Stablecoins: XRP Ledger & Xahau

Hodor — Wed, 26 Aug 2026 19:35:31 GMT

The Lost Crypto

Hodor — Sat, 08 Aug 2026 02:06:18 GMT

Owning self-custody crypto is not the same a bank account; there's no customer service line to call, no password reset, no next-of-kin override. The same cryptographic strength that makes crypto secure against theft also makes it hostile to inheritance.

The unregulated stretch that let unbacked tokens and sham volume distort prices is closing, not because the underlying temptation to cheat has disappeared, but because the capability to catch it finally exists.

Hooks are intentionally not capable of unlimited, arbitrary computation. That sounds like a limitation, but for a financial guardrail, it's actually an important feature; simple, predictable rules are easier to audit and harder to exploit than open-ended code.

Grassroots: Crypto 2.0

Recognizing which game you're actually playing - cascade, contest, or durability - is a small piece of the puzzle in a market built almost entirely on human psychology.

Proving Hooks Are Safe

Hodor — Sat, 11 Jul 2026 11:55:00 GMT

A Hook can, by design, construct and send nearly any transaction type on its account's behalf. That flexibility is powerful, but it also means the space of things a Hook could theoretically do is far too large for any one developer to reason through.

One Xahau is proving that its implementation is having a very real, positive, and profound effect on Xahau DEX liquidity for the pairings that it supports, and may set the stage for what will be successful in the native AMM feature.

EverArcade

Hodor — Thu, 02 Jul 2026 03:16:00 GMT

EverArcade's version of the Oasis is aptly named "The Continuum" ... because it introduces worlds that can't be deleted by one man or company. It enables creators who can't be shortchanged by uneven power dynamics.
