BullVerse Update
BullPad
There have been numerous inquiries regarding BullPad, and we would like to address them. After careful consideration, the team has decided that launching BullPad at this time would not be beneficial. The market sentiment remains highly bearish, trading volumes across financial markets are low, and overall uncertainty persists. Furthermore, Pump.fun’s volume has decreased by 95% from its all-time high. All signs indicate that this is not the ideal time to release a launchpad. However, we remain fully committed to launching it when market conditions are more favorable.
BullPay
BullPay is currently in beta (available at bullpay.fun). As well-needed solution in the space, it is connected to a lot of upcoming features inisde the platform. BullPay will serve not only as a marketplace but also as a crypto payment gateway, like Stripe or PayPal for crypto transactions. We developed an API kit allowing our partners to get paid from their website or mobile app.
Activity Rewards & User Experience
We are still working on developing a sustainable, more gamified and automated solution for activity rewards. Once this is finalized, we will announce it, and automated payouts will resume.
The BullVerse Ecosystem
It’s important to note that BullVerse is a long-term project. We are continually enhancing user, partner, and community engagement. As with any major project, development will unfold progressively rather than all at once.
Communication
The team is working tirelessly behind the scenes to improve the BullVerse ecosystem daily. Many individuals are involved, and significant resources have been invested in this project. Our commitment is unwavering, and we continue to expand our network by forming strategic partnerships, which are crucial for long-term growth. The vision is clear and we are enjoying the journey.
Teasers
Our primary focus has been on laying a strong foundation by creating a stable platform that incorporates both incentives and crypto utilities. Our main goal is to deliver a clear and practical use case that attracts the visibility BullVerse deserves. As a utility project, we view this as a key driver of our success: BullVerse should not just be about content, but also a hub where crypto enthusiasts can speculate, win, lose, be rewarded, and find their community. Something exciting is coming very soon..
Bullish times are ahead,

WHAT ARE THE BIGGEST OBSTACLES TO DePIN GROWTH??
In a recent appearance at ETHToronto, Frank Mathis highlights the next steps for DePIN’s future.
GenesysGo founder Frank Mathis is no stranger to the highs and lows of crypto’s thriving DePIN sector.
Drawing on his years of experience, Mathis joined other DePIN thought leaders at ETHToronto, including Helium COO Scott Sigel, to discuss the future of the sector.
“If DePIN solves that, DePIN is inevitable”
Like many passionate crypto community members, DePIN advocates staunchly argue that DePIN is inevitable. Speaking to hundreds of crypto enthusiasts at ETHToronto, Mathis offered a refreshing point of view.
The GenesysGo founder argues that value creation for contributors is one of the most integral aspects of running successful DePIN networks. Mathis highlighted that, while DePIN promises to reward contributors as decentralized software scales, “it’s shocking how much of that is running on AWS and Google Cloud.”
For example, over 50% of Ethereum node operators are hosted on AWS, Hetzner, and OVH servers.
Reiterating the importance of wealth creation for contributors, Mathis contends “what DePIN really is, is an attempt to take one of the most centralized layers of the stack and decentralize that amongst the people such that they start to participate in the growth and success of these models.”
GenesysGo’s ShdwDrive is one such example. The decentralized storage solution empowers users to earn $SHDW tokens by providing unused mobile storage to a distributed network, directly generating income from a device that lives in their pocket.
Reflecting the ideal DePIN model proposed by Mathis, network contributors benefit from the growth and success of the platform. The GenesysGo founder reinforced this notion, opining “DePIN is only as inevitable as the value that participants in the network get from it… if DePIN solves that, DePIN is inevitable.”
POOR PERFORMANCE “ONE OF THE BIGGEST FAILINGS OF DePIN”
On paper, the benefits of DePINs are obvious. However, in practice, these platforms often sacrifice performance and scalability in favor of decentralization. While this aids in value creation for contributors and increases security, it actually hamstrings performance and growth.
