🔥Hot sci-fi take of the week🔥 Satoshi Nakamoto was from the future. He saw a humanity being enslaved by robots🤖 They took over the world because we didn’t own and control them. He saved mankind by creating digital currency, to allow us to tokenize machines. 🦾 @peaq

Quiet on the outside. Loud in the lab. We’ve been heads-down building something that changes how robots learn. The first Repos start to drop end of May. With More coming. 👀 #DePIN #DePAI #Robotics #Blockchain.

Maybe it's the low token prices or simply my critical nature – but I have to get something off my chest. Things have become very quiet around @peaq on X. In my opinion, ending the Get Real and @KaitoAI campaigns was the right thing to do. Ending the Ambassador programm is another story. But it has also left its mark. Many daily voices have disappeared. The community seems quieter. I don't believe that nothing is happening in the background. But communication is very restrained. And that's exactly what creates uncertainty – especially in a weak market. @dorloechter @MaxThake @WendlerTill It's not about responding to every rage post. It's about taking the community with you: – Will there be another campaign to reward power users? – What's happening in Dubai with the Machine Economy Free Zone? – Which machines will be tokenized next? – How are user numbers developing? – How should activity on @machinedex grow? I would also like to see more transparency from partners. If an update causes bugs – say so clearly. If there are challenges, talk about them. Honesty builds trust. Especially when it's uncomfortable. I'm not writing this out of frustration. I remain convinced of the potential of Peaq and the Machine Economy. But conviction needs communication. We need more insight, not more hype. I'll keep collecting tokens and points with @MapMetrics @DeNetPro @silencioNetwork @DATSProject @AnyoneFDN @roam_network @Acurast @375ai_ @ReflexDAO @SkyX_Network @xmaquina and @combinderio Let me know if you're still there! @SunshineGinGirl @0xEl9ar9ni @NordicMiner @solfrater_sol @JardinFi @AndreyMcQueen @avni87744 @cryptorrocus @Cryptobkjack @groundsurfer @cryptotravelz @WillySon23 @krypto_woelfe @Rst120377 @gatsumaruu @RealCryptoDino @mvpjugg @TheTetherman @unen_godswill @kevin0608x @PunkRawk777 @JacobB13092 @jey_jey_Japa @sheldon_elwy @Ryanbabel @tornado01373 @flowthrulifee @jonimbas @YakupDCL @vincentinfra @peaqyblinder @geekiedj

