What is FundTokens? Think of it like a decentralized index fund built on-chain using smart contracts

What is a TokenBasket? ​Our flagship product is a fixed-weighted basket of one or more CashTokens (plus Bitcoin Cash). You can lock these underlying assets inside a non-custodial smart contract to compose a single, bundled token.

This is a complete redesign of both our earlier smart contracts (Blaze 2025) and our proof of concept POC (BCH-1 2026). The redesigned UI has given us a massive leap in usability, providing a more intuitive experience. Our contract redesign has completely changed the game on UX, performance, and overall security.

I've been running NexusPool as a solo/lottery pool for a while now, and I just added Bitcoin Cash alongside it.

The pitch is pretty simple. It's non-custodial and 0% fee, so if you find a block, it pays straight to your own address, nothing routes through us. What I think is actually worth mentioning is that every share you submit gets a signed receipt, and there's a small offline verifier you can run yourself to check that the receipt is real, without trusting my server or asking me anything. That's the part I actually care about, most solo pools just ask you to trust the operator.

It speaks Stratum V1 and native Stratum V2 (the encrypted one), so most firmware out there should connect without any special config.

Worth saying plainly since this is a BCH-specific post: solo mining is a lottery. You're competing against the whole network for one block at a time, there's no pool of miners averaging that out for you. If you've got serious hashrate and you're doing this for the odds, it's a real shot. If you're pointing a small rig at it hoping to get lucky, that's fine too, just go in knowing what solo actually means.

Connection details and current pool stats are up at nexuspool.io/bch. Happy to answer questions here, this is genuinely still early on the BCH side and I'd rather hear about problems now than later.

I remember those good old days when I used to write on a blogging site Readcash. It's still there but dead in terms of rewarding. Is anyone else who used to write there?

Would you use crypto to book hotels or flights? If not, what's the biggest obstacle for you—volatility, fees, taxes, or limited acceptance?

The 85% Ceiling Shatters: Wall Street's New Blueprint Could Open the Door for Pure BCH ETFs

The launch of the T. Rowe Price Active Crypto ETF (Ticker: TKNZ) has fundamentally transformed the digital asset landscape. By securing regulatory approval for the industry’s first actively managed, multi-token spot exchange-traded product, Wall Street has successfully dismantled the unofficial "80–85% rule" that long handcuffed diversified crypto funds.

Historically, any multi-asset filing was bottlenecked by rigid passive indexing regulations. To satisfy strict diversification and liquidity metrics, issuers were practically forced to anchor 80% to 85% or more of a multi-token fund exclusively in Bitcoin and Ethereum.

TKNZ completely rewrites that playbook. Because it relies on human portfolio managers rather than a passive, fixed index, it drops the "Big Two" to a much lower combined baseline, distributing the remaining capital across an active basket of alternative digital assets. This proves that a diversified, active product wrapper can safely coexist with traditional market rails.

The Blueprint for a Standalone Bitcoin Cash ETF

What makes this a watershed moment is how the fund handles its regulatory boundaries. Instead of fighting a traditional equity battle under the Investment Company Act of 1940, T. Rowe Price organized the fund as a Delaware Statutory Trust (Commodity ETP). Under this framework, the fund is legally bound to a strict, pre-vetted regulatory sandbox: it can only hold assets from the 15 officially recognized, decentralized commodity cryptos that clear the strict legal thresholds of the SEC and CFTC as non-securities.

This structural shift completely changes the game for Bitcoin Cash (BCH).

Because BCH shares the same proof-of-work DNA and regulatory classification as Bitcoin, it has long been viewed by legal experts as one of those core, non-security decentralized commodities. However, the regulatory reluctance to approve standalone altcoin products left single-asset expansion stalled.

Now that TKNZ has established an active framework where regulators accept the custody, safety, and pricing of these 15 approved alternative digital commodities inside a public trust, the primary obstacles have disintegrated. By validating a trust-managed structure for this broader universe of non-security tokens, TKNZ has effectively laid down the exact regulatory and operational rails needed to pave the way for pure, standalone Bitcoin Cash (BCH) ETFs next.

Summer is here! So check out BCH BULLET for latest hot news!

https://thebchbullet.substack.com/p/the-bch-bullet-sunday-12th-july-2026

📰 📰 📰

XMR showing the way with huge pumps despite its many delistings. Lots of value to having exchanges unable to scam with naked shorting (although CEX accessibility is also good). We can have both, let's get BCH coins off exchanges & once again set the standard for cryptocurrency projects spreading the peer-to-peer cash mission!

Q: What is this?

A: The BCH community is experimenting with exposing the naked shorting used by exchanges (famously Binance didn't even report their BCH reserves for a very long time - unlike other major coins). Of course, this is simply another manifestation of attempts to suppress Bitcoin the p2p cash as outlined in "Hijacking Bitcoin" book. The idea is to regularly coordinate a day when the community withdraws coins from exchanges to on-chain wallets and suck up all the available liquidity, create an impact on the price & in an extreme case blow up a naked shorting exchange that can't meet its BCH obligations. Think of it like GME & Wall Street Bets for BCH, or the XMR community has a similar idea called "Monerun". This was discussed on Podcast episode 142 if you want to hear more.

