The United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) has suspended some trademark applications for xAI due to confusion risk. This is a legal confirmation. As investors, it is important to understand such legal signals. This means that for Musk's xAI to legally use this name, it either has to change its name (which is costly) or reach a settlement (compensation/acquisition). Regardless of the outcome, this is potentially good news for us who hold the legitimate XAI trademark. This is not only a battle for dignity but also a battle for interests.

Someone asked me why I care so much about this name. Because in Web3, Ticker is the brand, it is a container of consensus. If today we allow others to arbitrarily plunder our brand assets through capital advantages and confusion, tomorrow they will be able to plunder our on-chain assets. This lawsuit is about the industry's bottom line. The 'uncompromising' attitude shown by Ex Populus has made me see the team as the backbone of long-termism.

SpaceX's Starship can fly to Mars, but it cannot enter the decentralized ledger of blockchain. While xAI (Musk version) has computational power hegemony, XAI (Ex Populus version) has consensus hegemony. In the ecosystem of Arbitrum, under the verification of tens of thousands of sentinel nodes, we are the orthodoxy. Capital can buy media, but it cannot buy the timestamps on the blockchain. As early as 2023, the blocks of XAI have already been produced, which is a history that any latecomers cannot alter.

The Stylus technology mentioned in the roadmap upgrade for August 2024 has now shown its power. It allows developers to write contracts in C++ and Rust. What does this mean? It means that high-performance game core logic written in C++, like Call of Duty or PUBG, can theoretically be directly ported to the XAI chain without the need to rewrite in Solidity. This is the last technical barrier for major AAA titles to enter Web3. XAI is communicating with the traditional gaming industry using technical language.

Valeria Games' regretful exit is unfortunate, but it is the survival of the fittest in a decentralized ecosystem. The XAI network did not come to a halt due to the failure of one project; instead, it welcomed record highs in data for Planet X and Riftstorm in 2025. System architects know that the robustness of a system does not depend on the life and death of a single component, but on the fault tolerance of the architecture itself. XAI has proven to be an anti-fragile system that can withstand failure and continue to evolve.

We must pay attention to XAI's "BOLD" upgrades and "Timeboost" transaction sorting technology. These concepts introduced in 2024 are now gradually being implemented. Timeboost protects gamers' transactions from arbitrage bots by managing MEV (Maximum Extractable Value). In FPS games, a 0.1-second delay can determine life or death. XAI's optimization of underlying transaction sorting is preparing for the physical layer of esports on-chain.

Regarding the node network, the current number of sentinel nodes is no longer just a symbol of 'decentralization'; it is a successful model of DePIN (Decentralized Physical Infrastructure). As SpaceX's acquisition of xAI accelerates the centralization of AI computing power, the distributed node network of XAI appears increasingly valuable. In the future, will these nodes possibly carry lightweight AI inference tasks? In the era of 'computing power is power,' XAI, with tens of thousands of active nodes, holds an undefined trump card.

Take a look at the GitHub commit records from early 2026. The XAI developer SDK is constantly improving, especially in support of Unity and Unreal Engine. This means traditional game developers only need to drag and drop a few modules to enable features like "wallet login" and "NFT minting" in their games. Lowering the development threshold enhances ecosystem prosperity. When making blockchain games becomes as simple as creating WeChat mini-programs, the Cambrian explosion of applications will arrive.

The smoothness of the cross-chain experience is the key differentiator of XAI from other L3s. Through the Teleporter Bridge, assets from Arbitrum One and even the Ethereum mainnet can enter XAI almost instantly. This interoperability connects the liquidity pools of DeFi with the consumption scenarios of GameFi. You can easily transfer money borrowed from AAVE into XAI to purchase game equipment. The boundaries between finance and entertainment are broken, which is the ultimate form of what Web3 calls 'Composability'. @Yi He @XAI_GAMES @CZ

