R0AR Chain Public Node Sale Surges Past $1 Million in First 72 Hours as Early Tiers Sell
R0AR, the next-generation DeFi super-app built on Optimism’s OP Stack, today announced that its highly anticipated Node Sale is off to a record-breaking start. Within the first 24 hours, Tier 1 node licenses completely sold out, followed closely by skyrocketing Tier 2 sales. Combined, the early whitelist rounds generated over $1 million in sales, setting the stage for strong momentum as the sale enters its public phase.
Tiered Pricing Rewards Early Participants
R0AR’s node license sale is structured with a tiered NFT model that rewards early participation. While all nodes deliver equal validator rewards in ETH and $1R0R, earlier tiers offer lower entry prices and higher rarity NFTs. This rarity adds lasting value beyond validator returns, granting holders unique system access, AI integrations, and exclusive platform interactions across the R0AR ecosystem.
$1R0R Token Hits All-Time High
The node sale is also fueling demand for R0AR’s native utility token, $1R0R, which recently broke out to a new all-time high of $0.0356. While nodes can be purchased in ETH, USDC, or USDT, the best way to buy is using $1R0R tokens, unlocking additional benefits and helping strengthen the token economy. $1R0R is widely available on decentralized exchanges (DEXs) and on leading centralized exchanges including BitMart and MEXC.
R0AR Wallet 2.0 Launches on iOS & Android
In parallel with the node sale, R0AR has rolled out R0AR Wallet 2.0, its next-generation crypto wallet built for self-sovereignty and privacy. Free from hidden fees, tracking, or intrusive ads, the upgraded wallet is now officially out of beta and available for download on both the Apple App Store and Google Play Store. With improved usability and security features, R0AR Wallet offers users a seamless way to store, swap, and interact across the growing R0AR ecosystem.
Community-Owned Infrastructure for the Future of DeFi
By enabling anyone to purchase and operate validator nodes, R0AR is democratizing Layer 2 infrastructure and putting ownership back into the hands of its community. This approach combines the security of Ethereum with the accessibility of community participation, aligning incentives between users, validators, and the network itself.
“We’re not just selling nodes—we’re distributing ownership of the financial internet’s infrastructure,” said Dustin Hedrick, Co-Founder & CTO of R0AR. “Our community has shown incredible demand already, and this is only the beginning of a much larger movement.”
About R0AR
R0AR is a next-generation DeFi ecosystem built on a custom Layer 2 chain using the Optimism OP Stack. It unifies self-custody, AI-powered trading, staking, NFTs, and real-world asset support into one seamless platform. Powered by the $1R0R token and governed by its community, R0AR is engineered to unlock secure, intelligent, and sovereign finance for everyone.

AI can already write songs, generate images, and even mimic voices — but it rarely feels alive. Neura, a decentralized emotional AI network, is aiming to change that. Led by a team of ex-Microsoft AI experts and engineers , the company is building emotionally intelligent AI agents designed to connect, remember, and resonate.
From Chatbots to “Presence”
Neura positions itself as more than just another chatbot provider. Its technology is designed around what it calls “empathy engines” — AI agents that remember emotional context over time, interpret tone and subtext, and adapt across cultures.
“Most AI today is brilliant but transactional,” said Pang Kevin Sai, Head of Business Development, a core contributor at Neura. “We’re focused on building systems that don’t just talk — they connect.”
The company claims its agents achieve over 91% accuracy in affect recognition and 78% retention over 90 days, suggesting that users return not just for utility, but for the feeling of being understood.
NE-YO’s Digital Twin
One of the company’s most visible experiments is with Grammy-winning artist NE-YO, who has both invested in Neura and launched his own “digital twin” powered by its Emotional AI.
Fans can interact with the NE-YO agent in real time, hearing responses in his voice and experiencing conversations that feel more personal than typical celebrity-fan interactions. Unlike traditional fan apps, the system is designed to remember past exchanges, creating a sense of continuity.
“For me, this is about connection,” NE-YO said in a statement. “If technology can help me reach fans in a more authentic way, that’s worth exploring.”
The Web3 Layer
One thing that sets Neura apart from many other AI platforms is its decentralized approach. Instead of relying on centralized servers, Neura’s architecture leans into Web3 principles of ownership, transparency, and community governance.
That means fans interacting with NE-YO’s AI presence may not just engage — they could also own digital assets tied to their experiences, blurring the line between participation and ownership. Investors argue this could transform fan engagement from passive consumption to active co-creation.
The Bigger Picture
Neura’s ambitions extend beyond entertainment. The company highlights potential applications in healthcare, where AI companions could provide emotional support for therapy and elder care, and in education, where emotionally adaptive agents could help detect and address student disengagement.
Still, challenges remain. Critics note that emotional AI is difficult to evaluate objectively, and cultural nuance is notoriously hard to encode into algorithms. Others question whether decentralization will add real value for mainstream users, or whether it risks overcomplicating adoption.
The Future of Emotional AI
Neura envisions a 2030 where emotionally intelligent, decentralized AI is a standard part of digital life. Whether that vision becomes reality will depend on user trust — something AI has historically struggled to earn.
“Emotion can’t just be a feature,” the Neura team argues. “It has to be foundational.”
For now, the company has star power, investor backing, and a bold vision for where AI is headed: not just smarter, but more human.
About Neura
Neura is a decentralized Emotional AI network designed to bring empathy, memory, and human-like presence into the digital age. Unlike conventional AI systems that focus only on transactional interactions, Neura builds emotionally intelligent AI agents that connect, remember, and resonate with people.

