The Spaces covered a lively community update led by host Donny (Big O) with guest Cross from X Project, focusing on tangible product progress and ecosystem strategy. Donny announced the MVP of a Telegram wallet scanner (free for XCEO and ShibElon on Ethereum and Solana) and teased a fuller multi-chain scanner in development. Cross unveiled X Pad’s new version with X Shot’s routing engine now embedded (faster than Uniswap, 0.5% fee, referral/leaderboard/revenue-sharing, and developer APIs), plus a deployed Base factory awaiting a coordinated go-to-market. He detailed X Shot’s EVM trading terminal (multi-wallet split buys, PnL/sharing, referral/leaderboards) and a relaunch plan for the native ecosystem token with staking and fee-based revenue sharing. On token economics, tool fees will auto-buy back the new native token, with remaining revenues for development/marketing and discretionary XCEO buys; XCEO’s own 1% tax funds its buybacks/marketing. Cross reaffirmed XCEO as ecosystem mascot with upside tied to potential Elon interactions, outlined a prospective royalties.com partnership on Base, and a multichain roadmap (ETH, Base live; BNB, Arbitrum, Blast, Sonic next). The session closed with brief market headlines and a community call to action.

X Project Spaces Recap: ExPad v2 live, X Shot multichain momentum, new native token plan, and xCEO strategy

Participants and context

  • Host: Donny (aka “Big O”), running a family-friendly, humor-laced crypto Spaces focused on X Project.
  • Guest: Cross (X Project lead; frequently referred to as “Cross”), providing ecosystem updates across ExPad, X Shot/X Chart, X Color, and token strategy.
  • Community voices/handles mentioned: Cam, KP/KP7, Jacko, Mike (1981), DQ, Ricardo, Mr. Bagzy (Bagsy), Paulo, Andres, Aaron, Tony, Crypto Plumbero, Geeks, came69, Mathman, Heathcote, and others.

The session mixed light humor, project announcements, and a Q&A on roadmap, utilities, and token economics.

Format and agenda highlights

  • Donny’s regular segments (humor, top lists).
  • Product/tooling update: Wallet scanner MVP.
  • Main feature: Cross on the X Project ecosystem—ExPad v2, X Shot/X Chart, native token relaunch, xCEO positioning, multichain expansion, and partnerships.
  • Market/news roundup and community Q&A.

Humor segment: “Top 15 places X Project will NOT hold its holders’ party” (selected highlights)

Framed as a family-friendly “dad-joke” countdown of places to avoid when ExPad’s token hits a billion:

  • Amsterdam: Everyone’s too relaxed (including risk management).
  • Bangkok & Pattaya, Thailand: Party too strong/no crypto accepted (comic effect); Thailand appears twice.
  • Istanbul: One side bullish, the other sold (Europe/Asia split pun).
  • Sydney: Time difference—pump over on arrival.
  • Moscow: Volatility feels “too real.”
  • Hong Kong: Space limited (like profits).
  • Paris & Berlin: Not impressed until mainstream; endless explanations.
  • London: Party ends early; fees keep coming.
  • Mykonos: Beautiful views, terrible exit strategy.
  • Silicon Valley: Someone will try to turn it into a startup.
  • Wall Street: Paperwork before the first drink.
  • Bonus: Not at “your ex’s house” (position closed at a loss).

Purpose: lighten the mood and engage the community, segueing into product news.

Tooling update (Donny): Wallet Scanner MVP available

  • Access: Telegram bot “bows_soul_bot”.
  • Current scope: MVP supports two assets—xCEO and Shib Elon—on Ethereum and Solana.
  • Functions:
    • Scan: Returns wallet P&L and an info card for supported tokens.
    • Share: Produces a minimal, shareable card (e.g., “I am 5x/2x/1x/–x”), color-coded (green for positive, red for negative).
  • Roadmap (in progress):
    • Full scanner will cover three chains entirely (not just single tokens). On two chains it already includes the favored launchpad; second chain support will auto-extend when the launchpad goes live. A third chain will add its two top launchpads.
    • Features to include historical prices, USD cost tracking, average buy price, upgraded visuals for P&L cards, and a full USD-based P&L.
    • Status: Phase 3 of 4 completed for the wallet; V1 “almost done.”

Note: This is Donny’s tool, separate from ExPad/X Shot, but relevant to X Project users.

Ecosystem update (Cross)

Market context and xCEO thesis

  • Elon effect reaffirmed: Recent “Asteroid” token run (to ~$200M MC) during low volume demonstrates Elon Musk’s outsized influence on-chain and on X.
  • xCEO setup: Organic floor-building continues (Cross cited ~$1–2M “floor” potential as an example). Historically, Elon interactions can yield 10–20x impulses depending on the action (comment/retweet/etc.).
    • If the next interaction occurs with a higher base, immediate surges to ~$15–20M are plausible, attracting momentum traders who observed Asteroid.
    • Community stance: Promote diamond hands, healthy accumulation, and patient positioning to capitalize on inflection events.
  • Whales: The same capital that helped push Coco to $100M (without Elon) is monitoring xCEO. Some have bought; others await deeper liquidity/volume. Cross is arranging meetings to bring them in.

