Strong Q1 numbers from the @AlgoFoundation 👏 Transaction volume, stablecoin market cap, and active users all trending up, while community stake hits a new ATH at 80.5%. Real progress happening under the hood. Keep building! 🚀 #Algo

“Algorand is now fully supported in x402. This matters because x402 is focused on a simple but important idea: Payments should become a native function of the internet. AI agents need to pay for services. Applications need to charge programmatically. APIs need direct $” $ALGO

Quantum computing could become one of the biggest threats crypto has ever faced. Today at 4:30pm UK time, we sit down with three key @algodevs to discuss what’s at risk and how @Algorand is preparing for a post-quantum future.

🚀New Pera Explorer Feature: We now track xChain Accounts🔍

The entire global economy will run on Algorand.

Algorand Q1 2026 Transparency Report. The numbers show a network that is not standing still. Transaction volume increased by 3.4% quarter-over-quarter, surpassing 3.51 billion total transactions. That is important because real infrastructure is measured by usage. Not by slogans. @Algorand also reported progress on decentralization and network security. Community stake now represents 80.5%, while the Algorand Foundation stake stands at 19.5%. That matters because a stronger community stake means the network becomes less dependent on the Foundation over time. Stablecoin activity also moved higher. Stablecoin market cap on Algorand reached $64.43 million, up 8.6% quarter-over-quarter. This is especially relevant as stablecoins become one of the most important use cases in crypto. Payments, settlement, remittances, DeFi and agentic commerce all need reliable stablecoin rails. @AlgoFoundation is positioning itself for exactly that. Pera Wallet monthly active users also increased by 10% quarter-over-quarter. That is a useful signal because ecosystem growth is not only about transactions. It is also about users, wallets and access. Validator rewards continued as well, with 20 million ALGO distributed in Q1. This supports network participation and gives validators an economic reason to secure the chain. The key takeaway from Q1 is simple: Algorand is growing across multiple layers. Transactions. Stablecoins. Wallet activity. Community stake. Validator incentives. Not one isolated metric. A broader infrastructure picture. For a network focused on payments, tokenization and real-world applications, these are the numbers that matter. Quiet growth. Real usage. And a stronger foundation for what comes next.

A $USDC airdrop hit $ALPHA holders wallets yesterday from recent trading fees! 🫡 81K $ALPHA was bought with the other half of trading fees & burned to reduce supply 🔥 burn txn: allo.info/tx/4M6NKJ4BSQNLP2Q…

Made my first prediction on @alphaarcade using my @ethereum account on @MetaMask. Transferred 10 @USDC to @Algorand using @Allbridge_io. Picked a market, signed the transaction with my EVM keys. Done. No need to buy $ALGO. No need to download an Algorand wallet. Just me, Alpha Arcade, and MetaMask. Sweet!

🚨IS $ALGO THE ONLY OPTION?🚨 The @AlgoFoundation posted another Quantum computing report claiming most chains aren’t ready! If QC will take over everything other than QC resistant chains, and @Algorand is the only Quantum resistant chain surely $ALGO is the one & only option?

🚨 HOLY CRAP. Sen. Josh Hawley exposes that $1 TRILLION per year goes to fraud "A trillion dollars nationally, where's this money going to?" "Where's this money going? I mean, we know where some of it's going in Minnesota. It went overseas, it went to Somalia, it went to NGO fronts. We know where it's gone in some other states."

Nice coverage, and congrats to @alphaarcade. @dork_fi noticed a number of things a few weeks ago, and are steadily rolling them out this week. It's amazing the new and unnoticed processes that will make a major impact on the protocol.

Everything is open sourced here: github.com/algorandfoundatio… Early Integration is available for Algorand dApps using React and use-wallet (v4): github.com/algorandfoundatio… Currently, using xChain accounts requires replacing @txnlab/use-wallet and use-wallet-ui packages with custom ones. Production grade integration will target use-wallet v5. React is a dependency for the UI layer. If you are interested in integrating on a non-React framework, please fill in this quick survey to help us track demand: forms.gle/qjY5hLREzem6Wrvk6

Let's go Algorand

Our team has been very excited about this update and we hope you like it too! All EVM users can now come to @alphaarcade and just start using the product. Everything else is handled for you underneath the hood. An app should just be an app that's available to everyone to use. Try it out today and let us know how your experience was. EVM distribution with AVM performance.

I've said it from the beginning: lying to Congress is a felony. Destroying federal records is a felony. Advising others to destroy federal records is a felony. Fauci did all three. His adviser was just indicted. Fauci is next. The deadline to prosecute Fauci is May 11. The DOJ must act now. nypost.com/2026/04/28/us-new…

Japan you say👀 $ALGO just flexed on everyone with Japan’s JVCEA fast-track and being crowned quantum king by Coinbase. Price $0.11 looking unstoppable. This one sends harder than your favorite influencer coin. YOU DON'T THINK THEY WILL HODL ALGO? Put some respec on #ALGORAND
