Dog (Bitcoin) is a fully decentralized memecoin on the Bitcoin blockchain, backed by a community dedicated to onboarding millions of people to Bitcoin.  Dog is secured by the Bitcoin blockchain and exists on Bitcoin L1, marking a significant innovation compared to Bitcoin with just BTC. Dog is a Bitcoin Runes token with a minimal on-chain footprint, native to Bitcoin, and stored in UTXOs, just like Bitcoin.   What is the project about?  Dog does not do any paid promotion and is fully decentralized just like Bitcoin. Every influencer who chooses to post about Dog either received the airdrop or bought on secondary. Dog leverages the CC0 license to ensure that Dog is not owned by any single entity but rather by everyone. This had lead to the "DOG Army" independently creating art, apps, lotteries, plushies, websites, podcast, magazines, X account, IRL meetups, clothing lines, PFP collections, Telegram groups, and TikTok/Instagram about Dog.  What makes your project unique?  Dog was airdropped in the fairest memecoin launch ever. In early 2024, the Bitcoin Ordinals ecosystem came together in a full volunteer initiative that rewarded early adopters of the Ordinals Protocol. There was no team allocation, and 100% of the supply was airdropped for free. The airdrop algorithm favored neither whales nor influencers; it was determined by the community and made open-source for maximum transparency.

Dog (Bitcoin)

Discussion centers on DOG as a Bitcoin-native Runes meme coin, with holders promoting dip-buying and speculating that it could benefit from a Bitcoin rally or renewed interest in Runes. Others warn of thin liquidity, weak volume and price declines, and question the promotional hype and exchange access.

General Fusion's 1 keV Plasma Compression

  


VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Oct.  08, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- General Fusion Group Ltd. (NASDAQ: GFUZ) ("General Fusion" or the "Company") has achieved a world-first compressional plasma heating result with its large-scale Lawson Machine 26 ("LM26") demonstration, a key milestone on its path to commercialize fusion energy. Using Magnetized Target Fusion ("MTF"), the Company has reached electron temperatures exceeding 12 million degrees Celsius, more than 1 keV, measured with both Thomson scattering and absolute extreme ultraviolet ("AXUV") diagnostics, and accompanied by meaningful ion heating. This world-first result for General Fusion's practical approach to fusion marks a major step forward on the Company’s plan to deliver reliable baseload, economical clean power from fusion energy.
  
The gold-standard Thomson scattering result, measured in collaboration with the UK Atomic Energy Authority ("UKAEA"), is detailed in a joint release issued today by the two organizations and a technical paper co-authored by UKAEA that is being concurrently posted on General Fusion's website and submitted for peer review. The Company's AXUV temperature measurement and ion heating results are detailed in a separate technical paper, also available on General Fusion's website and submitted for peer review.
  
The combined results provide further confidence in the Company’s core MTF technology principles and achieve the first of three key technical milestones for LM26. Its next major milestone on its path to commercial power: compressional heating to 10 keV. Planned upgrades to LM26 are now underway for this next milestone.
  
Path to Commercialization
  
As a technology, General Fusion’s MTF aims to achieve fusion in a practical and economical way, avoiding superconducting magnets and high-powered lasers, and using a liquid metal wall which enables the use of existing materials and, ultimately, durable machines. It is designed to solve significant long-standing barriers to commercializing fusion energy at a time when demand for reliable, scalable electricity is surging, and nations around the world are racing to bring fusion power to the grid.
  
General Fusion's LM26 program was designed to reach three key technical milestones on the path to a first-of-a-kind fusion plant in the next decade. Upgrades to the LM26 machine are now underway to support higher plasma compression ratios required to achieve the second milestone of 10 keV. From there, the program will advance toward its third milestone, the Lawson criterion, which is the combination of temperature, density, and energy confinement time required for net fusion energy in the plasma. Additionally, the Company is preparing to start its commercial systems program to advance key systems and components for a commercial plant. This step-by-step approach is designed to de-risk the path to practical fusion power and support the Company's goal to begin operating a first-of-a-kind plant around 2035.
  
