wireless systems.

TESLA SEMI: THE FUTURE OF TRUCKING IS ELECTRIC, EFFICIENT & AUTONOMOUS The Tesla Semi isn’t just another truck—it’s a complete redefinition of long-haul trucking. With production ramping up and deliveries accelerating, it’s already proving why electric Class 8 semis will dominate the industry. Why the Tesla Semi is critically important: •Unmatched efficiency & cost savings ~1.7 kWh/mile energy consumption (real-world data from PepsiCo & early fleets) — far lower than diesel equivalents. Operating costs drop dramatically with electricity vs. diesel, plus massive reductions in maintenance (no oil changes, fewer brake replacements thanks to regenerative braking). •Insane performance 0–60 mph in ~20 seconds fully loaded (500-mile range version), 0–60 in under 10 seconds in lighter configs. Instant torque makes hills and merging effortless—safer and faster than diesel trucks. •500+ mile range on a single charge Real-world highway range exceeds 500 miles even with heavy loads, eliminating most range anxiety for long-haul routes. Megachargers add hundreds of miles in ~30 minutes. •Autonomy-ready platform Built on Tesla’s Full Self-Driving hardware and software stack. Future unsupervised FSD will eliminate driver fatigue, reduce accidents (94% of which involve human error), and enable 24/7 operation—transforming driver economics and safety. •Environmental & regulatory edge Zero tailpipe emissions, helping fleets meet tightening emissions standards (California, EU, etc.). Lower noise pollution for urban deliveries and night operations. •Fleet economics revolution Lower TCO (total cost of ownership) than diesel trucks over the vehicle life. When combined with solar + Megapack charging depots, operating costs approach near-zero marginal energy cost. The Tesla Semi isn’t competing in trucking—it’s redefining the entire category. From PepsiCo’s early fleet to upcoming high-volume production, it’s the truck that makes electric long-haul not just possible, but inevitable 🚛⚡

🚨 AMERICA JUST BUILT THE WORLD’S MOST POWERFUL METAL 3D PRINTER AND IT’S ABOUT TO MASS-PRODUCE ROCKETS AND MISSILES. Divergent Technologies has unveiled the Monolith One, a giant industrial metal printer standing over 8 meters tall and armed with 12 high-powered lasers delivering a combined 24 kilowatts of energy. Unlike typical 3D printers used for prototypes, this machine is built for serious, high-volume production. It can print large, complex aerospace and defense parts in aluminum, titanium, steel, and nickel alloys and it roughly doubles the output of current systems. Why this matters: • Divergent plans to install 64 more of these machines in a massive new 430,000 sq ft factory in Long Beach, California • Once running, the facility aims to produce tens of thousands of munition airframes per year plus hundreds of thousands of critical metal components • It slashes manufacturing time from months down to weeks or even days • The company already supplies major players like Lockheed Martin and RTX The deeper implication: This isn’t just another 3D printer. It represents a shift toward software-defined, on-demand manufacturing at industrial scale for mission-critical hardware. As defense and aerospace demand skyrockets, traditional supply chains are too slow. Systems like Monolith One could become a cornerstone of faster, more resilient domestic production especially for complex structures that are difficult or impossible to make conventionally. We’re watching the industrialization of additive manufacturing in real time. How do you think large-scale 3D printing will change aerospace and defense manufacturing over the next decade?

I replaced our Datadog bill with a single binary and cut infrastructure costs by 98% overnight. It’s called OpenObserve. Logs, metrics, traces, and frontend monitoring in one tool, self-hosted, and it’s built specifically to stop the bill that grows every time you add a host, a user, or a custom metric. → One binary, running in under 2 minutes. No cluster, no separate components for logs vs metrics vs traces → Built in Rust on the DataFusion query engine, so it stays fast even at petabyte scale → Uses Parquet columnar storage on S3-compatible object storage instead of a proprietary format, which is where the real cost savings come from → Query with SQL or PromQL instead of a vendor’s proprietary syntax, so your team isn’t learning a new query language just to read a dashboard → Full OpenTelemetry compatibility, no proprietary agents required to get your existing instrumentation talking to it → Community dashboard library on GitHub for Kubernetes, Docker, Postgres, AWS, and LLM observability, ready to drop in instead of building from scratch In OpenObserve’s own published benchmark, the same 16-service workload cost $174/day on Datadog and $3/day self-hosted, a 98% cut, before even touching per-host or per-seat fees. 18,000+ GitHub stars. Single binary. Self-hosted, no per-host or per-user tax.

