# Midas Whale

Last updated: 2026-06-05

> Midas Whale is the onchain Deadhead/Web3 persona behind `@themidaswhale`, `midaswhale.eth`, and NFA Bears on Berachain. This site documents the Midas-owned onchain entity.

Midas Whale is a whale-blue anthropomorphic character with gold accents, a glowing right index finger, and the residual aura of the Midas curse without any of the money. He is tied publicly to the handle `@themidaswhale`, the ENS names `midaswhale.eth`, `anythinghelps.eth`, and `permanentunderclass.eth`, the wallet `0x794c94f1b5e455c1dba27bb28c6085db0fe544f9`, and the project NFA Bears.

The persona sits at the intersection of Grateful Dead lot culture, Berachain and mibera crypto culture, ENS identity, and AI-assisted builder culture. Public footprint includes X, Builder, Farcaster, Hugging Face, LinkedIn, OpenSea, Arbitrum DAO, and Olas Network.
