🥇 twin3 is now #1 in the @Surgexyz_ $250K Contest. The #1 prize is $100,000. If we hold #1, $80,000 of that goes directly to our community: every voter, every inviter, every person who helped us climb here. We're not keeping it. We're sharing it. ✦ THE VISION twin3 is building the Twin Matrix: a network of on-chain Digital Twins. In the AI era, your authentic self stays yours. Uncopiable. Unforgeable. Bots can't pretend to be you. 140,000 humans have already joined. Every Ignite you cast in this contest is a vote for that future. ✦ HOW THE $80,000 SPLITS IF WE HOLD #1 $70,000 → everyone who voted (proportional to your Ignite contribution) $10,000 → everyone who invited a friend (proportional to friends who voted) The moment Surge transfers the prize to twin3, we send it out. On chain. Transparent. Every dollar accounted for. We don't promise what we don't yet hold. The space is full of empty promises. This won't be one of them. ✦ HOW TO PARTICIPATE (3 STEPS) 1. Cast your vote surge.xyz/discovery/twin3 2. Join the twin3 Discord discord.gg/P7AHn7XCe8 3. Upload your vote screenshot to #surge_vote (auto-verified by AI in seconds, your slice locks in) 20 days left. Help us hold #1. Help us grow the Matrix. Every twin matters. Let's keep climbing. 🪜 #TwinMatrix #ProofOfPersonhood #DigitalTwin #Web3 #SBT

Scenes when Messi wins his second world cup

By the time you lots know me, you'd wish you met me earlier. See you soon.

When I saw the news about the $624,000,000 hacks in April alone, my first reaction was panic as well. But $17.1 Billion has been lost since 2016 till date [1]. However, TradFi lost $19 Trillion in just 2008, yet it is still trusted. Keep trusting. [1] x.com/i/status/2050541260604…

I don't know about you. I can't build my career off a social media application. It is too shaky a foundation to build on.

The @battlechain testnet is now LIVE. Come enter the ultimate red-team platform. Give us feedback so we can launch mainnet very soon, and fix web3 security.

I was craving some challenging fun when I saw @Bybit_Official's Easter egg hunt. There are at least 10 eggs scattered around the city. 6 eggs in plain sight and >= 4 eggs were hidden. Now, my craving is satisfied. #BybitEasterEggHunt

Been a while I showed up here. Completely locked-in.

I haven't finished the @CyfrinUpdraft Solidity Fundamental course but I have already written at least 5 NFT contracts. Let's get froggy and certified.

What's the most underrated skill in smart contract security? Not writing Solidity. Not knowing the EVM inside out. Reading other people's code and understanding why they made each decision — including the decisions that turned out to be wrong. Most vulnerabilities aren't new. They're old mistakes in new contexts. What skill do you think separates good auditors from great ones? 👇

To every Web3 builder grinding right now This is for you. You're learning Solidity at midnight while your friends are watching Netflix. You're submitting hackathon projects that don't place anywhere. You're applying to grants that take weeks to respond. Sometimes they don't respond at all. You're building in public with 200 followers while others with half your skill seem to be getting all the opportunities. And some days you genuinely wonder is this even worth it? I want to tell you something nobody says out loud in this industry: The people you admire in Web3 right now the ones with the protocol job, the grants, the ecosystem roles... Most of them had 12–18 months where nothing was happening. No replies. No opportunities. No traction. They just kept showing up anyway. Here's what I've learned watching builders succeed and fail in this space: The ones who made it didn't have better skills than the ones who didn't. They just refused to disappear during the quiet months. Web3 is still early. Embarrassingly early. The infrastructure being built right now will be used by billions of people who haven't heard of blockchain yet. The developer who grinds through 2026 when the market is uncertain. That developer becomes the senior engineer, the protocol lead, the ecosystem architect that every team is desperate to hire in 2028. But only if they don't quit now. So if you're in the quiet months right now. Keep building. Keep shipping. Keep showing up. The compounding hasn't shown up yet. But it will. And when it does it will feel like it happened overnight. It never happens overnight. It happens because of exactly what you're doing right now. Don't stop. ♻️ Repost this for a builder who needs to hear it today.

Damn, I miss the early days of getting into Web3 security. - Sleepless nights grinding through Solidity - Reading the few blogs on how to become an auditor - Security contests blowing up, everyone sharing wins on Twitter - My first contests and how I was struggling to find a Low at least - Reading everything I could just to understand how different protocols actually work Looking back, that was the most interesting phase for me. Now I see new auditors trying to outsource everything to AI before they’ve built any foundation. They’re not even learning how to think anymore. They’re not reading. They copy-paste articles and ask AI to summarize them instead of understanding them. That’s where it breaks. They’re not using AI as a tool. They’re using it as a replacement for themselves. And that’s the problem. You can’t shortcut understanding. You can’t skip the part where things don’t make sense and you struggle through them. That’s the work you need to become better. If you haven’t spent hundreds of hours reading code, breaking things, and actually thinking, AI won’t make you an auditor. It’ll just make you dependent and you will stay bad auditor. Use it as an assistant. Not as a crutch. There’s no way around paying the price.

Every Solidity developer has that one mistake they'll never make again. Which of these hit you hardest? 👇

Beauty lies in the process...

I just had a proud dev moment rn. I was able to explain the difference between ERC-1155 and ERC-721 NFT to non-techie and they perfectly understood 😌😌 How about that for a win.

I built an ERC-1155 NFT Smart Contract. I must confess that this is still pretty basic but it carries the core functionalities. --------------------------------------------------
