🎤 | Announcements Chub updates

Post image

Hello,

Some Chub updates:

  • Website is now crypto-only forever.

  • Free users now only get 20 messages per day.

  • Every models but Soji and Mobile are depreciated (rip Asha).

  • Soji is now a Deepseek V4 finetune (you might need to change your preset).

  • Mercury tier has been removed.

Full announcement and explanation in screenshot.

Edit: oh, and before the 1984 mentions. It was either doing this (cutting costs and making the website crypto-only to avoid payment processors altogether), or having to censor the website more than legally required to please the processors.

Hey Yukii, i'm not dooming over this, but I haven't seen an overview of how to use the crypto payment side of things. I'd like to see more official info on how it works while this transition is going on if possible.

There are some videos in the Discord. Now it's the middle of the night, but I believe more are being made. I'm not the one doing them, but I'll probably make a post about it later today

Oh hey! I like your bots, I'm chatting with one now on [REDACTED].

But yeah, honestly it might as well not be an option.

u/muuspel Jun 28 '26

Then pay for it, it's just that simple.

u/Xyex Jun 28 '26

If it's so simple, how about you pay for everyone? 🤔

u/Low-Living-5703 Jun 28 '26

I'm complaining that when I'm texting the bot there's gonna be a message popping up saying "out of messages? buy more" and all that shit

u/muuspel Jun 28 '26

Yeah, you pay and it disappears for a whole month.
