Hey Pickful community,

Today's update brings video support and a round of performance and UX improvements — live on Web, iOS, and Android:

🎬 Video Posts Are Here

You can now attach a video to short posts and articles:

• Direct upload: Videos go straight from your browser to Mux — no server relay, fast uploads
• Progress indicator: A progress bar and percentage show upload status in real time
• Inline player: Once processing is complete, the video plays directly inside the post — fullscreen supported
• Processing state: If a video is still transcoding, the post shows a clear "processing" notice
• -> https://pickful.org/p-beoa

⚡ Coin Price Pages Are Faster

• Chart data for all periods (24H / 7D / 30D / YTD / 1Y) is now cached — repeat visits skip the database entirely
• Sparkline data on the coins index is cached with the same 5-minute TTL
• -> https://pickful.org/square

👤 Profile Page Redesign

• Avatar, username, bio, and join date displayed in a clean horizontal layout; VIP badge shown next to username
• Following / followers / post count in a dedicated row with bold numbers and compact labels
• -> https://pickful.org/update

🏆 Points Dashboard Redesign

• Total points shown prominently at the top with a quick link to invite friends
• New 3-column stat cards: posts / likes received / referral bonus
• Transaction history redesigned as a compact table with direction icons
• -> https://pickful.org/points

🔖 Bookmarks Empty State

Bookmarks now shows a helpful prompt when empty instead of a blank page. -> https://pickful.org/favorites

🗂 Menu & Navigation Polish

• Menu items reorganized into sections with icons for clarity
• New Post button promoted to the top of the menu
• Notification bell alignment fixed; unread count is now accurate and real-time
• Topic badge redesigned as a refined chip — tinted background, smooth hover transition

Referrals Page Redesign

• Stats are now displayed as cards — invited count and earned bonus at a glance
• New "How it works" three-step explainer
• Referred users list now shows avatar, join time, and a status badge
• -> https://pickful.org/users/referrals

🛠 Other Fixes

• Payment dependencies (viem / x402-fetch) are now lazy-loaded — fewer resources fetched on non-paid pages
• Fixed ordered list numbering skipping (1, 2, 3 instead of 1, 3, 5)
• Fixed scrollbar flashing when liking a post
