This festive functionality is just a whimsical example of gated's versatility and ability to be customized in the way the page's owner wants.
How it works: Select an NFT you own in settings and have it raining NFTs :)

Zelenskyy on Yandex bot purge: "when our strikes reached Yandex’s data centers, it suddenly became a little easier to breathe on many social media platforms. A lot of people noticed it. There was less hate, less division, and fewer provocations.
Because there were fewer bots."
1. He’s lying like he always does
2. He should focus on actual cost of living instead of this short term bandaid bullshit
3. This is going to add to our already insane deficit that he loves to grow endlessly without checks just like he bankrupted his casino
4. This is all tax payer money so we’re actually paying for it.
5. If you still believe him and everything he says then you’re in a cult because he’s always been and always will be a con artist.
If Republicans win the House of Representatives and the Senate in the 2026 Midterm Elections, I’m going to give all adult citizens in the United States of America, $5,000! Thank you for your attention to this matter, and I look forward to signing those checks!

This $5,000 “Trump Dividend” promise was first made in Sept. 2026. Similar prior DOGE and tariff check pledges have not been paid out. It would cost ~$1.2 trillion and require congressional approval.

Not a lot of things make me upset like this, but between me and my wife, we’re on our fourth MacBook Air in the past two years. My M5 only lasted about 5 months.
All of them had charging issues. @Apple WTF happened to your product? I’m sorry but this is not what I expect from a $2K product.
Just paid for MicroCenter’s extra warranty because I can’t trust your product quality anymore.
Slowly and surely figuring out the SEO game. Took a project from 56th to 8th on Google and also starting to get mentioned by LLMs. Still a long ways to go but its a good feeling. Oh and this took 6 months of consistent work. Still learning.

Data from the first-ever bitcoin bond is in:
- Demand side sold out! Every institutional partner maxed out their capacity allocation. 21Shares, Nakamoto (through UTXO), and HashKey among early partners.
- 230 BTC enrolled in bonds. They start earning 3% BTC yield starting tomorrow! Weekly automated payments in BTC.
- New STX proportional to 230 BTC (so approx 11.5 BTC worth of STX got locked for 6 months for the bonds). We saw 20M additional STX locked from the last cycle. More STX locked is generally a healthy sign for network growth and holders.
- Next bond in roughly 4 weeks (around Oct 10). We’ll likely release larger bitcoin capacity for bond 2. This bond was limited in size to test out institutional flows on the live product. Several great learnings from working with institutional partners to help polish the UX for the next bond.
We believe this yield can become a “fed rate” equivalent for bitcoin. A $100B-$200B potential market for BTC that can earn yield in a self-custodial way.
More importantly, such a native yielding product sends flows into onchain bitcoin capital markets on Stacks. We already saw this with bond 1, where DeFi apps like Zest and pools like Fast Pool and Xverse saw increased traffic.
The value accrual to STX dynamics is now live, and proof is onchain with locked STX.
Now we scale it with capital flows. Forward!
I keep wanting to hire more bots. What actually helped was writing a contract for the ones I already have. One row each. The job, what fires it, what it can read, whether it can send or only draft, a daily cap, where it leaves proof, who has to sign off, and when it has to stop. Got the idea from a @ericosiu piece. My problem was never too few bots, it was bots with no rule set.
For agents been testing hermes, looks feature packed but it's overly complicated. Also been testing openmausbot and as close as I can get to grok bots, the end result is just not the same. Responses are longer. Takes way more trips to do the same task. Somehow grok bots just gets it. Only downside with @botsgrok is cost.