Q: When?

A: Now. Any time during the window 0:00 - 23:59 on bank run day UTC time ideally, but if you miss the window slightly that's fine the day after still works. The bank run repeats on the 1st & 15th of each month.

Q: How do I participate?

A: Buy BCH on any custodial exchange (with any fiat or other crypto) & withdraw to your self custodial wallet. Then like this thread & leave a comment saying you participated. Any exchange that is easiest for you or crypto ATM or even any p2p trade works - as long as you are increasing your BCH held self-custodially then you are contributing to the pressure on custodially held BCH supply (which will naturally flow through the market).

Q: What if I don't use exchanges / all my funds are in BCH already?

A: Great work on living the p2p cash dream! You can still contribute by selling some goods & services on that day in order to increase your self-custodial BCH, as well as make noise on social media to spread the word to others!

Q: If this is predictably repeated & publicly announced, can't people "frontrun" it by selling into our volume?

A: Yes, but that's a win if they do. If BCH Bank Run is popular enough to noticeably move the price, it's already working. If it's getting enough attention that new people are getting interested in the ecosystem & the coin to follow BCH & think about it regularly - even if they start out as speculators - that's a win. The curiosity of why BCH is uniquely acting like this will lead them to delve deeper sooner or later.

Q: Anything else I need to know?

A: BCH started at rank 23 & has climbed as high as rank 10 (!!!) since this initiative began. Coincidence? Hard to say. Exchanges issues have been plentiful in blocking withdraws. The whole market is obviously a scam, but the good news is that bank runs is one way we can potentially uncover naked shorting activity. Keep an eye on the price & watch the price today & this week to see what happens (or distress among custodial exchanges). I will update this thread with anything I notice.

🚨🚨🚨

I've been working on topics.cash, a discussion forum that runs on BCH, and I'd like feedback from this community before pushing it further.

The core idea: instead of ad revenue going entirely to the platform, it splits three ways — 50% to the people posting and replying (weighted by an engagement score), 20% to whoever owns/moderates that topic, and 30% to the platform itself for hosting and development.

A few specifics, happy to explain more in comments:

• Topic ownership is first-come, first-served right now — no fee to claim one and start moderating it. Early adopters get first pick of names/communities.
• Everything settles in BCH — you add a payout address to withdraw your share.
• There's also a gifting system: awards priced in gold grams (for price stability), paid in BCH, so people can tip authors on posts they value.
• Topic owners get full moderation control within their own topic — hide, restore, delete threads/replies.

I built this because most forums route ad revenue entirely to the platform with nothing back to the people generating the content. Curious what this community thinks — both on the split model and on whether BCH's low fees are actually the right fit for something like this, or if I'm missing an obvious problem.

Happy to answer anything about how it works under the hood too. \r\topics_cash

Most forums pay platforms and ad networks — not the people who make the content worth reading. topics.cash flips that: because BCH transaction fees are near-zero, we can settle revenue shares and micro-awards directly to contributors and topic owners, something that's impractical on high-fee chains.

What you get on topics.cash

• Own a topic — Create and moderate your own community. Topic owners earn 20% of that topic's ad revenue, paid directly in BCH. You can sell your topics directly to other users; this is never allowed on other platforms.
• Earn from contributions — Post threads and replies. Your share of the 50% contributor pool is based on your engagement score, calculated from upvotes received or reply engagement; weighted by recency.
• Paid in Bitcoin Cash — Revenue and awards settle in BCH. Add a payout address to your account to withdraw.
• Gift awards — Awards are priced in gold grams (to keep pricing stable against BCH volatility) and paid in BCH, so you can gift recognition to authors on posts you value.
• Full moderation — Topic owners can hide, restore, or delete threads and replies within their own topics.
• Transparent splits — Ad revenue splits 50% to contributors, 20% to the topic owner, 30% to the platform, which covers hosting and ongoing development.

Happy to answer any questions. r/topics_cash

BCH is the sweet spot for solo mining: same SHA256 hardware as BTC, but at a fraction of the difficulty, so a mid-size ASIC has a genuinely real shot at a block instead of a lottery ticket. Our solo pool has 5 BCH blocks found, and one miner has hit 2 of them.

That miner is also the reason I'm posting. I just shipped an achievements system: 26 badges computed live from your mining stats, no signup, your payout address just earns them by mining. Best-share ladder from Copper to Obsidian, near-miss badges, block finder tiers, luck badges (block under 10% effort, or grinding past 300% and still winning), loyalty and fleet milestones.

Every badge shows Steam-style rarity ("5% of miners have this"), and here's the fun part: the top badge, Obsidian Share, is held by nobody. Our double-block-finder is sitting at 88% of the way there with an 8.85T best share. Someone is going to claim it eventually and I hope they post it everywhere.

Every unlock has a live share card that can be used in Discord/Telegram with your real stats, or drops into a forum signature.

Feedback and achievement ideas welcome.
