Yo fam.., this week has been packed and a busy one. Between market swings, catching up on projects, and digging into some deep research, I found myself reflecting on how fast the crypto space is moving. Every day feels like a new chapter.

And in the middle of it all, here are a few things I came across that got me genuinely excited about @tenprotocol, a privacy first Layer 2 built on OP Stack: ⬇️
🔹 Chainlink Integration – Private oracle feeds for DeFi, bridging data reliability with ZK-powered privacy.
🔹 Builders Fund ($5M) – Grants up to $500K for teams building private dApps, NFTs, and even gaming projects.
🔹 Testnet Progress – Ongoing feedback loop with devs, plus a faster prover reducing proof generation time by 30%.
🔹 Community Growth – AMAs, workshops, and rising engagement (followers up ~5% this week).

Privacy is becoming the missing piece in DeFi and L2 adoption. With Ten’s approach, we’re looking at a future where swaps, lending, and dApps can all run privately without sacrificing Ethereum’s security.

The energy around $TEN this week felt different.
Curious to see how far this momentum carries into mainnet.