Key Technical Highlights
  
Using an industry-recognized, gold-standard Thomson scattering diagnostic, General Fusion measured electron temperatures of approximately 1.1 keV, or 12.6 million degrees Celsius, just prior to peak compression, a result measured with UKAEA and detailed in a paper co-authored by General Fusion and UKAEA.
In addition, the Company's AXUV diagnostic data closely aligned with the Thomson scattering heating trend and measured electron temperatures of approximately 1.2 keV, or 13.7 million degrees Celsius, during peak compression, a deeper point at which Thomson scattering measurement is not available.
During compression, the Company also observed ion heating to approximately 0.46 keV, up to a twofold increase above starting ion temperature. Ion temperature is inferred through both a measurement of neutron yield and plasma density profile and through time-dependent reconstruction of diagnostic data.
Plasma temperature, density, and magnetic field all increased as expected for a stable plasma under compression, providing further confidence in the Company’s core MTF technology principles and its next key technical milestone: compressional heating to 10 keV.
  
A World-First for Practical Fusion Technology
  
Only a few fusion companies have achieved the key milestone of 1 keV, all using other approaches. LM26 is the first fusion machine in the world to achieve 1 keV with practical low-speed compression. The Company’s approach uses MTF to heat magnetically confined plasma through relatively low-speed compression (milliseconds) as compared to other types of plasma compression technologies (microseconds or nanoseconds). This compression is achieved with a metal wall, rather than high-powered lasers or other methods operating in physical extremes. This method and speed of compression is advantageous for the commercialization of fusion power and, ultimately, its economics: it means less required power, less complexity, and less cost. It also means, in General Fusion’s commercial design, a liquid metal wall can protect the machine from neutrons, breed fuel, and efficiently capture heat to create steam and spin a turbine, the technology’s key commercialization advantages. This 1 keV achievement is a key step toward the Company’s ultimate commercial approach.
  
Global Collaboration
  
General Fusion has spent more than two decades developing its fusion technology in Canada, with support from the Government of Canada's Strategic Response Fund and other programs that have been instrumental to the Company's progress. General Fusion has also worked with UKAEA to develop the diagnostic systems behind this result, described further in today's joint news release with UKAEA. General Atomics Energy Group is also advising on the diagnostic system required for the Company's next milestone.

General Fusion's 1 keV Plasma Compression

  


VANCOUVER, British Columbia and OXFORD, England, Oct.  08, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- General Fusion Group Ltd. (NASDAQ: GFUZ) (“General Fusion” or the “Company”), a leading fusion company, has achieved a historic compressional plasma heating result with its large-scale Lawson Machine 26 (“LM26”) demonstration. Using Magnetized Target Fusion (“MTF”), the Company reached electron temperatures exceeding 12 million degrees Celsius – more than 1 keV. The results were co-published by the UK Atomic Energy Authority (“UKAEA”), the UK’s national fusion laboratory, and measured using gold-standard Thomson scattering methods.
  
Only a few fusion companies have surpassed the industry-recognized milestone of 1 keV, all using other fusion approaches. This world-first result for General Fusion’s MTF approach marks a measurable step forward for the Company in its aim to deliver baseload, economical clean power from fusion energy.
  
The 1.1 keV electron heating (12.6 million degrees Celsius) result was measured just prior to peak compression and is detailed in a technical paper co-authored by UKAEA that is being concurrently posted on General Fusion’s website and submitted for peer review.
  
Scientific Progress
  
As a technology, General Fusion’s MTF aims to achieve fusion in a practical and economical way, using a liquid metal wall which enables the use of existing materials and, ultimately, durable machines. It also allows the Company’s design to avoid superconducting magnets and high-powered lasers. The approach is designed to solve significant long-standing barriers to commercializing fusion energy at a time when electricity demand is surging, and nations around the world are racing to bring fusion power to the grid.
  
