Özet

The Sandbox ecosystem has integrated Corners, a new Web3 platform currently in invite-only beta. Corners enables users to create, curate, and share collections of internet content (URLs) as transferable digital assets called "Corner Coins." These assets allow communities to form around topics and gain value through curation and contributions. The platform is deeply integrated with the SAND token, which powers its economy, rewards user activity, and enables trading. Corners expands The Sandbox beyond gaming into digital culture distribution. It is built on Base (Coinbase's Layer 2) and is scheduled for a full public launch in early 2026. Early adopters can join the waitlist at corners.market.

The Sandbox ecosystem welcomes Corners, a new Web3 platform in invite-only beta that lets participants coin and gain value from Internet content

Expanding The Sandbox ecosystem, Corners is a new Web3 platform to coin, curate, and share the content of the Internet, allowing curators to gain value from collections of URLs from all corners of the Internet

The Sandbox and Animoca Brands welcome the new free-to-use curation platform, Corners, into their ecosystem. Corners has launched an invite-only beta where users can coin, create, and share collections of internet content. Users can join the waitlist at www.corners.market.

Corners allows anyone to create a “Corner Coin” – a user-created, transferrable digital asset based on a curated collection of internet links, conversations, and content. Once a corner is created, anyone can share and curate content for it, and contribute to its growth and value by adding links or new content.

The launch of Corners expands The Sandbox’s ecosystem beyond gaming, as previously announced as part of The Sandbox 3.0 rollout, and into a broader distribution network of culture while introducing new utility for the SAND token.

Robby Yung, CEO of The Sandbox, said: “Corners is a great example of how partners can help extend the utility of the SAND token and support the continued evolution of The Sandbox ecosystem beyond gaming. By enabling curators to tokenize the content they love, Corners opens meaningful new opportunities for creativity and participation. We’re pleased to support products that build on our foundation and bring more communities into The Sandbox’s wider ecosystem.”

Corners deeply integrates the SAND token as its main utility token, powering platform activity. Curators can earn rewards for their activity and curation. Additionally, a portion of the platform’s activity is used to reward Corner Coin holders with the SAND token, promoting its distribution and use within the ecosystem.

The SAND token will also become available on Base through an initial liquidity pool on Aerodrome. This expansion will make the SAND token and The Sandbox ecosystem accessible beyond Ethereum and Polygon, offering a new on-ramp for on-chain communities and making it easier to move the SAND token across the crypto ecosystem.

Ahead of the full public rollout scheduled for early 2026, Corners is releasing a comprehensive “How to build your corner” guide on www.corners.market to provide additional details on getting started, understanding market price, transferrable digital assets, and more.

Early adopters who wish to discover and create their own corner can join the waitlist at www.corners.market.

About Corners

Corners explores a new paradigm for digital interaction on the Internet. On Corners, communities form around a collection of links, and every community becomes a valued community collection. Communities form around a topic, idea, or niche, and others can trade those markets, curate content, and contribute to the growth of the corner via comments and upvotes.

Corners is launched on Base, Coinbase’s layer 2 blockchain, and supported by The Sandbox and powered by the SAND token.

In Conversation with Ray Dalio: We Are Currently in an AI Bubble, with 1% of My Portfolio in Bitcoin

Ray Dalio, founder of Bridgewater Associates, warns in an interview that the current AI boom shows classic bubble characteristics, which could lead to significant economic downturns as seen in past cycles like 1929 or 2000. He explains that speculative enthusiasm, fueled by debt and overvaluation, often precedes a crash when rising rates or taxation force asset sales, causing widespread losses and recession. Dalio also outlines his "Big Cycle" theory, describing an approximate 80-year pattern where widening wealth gaps, massive government deficits, and shifting geopolitical power (like China's rise) create internal conflict and global instability. He emphasizes that we are in a late-cycle, transitional phase where traditional powers like the US and UK face decline. For personal wealth protection, Dalio advises diversification beyond cash into assets like stocks, bonds, real estate, and particularly gold, which he prefers over Bitcoin. While he holds about 1% of his portfolio in Bitcoin as a non-printable hard asset, he views gold as more secure from technological or governmental threats. Regarding AI's impact, Dalio believes it will disproportionately benefit capital owners, worsening inequality by replacing both physical and cognitive labor. He suggests that human intuition and emotional intelligence, combined with AI, will be key for future workers. On taxation, Dalio argues that wealth taxes are impractical and risk triggering asset sell-offs, reducing productive investment. He points to the UK as a cautionary example of debt, low productivity, and political strife. Geopolitically, Dalio foresees a more regionalized world, with the US showing weakness in prolonged conflicts like with Iran, akin to past imperial declines. The ideal outcome, he suggests, is coexisting powerful blocs (e.g., Americas, China-Asia Pacific) without major war.

