and onion=... You just say bitcoind How to create an outbound connection to a TOR network. To be able to reach yourself on a TOR network, you need something called a “hidden service,” which corresponds to the IP address on the TOR network. TOR is quite unusual in that it does not require such an address to make an outbound connection. It is necessary simply to receive an inbound connection.

For more information about how to create hidden services, see the Bitcoin Core Tor documentation. However, there are about two ways.

  • give bitcoind Permission to ask tor Creates a hidden service (by opening the control port).
  • Set it tor Create a hidden service for yourself and transfer it yourself bitcoindyou need to tell them what that hidden service address is (and therefore can be advertised to other peers).

Amber International announced on July 3 that it will deploy new capital into Sui, XRP, and BNB as the next phase of its $100 million Crypto Ecosystem Reserve, expanding its treasury, which already holds Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Solana.

The company funded the expansion with a $25.5 million private placement, pricing American Depositary Shares at $10.45, a 5% discount to the three-day volume-weighted average.

Amber International issued 12,200,915 Class A ordinary shares, equal to 2,440,183 ADSs, to investors that include Pantera Capital, CMAG Funds, Mile Green, Choco Up, and Kingkey Financial International. 

Management stated that the proceeds will be allocated entirely to the reserve, which supports on-chain liquidity, structured products, and grants tied to the six target networks.

Placement mechanics and reserve mandate

CEO Wayne Huo said the reserve allows Amber Premium, the firm’s operating brand, to align with developers and liquidity venues on each blockchain while offering institutional clients broader hedging tools.

The program will publish periodic on-chain attestations that detail wallet balances and transfer history. 

Amber already trades and lends Bitcoin and Ethereum on OTC desks. The additional assets extend those services to participants seeking diversification beyond the two largest digital assets.

Management expects the reserve to reach full deployment over several quarters, with allocation decisions based on network activity metrics and client demand patterns.

Market reaction

Amber International’s AMBR shares closed 6.7% lower at $8.60 on Nasdaq the same day the placement terms were released, leaving the company with roughly $779 million in equity value.

The share move occurred as digital asset equities, such as Riot Platforms’ and Coinbase’s, fell broadly and did not demonstrate a direct link to the reserve announcement.

Yet, the decline in Amber shares was sharp, crashing 15% within 30 minutes after opening and one hour after the announcement that it would add other altcoins to the treasury by diluting equity.

DFZ Labs, the parent company of the Deadfellaz NFT collection, has teased that a “smol” new addition is on its way for their ecosystem.

Psych, Director of DFZ Labs, took to the DFZ Labs Discord to share that “something smol is brewing”, alongside a tweet that included a .gif of a full-body Deadfellaz character with changing hairstyles. This follows an image shared on May 17, depicting a similar character with multiple expressions and poses.

Though full details on the nature of this project have yet to be shared, this would mark another addition to the Deadfellaz ecosystem – which has recently seen the debut of their Coldlink tool and Ghost Machine NFT collection, and will soon see the debut of their Death Touch TCG and Wallhugger games.

What is Deadfellaz?

Deadfellaz is a 10,000-piece zombie-themed NFT avatar collection which debuted on Ethereum in August 2021.

A highly-popular collection during the peak of the NFT market in late 2021, its success led to the foundation of DFZ Labs – a company led by founders Betty and Psych – to build and grow the Deadfellaz brand.

February 2022 saw the debut of Deadfrenz – a 13,000-piece canine-based companion collection to Deadfellaz. This was followed by headline partnerships with names such as Wrangler, Steve Aoki‘s Dim Mak, and DraftKings.

2025 has been a big year for Deadfellaz so far. March 2025 saw the introduction of Coldlink – a tool which allows hot wallets, social media handles and other identifiers to be securely used to prove ownership of assets in a cold wallet. June 2025 saw the arrival of Ghost Machine – a 50,000-piece hyper-pop art collection on ApeChain, with all NFTs minted for just $1 USD.

Alongside this “smol” Deadfellaz project, the team are know to be working on Death Touch – an upcoming Web3 trading card game, and Wallhugger – a Roblox-based PvP horror title.

What could these “smol” Deadfellaz be?

As exact details have yet to be shared regarding this “smol” teaser, it’s left up to the community to theorise on what DFZ Labs are working on.

Combining the May 17 image with this “smol” teaser, it would appear that Deadfellaz are working on some sort of avatar system, where users will be able to customise their own Deadfellaz characters. This could allow holders to use perks from their Deadfellaz or Deadfrenz NFTs on their avatars – similar to Doodles 2 – or allow players to customise their appearance across DFZ Labs upcoming suite of games.

This is all theory-crafting so far. The possibilities are endless – but whatever the end result is, it looks like it will be a boon for the Deadfellaz ecosystem.