DePIN is often considered the natural evolution of the sharing economy, which delivered iconic businesses like Uber and Airbnb.
Drawing parallels between the pearls of the sharing economy and emerging DePIN projects, Mathis illustrated that “Uber became highly successful, not just because you’re able to share in pieces of things you don’t use everyday.. but because it worked well, it was fast, it was easy to use.”
Mathis argues that for DePIN projects to truly take off, they need to rival the performance standards set by centralized industry leaders. Referencing his experience with GenesysGo, the founder posits “in our case, our first principle [is] decentralized storage needs to be as fast, as secure, as stable, and perform every bit as well as a traditional Web2 cloud service.”
ABSTRACTION IS KEY
The Web3 user experience has long been considered one of the industry’s biggest obstacles to adoption. The complexities of wallet management and security have discouraged newcomers to space for over a decade, and continue to repel potential users today.
Mathis insists that abstracting the end-user experience away from blockchain technology is key to the success of the industry. Reinforcing this belief, the founder affirms “Your end user shouldn’t know that they’re interacting with Web3”
Looking towards the future, Mathis considers DePIN regulation will present a significant obstacle to the sector’s growth. However, instead of taking a chagrined approach to future regulatory concerns, the GenesysGo founder suggests that DePIN projects need to take on some responsibility.

After causing significant congestion issues across the Solana network in April, the ORE mining protocol returns to “revive the long lost dream of crypto as p2p electronic cash.”
Love it or hate it, Proof-of-Work crypto mining is returning to Solana. ORE, the wildly popular mining protocol that besieged the Solana blockchain in April is returning, promising a revised and more egalitarian approach to distribution.
With ORE price climbing over 100% in anticipation of the relaunch, the question needs to be asked: What will be different this time around?
ORE v2: WHAT'S DIFFERENT?
Pseudonymous founder HardHatChad launched ORE as an experimental Solana hackathon project in April 2024. Leveraging a Proof-of-Work mining concept on a high throughput Proof-of-Stake blockchain, HardHatChad aimed to create a truly fair token launch.
In a matter of days, the Ore protocol objectively became the most used program in the Solana ecosystem at the time, generating over 12M transactions between 124k+ users.
However, due to flaws within the project’s model and network congestion issues caused by the ORE mining, HardHatChad opted to pause mining to focus on redevelopment. Despite the chaos, OreSupply took home the grand prize at the Solana Renaissance Hackathon.
After months of development work behind the scenes, HardHatChad has teased the relaunch of ORE v2. Courtesy of several key changes, the passionate founder renews his mission to “revive the long lost dream of crypto as p2p electronic cash.”
HERE'S WHAT TO EXPECT:
• No Admin Variables - The revised protocol will rely on open-source algorithms to manage all program variables, such as mining difficulty.
• Mining Multipliers - Staking ORE tokens gives miners a rewards multiplier of up to 100%, based on their proportional stake. This only applies to miners submitting valid hashes and cannot be abused through flash-loans.
• Fixed supply - Like Bitcoin, ORE has a fixed maximum supply of 21M. One ORE will be issued per minute, projecting a fully emitted supply by 2064.
• Sybil Protection - In the relaunched protocol, miners will maximize rewards by submitting the most difficult hash possible. This is expected to discourage sybil miners and mitigate network congestion.
• Accessible Hash Function - A new hash function closes the performance gap between high-end hardware and consumer devices, lowering ORE mining’s barrier to entry.
• Client Software - OreSupply has revamped its software to improve performance and reliability. HardHatChad also promised to launch client software that will be compatible with the Solana Saga mobile device.
• Immutable Contract - Once mining dynamics have stabilized, the OreSupply contract will be permanently frozen, meaning that no further changes can be implemented to its code.
The OreSupply team hopes that by implementing these changes, the protocol will be better suited to wider adoption within the Solana ecosystem.

