Taτsu@TatsuEcosystemSunday Brief – Nov 01, 2026 Brief Summary TatsuOS now accepts USDC and USDT alongside ethereum:0x92f419fb7a750aed295b0ddf536276bf5a40124f for plans and AI credits. Purchases are credited automatically once the payment confirms on-chain, and ethereum:0x92f419fb7a750aed295b0ddf536276bf5a40124f keeps its discount. Every flow works on testnet, and the first version of TatsuOS moves to mainnet in the next couple of days. On ChipForge, Quest 2 is finalized and starts tomorrow: miners design a complete AI chip, scored on performance, chip area and correctness, with power to be added in a later update.

Each token has its own payment route, and ethereum:0x92f419fb7a750aed295b0ddf536276bf5a40124f payments still get a discount.

Everything is running on testnet, and every flow is working well, from buying plans and AI credits to the account update after payment. Over the next couple of days we'll move it to mainnet and release the first version of TatsuOS. Chipforge Chip Design Team - Quest 2 is finalized and starts tomorrow.