After Get Real, the big question for me is: how does @Peaq turn short-term activation into long-term engagement? (And yes, I think the decision to end the campaign is right.) A few ideas for the @peaq team, just for inspiration, even though I'm sure @dorloechter, @MaxThake and @WendlerTill are already working on something. ❓Will there be a similar campaign where (heavy) users can receive additional rewards? ❓Will there be no more campaigns at all? ❓How will the apps be brought to an even larger audience and how will Peaq convince even more users and customers? ➡️ A few spontaneous ideas: 1. Cross-app challenges and quests 🤝📱📲 A big advantage of Peaq is its multi-app ecosystem – this could certainly be exploited even more. When I'm on the go, I always collect data with several apps. It would therefore make sense to have cross-app quests and challenges. ➕Advantage for Peaq: Users use multiple apps ➕Advantages for users: Cross-app quests provide additional rewards 2. Personal Peaq dashboards Users love numbers and insights that show them how much data they have collected and how much they have achieved. A Peaq dashboard listing all the apps a Peaqonaut uses and showing their current progress would be an additional incentive to use the apps. ➕Advantage for Peaq: The Peaq app becomes more attractive and is used more often. ➕Advantage for users: They have an overview of their activities on the Peaq apps and a summary, which shows the overall progress. 3. Education 🧠 When you look at it in detail, Peaq is still very complex for the average consumer. The Peaq apps should definitely include a learning area. Users read content or watch explanatory videos and then solve puzzles to earn rewards. This was also considered in the Get Real campaign. ➕Advantage for Peaq: Users begin to understand Peaq better, the complexity is simplified, and more users utilize the Peaq app. ➕Advantage for users: The gamification approach provides entertainment and users receive rewards for solving tasks. 4. Collaboration with local companies 🏙️🤝🌍 I am aware that this sounds easier than it is to implement, but for many Peaq partners, collaborations with local companies would be worthwhile. Take @roam_network, for example. I recently spoke with an employee of a Swiss mobile phone provider and introduced him to Roam. He was quite impressed and very interested in the data because he works in a data center and can only see the network coverage of his own provider, not that of the competition. Roam has data that all providers would be interested in, which calls for collaboration. ➕Advantage for Peaq: Peaq is becoming increasingly recognized locally and is opening up new areas. Collaboration with local companies promotes awareness of Peaq around the world. ➕Advantage for users: Local quests could be created for users, allowing them to network even more intensively within the community. 5. Country leaderboards 📜🇨🇭🇩🇪🇵🇹🇳🇬🇭🇰 On @MapMetrics, I can always see how many Mapsters there are in my area. However, there is no way to get in touch with them. I would really like to find and get to know other Peaq app users from Switzerland so that a community can develop. Unless users are active on other platforms, it is difficult to find them and get in touch with them. Local leaderboards could show how many users there are in Switzerland (and other countries of course), and anyone who wants to can enter their Discord or X user name. ➕Advantage for Peaq: Peaq has insights into the distribution by country and can run more targeted campaigns. ➕Advantage for users: Users find allies and community growth (local and global) is promoted. Curious which of these resonates most with the community – and what I’m missing. Happy to discuss or help think this through further. #Peaq #DePIN @SunshineGinGirl @0xEl9ar9ni @NordicMiner @solfrater_sol @JardinFi @_theDTT @AndreyMcQueen @avni87744 @CRYPTOAD00 @cryptorrocus @Cryptobkjack @groundsurfer @walid_sader @cryptotravelz @WillySon23 @krypto_woelfe @Rst120377 @gatsumaruu @RealCryptoDino @mvpjugg @TheTetherman @unen_godswill @kevin0608x @peaq_james @PunkRawk777 @JacobB13092 @jey_jey_Japa @jonimbas @mgt_felix @knox_29 @heismarven123 @sheldon_elwy @Ryanbabel @tornado01373 @jonimbas @YakupDCL @vincentinfra @peaqyblinder @Cryptobkjack @BadCrazyMad @geekiedj

Reflecting on 2025 2025 has been a tough year for most crypto founders, investors and community members. The cycle turned out differently than almost everyone predicted and hoped, with no traditional altseason. It had however also been a year where fundamentals and revenue have inched closer to front and center – which is a positive development. It's a good step forward to focus on value creation, yet our industry still has a long way to go. Almost all of the celebrated high-revenue projects are in gambling, be it perp DEXs, prediction markets, or meme launchpads. As an industry, we can do so much better. We have to do better. On the other hand, DePIN shows early signs of real-world revenue being created, early proof that real goods and services can be offered and consumed onchain. Investors started heavily focusing on valuing projects based on their revenue. Here I’d add the caveat that some revenues are sustainable, such as a DePIN with a strong demand side and other revenues are cycle- and narrative-driven, such as meme launchpads. The value of a network like peaq, though, is more complex than its revenue alone. Economic weight accrues to the network and token through multiple mechanisms. While most tokens have one or two utility vectors, PEAQ powers a new economy and gains weight as machines come to life in the global machine economy. Just like the dollar builds strength from human work, spending, and trade, PEAQ accrues from machines producing goods and services. We’ll share a lot more on this in the new year. In 2024, we had a clear target: to launch successfully. We exceeded all expectations and ended 2024 at a peak. That singular goal made it easy to focus all our efforts. In 2025, we achieved many big milestones. To name a few: the world’s first tokenized revenue-generating robot, distributing bear-market resistant revenues from everyday people buying salad in Hong Kong on peaq. We established the world’s first Machine Economy Free Zone in the UAE, officially recognized by VARA. We paved the way for robots to come onchain and exceeded 6 million addresses on peaq by machines and humans. It was a year of laying foundations for the future. 2025 turned out to be more challenging than 2024. Having a listed asset and pressure from a noisy market made it more difficult for us to take a step back and look at the bigger picture. But we did exactly that in the past weeks. We zoomed out and reflected on the year: what worked and what didn’t. As a result, we’ve made many big decisions. Here are some high-level ones: • We stopped everything that doesn’t have a measurable impact • We double down on what makes peaq unique • We refined our strategy • We work solely based on metrics that drive our north star and revenues around peaq’s intrinsic value We’re starting into the new year with the most clarity and focus we’ve ever had. The vision remains unchanged, yet it got sharpened to the core – and you can read all of this in the Purple Paper we’ll release in 2026. I like Jeff Bezos’ Day One philosophy at Amazon a lot — one should always operate like it’s the first day of the journey. It feels like Day One at peaq. We’re just getting started, as hungry, dedicated and driven as ever before. With the big advantage of having the level of clarity and focus you can only get from experience. No matter where the market is at right now, I’m ready and pumped for 2026. Onwards and Upwards 🦾

