💥 Will Most Bitcoin Treasuries Fail? According to Breed VC, only those able to maintain a sustainable MNAV premium will survive a prolonged bear market. Full decryption👇 https://t.co/UxGtevDwoo

👀 "The majority will fail" That's what crypto VC Breed predicts for companies becoming crypto treasuries. "If the stock trades at or below net asset value (NAV) and lenders refuse to renew their financing, Strategy may be forced to liquidate its Bitcoin holdings to meet its obligations." "Such a scenario could trigger a self-fulfilling negative spiral: falling prices would lead to further forced sales, further increasing downward pressure on the market."

Most people follow. A few build. And then there’s the rare breed that forks. FORK THAT isn’t just a motto - it’s a blueprint for the next generation of blockchain founders. The rules of yesterday don’t work for today’s builders. They need infra that moves as fast as their ideas. They need fewer gatekeepers, more leverage, and a path to launch without begging for VC scraps or grinding through Layer 1 politics. That’s why we built Aurora on @NEARProtocol - a fast, scalable, and low-cost chain where anyone can spin up a fully functional, production-ready blockchain of their own. No need to wait. Just fork it and go. And that’s exactly what the founders in our first Aurora Blocks cohort are doing: • @Optima_Fi – tokenization made usable • @Carbify_io – eco-fintech for the on-chain world • @Coiniseasy – crypto made easy for everyone • @TradableApp – automated trading • @OmegaNetw0rk – layer 1.5 for DeFi and GameFi But founders don’t build alone. That’s why we’ve lined up the Marketplace Partners to give them an unfair advantage: • @NEARProtocol – the execution layer powering it all • @billions_ntwk – the human AI identity portal • @cookiedotfun – crypto data layer for AI • @Mobulaio – on-chain data • @Api3DAO – oracles that pay you • @DIAdata_org – oracle network • @blocksense_ – ZK rollup for programmable oracles • @Hashlock_ – specialists in security audits • @clustersxyz – universal name server • @aleph_im – Web3 supercloud • @cerenetwork – data cloud platform • @cedelabs – trading made fun • @enzymefinance – infra for tokenized finance • @Phron_ai – AI training network We’re not here to convince you blockchain matters. We’re here to show you who’s already building the next one. The future doesn’t run on slogans. It runs on chains. So if the system doesn’t work for you? Fork That. And join the movement.

Security protocol Phylax Systems completes $4.50 million seed round financing.

Today, we are announcing our $4.5m pre-seed, led by @FigmentCapital and @nascentxyz with support from @robotventures, @hash3xyz, @BanklessVC, @breed_vc, and @publicworksfm.We will use these funds to develop The Credible Layer, a hack prevention protocol.Here's the story (there are some twists and turns):On August 1st, 2022, Nomad lost $190 million in one of crypto’s largest hacks—a turning point for @odysseas_eth, a protocol engineer at Nomad.Conversations with users, founders, and engineers revealed a sobering truth:Many can’t sleep for fear of being hacked; some have even left the space entirely. We’re not just losing the best builders and teams to hacks—we’re losing them to the fear of hacks.Read the full announcement here: https://t.co/uyT2BAJW3oIt should be obvious at this point, that one of the primary hurdles to adoption en masse is the BILLIONS of dollars of hacks that occur every year.Current solutions, like fuzzing, next block mitigation, and frontrunning protection, are valuable but by no means a silver bullet. They patch the problem—they don’t solve it. We need security that can’t be bypassed and is verifiable.This is what Phylax Systems is on a war path to deliver.We’re building the Credible Layer, a proactive security layer that allows dApps to define hack-prevention rules and communicate them to the block builder, specifying states they want to prevent. The assertion enforcer checks each transaction against these rules, stopping hacks before they happen.It is non-invasive and is functionally a coordination mechanism between dApps and the base layer, keeping dApps sovereign and secure.The Credible Layer is also fully transparent—anyone can view a dApp’s security rules and verify their enforcement. dApps pay fees for this validation, ensuring their assets remain safeguarded.Some may question the reliance on trusted entities to enforce these rules. However, this model builds on the trust assumptions that already underpin much of blockchain infrastructure; for example, a small number of entities currently support over 90% of Ethereum’s block production.We’re not advocating for increased centralization but rather creating new security mechanisms on top of existing, industry-tested trust structures.Regulators have scrutinized our industry due to high-profile hacks, and while their intentions may not always be entirely impartial and fair, this particular concern is valid. The recent $53MM Radiant hack underscores just how far we still have to go.It’s up to us to prove that security isn’t an afterthought but a core component of every crypto project. As an industry, we must prioritize security in our designs, our products, and how we position ourselves to users—it can no longer be secondary.As @nic__carter said:“We’re long overdue for moving DeFi hack mitigation from reactive to proactive, and Phylax is leading the charge.”We don't want to scar the mainstream as soon as we onboard them. We need security that makes them feel safe. We intend to make this a reality with the Credible Layer.To get the full picture of the Credible Layer, read the Whitepaper (we just released it): https://t.co/qjvs3OfUqmAnd if you are interested in joining the waitlist for the Credible Layer please reach out here: https://t.co/sFcdQNKSSE
