good thread from @minacryptocom mesa trailblazers starts june 1st 21 days of real conditions before mainnet - protokit live on devnet - app-chains are now possible on mina this week feels different minallions 🟠 🟣

6/6 Feels like the Mina ecosystem is entering a new phase: • Mesa preparing the core protocol upgrade • Trailblazers preparing the network for rollout • Protokit opening the door for app-chains and more complex applications To see the full unedited update — including news on @ZkNoid and the new o1js Native Prover — watch here 👇 youtube.com/watch?v=Fjlhc2-m…

5/6 Why people are paying attention to #Protokit: Instead of every app competing inside one shared environment, developers can launch chains tailored to their own application. That means: • faster UX • more scalability • shared-state apps • privacy-focused designs • Mina settlement underneath everything (Mina Protocol)

4/6 ⚒️ Meanwhile, another big development: @proto_kit is now live on Devnet. In simple terms, Protokit is a framework for building custom application chains (“app-chains”) on Mina. (Mina Protocol). (I'm building a multi currency application for #Minalia on it).

Join us in 30 minutes for Coffee & Commits. We'll be sharing the latest on o1js, Mesa, Protokit, and more! 👉 youtube.com/watch?v=Fjlhc2-m…

More work on #protokit today... #Minalia now has its own @MinaProtocol appchain prototype: in-game developments pay yield per cycle, decisions affect output, treasury takes a 20% cut. All running on Protokit. STILL TESTING!!

With the help of #Claude I just set #protokit up in less than 30 mins. Very easy! Now to start building.. @o1_labs @proto_kit

people keep asking "what's the difference between protokit and zeko" here's the simplest way i can explain it: > protokit is a toolkit it gives developers the components to build their own custom chains on top of mina think of it like lego bricks for app-chains > zeko is an actual network already live. already running. a layer 2 built for mina zkApps with faster transactions and better UX --- one is the toolkit the other is something built with it they're complementary and both settle back to mina with zero-knowledge proofs which means the privacy and security of mina underneath no matter what you build on top the ecosystem is layering up quietly minallions 🟠 🟣

The bigger picture is that Mina’s stack is expanding beyond just Layer 1 zkApps. We’re starting to see: • zkApps on Mina • shared L2 ecosystems like Zeko • custom app-chains powered by Protokit Personally it feels like the ecosystem is entering a new phase for builders.

You can think of it like this: 🧱 Protokit gives builders the components to create custom chains on top of Mina. 🏙️ Zeko is one example of a high-performance Layer 2 ecosystem already built around those ideas. They’re related — but not competing versions of the same thing.

#Mina Protocol Grafiğin de gösterdiği gibi 2021-2022 boğa piyasasında zirveye ulaştıktan sonra klasik 'crypto bear market ve proje spesifik sorunlar' vurmuş: Genel market: 2024-2026 arası uzun bear, likidite azalışı ile birlikte birçok L1 öldü... Mina özelinde: Tech çok ileri (ZK heavy) ama kullanıcı/adoption yavaş büyüdü... Mesa Upgrade gibi büyük güncellemeler mainnet’e henüz tam geçmedi (testnet’te ilerliyor). Mart 2026 haberlerinde market cap’in 2024 zirvesinden ~� düştüğü, bazı staff cut’lar ve likidite ve exchange sorunları (Coinbase futures delist gibi) konuşuluyor... Sonuçta; Fiyat 0.051$ bandına kadar geriledi (şu an ~ 0.065-0.066$ civarı, market cap ~85M$). Yani proje teknik olarak ölü değil, tam tersine Mesa Testnet ve Protokit ile aktif geliştiriliyor ama fiyat; Hype Likidite Genel Market’e çok bağlı. Peki Bu Şartlarda Grafiğini Nasıl Okuyorum? Klasik long-term bearish structure: Büyük pembe alan = Descending channel / Andrews Pitchfork tarzı. Fiyat üst bandı (1.7$ civarı) 2024'te reddediyor, alt banda (0.05-0.07$) doğru iniyor. Yeşil daireler = Local tepeler / fake breakout denemeleri (2023-2024-2025’teki pump’lar sonra çöküş). Alt yatay mor çubuklar = Destek bölgeleri (0.051-0.07$ bandı)... Mina haftalık: Şu anki konum: Alt destekte, hafif yukarı tepki veriyor... Haftalık dar alanda sıkışmış... Uzun vadeli okuma: Bearish senaryo: Channel içinde kalmaya devam, 0.051$’a test. Bullish senaryo: Mesa mainnet zkApps hype’ı ile channel üst bandı kırılırsa (1.7$ hedefi teorik) çok sert pump da gelebilir. Kısaca: Dip bölgede gibi duruyor ama breakout teyidi bekliyor. 0.05-0.07$ kanalı çok kritik destek. Özetle: Mina teknik olarak çok özgün ve gelecek vadeden bir proje (en hafif ZK chain); kodları güzel ama fiyatı şu an market’in genel acısıyla ezilmiş durumda. Ekibi sağlam, geliştirme devam ediyor (Mesa âktif). Grafik de uzun vadeli dip sinyali veriyor ama sabır ve Mesa mainnet başarıyı gerektiriyor. İyi kazançlar dilerim.; her şey gönlünüzce olsun.. #Mina #MinaProtocol #Bitcoin

Mina’s zkApps excel at applications where state is user-specific. However, shared-state apps — DEXs, games, marketplaces, prediction markets — require custom infrastructure, making it complex for developers. Protokit solves this, providing the execution layer needed to run high-performance, shared-state apps on Mina.
