During this time, I often wonder whether the operations we perform on the chain are truly what we want to do.
Many times it feels like we are being pushed by the process: Receiving tasks, clicking confirm, switching chains, competing for qualifications. Over time, the awareness of 'what do I really want to do' has become increasingly blurred.
It was in this state that I began to engage with #Anoma .
It is not a chain in the traditional sense, but rather a protocol system designed around 'intention'. It is not about submitting transactions, but about expressing your true purpose—making the occurrence of transactions feel more like genuine coordination between people, rather than a compromise with machine language.
To be honest, it has a high entry barrier, and the ecosystem is still in its early stages.
But I quite like its quality of 'not rushing to provide answers, but rather taking the time to ask serious questions'.
In an era where standard answers are rampant, I have a particular preference for projects that ask serious questions.
What you clicked into is not just a game, but also your long-lost 'sense of participation' and 'imagination'.
Do you remember the last time, what year was it when you waited for a blockchain game to launch?
For me, Lumiterra is the kind of game that made me 'wait seriously'.
I remember it was in December 2023 when Lumiterra started its beta testing. At that time, the community enthusiasm was particularly high; an invitation code could create a market. I also brought people in, lurked in groups, and grabbed qualifications, just like going back to those years when I fought for game test codes in my childhood, a feeling of 'waiting + expectation' has returned after a long absence.
Now the testing is open, anyone can jump in directly, but the memory of 'waiting for a blockchain game' has always remained.
Anoma is not just a privacy protocol, it is more like a 'self-correcting' Web3.
Once upon a time, when we talked about Web3, we talked about freedom, decentralization, and individual sovereignty.
But slowly, we have been led away from our original intentions by habits:
Public transparency of addresses has become the norm, wallet behaviors are categorized, interactions are scored, and every step on the chain feels like 'quantifying whether you deserve to be rewarded'.
Privacy has become a luxury; Sovereignty is packaged as 'interaction incentives'; Even anonymity has become a sort of 'speculative label'.
#Anoma 's emergence is not just about 'protecting data', but seems to remind us:
US President Donald Trump on May 15 said in Doha, Qatar that he spoke to Apple Inc. CEO Tim Cook and told him there’s no need to build factories in India unless it’s to serve that market specifically.
“Told Apple CEO Tim Cook we’re not interested in you building in India, they can take care of themselves,” said Trump in Doha, reported Bloomberg.
As a result of their discussion, Trump said Apple will be “upping their production in the United States”.
He also said that India has offered to drop all tariffs on US.
“India has offered us a deal where basically they are willing to literally charge us no tariff,” said Trump at an event with business leaders in Qatar.
Apple aims to make most of its iPhones sold in the United States at factories in India by the end of 2026, and is speeding up those plans to navigate potentially higher tariffs in China, its main manufacturing base, a source told Reuters last month.
This can largely avoid the studio from creating a large number of accounts.

Have you encountered a certification prompt when trading Alpha?
Previously, I was slowly interacting with 1000U at a time, but today I was too tired and tried 3000U at once, and surprisingly found that the wear was even less than with 1000U at a time. Then I tried 5000U and found even less wear. After that, I processed two transactions of 5000U, and it popped up asking me to verify, requiring not only biometric verification but also KYC verification!
Is there any way to avoid the verification? #币安Alpha上新

I personally feel that Trump and Powell are performing a two-person show, playing a big game of chess, and Musk's departure indicates something.
Recently, Trump's statements never stray from the themes of a strong economy, soaring stock prices, and urging Powell to lower interest rates.
Having actually experienced the pandemic aftermath, the global economy has been severely impacted, countries are regaining vitality, while the hawkish approach during Biden's era, with dollar interest rate hikes and inciting wars among multiple nations, has shifted the crisis of economic recession onto the whole world, further solidifying the dollar's position. This is what capital wants to see because, in such an environment, they can short other countries' economies and penetrate them more severely. However, the East has not allowed the RMB to follow the dollar's interest rate hikes, maintaining deflation to resist the Americans and preventing a financial crisis.
When Trump took office, he continued the tariff policies from his first term, but the East learned from the previous lesson and prepared adequately. Powell was nominated during Trump's first term. If he can sit in the chair of the Federal Reserve Chairman, Trump deserves some credit. However, Trump's failure to be re-elected is somewhat related to Powell's slower pace. Trump attributed part of his failure to Powell's inaction.
Thus, in his second term, he declared he would make Powell resign. It is well known that the Federal Reserve is independent and not subject to government control, and the president does not have the power to remove the Federal Reserve Chairman. So, from initially wanting Powell to resign to now acknowledging his capabilities, but currently expressing a desire for interest rate cuts, it seems like a discordant relationship, but it feels like a performance.
During Biden's era, there were not frequent mentions of the economy, stock market, or commentary on the Federal Reserve's actions, while Trump frequently made statements. To put it bluntly, in this term, he wants to benefit his own family. From pushing coins in the primary market to back-and-forth operations on tariffs, as well as changes in attitude towards the Federal Reserve, hasn't the whole BQ and the US stock market experienced significant fluctuations? Before taking office, he attended a cryptocurrency market meeting, supporting the cryptocurrency market, but the market crashed upon his taking office. According to some news, Trump had 3 billion in assets before taking office, now 30 billion, just from the Trump coin alone he earned 10 billion US dollars.
So, it can be said: it feels like these two are playing a big game of chess, and coupled with the delay of the European tariff expiration by 90 days on July 8, will there be a catastrophic situation if there are no interest rate cuts in June, leading to a crash? (Continue in the comments) #美联储何时降息?
