8Blocks joins DAOS Hub🔥

It’s a space where Web3 teams build side by side and turn ideas into working systems. We bring strategy, product, and tokenomics, so participation becomes measurable. And growth – predictable.

DAOS Hub is where collaboration doesn’t just sound good. It works.

If bitcoin drops below $100k, don’t call it a crash. Call it cardio🔥

That line isn’t psychological. It’s survival.

Above it, miners breathe. Below it, they burn cash at $0.13 per kWh – about $100k to make one BTC.

At $90K, the farms go quiet, the hashrate thins, ETF flows hold their breath. The question isn’t if the cycle’s over. It’s whether this reset builds the next one.

So is the four-year rhythm over?
Maybe. Or maybe this is just bitcoin doing what it always does – shaking out the unfit before running again.

Because in this market, pain isn’t punishment. It’s training.

Altcoin ETFs sound loud. But the market stays quiet.

The SEC cleared the path for altcoin-based spot funds, and for a moment, it looked like a new wave was coming. But the first ETFs tied to Hedera and Litecoin barely made a move. Institutional money didn’t flow as expected. And that silence says more than any headline.

The products exist. The excitement doesn’t.

💡Liquidity, reputation and scale still sit with Bitcoin, where confidence has been earned over the years.

For projects, that’s the signal. The age of big promises has ended. Now it’s about working models. Investors are no longer buying stories. They’re studying structures – capitalization, governance, and real token economics.

And once again, the market reminds everyone of a simple rule: value isn’t invented, it’s proven.

⚡️Coinbase gives token sales a second wind

For seven years, the market went without public sales for U.S. retail investors. After the chaos of the 2017-2018 ICO era and the loss of trust that followed, the format seemed dead. Now Coinbase is returning to the space that once overheated to show how it can be done differently.

The first sale is set for November 17-22, featuring Monad’s MON token.

For the industry, this isn’t just another product. It’s a test: can transparency and trust be rebuilt where hype once ruled? Coinbase is betting on structure, predictability, and participation instead of speed and insider access.

Here’s how it works:

⚙️ The “fill-from-bottom” algorithm favors the wider community. Smaller bids are filled first, larger ones only after, reducing concentration among funds and whales.

⏳ The request window stays open for several days. Anyone can place their bid anytime within that period, and once it closes, the algorithm decides the final allocation.

No race to click first. Participation becomes a process, not a sprint.

💎 Real supporters come first. Those who instantly sell after listing lose priority in future sales. The system rewards involvement, not impatience.

Coinbase is doing what the market has needed for years: turning token sales from a game of chance into a system of rules.

If the model works, the market won’t just gain new tools. It’ll gain new standards.

Web3 has become the new architecture for startups. Not everyone’s realized it yet 🌐

Ignoring Web3 today is like ignoring the internet in 2000. It didn’t feel urgent back then. People thought they could wait.
They couldn’t.

Now the same shift is happening again. Tokenization and DeFi have rewritten the rules of funding. Startups no longer need to wait for venture approval. They can build their own economies around people, not funds.

In Web3, users stop being an audience. They become owners. Tokens, NFTs, DAOs – tools that turn participation into partnership.

When people hold a piece of something, they act differently.

They build with you. Investors and partners already see it. The market now expects startups to experiment with Web3 just like it once expected them to go mobile. The difference is, this time it’s not optional. It’s the new norm.

🚀 Those who start now will set the standard. And not because they’re first, but because they’ll realize something simple: Web3 isn’t a risk. It’s a new kind of resilience.

🎯 If the token’s the answer, what was the question?

Before you launch a token, don’t rush to write a white paper just to check the box. Ask yourself one thing – why does your project need it?

The goal sets everything in motion: the economy, the mechanics, even how your community will grow.

▪️If the goal is growth, your token should attract new users and keep them around.
▪️If it’s monetization, the economics need to make sense. Investors should see potential, not risk.
▪️If it’s engagement, the token should give real influence, not just badges.

Simple as that: every goal has its own economy. And the earlier you define it, the less fixing you’ll have to do later.

If Web3 gave us freedom, what will Web4 bring? 🤔

When AI learned to write code and blockchain started to understand data, it became clear that Web3 wasn’t the final chapter.

Now everyone’s talking about Web4.

Some call it the smart internet. Others see it as a balance between humans and algorithms. Either way, the network is no longer just infrastructure. It’s starting to think.

Every era of the web has been about power.
Web3 put it in the hands of people.
Web4 gives it to the algorithm.

As data begins to interact and systems start making their own choices, the internet is turning into an economy with a mind of its own.

📖 Read the full piece on our Medium – we break down where Web3 ends, where Web4 begins, and how it’s reshaping crypto.

We share new insights there every week, so don’t miss out.

What will drive Web3 startups in 2026 🚀

2026 is when Web3 stops chasing noise and starts building value. The market grows up, and you can feel how the priorities shift.

There are three vectors already shaping what comes next:

1️⃣AI + Web3
AI stops living outside the system and starts working inside it. You see it in autonomous agents, in smart contracts that don’t just store rules but act, in models that learn directly on-chain.

All of this moved past the experimental stage. What we see now are the first working prototypes of a new economy.

2️⃣RWA and new infrastructure
Real assets move on-chain: property, infrastructure, commodities. The physical economy keeps connecting to the decentralized one, and that bridge gets stronger month after month.


3️⃣UX at scale
Modular chains, better wallets, shared standards… Web3 finally starts feeling simple enough for real adoption. And these aren’t just trends. They’re the moves that help teams break ahead.

💡Here’s the point for startups: pick one vector and build a small product around it. The next cycle won’t reward the ones who wait for the wave. It rewards the ones who create it.

💎 Telegram has officially made TON its native chain. And for games, that changes everything.

The crypto layer inside Telegram now runs on a single network: the built-in wallet, TON Space, Mini Apps. Telegram has already passed a billion active users, and TON gets direct access to all of them.

Here’s what changes.

If your product relies on Telegram for distribution, TON becomes the only real option. Other chains can’t enter Mini Apps or plug into Telegram’s crypto features. That’s why products like Notcoin and Hamster Kombat took off. It’s the Telegram effect: huge traffic, instant onboarding, and a frictionless entry point.

⚠️ But there’s another side. TON’s economic layer is still forming. It lacks experts, tested models, solid templates, and reliable auditors. And the hype around simple tap-games often hides that.

❓ So the question for any team is simple: where will you grow faster?

If your distribution depends on Telegram, TON gives you the shortest path to a user. If you need liquidity, mature tooling or battle-tested practices, Solana, Ethereum L2 or BNB Chain might be a better fit.

Everything after that depends on what you’re building.