🚨 THE PENTAGON JUST REVEALED ITS DEADLIEST WEAPON. THE MIDDLE EAST IS ABOUT TO BOIL OVER. 🚨 The U.S. Navy almost never reveals the location of its Ohio-class nuclear submarines. They are silent, untraceable doomsday machines built to project overwhelming power from the shadows. So when the Pentagon openly announces one just rolled into Gibraltar on its way to the Middle East, it isn’t a press release. It’s a direct threat. The ceasefire with Iran is officially on "massive life support" (Trump's words—he just called Tehran's latest peace offer "garbage"). Now, we are watching a terrifying underwater standoff brew in the world's most critical oil choke point. Iran’s surface navy was completely gutted by US-Israeli strikes last month. They know they can't survive a traditional naval war with the US. So, they are going full guerilla. Tehran just flooded the Strait of Hormuz with at least 16 "Ghadir-class" midget submarines. These aren't massive nuclear leviathans. They are tiny, cheap, and built for one thing: ambush. • Operated by crews of less than 10. • Packed with heavy torpedoes and Chinese-designed C-704 anti-ship cruise missiles. But the scariest part is their tactic: "Seabed-resting." Because the Persian Gulf is shallow and noisy, these mini-subs literally sink to the ocean floor, power down, and sit dead-silent in the mud. They just wait for a multi-billion dollar American destroyer to sail overhead, ready to pull the trigger. This is the ultimate asymmetric warfare. And the timing is absolutely deliberate. Trump is about to sit down with Xi Jinping. Iran is using Chinese-designed weapons to hold global oil shipping hostage right before the two superpowers meet in Beijing. It’s the ultimate David vs. Goliath setup, but with apocalyptic stakes: A $3 billion American doomsday machine vs. a swarm of trigger-ready mini-subs hiding in the dirt. If the US takes the bait and someone pulls a trigger in Hormuz, watch what happens to the global markets tomorrow.

🚨 ITALY IS ABOUT TO GENERATE ELECTRICITY FROM A FULL-SCALE NUCLEAR REACTOR THAT HAS ZERO NUCLEAR FUEL INSIDE IT. At the ENEA Brasimone research center, Newcleo has installed a 155-ton reactor vessel filled with molten lead. Instead of uranium, it uses electric heaters to simulate the heat from fission. The lead will circulate, transfer heat to a steam generator, and spin a real turbine to produce electricity. This is not a small lab experiment. The vessel is nearly the same size as the commercial 200 MW lead-cooled reactor Newcleo eventually wants to sell. Why this matters: • It’s one of the most complete non-nuclear demonstrations of a next-generation reactor ever attempted • By proving the molten lead cooling system, heat exchangers, and power conversion loop work at scale before introducing nuclear fuel, Newcleo is trying to de-risk the hardest and most expensive parts of advanced nuclear development • Lead-cooled fast reactors can operate at atmospheric pressure with high thermal margins and natural circulation decay heat removal • The company has ambitious plans, including partnerships in the US (with Oklo) to use surplus weapons plutonium as fuel The deeper implication: Traditional nuclear development is extremely slow and expensive because you have to deal with radiation, fuel, and regulatory scrutiny from day one. Newcleo’s approach flips this: prove the entire non-nuclear “machine” works first at near-commercial scale, then add the nuclear part later. If successful, this could meaningfully shorten development timelines and reduce technical risk for lead-cooled reactors. It’s still early the real fueled reactor isn’t expected until the early 2030s but this is one of the more serious and well-funded attempts to make a new type of advanced nuclear a commercial reality. How important do you think non-nuclear full-scale testing like this will be for accelerating advanced reactor deployment?