General Fusion’s LM26 program is designed to reach key technical milestones on the path to a first-of-a-kind fusion plant in the next decade. LM26 is the first fusion machine in the world to achieve 1 keV with low-speed compression. Using MTF, the Company heats magnetically confined plasma through compression in milliseconds as compared to other types of plasma compression technologies in microseconds or nanoseconds. In LM26, this compression is achieved with a solid metal wall, rather than high-powered lasers or other methods operating in physical extremes. Achieving 1 keV through practical, low-speed compression is unique to General Fusion and is a key step toward its ultimate commercial approach. 
  
Upcoming LM26 Milestones
  
General Fusion is advancing its LM26 program as part of its phased commercialization plan. Upgrades to the LM26 machine are now underway to support higher plasma compression ratios ahead of the Company’s next targeted 10 keV milestone. The LM26 program will then advance toward the Lawson criterion, the combination of temperature, density, and energy confinement time required for net fusion energy in the plasma. This program is designed to de-risk the path to practical fusion power and support the Company’s goal to begin operating a first-of-a-kind plant around 2035.
  
UKAEA Expertise in Fusion Diagnostics
  
The findings were made possible through UKAEA’s expertise in plasma diagnostics. Drawing on decades of experience operating fusion facilities such as the Joint European Torus (JET) and flagship machine, MAST Upgrade, UKAEA has internationally recognised expertise in plasma diagnostics, the systems used to measure and understand the behaviour of fusion plasmas.
  
Measuring plasma temperature is a complex process. In fusion research, scientists use a laser-based technique called Thomson scattering to do this. They shine a laser through the plasma and analyse how the light scatters from the particles inside it. This lets them accurately measure how hot the plasma is, without disturbing it. This way of measuring plasma dates back to 1969 when UKAEA scientists collaborated with Russian researchers to record fusion temperatures above 10 million degrees Celsius. This breakthrough reshaped fusion research worldwide and established UKAEA as a leader in plasma diagnostics. 
  
Measuring plasma conditions on LM26, and applying Thomson scattering, presented a significant technical challenge. The plasma is enclosed within a metal liner and compressed to a very small volume, severely limiting diagnostic access and visibility. Despite these constraints, diagnostic specialists from UKAEA and General Fusion jointly designed and commissioned a Thomson scattering system that successfully measured the plasma near peak compression conditions. One of the key components of the diagnostic system was a state-of-the-art polychromator designed and built by UKAEA at its newly established Diagnostic Innovation Centre of Excellence (DICE) facility at the Culham Campus in the UK. For General Fusion, the diagnostic provided critical measurements of plasma temperature and performance. This is one example of how UKAEA’s capability is helping to support the development of fusion technologies and delivering advanced diagnostic solutions for fusion programmes around the world.
  
Global Collaboration Advancing the Path to Commercialization
  
General Fusion has spent more than two decades developing its fusion technology in Canada, with support from the Government of Canada’s Strategic Response Fund and other programs that have been instrumental to the Company’s progress. The Company has also advanced its technology with leading fusion research organizations worldwide, including a long-standing collaboration with UKAEA to optimize diagnostic systems. The General Atomics Energy Group is also advising on the diagnostic system required for the Company’s next milestone.

"Achieving a plasma electron temperature of over 1 keV marks an important milestone for General Fusion since achieving hot electrons is a necessary step for proving fusion confinement concepts. This achievement reflects the tangible progress being made by General Fusion and others across a diverse set of fusion approaches in the private sector, while the collaboration with UKAEA, contributing its specialist expertise, highlights the value of robust public-private partnerships in broadly advancing fusion and sharing scientific results. It also continues a great tradition of international scientific collaboration: in 1969, a UK team used the then-new laser-based Thomson scattering technique to verify 1 keV electrons in a Russian tokamak, helping to establish what became the standard magnetic confinement concept. We now look forward to the outcome of the formal peer review process and the publication of the paper in Review of Scientific Instruments.”