BitMine Crypto + Cash Holdings Exceed $8.8 billion, including 1.71 million ETH Tokens
BitMine Crypto + Cash holdings of $8.8 billion is a $2.2 billion increase from $6.6 billion reported last week
BitMine remains supported by a premier group of institutional investors including ARK’s Cathie Wood, MOZAYYX, Founders Fund, Bill Miller III, Pantera, Kraken, DCG, and Galaxy Digital to support BitMine’s goal of acquiring 5% of ETH
LAS VEGAS, Aug. 25, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — (NYSE AMERICAN: BMNR) BitMine Immersion Technologies (“BitMine” or the “Company”) today announced crypto + cash holdings exceeding $8.82 billion. As of August 24th at 5:30pm ET, the Company’s crypto holdings are comprised of 1,713,899 ETH at $4,808 per ETH (Bloomberg), 192 Bitcoin (BTC) and unencumbered cash of $562 million.
BitMine crypto holdings reigns as the #1 Ethereum treasury and #2 global treasury, behind Strategy Inc (MSTR), which owns 629,376 BTC valued at $71 billion.
BitMine remains the largest ETH treasury in the world. BitMine launched its ETH Treasury strategy on June 30th (closing on July 8th). In the ensuing six weeks, the Company has passed many key milestones.
“In the past week, BitMine increased its crypto and cash holdings by $2.2 billion to $8.8 billion (adding over 190,500 tokens from 1.52 million to 1.71 million tokens). This is the second week that BitMine has been able to raise capital from institutional investors at this pace, as we pursue the ‘alchemy of 5%’ of ETH,” said Thomas “Tom” Lee of Fundstrat, Chairman of BitMine. “At BitMine, we are leading our crypto treasury peers by the high trading liquidity of our stock.”
The GENIUS Act and SEC’s Project Crypto are as transformational to financial services in 2025 as US action on August 15, 1971 ending Bretton Woods and the USD on the gold standard 54 years ago. This 1971 event was the catalyst for the modernization of Wall Street, creating the iconic Wall Street titans and financial and payment rails of today. These proved to be better investments than gold.
“We continue to believe Ethereum is one of the biggest macro trades over the next 10-15 years,” continued Lee. “Wall Street and AI moving onto the blockchain should lead to a greater transformation of today’s financial system. And the majority of this is taking place on Ethereum.”
BitMine is now one of the most widely traded stocks in the US. According to data from Fundstrat, the stock has traded average daily dollar volume of $2.8 billion (5-day average, as of August 24, 2025), ranking #20 in the US, behind Coinbase (rank #19) and ahead of JPMorgan (rank #27) and Palo Alto Networks (rank #21) among 5,704 US-listed stocks (statista.com and Fundstrat research).

