If you’ve used the Toncoin & Token Bridge, take note.
The bridge at bridge-v3.ton.org will permanently shut down on September 1. After that, transfers will no longer be possible.
If you hold: • Wrapped TON on Ethereum/BNB Chain → bridge it back to $TON • jUSDT, jUSDC, jWBTC or other j-tokens on $TON → bridge them back to Ethereum
💡 Transfer percentage fees are currently waived.
Don’t wait until the deadline. Check your wallets and withdraw any affected assets before Sept. 1.
$ZEC ’s rally has dramatically changed the economics of Zcash mining.
According to estimates reported by TheEnergyMag, an Antminer Z15 Pro mining Zcash currently generates around $727.30 in gross revenue per MWh of electricity.
That means Zcash is currently generating roughly 4.5× more gross revenue per MWh than Bitcoin mining with an S23 Pro — and around 3.3× the estimated revenue of AI/HPC computing.
Important: this is gross revenue, not net profit. Electricity prices, hardware costs, maintenance, hosting and other operating expenses are not included.
Still, the gap is remarkable — and shows just how dramatically the recent rise in $ZEC has changed mining economics. ⚡
Grayscale’s Krista Lynch appeared on Bloomberg TV to discuss the fundamentals behind $ZEC — including its 21 million supply cap, Proof-of-Work security, zero-knowledge technology and the choice between shielded and transparent transactions.
But the bigger story is the exposure.
Zcash is being discussed on one of the world's most influential financial networks — in front of traditional investors.
And with Grayscale actively promoting its Zcash investment product, $ZEC is increasingly entering conversations far beyond the crypto-native privacy community.
Different gates, still the same horizon. STON.fi's cross-chain flight is about to take off. The first travelers won't board empty-handed — keep an eye on the gate.
$ZEC surged to nearly $888, reaching its highest level since 2018.
At the same time, Grayscale is targeting August 25 for its Zcash product to begin trading on NYSE Arca under the ticker $ZCSH, subject to regulatory conditions.
Privacy is becoming one of crypto’s hottest narratives again — and Zcash is leading the charge. 🛡
🚀 ~$150K Omniston Cross-Chain Swap Volume in One Day
Stonfiers! 150,000 kilometers is enough to travel around Earth about 3.5 times. On August 25, the swap volume processed by our cross-chain protocol Omniston reached ~$150K.
Huge thanks to everyone swapping, testing routes, and pushing volume higher, you made this happen.
🛡 ZCASH 101: SHIELDED vs. TRANSPARENT TRANSACTIONS
One of the most misunderstood things about Zcash is this: Not every ZEC transaction has to be private.
Zcash gives users two fundamentally different ways to transact.
🔍 TRANSPARENT TRANSACTIONS Transparent Zcash works similarly to Bitcoin.
Transaction data is recorded publicly on the blockchain, meaning information such as addresses, transferred amounts and transaction history can be visible and analyzed.
Transparent addresses traditionally begin with “t”.
🛡 SHIELDED TRANSACTIONS Shielded Zcash uses zero-knowledge cryptography to validate transactions without publicly revealing the sensitive transaction data.
In a fully shielded transaction, the blockchain can verify that the transaction is valid without publicly exposing:
• the sender • the recipient • the amount transferred • the encrypted memo
The network can therefore enforce the monetary rules without needing to reveal the financial details of the payment.
⚡ WHY DOES ZCASH SUPPORT BOTH? Because Zcash was designed to give users choice.
Transparent transactions provide compatibility with services and exchanges that don't yet support shielded ZEC.
Shielded transactions provide financial privacy when supported by the user's wallet or service.
Modern Zcash wallets can also use Unified Addresses, allowing different Zcash receiver types to be handled through a more convenient address system.
And following the Ironwood NU6.3 upgrade, Zcash continues evolving its shielded infrastructure while preserving this fundamental idea:
Privacy should be available at the protocol level — not added as an afterthought.
Zcash doesn't simply move value.
It gives users control over how much of their financial activity becomes public.
This is a privacy token and with the way privacy is becoming important in yhe crypto space, $DUSK is really bullish and i have a strong feeling that it will send much higher than we all expected. Stay bullish and stay formed let’s see what the project has for us!
Stonfiers! This week brought new ways to access DeFi directly from Telegram, another major cross-chain connection, and a new milestone for STON.fi. Here’s the full recap.
🔥 Hot numbers first! STONfi ranks #4 among 100 TON apps by monthly financially active wallets, and #1 among all DeFi protocols on TON. Thanks for swapping, building, and growing with us!
1️⃣ WenLong brings Hyperliquid perps to Telegram. WenLong now lets users access leveraged trading on Hyperliquid directly from Telegram, with Omniston handling the cross-chain route from TON to Arbitrum behind the scenes. Building your own TON project? Explore the STON.fi SDK and Omniston docs.
2️⃣ Omniston powers smarter swaps in My Wallet. Users can now swap through My Wallet with rates checked across multiple DEXs in real time, while Omniston selects the most competitive route. The integration also brings tokenized assets such as AAPLx, NVDAx, and TSLAx to the wallet. Explore My Wallet.
3️⃣ X Layer joins STONfi’s cross-chain ecosystem. USDC and USDT0 on X Layer are now available for cross-chain swaps across TON and other supported networks. With another network connected, Omniston continues bringing more cross-chain routes into one flow. Try cross-chain swaps on STON.fi.
4️⃣ Gram Wallet is coming to Telegram: what do builders expect? We joined WenLong, Gram Store, and DTrade to look at how trading, token launches, and DeFi are already making their way into Telegram — and what the Gram Wallet launch could mean for builders. Watch the recording.
A funniest joke from traders here is setting profits per day, lmao
some of you commented it last time when i was talking about capital needed for trading. It’s actually funny because you’re putting free pressure on urself without fundamental reasons.
Not against it directly, even if i wouldn’t recommend it. just that I’m not convince it’s actually useful
Tell me, if you’re doing it, why are you putting that psychological weight on yourself ? Does it worth it ?
Because, you’ll easily be tempted to force trades, forcing setups, just bcz you want to fill a case no one force you to.
Instead of that, i think focus on risk/reward ratio is far better and simple for you. It actually helps you know which trade worth taking. Help you learn patience. And mathematically strategic.
You should not feel like you’re on a connecting flight. Some old travel habits need to be retired. New crypto routes tend to reward early travelers — stay tuned.
