Zcash is not private Bitcoin. Stop trying to make the narrative of Zcash as “private Bitcoin.” And stop saying that Zcash should be a certain percentage of Bitcoin’s market cap.

$ZEST is now listed on @binance Futures with up to 10x leverage.

Congratulations to @januszg_ and the @lxdev_ team on raising their pre-seed round! Just as a fun tidbit for everyone: @januszg_ sends the best investor updates around. He’s always bluntly real, sharing both the good and problems to be solved, on top of some of the amazing things he and his team are working on. These updates provided us the ability to know where and when we can be most helpful as a fund. It’s exactly what investor updates are supposed to do. Looking forward to the world getting to see what @lxdev_ is working on! Disclosure: @sats_ventures is an investor in @lxdev_.

Independent review from @bitcoindiy is in. Surge Credit: 7.5/10 What they validated: ◆ Custody model 10/10 — "best in class" ◆ Taproot vault on mainnet, key-path spend mathematically disabled ◆ Unilateral exit: recover your BTC yourself if Surge disappears ◆ Zero rehypothecation, verifiable on-chain What's still open — and we're on it: ◇ EVM audit (in selection) ◇ DCN signers public in June ◇ No liquidation cascade survived on mainnet yet Don't trust. Verify. Review in comments. 👇

Congratulations to @TychoOnnasch and the @ZestProtocol team on the TGE! I’m looking forward to seeing Zest Protocol continue its growth, especially with the impending launch of Bitcoin Collateral Vaults. Disclosure: Sats Ventures is an investor in Zest Protocol.

Well, it looks like it happened!

Hi there, bitcoin:native!

Yes!

Native Bitcoin markets, in addition to Native Stacks markets, will help to position @ZestProtocol as a go-to protocol for Bitcoin lending. Most Bitcoiners are not comfortable with bridging or wrapping, and with Native Bitcoin deposits coming soon, it opens a new pathway. I look forward to seeing the growth of native Bitcoin on Zest.

Another step in the journey for @surge_credit: from private beta to public beta. Go check them out if you’re looking to unlock a credit line against your Bitcoin.

If you've been playing around with @arkade_os, you may have noticed an 'Arkade address' in your Receive tab You may be wondering: 👉 Why is it so long? 👉 Why is the first part the same even after creating a new wallet? 👉 How does it relate to my mainnet Bitcoin address?

It would be the funniest thing if every Bitcoin miner turned AI data center sold at the Bitcoin bottom.

New largest swap in our @SatsTerminal integration: $110k The whales are active 😮‍💨

Expanding to the Bitcoin base layer is the natural next step. Self-custodial BTC-backed loans are the holy grail for unlocking idle BTC capital. More to be unveiled.

Day 1 at Bitcoin Vegas 2026 — strong start. Great reception from Bitcoiners. They get the credit line, the rates — and start questioning the products they’re using today. A lot of deep questions on how it works and why it’s priced better. Our Workshop 101 talk was packed, followed by a solid 10-min Q&A more conversations after. Fired up for tomorrow. This is fun. Shoutout to the team.