With an overwhelming 180,000 USD raised within 24 hours, ESCAPE’s Ethereum presale is in Stage 3 at $0.01752, moving toward a final stage price of $0.03236.
ESCAPE, a Web3 infrastructure token, has launched its presale on Ethereum and shared its roadmap for new blockchain tools. The project aims to make it easy to create tokens, check analytics, and give communities better visibility: all without needing complex coding or bridges.
Mission and Vision
According to the team, right now, the world of crypto can feel confusing and scattered – people often have to jump between many different apps and tools just to trade, track information, and stay safe. ESCAPE’s goal is to make things simple by creating one all-in-one platform where everything you need is in one place.
Strategy and Development
The project’s development strategy emerged from practical market experience, having initially deployed on an Ethereum Layer 2 solution where the team observed strong community demand for simplified, integrated tools. The original implementation achieved a market capitalization of 11.5 million dollars within two days, demonstrating significant market appetite for consolidated crypto trading infrastructure. Following the discontinuation of the initial Layer 2 platform, the team transitioned to Ethereum Layer 1 to ensure long-term sustainability and independence.
ESCAPE emphasizes transparency and accountability. The platform has successfully completed an audit by Hacken that also has audited known companies like Binance, verification by Coinsult, and a KYC review conducted by SolidProof ensures the team is Doxxed. The development process is tracked via an open community board.
During and after the presale, ESCAPE also offers a staking program with a sustainable 15% APY, giving early supporters a way to earn rewards. This rate was chosen carefully to ensure long-term growth and ecosystem stability.
A collaboration with PAW Chain will extend ESCAPE’s reach by enabling multichain deployment. This integration will allow token creators to launch identical contract addresses across more than 15 major blockchains, including Ethereum, Solana, Binance Smart Chain (BSC), Arbitrum, Base, and Avalanche – removing the need for bridges or wrapped tokens.
Utilities and Deliverables
The ESCAPE ecosystem, powered by the $ESCAPE token, is being rebuilt and expanded to include:
- EscapePad: a no-code token launchpad for Ethereum and future networks
- DEX Viewer: real-time charts, wallet activity, and volume analytics
- Wallet Inspector: cross-chain portfolio and transaction analysis
- Telegram Bots: customizable alerts for trades and holder milestones
- Mobile App: token deployment and monitoring on iOS and Android
- Token Visibility Tools: ecosystem-native placement features for projects
“ESCAPE is being built to simplify Web3 and restore trust through transparency,” said an ESCAPE spokesperson. “The Ethereum relaunch and future multichain expansion represent more than a rebuild – they represent a stronger foundation for creators and communities to launch and grow without limitations.”
About ESCAPE
ESCAPE is a Web3 infrastructure platform focused on token creation, analytics, and visibility across multiple blockchains. Initially launched on a Layer 2 network in early 2025, ESCAPE grew to over 800 holders and an $11.5 million market cap before migrating to Ethereum. Today, ESCAPE operates with a transparent roadmap, audited smart contracts, and a community-first approach.

OpenServ, the leading full-stack AI app-building infrastructure in Web3, today named Joey Kheireddine as Head of Blockchain. Kheireddine joins OpenServ from his former role as Head of Engineering for Eliza Labs, bringing enterprise-scale experience at the intersection of agentic AI and crypto to accelerate OpenServ’s onchain roadmap.

“I’m joining OpenServ because its versatile and scalable architecture makes agents actually useful in the real world, allowing for endless possibilities,” said Kheireddine. “My mandate is simple: ship faster, harden the stack, and make building on OpenServ the easiest path for teams launching AI-powered apps.”
Kheireddine has led engineering across category-defining Web3 and AI projects. At Eliza Labs (ElizaOS / AI16Z), he worked on the open-source token launchpad auto.fun that heavily utilized AI features —experience directly aligned with OpenServ’s agentic runtime and protocol ambitions. Prior to Eliza, he served as CTO at FLUF World (Non-Fungible Labs) and later Head of Engineering at Walker Labs, shipping large-scale consumer experiences and developer tooling under real-world load. Earlier, he contributed as a blockchain architect with FUSION. Collectively, his portfolio spans high-throughput services, developer platforms, and production-grade releases across multiple chains.