July 19th’s devastating IT outage left hundreds of businesses across the world scrambling to provide basic services. A software bug that was prematurely pushed to production wrought havoc across the globe, temporarily shutting down banks, airlines, and essential services.
Cryptocurrency may not have been a solution to this particular problem, but the event still exposed the vulnerabilities and flaws of our reliance on centralized infrastructure.
What makes DePINs more resilient than centralized alternatives and why is Solana so well-equipped to support decentralized infrastructure?
SECURITY THROUGH DECENTRALIZATION
One of the fundamental staples of the cryptocurrency industry, decentralization is key to avoiding singular points of failure. Drawing resources and infrastructure from distributed sources makes any entity vastly more robust.
Despite detractors arguing that the network is dangerously centralized, Solana has proven its critics wrong, establishing itself as one of the industry’s most decentralized blockchains. A common and admittedly simplified measure of network decentralization, Solana boasts a Nakamoto Coefficient that surpasses the bulk of its rivals.
However, where Solana gains its edge is through the development of alternative validator clients. Barring Ethereum, most Layer One blockchains rely on one sole validator client. Ironically, if a software bug was pushed to production, as was the case with the CrowdStrike outage, these blockchains could also fall victim to a complete network outage.
On the other hand, Solana is on track to eliminate this vulnerability. The network currently hosts two independent validator clients. Solana’s network resilience will go to new heights with the deployment of Jump Crypto’s Firedancer client, which completely rewrites the network into a different programming language from scratch, eliminating the risk of one bug affecting various clients.
Not only is Solana becoming more decentralized by the day, but the network’s thriving DePIN sector is witnessing unrivaled adoption.
SOLANA LEADS REAL WORLD DePIN ADOPTION
Crypto’s DePIN sector is vague. Despite deploying zero infrastructure and offering no proof-of-concept, hundreds of different projects are categorized as DePIN protocols by various blockchain data sites.
For example, CoinMarketCap’s DePIN category features over 140 different DePIN projects but includes Layer 1 blockchains like Internet Computer (ICP). DePinScan, a research tool operated by IoTeX, lists 262 DePin cryptocurrency projects. Other resources, like EV3’s depin.ninja platform, suggests over 300 DePIN protocols are being built on Ethereum alone.
With such ambiguity surrounding what defines a DePIN network, how can we track the manner in which DePINs are actually being deployed and used?
Physical Infrastructure. Among hundreds of supposed DePIN projects, which protocols can individuals see first-hand through real-world devices or Proof-of-Concept?
According to EV3, Solana-based projects dominate their competitors in terms of active node deployments, with projects like Helium, Hivemapper, and Natix each operating hundreds of thousands of devices.
Courtesy of its unmatched scalability and performance, the Solana network is a natural choice for businesses looking to deploy DePINs. In the current blockchain landscape, no other blockchain is adequately equipped to support the data transmission of hundreds of thousands of devices without suffering debilitating latency issues and gas spikes.
Additionally, Solana benefits from the widespread use of mobile devices. Solana Saga, the network’s Web 3 phone, sold out following a collaboration with BONK and the second iteration has been preordered over 140,000 times.
With the future of the internet expected to be driven by mobile-first usage, the Solana network is ideally placed to establish itself as the leading chain for DePIN protocols.

Holdium is planning to airdrop 5% of its total supply to customers who pre-order Solana Mobile's "Chapter 2" smartphones. This follows the trend of leveraging airdrops to add value to pre-orders, a tactic successfully employed with Solana Mobile's first smartphone, the Saga, which saw a significant boost in sales thanks to bundled airdrops of meme coins like $BONK and $MEW .
The "Chapter 2" smartphone, expected to ship in 2025, has already garnered over 100,000 pre-orders. This strong demand is partly due to the anticipation of similar airdrops and the lower price point of $450 compared to the Saga's.
These airdrops not only enhance the perceived value of the phone but also serve as a powerful marketing tool within Web3 community.
