Celebrating STEPN’s 5th Anniversary… G3231, you’ve been with me since 2022 — and now, you’ve finally become Legendary. You deserved this, my old friend. ✌️ We covered countless kilometers together: Rare in 2022. Epic in 2023. And now, we’ll keep moving forward as a Legendary. Just like the very first day you came to me, you’ll stay true to your roots: your original skin and four different socket types exactly as you were meant to be. From Rare → Epic → Legendary. Same G3231. Same journey. New chapter. Keep walking, old friend. 🔵 🟣 🟡 #STEPN #STEPNMEMBER #STEPNEMBER5

BAYC #9418 is home ! A few minutes ago @0xQuit DMed me: "I bought your ape back. Couldn't let you be apeless." Quit, you're a legend. Thank you.
GVA was instrumental in the recovery, thousands more assets would have been lost if not for his efforts. His dedication cost him his ape, which he's held since mint. I just bought it and sent it back. 9418, you're back home now.

My kids call me a “cool unc” So naturally, I hold $UNC 😂 But the more I think about the branding, the more bullish I get Crypto has spent years marketing almost exclusively to the youngest guys in the room Meanwhile the 30+ crowd has careers, disposable income, brokerage accounts, and retirement on the brain $UNC feels built to meme that entire demographic “Unc” is already internet culture. It’s instantly recognizable. It’s endlessly memeable. And the Robinhood Chain RWA reflections angle gives the meme an actual narrative: hold/trade $UNC → earn reflections tied to real world stocks. The retirement coin for the cool unc's 👴📈 If that narrative catches fire, I think $UNC could become one hell of a meme My kids already confirmed my status Certified Cool Unc 😎 Unc's in control $UNC 0xf6e4f7945bba125c36f4f42ae904dd6cc129cf2a

Some heroes don't wear capes. I'm subscribed to you now, and thanks again on behalf of everyone you're a legend. @0xQuit
At 9AM EST today somebody abused a bug in Payment Processor V2 to steal 10 Meebits, 50 Otherdeeds, 10 WoW, and 235 Desperate Apewives. It wasn't until over 12 hours later that somebody reported it to me, and upon digging in I realized that a great many NFTs were subject to the same exploit. I got in touch with the team over at LimitBreak and they quickly paused Payment Processor V3, which was subject to the same exploit. Unfortunately, V2 was not pausable, so the only path towards protecting affected assets was to run a whitehat operation. Similarly, V3 on ApeChain is temporarily in a state where it cannot be paused, so ApeChain assets approved to V3 needed to be saved as well. All in all, we rescued 23,155 NFTs worth north of $5.7M USD. We later discovered that a similar exploit could be used in reverse to steal WETH. 660 WETH was at risk, which we unfortunately were not fast enough to recover. Apologies to those affected. Shout out to @Boomskite for flagging the initial exploit tx to me, and @coffeedev @0xjustadev and @whiteoakkong for acting quickly and assisting with the recovery. All NFTs are safely relocated. Soon, owners will be able claim them back after revoking the exploitable approvals. Addresses to revoke below.

I truly appreciate it.
You’ve spent months shit-talking @BoredApeYC. Curious what you have to say now! When an exploit put thousands of NFTs at risk, @0xQuit from @yugalabs worked through the night and helped lead an operation that rescued 23,155 NFTs worth more than $5.7M from @MagicEden! No PR stunt. No empty words. Just stepping up when Web3 needed it most. You can hate the apes, but you cannot deny the people building behind them. BIG Respect!🫡

First hot, then cold… 🔥🥶 Rare + Uncommon mint 🎲 Pulled an Epic Shoebox… 🔥 Opened it with big dreams… and got a Rare Sneaker. #STEPN said: “Not so fast.” 👀 But hey, at least I walked away with the Veteran Minter badge 🏅 #STEPNEMBER #STEPNER

Why is crypto pumping today? 📈 4 key factors are driving the move: • A strong short squeeze heavy liquidations are adding fuel to the rally. • Bitcoin ETF inflows are picking up again, signaling renewed institutional demand. • The macro environment is turning more supportive for risk assets. • BTC has broken through a key technical resistance, bringing momentum back into the market. Spot demand + institutional flows + short liquidations + technical breakout. A powerful combination. 👀🔥 #BTC #Bitcoin #STEPN