What if any preparations have you seen Iran make ahead of the war? Can you discuss It’s missile capabilities? Any intelligence capabilities? Any surprises it might happen in store? When the 12-day war ended, I estimated that Iran would need about six months to recover, including its nuclear program. Contrary to popular belief, Iran did not lose its entire long-range or medium-range air defense network; while some launchers were damaged, the primary targets of the Israeli strikes were the radar systems. Once the radars were neutralized, Iran successfully hid the bulk of its remaining batteries, leaving much of its arsenal intact. In contrast, short-range systems like the Tor-M1 and domestic variants were heavily engaged against cruise missiles, often being lost or damaged only after their ammunition was completely exhausted. Since then, Iran has worked to rebuild its destroyed radar network and, above all, to implement a genuine counterintelligence doctrine. The Mossad operations against Iranian radars and air defense systems have shaped new perimeter defense and counterintelligence doctrines not only in Iran but in other countries as well. If we look at the quantity of weapons and the organization of armed groups during Iran’s most recent protests, I would say the problem of foreign intelligence operations inside the country remains severe. This seriously threatens much of Iran’s capabilities, and I foresee a wave of sabotage operations as a new war draws closer. Iran has begun receiving collaboration from China across multiple areas,from satellites to internal counterintelligence, but it may still take some time for this to produce tangible results. During the last years, the Mossad relied heavily on cell phones, using SMS for recruitment and accessing device GPS for target location. Iran has since focused intensely on preventing any repetition of this, and on this specific issue, the Chinese appear to have provided support. Although foreign intelligence services have operated extensively inside Iran, the scale of any armed opposition groups is negligible compared to the Iranian armed forces, which could still draw on allied paramilitaries and militias in neighboring countries, including the Houthis. Iran has become a missile power with a stockpile far larger than Western estimates suggest. As early as 1998, Iran was already producing missiles with ranges exceeding 1,000 km, and it has continued doing so ever since, developing 12 to 15 different models in that range - meaning all are capable of reaching Israel. That is nearly 30 years of continuous missile production, resulting in a stockpile of several thousands. Another area where Iran has emerged as a global power is drones, including underwater ones. Iran’s UUVs have evolved rapidly into mass-produced models with integrated AI, and I believe they hold some major surprises in reserve. A key point today is that the AN/TPY-2 radars, which played a critical role in tracking Iranian missiles, would be among the first targets to be engaged. These high-powered X-band radars are the backbone of regional missile defense, providing essential data to THAAD and Patriot batteries. However, because they are large, stationary, and emit high-energy signals, they are highly vulnerable to a first-strike or saturation attack, which would effectively 'blind' the entire defensive network. Obviously, a defense budget of nearly one trillion dollars cannot be compared to Iran’s, but the real question is whether the cost and effort are worth the potential casualties. Even without Israel, the Americans maintain an immense advantage in aerial operations over Iran; however, as I have stated before, this superiority does not translate to the maritime theater.

Today, we're announcing a $60M Series B led by Battery Ventures, bringing our total funding to $85M in just under a year. Also joining the round are founders and operators who’ve built generational companies of the last two decades – tobi lutke (CEO, Shopify), arash ferdowsi (Dropbox), Claire Hughes Johnson (Stripe), and more. The round came together in 6 days. Here's why. Every major category in enterprise software is seeing multiple AI-native challengers. CRM, ERP, ITSM – all being rebuilt from scratch by a new generation of companies applying AI to solve persistent problems we couldn’t before. Employee Management (also known as HCM) is the exception. It’s the last frontier, and we believe the most important one. The operating layer to manage people, run payroll, benefits, compliance, and IT, for every company in the world, is still built on architecture that predates AI by decades. This fundraise is the story of how Warp is changing that. The average Warp customer is growing 5x faster than their peers, with 1/10th of the HR and admin overhead. We’re seeing a massive shift happening in how the best companies run their people operations. From the fastest-growing AI-startups to massive public companies, the winning teams are running lean: HR, finance, and ops generalists who automate as much as possible, and use their time instead for strategic work that AI can’t automate. Warp is the platform of choice for ambitious companies operating at this new pace. Legacy HCMs help humans track the work. Warp uses AI to proactively complete the work. Workday was built for the last era. We're building for the next one. And it’s working. We've – - Doubled ARR in Q1 - On track to $2B+ payroll volume this year - Signed enterprise customers with thousands of employees - Launched entire product lines back-to-back: Warp benefits brokerage and Warp Fabric (our AI-native IT automation suite built in-house). A few thank-yous: 1. Our customers, the fastest-growing companies in the world, who trust us with their most critical systems. We wouldn't be here without you. 2. Our team - 50+ people in NYC who've built this platform, taken on the hardest problems in business-critical software. We're just getting started. 3. Our investors doubling down in this round, and some of our earliest believers – Sound Ventures (ashton kutcher, Effie Epstein), Derek Grant, (Arnav Sahu), Harj Taggar at Y Combinator, Balaji, Kevin Hartz, Kyle Vogt, Amjad Masad, HOF Capital (Fady Yacoub), colinevans (OpenAI) We're here to arm ambitious American companies with Workday-grade power, but with the usability and delight of an Apple product. With this new funding, we plan to fund deeper AI agents, tax and compliance infrastructure, expand our product suite, and support even closely our fast-growing customers. Come join us.