General Fusion Provides First Public Company Business Update

Entered the Public Markets with ~US$150 Million in Cash to Advance Fusion Development and Demonstrate Commercially Relevant Magnetized Target Fusion Capabilities
VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Aug.  18, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- General Fusion Group Ltd. (NASDAQ: GFUZ) (“General Fusion” or the “Company”), a leader in the global race to commercialize fusion energy, will provide a business update today and highlight recent progress across its technology and commercial initiatives. General Fusion became the first publicly listed fusion company following its July 2026 listing on Nasdaq under the ticker symbol “GFUZ.”
  
Operational Highlights
  
Financial Position: Following completion of its business combination with Spring Valley Acquisition Corp. III, General Fusion entered the public markets with approximately US$150 million in cash, inclusive of net transaction proceeds from the private placement and trust capital, to advance its practical fusion energy technology. The Company expects this capital to fund its Lawson Machine 26 (“LM26”) program across several planned technical milestones through the end of 2028.
Technology: General Fusion recently announced significant progress toward its next major technical milestone with the LM26 program. The Company successfully demonstrated plasma heating to approximately 0.72 keV (8.4 million degrees Celsius) using compression of a plasma with a lithium liner, representing important progress toward its near-term objective of achieving 1 keV, followed by 10 keV and ultimately the Lawson criterion, the combination of plasma parameters that can produce net fusion energy in the plasma. 
Commercial: General Fusion announced a milestone-based framework agreement with Renexia S.p.A., a Toto Group company, to collaborate on the potential commercial deployment of the Company’s fusion energy technology in Italy. This agreement represents another step in expanding relationships ahead of future commercialization.
Strategic Partnerships: General Fusion expanded its technology ecosystem through a collaboration with General Atomics Energy Group to advance plasma diagnostics capable of measuring temperatures exceeding 10 keV, equivalent to approximately 100 million degrees Celsius, during the second phase of the LM26 program.

  
“Our listing on Nasdaq marks an important milestone for General Fusion and the broader fusion industry,” said Greg Twinney, Chief Executive Officer of General Fusion. “We believe fusion is approaching an important inflection point. Decades of advances in plasma physics, high-performance computing, advanced manufacturing, and digital controls have converged with rapidly growing global demand for clean, reliable baseload power, creating the conditions for fusion to transition from scientific promise toward commercial reality.”
  
Twinney continued, “General Fusion was built for this moment. Our Magnetized Target Fusion approach is designed to deliver practical, clean, and abundant fusion energy through a simpler machine architecture that leverages existing industrial materials and supply chains while avoiding many of the cost and complexity challenges relied upon by other fusion technologies. Over more than two decades, we have systematically advanced that approach through real-world testing on increasingly sophisticated demonstration systems and published peer-reviewed scientific results. We believe this disciplined, engineering-driven strategy positions us to reduce technical risk while advancing toward the commercialization of practical fusion energy.”
  
Twinney added, “We recently announced meaningful progress toward our next major technical milestone with LM26, expanded our commercial ecosystem through our framework agreement with Renexia, strengthened our technology partnerships via our collaboration with General Atomics, and entered the public markets with approximately US$150 million to fund our LM26 program through several key technical milestones by the end of 2028.”
  
Twinney concluded, “We believe the industry’s next chapter will be defined by disciplined technical and commercial execution. Our priorities are clear: continue achieving measurable technical milestones, expand our commercial partnerships, strengthen our supply chain capabilities, and build the foundation for the deployment of our first-of-a-kind fusion plant by approximately 2035. We look forward to demonstrating our progress to shareholders as we execute against that roadmap.”
  
Looking Ahead
General Fusion remains focused on executing its staged commercialization roadmap. Near-term priorities include:
  
Achieve the 1 keV plasma electron temperature milestone.
Advance toward 10 keV and ultimately the Lawson criterion, supporting the Company’s objective of demonstrating commercially relevant fusion conditions.
Expand commercial, supply chain development, and strategic partnerships across energy, industrial, engineering, and technology ecosystems.
Enable the successful siting of future demonstration and commercial-scale fusion energy systems that support technical success, commercial growth, and long-term scalability.
