January 21st — Per GMGN market data, a new meme coin named “memes” on the BSC network plummeted to $4 million briefly, then rebounded to $7.6 million. Its 24-hour trading volume has hit $47.4 million; previously, the coin’s market cap had surged above $27.8 million. The coin’s rally was linked to an earlier tweet from the official White House account: “The winning will continue. The deportations will continue.

Vitalik argues truly valuable social tools should help users find high-quality information, rational perspectives, and consensus, rather than maximizing short-term engagement. He stressed this goal isn’t a “simple trick”: a key starting point is more competition, and decentralization is the core path to that—via a shared data layer letting anyone build their own client. He revealed that since the start of this year, he’s actively returned to decentralized social networking, doing all posting and reading through the multi-client tool Firefly.social, which covers protocols like X, Lens, Farcaster, and Bluesky. Vitalik also criticized
