DC, Marvel style. Must admit, Ghibli style is good but Marvel style much better, it simply rocks 🤘. In my opinion.

Privacy isn't a feature. It's an absence. The thing you don't see. The leak that didn't happen. The data that didn't move. Nothing to look at. Working as designed.

1/ Public mempools were always a tradeoff. The argument was 'anyone can audit, anyone can build, transparency is the feature.' That's true for the network. It's not true for the user. Every order, every liquidation, every rebalance sits in the open before it executes. Predators know what you're going to do before you do it.

1/ Most people's AI context is a mess. Notes in one tool. Highlights in another. Conversations across three chat interfaces that don't talk to each other. Every new session starts over. @PluralityWeb3 built AI Context Flow to fix this: one place to hold your context, carried into any tool, any agent, any website.

1/ "IP" | Intent Privacy Every transaction on a public chain leaks two things before it executes: what you want to do, and how much you want it. An intent (a swap, a borrow, a trade) sits in the public mempool from the moment you sign. Searchers, MEV bots, and competing traders all see it. The price you get is shaped by the fact that they saw it first.

This week: a Decoded on intent privacy, a surprise ecosystem thread, a Thursday read on what public mempools have cost DeFi, and the Critérium du Dauphiné final weekend.

Everyone talks about keeping data safe while it's stored or being sent somewhere. But there's a moment nobody talks about enough: what happens when your data is actually being used? That's when it's most exposed. And that's exactly what Confidential Compute is designed to protect @OasisProtocol $ROSE

The problem was never that people didn't believe in privacy. It was the infrastructure that made you choose — hide everything or expose everything. @OasisProtocol refuses to accept that tradeoff. No custodian should have access to your data. $ROSE

Every time you trade on a DEX, there's a good chance a bot quietly takes a cut of your transaction. Not a fee you agreed to. Not gas. Just value quietly extracted from your trade before it even settles. Most people have no idea it's happening. $ROSE @OasisProtocol @PrivanaFinance

Monday🥱 Imagine if every Venmo you sent was broadcast to your coworkers. That's most of DeFi today. We're working on it.

Sunday on Oasis🌹 Quietly building. Mainnet up and running for almost six years. Same job tomorrow.

That's what you get when you go privacy-first with @OasisProtocol - vibe with the TEEs

DeFi has a problem most people don't talk about enough. Before your transaction even goes through, bots can already see it. And they use that information to get ahead of you and take money right out of your trade. It happens millions of times a day. @OasisProtocol $ROSE

"Friday. Five days of pretending we have life-work balance. Two days of pretending the laptop doesn't exist. Both work. See you Monday."

People think privacy in crypto means hiding everything. It doesn't have to work that way. What if you could keep your data private by default but choose exactly what to share, with whom, and when? That's Selective Disclosure. And it's what makes confidential DeFi actually usable in the real world, because at some point, privacy and compliance have to meet in the middle. And @OasisProtocol gets that. $ROSE

Crypto has always promised access. Access to markets and financial products that were never built for the average person. That promise is finally starting to look real. @MidasRWA is bringing mTBILL to @OasisProtocol Sapphire, and it's a bigger deal than it sounds $ROSE

"Three years ago: ""we promise we won't train on your data."" Today: ""we cannot train on your data because the cryptography prevents it."" The first is a policy. The second is infrastructure. Guess which one will be standard in 2030."

Real talk — crypto without privacy isn't crypto at all. Your wallet is public. Your transactions are traceable. Anyone with enough time can follow your every move on-chain. That's not freedom. That's just a more transparent version of the system we were trying to escape. Most projects stopped caring about this a long time ago. Too busy chasing hype. @OasisProtocol $ROSE never did. Privacy isn't a feature they added later. It's what the whole thing was built around from day one. That's rare. And it matters more now than most people realise.

Crypto keeps trying to fix coordination problems by adding more coordination. More signers. More approvals. More governance. More layers. What if that's the wrong direction entirely? @OasisProtocol $ROSE

1/ A tokenized T-Bill is a great product. A tokenized T-Bill on a public ledger is a broadcast of who holds what, how much, and when they moved it. That's not how institutions buy treasuries today, and it's not how they'll buy them onchain either.

Blockchain gave us transparency. But somewhere along the way, transparency became overexposure. Every wallet, every transaction, every interaction. Became public forever. That works for speculation. It doesn’t work for the real world. This is where @OasisProtocol $ROSE comes in