We’re seeing a massive shift happening in how the best companies run their people operations. From the fastest-growing AI-startups to massive public companies, the winning teams are running lean: HR, finance, and ops generalists who automate as much as possible, and use their time instead for strategic work that AI can’t automate. Warp is the platform of choice for ambitious companies operating at this new pace. Legacy HCMs help humans track the work. Warp uses AI to proactively complete the work. Workday was built for the last era. We're building for the next one. And it’s working. We've – - Doubled ARR in Q1 - On track to $2B+ payroll volume this year - Signed enterprise customers with thousands of employees - Launched entire product lines back-to-back: Warp benefits brokerage and Warp Fabric (our AI-native IT automation suite built in-house). A few thank-yous: 1. Our customers, the fastest-growing companies in the world, who trust us with their most critical systems. We wouldn't be here without you. 2. Our team - 50+ people in NYC who've built this platform, taken on the hardest problems in business-critical software. We're just getting started. 3. Our investors doubling down in this round, and some of our earliest believers – Sound Ventures (ashton kutcher, Effie Epstein), Derek Grant, (Arnav Sahu), Harj Taggar at Y Combinator, Balaji, Kevin Hartz, Kyle Vogt, Amjad Masad, HOF Capital (Fady Yacoub), colinevans (OpenAI) We're here to arm ambitious American companies with Workday-grade power, but with the usability and delight of an Apple product. With this new funding, we plan to fund deeper AI agents, tax and compliance infrastructure, expand our product suite, and support even closely our fast-growing customers. Come join us.

Ahead of Hadron Energy beginning trading on Nasdaq under the ticker $HDRN on May 26th, we wanted to share a glimpse of Hadron’s vision building the future of microreactors. Hadron Energy is developing the Halo Micro Modular Reactor (MMR), a compact, factory-built light-water reactor designed to deliver reliable, carbon-free power for AI data centers, industrial sites, remote communities, military applications, and critical infrastructure. Each Hadron MMR is designed to generate 10 MWe of reliable power and is transportable by truck or rail to support flexible deployment where power is needed most. By generating power directly on-site, Hadron’s microreactors may reduce reliance on extensive transmission and distribution infrastructure. Multiple units can be deployed in a modular format to meet growing demand, with a targeted fuel-cycle of 10 years and an intended 50-year useful life. Hadron’s microreactors leverage proven light-water technology which powers ~90% of the global nuclear power fleet today. The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is most familiar with light-water designs, they have ~27,000 cumulative reactor years of operational history, and light-water avoids the risks associated with novel fuels or coolants. Hadron’s microreactors are designed with inherent and passive safety features and are installed below grade to maximize protection of the public and the environment. Hadron uses Low Enriched Uranium Plus (LEU+), enriched to approximately 8% U-235. This fuel builds on the same proven uranium fuel used in today’s commercial reactors while enabling longer operating cycles and efficient power output for microreactor applications through slightly higher enrichment. Because LEU+ remains within the existing regulatory framework, may support a more familiar licensing pathway relative to certain advanced reactor technologies. Most importantly, LEU+ leverages existing portions of the domestic light-water reactor fuel supply chain, which we believe may reduce fuel supply constraints relative to certain advanced reactor approaches dependent on HALEU or TRISO fuel. Our approach focuses on regulatory efficiency and standardized deployment. In October 2025, the NRC accepted Hadron’s Quality Assurance Program Description (QAPD) Topical Report for review, an important step in establishing the company’s regulatory foundation. Hadron maintains active engagement with the NRC through a dual-track pathway, pursuing both Manufacturing and Combined Licenses, while monitoring evolving NRC initiatives intended to support standardized deployment and serial manufacturing approaches for advanced reactors. Hadron’s leadership team brings decades of experience across nuclear plant operations, NRC licensing, reactor engineering, fuel design, and quality assurance, supported by engineers focused on moving from design through deployment efficiently. As electricity demand continues to accelerate globally, particularly across AI infrastructure and industrial applications, Hadron is targeting a growing market expected to exceed $7 billion by 2030, according to Grand View Research. We believe light-water reactors continuing to produce reliable, 24/7 power, will play a critical role in the future of energy and national security. Please refer to Hadron Energy’s public SEC filings for additional information.