ExPad v2 is live

  • Feedback: Strongly positive from users, partners, and investors on quality and completeness.
  • Deep integration with X Shot trading:
    • Migrated tokens (e.g., xCEO and others on Uniswap) now trade via X Shot’s router/buy-bot under the hood (not just a Uniswap widget).
    • Performance: Faster than Uniswap, with a 0.5% fee structure.
  • Trader-centric features (live or prepared):
    • Rewards and revenue sharing for traders.
    • Leaderboard and referrals.
    • Developer ecosystem: New dev section with API docs and keys so third parties can build (e.g., custom buy-bots, scanners, bonding tools). Mathman and Donny are already giving feedback; docs are being refined.
  • Multichain readiness (Base): A Base “factory” has been successfully deployed. UI toggle is currently hidden by design.
    • Base is fast/cheap (Solana-like UX, but ETH-based). Many users prefer ETH over SOL; this helps adoption.
    • GTM approach: Timing the Base launch to demand cycles; no rush. All infrastructure is ready, focus is on effective go-to-market and user acquisition.

X Chart/X Shot: the EVM trading terminal

  • X Chart has fully integrated ExPad tokens; users can buy ExPad-launched tokens from within X Chart.
  • Chains:
    • Live: Ethereum mainnet and Base.
    • Next: BNB, Arbitrum, Blast, Sonic (with BNB/Arbitrum near-term due to minimal differences).
  • Feature set:
    • Trading bot integrated at a Maestro/Titan-class speed/UX.
    • Multi-wallet execution: Define multiple wallets, split a buy across wallets (configurable distributions for more organic on-chain patterns).
    • P&L tracking and shareables.
    • Referral and leaderboard.
  • Strategy: Tightening integration between ExPad and X Shot (the “terminal”) to deliver an end-to-end, faster-than-Uniswap trading experience for EVM tokens.

New native token to replace the former “EXCESS”

  • Purpose: Restore and enhance prior utility model with better execution and clarity.
  • Utilities/incentives (planned):
    • Tiered benefits for holders (e.g., reduced or zero fees on X Shot transactions, access to X Color, other perks).
    • Staking with revenue sharing fed by ecosystem fees.
  • Buybacks and fee flows:
    • Fees from ExPad, X Shot, X Color automatically buy back the new native token.
    • Allocation of bought-back tokens: burn, treasury hold, or direct to staking pool. Cross aims to revive the prior strategy that channels buybacks into the staking pool so stakers receive passive income.
  • Migration and UX:
    • A new X Project website will precede token launch, featuring clear documentation, project overviews, roadmap, and a staking portal.
    • Tooling to migrate/swap old token holdings to the new contract directly from the site and begin staking seamlessly.
  • Launch posture: Build first (site, staking, docs), then launch with stability and clarity. Expect elevated interest and speculation given clearer utility alignment across the ecosystem.

xCEO positioning and buyback policy

  • Role: xCEO is the mascot of the X ecosystem—both an Elon-aligned meme and a flagship of ExPad.
  • Buybacks:
    • xCEO has its own 1% tax; that pool supports xCEO buybacks and marketing.
    • Ecosystem tool fees (ExPad/X Shot/X Color) are earmarked for the new native token’s automatic buybacks.
    • However, manual xCEO buybacks from ecosystem revenues may be executed as a marketing lever (since xCEO is a core brand asset).
    • Principle clarified by Cross: Keep xCEO’s own taxes for xCEO; dedicate utility-tool fees to the utility token—while allowing selective xCEO support for brand/marketing impact.

X Color access policy (under review)

  • Prior requirement (e.g., holding 0.05% of supply) is being reconsidered.
  • Rationale: A percentage-of-supply gate becomes impractical as market caps grow (e.g., at $50M, 0.5% equates to prohibitive cost).
  • Direction: Replace with a fixed-amount model that scales and remains accessible as the ecosystem expands. Details to be announced.

Meme family posture

  • xCEO: Ecosystem and Elon mascot; current priority and external-facing meme brand.
  • Others (community family): Coco (Solana OG; exploring revival later), Rage Guy, Shib Elon.
  • Communication strategy: To avoid public confusion, externally focus on tokens launched via ExPad (like xCEO). Family meme plans are internal/community discussions and are later-stage roadmap items.

Partnerships: Royalties.com (status and plan)

  • Background: Earlier discussions on launching via ExPad; the partner faced a tough learning curve in the Solana/memecoin trenches and is recalibrating.
  • Current track: They plan to launch “small talents” on their own domain while working through internal issues.
  • ExPad–Base opportunity: A joint launch for a major talent (millions of followers) on ExPad’s Base deployment is under discussion (tech and business). Potentially May timeframe, dependent on readiness.
    • Integration: Their site could embed X Project’s trading tech; fee-sharing models possible.
    • Cadence: They aim to launch a new talent weekly; ExPad could become a regular, high-visibility venue.
    • Success factors discussed: Supply control (with transparent safety rationale), building trust, and ensuring a win–win structure.

