Responding to criticism that MegaETH shut down incentives and did "nothing," the author says the team deliberately went quiet to focus on first-party product building, restructuring and acquiring market-structure expertise. ZokuTrade is highlighted as a key vertical, with potential protocol-level changes to improve liquidity and trading primitives. Heavy incentive spending was deemed unwise for the org in 2026. Ongoing work includes a Chainlink sequencer-embedded oracle, Proximity Markets, USDm integrations, MOSS v2 and CLI. Ecosystem items cited include brix's Turkish Lira carry trade, mnstr's record volumes, stomp's sub-$0.01 onchain games, and upcoming betas for MNX and Rocket.