Daily 7.2 Trillion KRW: Foreign Capital's Record Net Buying on Friday! Wall Street Says Headwinds for Korean Stock Fund Flows Have Subsided

South Korean stock market sees a dramatic shift in fund flows. On July 31, foreign investors made a record net purchase of approximately KRW 7.2 trillion in KOSPI stocks, marking a fundamental reversal from the persistent large-scale net outflows seen in previous months. This contributed to a significant narrowing of foreign net selling in July to KRW 9.8 trillion, down sharply from KRW 48.4 trillion in June and KRW 44.5 trillion in May. Simultaneously, domestic institutional pressure eased. South Korean pension funds and asset managers turned to a net buying position in July, purchasing KRW 1.0 trillion worth of KOSPI shares, contrasting with net sales in May and June. Market volatility is expected to be dampened by new financial regulations. Effective July 31, the Financial Services Commission tightened access for retail investors to single-stock leveraged ETFs by raising the minimum cash deposit requirement. Trading volumes for these products subsequently dropped to about 50% of their monthly average. Citigroup Research maintains its year-end KOSPI target of 10,000 points. The firm cites several supportive factors: the substantial easing of headwinds from capital outflows, a robust fundamental outlook for the semiconductor sector, historically low market valuations, strong economic fundamentals, and the potential for policy support from financial authorities if needed.

Breaking! OpenAI's Next-Gen AI Solves 10 Fields Medal-Level Problems

OpenAI's next-generation AI model Astra achieves breakthroughs in 10 long-standing mathematical conjectures. The results, including constructing the first known infinite, finitely presented non-sofic group—resolving a major question since 1999—and advancing the high-dimensional sphere packing problem beyond a 46-year-old barrier, are detailed in a 249-page paper. Key proofs have been formally verified using Lean 4. The AI also refuted a rigidity conjecture by Fields Medalist Alain Connes. According to OpenAI, generating these proofs cost under $2,000. Experts describe the findings as potentially Fields Medal-worthy and a landmark moment for both mathematics and AI, showcasing the model's ability to produce profound, human-like reasoning across diverse fields like group theory, geometry, and operator algebras.

How to Make Yourself Irreplaceable by AI Forever

This article argues that the primary threat from AI is not job replacement, but remaining trapped in "wage slavery"—financial dependence on employers. The path to becoming irreplaceable is not resisting AI, but becoming an "unemployable" individual who builds their own meaningful enterprise. The author identifies five key elements for this: Agency (acting without permission), Taste (judging what's worthwhile), Persuasion, Persistence, and Iteration. The solution is to stop being a "pawn" in someone else's game. To start, you must fundamentally change your identity and environment, then engage in rapid, real-world trial and error. While both coding and creating media (content) are powerful, content is more crucial. AI can generate assets, but true value lies in subjective, human-driven content that builds trust and narrative. The actionable advice is to carve out 15 minutes to answer foundational questions: 1) Uncover your "raw material"—what you know deeply or solve effortlessly. 2) Define your contrarian perspective—what common beliefs you think are wrong. The intersection of these answers is your direction. Finally, you must launch by publishing your first core idea immediately, using the feedback to iterate and develop the skills needed for a self-directed life and career.

Thanks to Dice Rolls, Bitcoin Keys Are Stored Offline, But Not Everyone Will Do It

The article discusses using dice rolls to generate secure Bitcoin wallet seeds, providing entropy independent of potentially flawed hardware random number generators. It explains that each fair dice roll offers about 2.585 bits of entropy, with around 50 rolls needed for a standard 12-word seed phrase and 99+ recommended for higher security. This method gained attention after a vulnerability was revealed in some Coldcard hardware wallets, where a faulty firmware RNG (dating back to 2021) compromised generated keys. The analysis notes that while a dice-generated main seed was safe from this specific flaw, other Coldcard functions (like creating paper wallets, backup keys, or passwords) could still be vulnerable if they used the defective RNG. The piece argues that while dice-based entropy is technically robust, the manual process is error-prone, tedious, and unrealistic for most new users, who might make mistakes in recording or inputting rolls. It concludes that while manual entropy generation should remain an option for advanced users, the long-term goal is to develop reliable, user-friendly hardware and software that securely generates randomness without requiring specialized knowledge. Coldcard users are advised to check their firmware version and replace any secondary secrets (like paper wallet keys) created with vulnerable devices, while also considering multi-signature setups with devices from different manufacturers for added security.