Multichain and market strategy

  • Cross notes:
    • Vitalik’s recent reminder: Ethereum won’t become “fast like Solana” (12s block-time physics). Layer-2s (e.g., Base) are the path to fast/cheap UX in ETH’s trust perimeter.
    • Bridges and UX are improving (e.g., faster cross-chain liquidity via providers like Hop/Across and others), narrowing gaps between chains.
    • A “Base season” is plausible; X Project is prepared to move when demand hits.
    • Vision: X Shot as a chain-agnostic EVM trading terminal—“see a token, buy with X Shot,” across chains (including considering networks like XRP later, plus Blast, Sonic, etc.).
  • Go-to-market principles:
    • Best marketing is a “runner” (i.e., a high-performing token like xCEO driving attention). ExPad is linked in xCEO web funnels to capture users.
    • Next priorities: Secure quality launches, build user volume, then layer paid pushes (videos, articles, targeted KOLs) once organic momentum provides ROI.

Team & operations

  • Gemboy: Still part of the team, but not full-time due to prior market conditions and downtime in ExPad’s activity. He remains active in discussions and contributes experience; a new project manager is in place to accelerate execution.
  • ExPad stability: Ongoing QA; minor bugs/glitches are being addressed. The current version is stable and improving.

Community Q&A (highlights)

  • Is X Shot already powering ExPad trades for migrated tokens?
    • Yes. For tokens that have migrated to Uniswap, trading on ExPad routes via X Shot’s engine.
  • What remains before advertising ExPad more aggressively?
    • Final stability tests (days, not weeks), then lean on a “runner” (xCEO) and attract more quality launches; paid marketing will follow organic growth.
  • “def1” contract endings as brand identity?
    • Yes. X Project will emphasize the pattern that core contracts end with “def1” as part of brand trust and recognition.
  • xCEO buybacks and ecosystem fee allocation?
    • Ecosystem tool fees auto-buy back the new native token. xCEO’s 1% tax funds xCEO buybacks/marketing. Manual ecosystem-funded xCEO buys may occur as a marketing lever since xCEO is the mascot.
  • Staking/passive income for the new token?
    • Yes. A new staking pool will share ecosystem revenues; buybacks of the native token may be routed to the pool for stakers. Holding the new token will unlock fee reductions and features (e.g., X Color access) across tools.
  • X Color’s 0.05% gate?
    • Under review; moving to a fixed-amount model to remain scalable and accessible.
  • Royalties.com launches on ExPad?
    • Still in discussion. They’ll launch smaller acts on their platform short term; a major talent launch on ExPad Base remains on the table with active BD and tech scoping.
  • Make xCEO the “CEO” of X Project (in name)?
    • Cross supports the conceptually symbolic role; asked the community member to DM specifics for how to materialize/brand it.

Market/news roundup (Donny)

  • Prices (at time of pull): BTC above 78k, ETH above 2,300, SOL ~86; total crypto market cap ~2.6T.
  • Regulatory headlines:
    • UK actions against suspected illegal P2P crypto trading (raids at eight London addresses; cease-and-desists).
    • US perpetual futures: Momentum toward formal approval; Kraken leading, with Robinhood and Gemini positioning.
  • Polymarket snapshots:
    • BTC price in 2026: Crowd skews to >80k.
    • Fed decisions (Mar–Jun): ~92% odds on pause.
    • Largest company by end of April: Nvidia at ~99% odds.
  • Alt roundup:
    • xCEO up ~142% on the week; ~60,630 holders; liquidity ~80k; market cap ~629k (as cited by Donny at the time). View: Repriced higher, held the move, benefitting from Elon angle—bullish mix for a microcap.
  • Market structure indicators:
    • Fear & Greed around 60 (borderline neutral/greed), Altcoin Season Index ~34, RSI ~48.8, BTC dominance ~60.1%, ETH gas very low.

Roadmap and next steps (from Cross)

  • Near-term (days to short weeks):
    • Complete ExPad/X Shot stability testing.
    • Continue X Chart integration improvements and add chains (BNB, Arbitrum, then Blast, Sonic).
    • Advance whales onboarding for xCEO; maintain accumulation and healthy market structure.
  • Shortly after:
    • New X Project website with clear docs and staking UX.
    • Migration tooling for former token holders to swap into the new native token and stake.
    • Launch of the new native token with utilities (fee reductions, X Color access) and revenue-sharing staking.
  • Opportunistic:
    • Time the Base ExPad go-to-market; explore Royalties.com joint launch on Base for high-profile talent.
    • Continue internal planning for legacy/community memes (Coco, Rage Guy, Shib Elon) without confusing public messaging.

Closing messages

  • Cross emphasized persistence and execution: after years of building, the team now has the skills and cadence to deliver faster and better. Creativity and productivity are back; the ecosystem is more coherent than ever.
  • Community call-to-action: Support xCEO awareness; prepare for ExPad/Base phases; expect multi-chain reach and improved tooling across ExPad, X Shot/X Chart, and X Color.
  • Donny lauded Cross’s relentlessness and urged the community to shill responsibly and help push xCEO over the next milestones, with the expectation of reconvening next week for further updates.
