BREAKING: Institutional investment strategies from $1.3T Wellington and $6B Fasanara are now live on Avalanche @MidasRWA is bringing mWIN and mGLOBAL to Avalanche, with access to institutional fixed income and alternative credit strategies onchain. These are assets that traditionally sit behind institutional infrastructure. On Avalanche, they become programmable, transferable, and usable.

After what promises to be an intense week in New York for @blockworksDAS by @Blockworks with my colleagues @Bitondan and Duncan Hoffman, I will be heading to Cannes for EthCC to discuss the future of onchain finance. It is an honour to be among this year’s speakers, with DeFi and onchain asset management conversations gain more traction across the industry. I'm also excited to join the lineup at Agora by @KaikoData to explore what's next for institutional staking. If you want to discuss onchain asset management, DeFi or staking, we’ll be there with Marco Severi and @donaldchua so make sure to send us a message!

TradFi asset managers are going onchain, and the infrastructure to do it compliantly is now live @Kiln_finance OmniVault removes the lock-in and compliance complexity that kept institutional yield strategies out of reach for platforms Proud to be part of the journey with Kiln 🫡
For the first time, platforms and institutions can access exclusive strategies from the world's trusted asset managers, without being locked in or navigating risk and compliance complexity onchain. Yield access should be governed, not fragmented. That's what Kiln OmniVault, the evolution of Kiln DeFi, is for: the bespoke vault infrastructure that brings leading TradFi asset managers onchain for the first time to the platforms and institutions ready to distribute them at scale. Strategy marketplace: Stablecoin (3–12% APY), ETH (4–5% APY), BTC (4–6% APY) – available today. Already live on stablecoins with @Ledger, @TrustWallet and @safe, reaching $600M+ TVL in under a year.

Gemini 3.1 + Claude 4.6 seems like a dangerous combo. a dev built a geospatial tracking system with live planes, satellites traffic cams, and panoptic detection. this is literally a CIA tool lmao. i guess this is what happens when AI gets too good.

Bitwise Q4 2024 Crypto Market Review just dropped. Here are 10 takeaways (in six words or less): 1. Crypto wins the U.S. election. Bigly. 2. Trump admin gets orange pilled. 3. Stripe acquires Bridge. Fintech, meet crypto. 4. Crypto wins in court. (See “Tornado.”) 5. Bitcoin ETFs get options. Hello, traders. 6. MSTR enters Nasdaq. “No second best.” 7. AI agents grow. Watch this space. 8. Lot of countries considering BTC reserves. 9. BTC crosses 100k. Parties. Also HODL. 10. Companies mimic MSTR. Boards, pay attention.

ETH is 10 years old today! The ether ICO started July 22, 2014. Back then ETH was sold on Bitcoin at a rate of 2,000 ETH per 1 BTC—totally permissionless, no VCs, no vesting. Today 1 BTC buys less than 20 ETH. Few assets have outperformed BTC over 10 years; even fewer have outperformed by 100x. ETH is blockspace currency. 4.3M ETH have been burned to pay for gas since EIP-1559. Many more millions of ETH will be burned for blobs. Through staking ETH provides $100B of economic security for Ethereum, 10x more than Bitcoin. ETH is also pristine collateral for defi and restaking, unlocking economic bandwidth in size for the internet of value. Tomorrow ETH spot ETFs start trading in the US. ETH is now widely recognised as a digital commodity. The institutional journey is starting. And for those who know what the emojis mean, ETH is 🦇🔊 :)