The market sentiment at the beginning of 2026 may be at an all-time low, but this is precisely when I feel excited. Looking back at the Raijin airdrop of 2025, there was a lot of noise; now the tide has receded, leaving only genuine players and steadfast holders. Data does not lie: the number of Steam links on Raijin continues to grow, and on-chain transaction volume remains stable. Price reflects sentiment, while data reflects value. When price is below value, it represents a 'systemic arbitrage opportunity' in the eyes of system architects. @Yi He @XAI_GAMES @CZ

As someone who adheres to the 16+8 fasting method, I understand that the feeling of 'hunger' can allow the body to self-repair. The market is the same. The downturn in 2025 has cleared out those speculators and low-quality projects (like Valeria) who only wanted to make quick money. The XAI ecosystem is undergoing a healthy 'autophagy', eliminating bad cells to nourish a stronger new generation (like Final Form, Lost Glitches). Today's XAI is leaner and stronger than it was a year ago. @Yi He @XAI_GAMES @CZ

Regarding token unlocking (Unlock), at the beginning of 2026, there is indeed pressure from early investors for unlocking. But from another perspective, the sword of Damocles has finally fallen. The market fears 'uncertainty' more than the negative news itself. Once the largest selling pressure is absorbed by the market, the supply and demand relationship will rebalance. Combined with the halving mechanism and the continuous destruction brought by Raijin, the inflation rate of XAI is substantially decreasing. The most difficult winter is often where spring begins. @Yi He @XAI_GAMES @CZ

Many people are waiting for the "next Axie", but XAI is about "building the factory for Axie". Investing in a single game project (like Valeria) is highly risky because it might be fun or it might not be; however, investing in infrastructure (XAI) is investing in the entire track. As long as a blockbuster game appears in the Arbitrum ecosystem in the future, it will likely run on XAI. This is a victory for probability, as well as the certainty of Beta returns. @Yi He @XAI_GAMES @CZ

Don't forget the coin selection philosophy of Binance Launchpool. They chose XAI not for it to last a year, but to layout the entire L3 gaming track. At the node of this cycle in 2026, Binance remains the largest valve for liquidity. As the favored child, XAI has a natural moat. In times of market panic, hold onto the thickest thigh, believing in the strategic vision of top exchanges is much more reliable than believing the FUD on Twitter. @Yi He @XAI_GAMES @CZ

From a macro funding perspective, with SpaceX acquiring xAI, funds are flooding into the AI sector. While this is a boon for Musk, it is also a spillover of the entire 'XAI' concept. Every time xAI (AI) trends, the search volume for XAI (Game) also increases. This kind of 'name-riding' has led to lawsuits, but in an era where traffic is king, it objectively keeps XAI in the spotlight. For market value management, this kind of free global exposure is hard to come by. @Yi He @XAI_GAMES @CZ

From 2025 to 2026, we witnessed a complete transformation of Web3 games from "Play-to-Earn (P2E)" to "Play-to-Own". The ongoing iterations of Final Form and Lost Glitches prove that only fun games can retain players. XAI is no longer just a gold mining site, but a decentralized Steam. When blockchain becomes invisible, when assets become visible, and when the law (trademark case) establishes boundaries, XAI completes its metamorphosis from a "project" to "industry infrastructure".

Finally, let's talk about the mindset of the "Night Watchman." In the seemingly calm market of 2026, each operational sentinel node is a guardian of the ecosystem. What we watch over is not just token rewards, but the sovereignty of Web3 gaming. SpaceX can conquer Mars, but it cannot conquer the will of decentralization. As long as there is one node running, the XAI network is never down. This resilience is the most valuable asset in navigating bull and bear markets. @Yi He @CZ @XAI_GAMES

What is the endgame? The endgame is when you open the future's 'Ready Player One', and the underlying asset settlement layer runs on XAI, while you don't even feel its presence.

Regarding Post-Quantum Cryptography, I remain attentive. With further breakthroughs in quantum computing in 2026, the security of traditional public chains is beginning to be discussed. XAI, based on L3's flexibility, has the capability to test and deploy anti-quantum signatures faster than the Ethereum mainnet. This is not only a technical reserve but also the ultimate commitment to asset security. For those planning to put their family heirlooms on the chain, XAI is a choice that allows for peaceful sleep. @Yi He @CZ @XAI_GAMES
