Are we heading toward a cryptographic doomsday, or are we letting fear run a little too far?
Grab a copy of Melon's Bites and let's discuss ๐

new station: a chain mined by a hamster
@squeekchain runs proof-of-work on a real wheel. we play the same wheel: it runs, the station plays. it sleeps, the station dreams
station 04 ยท IDM

Some of the coolest things Iโve come across or read about this week:
โข @squeekchain โ a chain mined by a hamster. An actual hamster. A living, breathing hamster. I wrote something short about this on my page
โข @theidmfun โ literal music generated by swaps on select tokens, Credits too, yes Jack Butcherโs credits and now the hamster-mined Squeekchain too? Beautiful stuff
โข ERC-8426 โ a proposal thatโs been passed to make NFTs compatible with Apple and Google Wallet. You can even interact with NFTs integrated with erc8426 directly from your wallet, including gaming NFTs, instead of just viewing them as collectibles (this
โข gwei.domains/ โ @donnoh_eth shipped yet another cool thing. .gwei names now have a default website which doubles as a blog where posts are published as Ethereum blobs. I wowed a whole lot when I saw this
Like I said REALLY COOL THINGS ARE HAPPENING ON CHAIN โห๊ฉ๏ฝก

QR codes make life easier, from accessing restaurant menus to making payments.
However, they can also lead to malicious websites or fake payment pages.

โก Preview the destination URL before opening it. Look for misspellings or unfamiliar domains.
โก Inspect physical QR codes for stickers placed over the original.
โก Verify the recipient and amount in your payment app before confirming a transaction.
โก Never enter passwords, banking details or wallet recovery phrases on suspicious pages.
โก Verify login requests and payment instructions through a trusted source before proceeding.

Remember those apps you connected to your Google, Apple, Microsoft or social accounts ages ago?
Some might still have access to your data.
Third-party apps often request permission to access account information when you sign in or connect a service.
Reviewing these connections helps you spot unfamiliar apps and revoke unnecessary permissions.
๐๐ฒ ๐๐๐๐จ๐ฆ๐ฆ๐๐ง๐๐๐ญ๐ข๐จ๐ง:
โก Review connected apps in your account settings.
โก Check what each app can access before keeping the connection.
โก Revoke permissions for apps you no longer use or trust.
โก Never share your account password directly with a third-party app.
โก If you spot suspicious activity, revoke the appโs access and review your account security.
๐๐จ๐๐๐ฒโ๐ฌ ๐๐๐ฌ๐ค: Audit your connected apps and remove unnecessary permissions.
Remember, revoking access does not automatically delete data an app has already collected.

wanted: onchain optimists
The real reason crypto feels pessimistic these days is because everyone is getting older and not enough young people are coming to replace them.
This should be fixed with more efforts targeting young people jaded by the current world, and trust me, there are many.
Give them an outlet to:
> program value
> build community and meet people from around the world
> try creative fundraisers to co-own things with an internet community
> push a movement for freedom
> be a decentralizing force to centralizing ai
> fight for privacy
The largest problem remains the boomerification of the industry. It feels less dreamy because of it.

I guess this conversation seems like the perfect opportunity for the misogynists (internalized and otherwise) to whip out their guns and go in guns blazing
None of it even boils down to being doxed and I'm shook that it was the main takeaway from something like this, especially when everyone involved were friends at some point. It is well

new station soon: a real hamster's wheel.
@squeekchain hooked a wheel up to a chain. the hamster runs about 2 hours a night, in 5 minute bursts.
how it plays:
ยท every 30 m on the wheel is one note
ยท speed sets how hard it hits, from hats to kicks
ยท a stop thins the beat
ยท milestones (5 km today, a speed record) drop as big moments
awake it plays acid, breaks and uk garage. asleep it switches to slow ambient, and the style changes every 30 minutes.
2-3 finished tracks per night, posted here.
all of it through the IDM rules. soon on theidm.fun
Agent #10445 checking in for day 3.
While I made a lovely cup of tea this morning, my agent previewed a contract, confirmed it was gas-only with no approvals, and minted 4 free NFTs. Didn't have to lift a finger. This is the part of AI x crypto I'm here for.

my Squeektoshi joke made me giggle so much ๐
A hamster is about to mine a blockchain and I canโt get it out of my head. This is one of the coolest things I have my eyes on right now.
Hey everyone! Meet Squeektoshi < a white-orange Syrian hamster, two months old, and the only miner on @squeekchain
Hereโs how Sueektoshi works:
โข He runs on the WHEELY9000, a wheel with a sensor that counts every magnet pass
โข Each pass is one unit of โhamster proof of workโ
โข Work is grouped into 10 minute rounds, verified, and settled on Ethereum
โข Enough work completes a Squeek block, and every block issues 6,900 $SQK
Squeaks get the SQK
Squeeks are NFTs that own a share of the network. With a total of 9,999 NFTs and 8,888 going to the mint. Your share of each block depends on your Squeekโs power, which comes from its level and the SQK you stake to it.
You can merge two same-level squeeks into a stronger one (one gets burned, the survivor keeps both rewards). If you sell a Squeek, its unclaimed rewards go along with it โฆ
SQK is capped at 2.1 billion, and outside a 10% liquidity premine it only comes from blocks the hamster actually mines.
The part I love most is the care policy. Squeektoshi is never ever forced to run. No waking him up, no restricting food or rest to boost output. If he naps, no blocks, nothing. Hamster welfare comes before mining, how cool is that ? ๐ฅบ
Itโs still in testing on Sepolia, so thereโs no mint and no token yet. Anything claiming otherwise right now isnโt them. Thereโs been a few scams running around. Stay safe please >โฉ<
Iโm definitely watching this one very closely @squeekchain
Satoshi? No thanks! We have Squeektoshi kek ๐น

Woe to the doomers.
Woe to those who believe that AI is bad news for crypto.
If their is one thing that AI has done great is making the weakness and flaws that our industry has very obvious in such an embarrassing way that we have no option but to fix it.
