$XTZ vs. $BTC is looking interesting! Weekly RSI is really trying to curve up. Bounce here would probably send this pair up to that 0.382 level (3-5x) and if the impulse gets continuation, the 0.618-0.786 level could be reached (10-20x)
Don't sleep on these boomer coins!

$XTZ UPDATE!!📢 We got that expected impulse from the lows and the price action is coiling up for the next move!🚀
I believe #XTZ will hit the $4 level relatively soon and then get a -60% mid cycle correction before the final push to that $19-50 target!🎯

Introduction to Tezos❗️
@tezos is a pioneering blockchain platform that distinguishes itself through its capacity to self-amend and evolve via on-chain governance.
Launched in 2018 by @ArthurB and Kathleen Breitman.
Tezos addresses core challenges in blockchain scalability and governance by enabling seamless protocol upgrades without the need for hard forks.
- - - - -
At its heart, Tezos is a decentralised network that supports smart contracts and decentralised applications (dApps).
It utilises Liquid Proof-of-Stake (LPoS), an energy-efficient consensus mechanism.
Whereby holders of its native token, Tez (XTZ), can stake their tokens to secure the network and participate in governance.
As of July 2025, approximately 977 million XTZ are in circulation, with a supply that increases by around 4.5% per year through validator rewards.
Tezos is unique in its community-led governance model, where stakeholders propose and vote on protocol upgrades.
This ensures the platform evolves in a decentralised and democratic manner.
The most recent upgrade, Rio (1 May 2025), introduced 1-day network cycles and enhanced Layer 2 support, greatly improving scalability and flexibility.

Over the next seven days, we’ll explore Tezos in detail—from its fundamentals to its advanced features.
Join us tomorrow as we dive into the economics of Tez (XTZ).
Tez (XTZ) and Economics❗️
Tez, or XTZ, is the native cryptocurrency of the @tezos network.
It plays a critical role in operations, staking, and governance.
- - - - -
$XTZ is used for:
- Paying transaction fees on the network. (Rest assured they are very low, not like @ethereum)
- Staking, either as a “baker” (validator) or as a delegator, to help secure the network and earn rewards;
- Participating in governance by voting on protocol upgrades. - - - - -
As of July 2025,
around 977 million $XTZ are in circulation, with no fixed cap.
Its annual growth rate is approximately 4.5%, a figure which can be adjusted via on-chain governance.
Tezos raised over $232 million in its 2017 token sale, allocating 80% to donors, 10% to the Tezos Foundation, and 10% to Dynamic Ledger Solutions.
- - - - -
Users can engage with $XTZ by:
- Staking: Hold 6,000 XTZ to become a baker or delegate to an existing one for a share of rewards.
- Trading: $XTZ is available on major exchanges like @binance and @coinbase.
- Utility: Many dApps and NFT platforms on Tezos require XTZ for interaction. - - - - -
The Rio upgrade introduced 1-day cycles and Layer 2 (@etherlink) enhancements, impacting staking opportunities and reward mechanisms.
👉 Ultimately, XTZ is far more than a token.
it’s the engine of Tezos’s governance and decentralised economy.
Tomorrow, we’ll look at how Tezos stays secure and decentralised via its Liquid Proof-of-Stake consensus.
LOMBARD JUST DEPLOYED LBTC to @Etherlink — a zk-rollup built on Tezos
It’s not just a new chain
It’s a strategic step toward modular Bitcoin-native yield across ecosystems
Here’s why this matters 🧵
1.
Most BTC restaking happens on EVM chains like Ethereum or Base
But that limits where Bitcoin can move, earn, and scale
Etherlink offers something different:
→ Fast, low-fee rollups
→ Secured by Tezos finality
→ Native support for modular DeFi design
2.
By bridging LBTC to Etherlink, Lombard unlocks:
>Bitcoin-native yield in a non-EVM environment
>Lower gas costs for vault users
>A new set of applications and DeFi primitives on Tezos
>Multi-chain vault routing opportunities
BTC can finally scale across modular rails
3.
This isn’t just about integration
It’s about thesis execution
Lombard’s vision:
→ Credit markets built directly on top of BTC
→ Vaults that route yield wherever it's most efficient
→ A modular DeFi layer that doesn’t care which chain it’s on
Etherlink is a new route in that engine
4.
Phase Two of Lombard is about real deployment
Not just on Ethereum
But across chains that offer scalable, low-cost, composable infrastructure
BTC isn’t just collateral anymore
It’s programmable capital
Where should LBTC go next?

@Lombard_Finance
Lombard’s $LBTC is now live on @Etherlink, Tezos’ high-speed, low-cost L2. This marks a major step in expanding Bitcoin's utility in DeFi.
LBTC becomes the primary BTC asset on Etherlink.
Backed 1:1 with native BTC, not a wrapped derivative.
Integrated with:
• OKU (swap/bridge aggregator)
• Superlend (yield aggregator)
• Hanji (CLOB DEX)
• IguanaDEX (LBTC/wBTC swaps)
Lombard is collaborating with Etherlink and the Tezos Foundation to build a robust Bitcoin-native DeFi ecosystem.
To celebrate, $3M+ in Apple Farm incentives are live — users can stake LBTC and earn applXTZ rewards over a 2-week epoch.
