Terraforms by Mathcastles is on-chain earth art from a dynamically generated on-chain 3D world with 9,919 NFTs on the ethereum blockchain.

Terraforms by Mathcastles is ranked #1 in terms of transaction volume at $216 million in 24 hours, but continues to decline significantly in terms of volume and number of transactions.

Meebits is a new project from Larva Labs that has 20,000 program-generated 3D characters that can be traded on Ether. Owners are allowed to use "T-pose" versions of their characters and use them in any game engine, 3D studio or virtual world.

In computer graphics, the term "volume element", or "voxel" for short, or "volume pixel", or " voxel", is used to represent a value on a rectangular grid in 3D space. As the name suggests, the voxel is the smallest unit of digital data in the three-dimensional space segmentation, voxels are used in three-dimensional imaging, scientific data and medical imaging and other fields. The smallest unit of two-dimensional space, the pixel, is a three-dimensional analog of a pixel on a two-dimensional image, and voxels are conceptually similar to pixels.

The introduction of voxel graphics is compelling in virtual environments and games, as it allows the construction of complete, interactive worlds.

Meebits ranked second with a 24-hour trading volume of $101 million.

A Nation Blocks Chips, a Giant Buys a Nuclear Power Plant: Why It's Time to Seriously Consider DeAI

**Title: Great Powers Blockade Chips, Giants Buy Nuclear Plants: Why It's Time to Seriously Consider DeAI** In May 2026, the US closed loopholes for Chinese firms to acquire advanced NVIDIA chips via overseas subsidiaries. That same month, Kenya halted a $1B geothermal data center project involving Microsoft, fearing its immense energy consumption. Meanwhile, Huawei announced mass production of its Ascend AI chip. These disparate events underscore a new reality: the competition for computing power ("compute") has escalated beyond the tech industry, becoming a geopolitical and infrastructural battleground. A new era of oligopoly is forming, with control over the AI stack—from GPU chips (NVIDIA) and cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, Google Cloud) to foundational models (OpenAI, Anthropic)—concentrating in a few Western "AI Octopus" corporations. This centralization creates systemic risks: pricing power and platform lock-in for users, infrastructure fragility, and a widening "compute divide" that threatens to marginalize nations without independent AI capacity. An "AI Iron Curtain" is deepening through export controls. In response, some nations like Saudi Arabia and the UAE are investing heavily to buy compute power, aiming to transition from oil to AI economies. The EU seeks to triple its compute capacity by 2030 to reduce dependency. However, the spending gap is vast, with four US tech giants alone planning ~$750B in AI capex for 2026. The race is increasingly constrained by energy, with AI tasks consuming up to 1000x more power than web searches, pushing firms to even acquire nuclear plants. This landscape is fueling interest in Decentralized AI (DeAI). It proposes a third way: using open protocols to coordinate a global network of idle GPUs, independent developers, and data centers, creating an AI infrastructure without a single controlling entity. Leveraging blockchain and cryptographic verification, DeAI aims to break market concentration, disperse energy demands, reduce geopolitical dependencies, and enhance transparency. While still nascent in performance and stability, DeAI's core promise is not immediate superiority but providing a crucial alternative architecture to resist monopoly, censorship, and centralized power. As specialized AI hardware costs fall and open-source models flourish, the window to build this foundation is open. The very existence of such competition serves as a vital check against the inevitable abuse of concentrated power.

Bitwise: Crypto Becomes a Contrarian Investment, Three Logics to Understand the Current Market

**Summary** Matt Hougan, Bitwise's CIO, analyzes the current crypto market through three key lenses, arguing it has shifted from a momentum-driven to a contrarian investment. **1) Crypto Becomes a Contrarian Play:** The market is weak, with major assets like Bitcoin and Ethereum down significantly. Capital has moved to hot sectors like AI, leaving crypto as an "unloved" asset class. This transforms crypto investing from trend-following to a test of patience and fundamental analysis. Investors now favor projects with solid fundamentals (e.g., Hyperliquid) over speculative ones. **2) Regulatory Overhang:** The uncertain fate of the U.S. CLARITY Act, a major crypto regulatory framework, is a key headwind. With its passage in 2024 seen as far from guaranteed (estimates range from 30-55%), institutional capital remains on the sidelines, choosing less risky alternatives like AI stocks. The market needs clarity—whether the bill passes or fails—more than any specific outcome to move decisively. **3) Capital Rotates to New Fundamentals:** This cycle differs from past bear markets where money fled to Bitcoin. Now, capital seeks smaller assets with strong use cases. While major cryptos fell in May 2024, tokens like Hyperliquid (+72%), Zcash (+50%), and XLM (+44%) rallied on their specific fundamentals. This rotation confirms the new contrarian, fundamentals-driven logic and signals the bear market may be in its later stages. **Conclusion:** Short-term pressure persists due to regulatory uncertainty and competition from AI narratives. Investing in crypto now requires a contrarian mindset—acting against the crowd and focusing on fundamental value. Patience and targeting high-quality projects based on their merits are essential for capturing long-term gains.
