Ascend Community. We are deeply sorry for the delay in rolling out the full website.
Our site was hit with a coordinated DDoS attack early this morning that lasted 8 straight hours and set us back quite a bit. We needed extra time to put additional protections in place to help prevent this from happening again.
We’re working to make sure everything rolls out smoothly, including staking and the Ascend Points Program.
We built this program to reward creators who are serious about building projects that last. If you’re putting in the work to grow your project and build a community around it, we want to reward that.
We’re also taking extra care with the staking rollout. We take security very seriously, and that’s part of why we’ve needed a little more time. Really appreciate you guys being patient with us.
We are close to Ascending.
Ascend generated $188.3K in protocol fees during private testing alone.
Creators earned $98,448 in fees and have already received $66,730 of that total with our dynamic fee structure protecting traders & empowering builders.
We’ve set aside $62,191 to buy back $KNTQ once liquidity is fully seeded on Elysium, plus $15,548 for $HYPE buybacks.
Tomorrow, we Ascend to Elysium.

PSA to all of the Ascend and Elysium community.
I keep seeing a lot of posts about the friction Ascend created when we launched so I wanna speak on that myself. If I’d spent weeks getting a community off the ground and woke up to a copy of our coin trading on Ascend, I’d be pretty annoyed too. So I do see where a lot of your guys frustration comes in. Stay with me here.
Ascend is a fully permissionless launchpad. Anyone can go on the site and launch whatever they want without talking to me or anyone on the team. We never set out to vamp another project or pull people away from a community they’d already built.
One of the coolest parts of this past week has been seeing people rally around Blob, e/acc, chameleon. Some not launched on Ascend, and I’m still hyped to see it. Elysium hasn’t even officially launched yet and people already have a community here they care enough about to defend. These are the vibes we need to bring back to crypto.
A lot of you guys know me from when I was apart of Azuki community. Half the time you knew who was tweeting just from their PFP. I miss that. In crypto now it feels like people are already asking “what’s next?” before they’ve even gotten to know the people in the coin they just bought. A big reason we built Ascend was to keep supporting projects after launch and give those communities time to grow.
I also want to clarify about why we were quiet when trading started. We were asked to hold off on saying Ascend was live during private testing. The plan was always to deploy on Elysium early so we could test the protocol and integrate partners ahead of November 9. People figured out how to bridge in and started trading. We can't control who bridges in, but I also get how it looked from your side. You could see trades going through and you hadn’t heard a word from us.
The Ascend model is fully built on giving value back to you guys. We believe that to many top protocols in the space rip so much value from the ecosystem and give very minimal value back. Ascend wants to make the change that we all wanna see happen so bad in our industry.
The team and I have put a lot of late nights into Ascend. I’m proud of what we’ve built and I can’t wait for you guys to get your hands on the full product when Elysium officially launches on November 9.
I still don’t like the way @AscendLaunch decided to launch.
But the more I look at the bigger picture, the more I think they’re actually playing the right game.
They’ve always made it clear that their goal is to help tickers reach Hypercore.
And unlike other launchpads, they don’t have their own token to pump.
Their fees go towards kinetiq:native buybacks, directly aligning their success with the ecosystem.
No token means a much higher ceiling for coins on the pad and no need to overmilk launches and endless pvp just to generate fees and keep their own project alive. It’s just a nice add for kinetiq:native.
Also, you can clearly see the difference between teams spending their cash on KOLs and teams actually using it to secure Hypercore tickers and contribute to the ecosystem.
I genuinely think securing the Hypercore ticker for $e/acc was a genny move.
Especially considering that despite everyone FUDding the launch, the coin barely dipped.
Outside of the big hands, almost nobody has an average entry below $700K–$1M mcap.
I think there’s still a lot of room to run.
Of course, it all depends on whether Elysium actually cooks, but so far, things are looking pretty good.
I’ll probably buy a dip on the 9th if we get one.

The Ascend Token Catalyst Pipeline. ↗️
At Ascend we have built an entire pipeline of catalysts designed to help projects grow and reach their full potential by leveraging Hyperliquid’s infrastructure.
Launch → Ascended Status → HyperCore Spot → HIP-3 Perps → Ascend Strategic Partner
And because we have no separate Ascend token, our priority remains the projects launching with us. We want these tokens to grow freely without unnecessary ceilings holding them back.
Ascend is becoming the growth engine of the entire Elysium ecosystem, and we’re actively looking for promising teams to support.
To celebrate our upcoming launch, we’re giving away 5 whitelist spots to our community.
To enter:
* Follow @AscendLaunch
* Like and repost this tweet
* Quote tweet describing your favorite feature of Ascend.
We’ll be selecting whitelist winners in 24 hours.

Elysium isn't even live yet and @AscendLaunch is already doing nearly 8 figs annualized kinetiq:native buybacks...
Fwiw, this is over twice what I was forecasting in my kinetiq:native "bull thesis post"...before the chain is even live...after a self admitted somewhat messy launch
Will be very interesting to watch how this number scales up when Elysium is fully online, and how sustainable the revenue proves to be in this new launchpad model.

Ecstatic to be partnering up with Ascend for their builder program.
e/acc
Ascend is committing up to $250,000 to builders and creating a path for exceptional teams to earn directly from Ascend’s revenue.
Introducing the Ascend Builder Incubator and Ascend Strategic Partner Program.
Builders from every chain are welcome. DeFi protocols, memecoins, experiments with perps and outcome markets, AI products, consumer apps, and more. Come build and launch with Ascend.
1. Ascend Builder Incubator
We’re allocating up to $250,000 in direct funding across selected incubator teams, with the potential to increase this commitment if we see an exceptional influx of high-quality projects.
Builders will also receive KNTQ incentives through Ascend Points, hands-on development support, coordinated distribution, and targeted introductions to institutions, VCs, and ecosystem partners.
They will also work with our new tokenomics and onchain growth specialist on token design, incentives, GTM strategy, and launch execution. His experience includes advising Pumpfun, Variational, and Monad as well as onchain projects reaching 9-figure valuations.
Builders will also work directly with @tago_capital, a design, product, and development studio whose clients have collectively raised $80M in venture capital. Their team brings experience building with J.P. Morgan, Atlassian, the University of Oxford, Commonwealth Bank of Australia, Canva, Macquarie Bank, and Infinex.
Qualifying projects can pursue Ascended status and ecosystem buybacks, HyperCore spot listings, and eligible HIP-3 perpetual markets facilitated by our partner @Kinetiq_xyz
2. Ascend Strategic Partner Program
Exceptional incubator teams and leading Ascend projects can earn a long-term economic partnership with Ascend, receiving the full incubator package plus recurring allocations from a dedicated portion of Ascend’s revenue.
We’ll select one inaugural Strategic Partner from the incubator, based on product quality and our conviction in the team’s ability to execute.
Each partner’s revenue allocation is split:
75% paid directly to the project’s treasury for development, salaries, and growth.
25% toward automatic open-market buybacks of the project’s token, separate from existing ecosystem buybacks for which it qualifies.
This gives selected teams another income stream from Ascend itself, extending beyond their own token’s trading activity. Direct treasury payments require no token sale, helping fund development and operations without relying entirely on creator fees or selling tokens.
Builders gain an ongoing financial relationship with the platform they help grow. Allocations depend on eligible Ascend revenue actually received.

Tag a builder or project you wanna see on Ascend. We’ll select some of our favorite nominations for Ascend NFT whitelist spots.