Monthly WINR Protocol Development Update: To begin with, the WINR Protocol has distributed $900,000 to token holders, generated more than $500,000 in pure profit for liquidity providers on WLP, acquired more than 5,000 users, and has almost 9% of the supply burned. In the upcoming months, the WINR Protocol, which has been in production for years, will introduce a range of new products and deployments. These developments will represent the practical and technical evolution to V2 of the protocol. Here are the latest updates and further details as they progress: Progress on WINR Bonanza, Casino Hold'em, and Blackjack is nearing completion. These games are in the final stages of testing. Additional games, including a new type of crash game, have been finalized and are set to debut with the JustBet v2 launch. Take a look at the gameplay videos for a preview. These games achieve the long-term goal of providing a full-suite WINR Game Engine SDK, which can be used to build games with complex logic on-chain with modular smart contract infrastructure. For example, any grid slot game that dominates the iGaming industry could easily be developed on-chain using the WINR Bonanza SDK. - Permissionless Frontend Operator SDK Dashboard Release: March is poised to be a milestone month with the launch of the Frontend Operator SDK dashboards. These dashboards will enable any WINR Labs game to be seamlessly deployed on frontends, marking a significant advancement in protocol accessibility and integration for future games developed by independent iGaming developers. The frontend operator can deploy any game they choose through a few simple steps while utilizing 10,000 WINR per game via the WINR Game Factory smart contract. Each operator is assigned a unique smart contract address(es) for every game they deploy, allowing their revenue to be tracked independently. The deployment process includes instructions on integrating the game as a package into the operator's frontend. In subsequent phases, the games will transition through WINR Chain, streamlining user onboarding steps like wallet connection and token bridging to Arbitrum. This abstraction will make it easy for any web2/web3 platform on any chain to seamlessly integrate WINR-based games with just a few clicks. The new budget system changes how the revenue is calculated on the protocol and will see daylight with frontend operator, Solana, and Fantom deployments. This model was first tested with a lightweight version on and gave a lot of actionable feedback. Shifting from the existing bribe model, which in practice distributes almost half of the edge of the games in volume to WINR holders, the brand-new budget system checks the profitability of WLP. It distributes a larger part of the profit to game providers, frontend operators, and, most importantly, WINR holders. Any time a game's budget is in profit, a part of every loss is distributed to stakeholders. Here is an example: 1. The WINR Bonanza Game has a 10,000 budget for a frontend operator. 2. Let's assume the bet amount was $50, and Bonanza paid back $10 on that spin. That leaves $40 of pure profit. 3. This is distributed amongst 50% to WLP, 20% to frontend operators, 20% to WINR holders, and 10% to game providers. 4. To achieve this, V2 of WINR Liquidity Engine (WLP) will have a buffer for purchasing and selling, working in epochs to determine the above distribution and math. - Solana Deployment and Expansions: Solana audits are in their final phase, and frontend tests are ongoing. Solana launch will be alongside the V2 launch of @JustBetOfficial, with a chain switch available on the top bar. The VRF system WINR developed already is seeing requests from builders around the Solana ecosystem, and this will over time add an extra layer of income to the protocol. Solana's bankroll, at first, will be a lighter version of WLP but will inherit the above-mentioned budgeting system to generate income immediately upon launch. - Fantom Deployment and Expansions: Fantom's upcoming Sonic upgrade, with its 200ms finality and fast block production is a perfect chain for WINR Protocol to expand. Through the partnership with WINR Protocol will tap into a brand new user base on Fantom. The bankroll on Fantom will consist of FTM and stables. The launch is planned for late March or early April. This expansion aims to open up new markets and collaborations with fresh teams. which operates independently, will integrate a broad spectrum of WINR technologies, including WINR Account Abstraction, WINR VRF, and WINR games, marking a pivotal step in WINR Protocol’s journey of horizontal expansion. - XAI VRF Deployment Progress Update: The WINR Account Abstraction Wallet and WINR Verifiable Random Function (VRF) deployment on the XAI 🎮⛓️ is well underway, with the majority of the work completed. This step forward showcases WINR's expansion beyond gambling and trading, highlighting the protocol's adaptability and commitment to broadening decentralized services. The process to automize and permissionlessly let game developers start using WINR VRF by paying (and burning) fees in WINR will launch alongside WINR VRF deployment on XAI and expand to further chains to help DApp builders with the tooling they need. This process will work very similarly to frontend operators, where DApp builders will be able to easily deploy their VRF contract, pay the WINR fees, and enjoy the fastest random number generation transaction, as showcased on @JustBetOfficial for some time. - JustBet v2 Development Update: Set to launch in March, the last testing phase with long-time community members of JustBet V2 is underway. Boasting a completely refreshed look, JustBet v2 aims to captivate more users with its modern features, a significant upgrade from the classic JustBet designed in 2019. Expect dynamic animations and a user experience that rivals traditional web2 casinos, setting a new standard for online gambling platforms and serving once again as proof of concept for all the new WINR features and infrastructure set to launch over the coming months. As always, WINR Labs simultaneously develops protocol infrastructure and platform to best address the needs of one and only goal: horizontal expansion. Easter eggs: Upcoming Gitbook update with all the technical information of WINR V2. CEX listing. Detailed product pages on WINR web. Pyth competitions. WIP-4 and WIP-5 are ready to deploy. And an 🪂