People keep asking why I’m not talking about peaq as much anymore, and whether I sold and moved on. Short answer: no. I haven’t sold a single $PEAQ, and I’m just as bullish as I’ve ever been. When sentiment on the timeline is at all-time lows and fear is everywhere, there’s little value in trying to convince people every day to buy a high-risk asset. And that’s exactly what $PEAQ still is: a high-risk, high-reward bet on the machine economy and robotics. Yes, what peaq is trying to build is extremely ambitious. There’s absolutely a scenario where they fail. That’s the reality of frontier bets. But if they succeed, the upside is more asymmetric than almost anything else I see in crypto today. I’m not sure many other altcoins offer comparable upside in a success case. A $130M FDV for a purpose-built L1 aiming to bring the multi-trillion-dollar machine economy, billions of machines and robots, as well as their revenues onchain. On top of that, they’re pioneering entirely new primitives like Machine DeFi, and working closely with the UAE government to establish machine RWAs as a new asset class. A bet I am happy to take. I know in crypto, teams going quieter is often interpreted as a rug or abandonment. History has shown that this is fair enough. But I can say with confidence that @dorloechter, @WendlerTill, @MartinElKhouri and their team have been relentlessly building in the background, and the fundamentals have never been stronger. Combine that with a likely improvement in market sentiment and accelerating momentum in robotics. Watch @peaq in 2026, they are far from being dead.

CHARLES HOSKINSON: TRUMP'S MEMECOIN DERAILED CRYPTO REGULATION Charles Hoskinson says crypto was on track for a bipartisan regulatory win, until TrumpCoin changed the optics. According to Hoskinson, the CLARITY Act was expected to pass with broad support in late 2024. Around 70 senators were projected to vote yes, and crypto had backing across both parties after the Gensler era. Then $TRUMP launched. Hoskinson argues the timing mattered. Launching a personal crypto project before a clear regulatory framework gave critics an easy narrative: crypto became “Trump = corruption” instead of a neutral technology issue. That shift made it politically harder for Democrats to support the bill. Voting for crypto suddenly looked like endorsing Trump himself, which turned CLARITY into a midterm campaign weapon instead of bipartisan legislation. He says the fallout wasn’t just political, it distorted the market. Bitcoin pushed to new highs, but altcoins stayed suppressed as regulatory uncertainty froze risk-taking and capital rotation. Hoskinson’s takeaway is blunt: if the framework had passed first, TrumpCoin could have launched later with legal clarity, less backlash, and likely more success. Instead, crypto lost momentum at a critical moment, not because of tech or demand, but because of timing and optics.
