1/ Today we announce our acquisition of Messari.

Our mission is to bring trust and transparency to onchain markets.

This acquisition accelerates that mission.

@cryptomanran @Blockworks Too kind man. Early days still! Onwards

[Yano 🟪 @JasonYanowitz]

We just sent the SEC our comment letter on Regulation Crypto Assets.

Our goal is to give every token one current, public record to make onchain compliance cheaper and faster.

Our asks:

1) Let projects file disclosures through Qualified Onchain Disclosure Agents

2) Let third parties file on behalf of projects

It's time we protect investors so we can protect this industry.

I don't know what to say on the valuation of frontier models or bottleneck trades, but a productivity boom from AI is absolutely happening its just a matter of how setup the business is for it and how skilled the users are which is likely causing a dispersion in teh data.

Internally at @Blockworks we've hit a genuinely absurd acceleration in productivity in recent months, it's insane.

We live in the future.

Anyone saying otherwise I'm just going to attribute it to a skill issue.

@Matt_Hougan Appreciate you Matt

Blockworks is asking the SEC to require token projects to disclose token loans, market-maker agreements and payments to influencers under the agency's proposed Regulation Crypto Assets, according to the company's description of its comment letter.

Huge. Blockworks is doing it right here.

Blockworks data everywhere

[KoolKrypto @koolkrypto223]

Since September the $AERO share of spot RWA volume (green) has been inching closer and closer to parity with the $UNI share (blue). ty @Blockworks for graph

This is before they deploy on mainnet, RH chain, Arbitrum, Elysium (?👀?) etc...

Not extremely hard to see where this trend is heading.

Goal was to see if IRL Dempsey is as thoughtful as he is online.

This was the widest ranging Empire podcast in awhile… @mhdempsey did not disappoint.

Seeing this makes me realize how behind every exchange is when it comes to data

Exchanges, help me help you

[shaunda devens @shaundadevens]

All my coins are down. Im back in 4 fig hell.

Please just take the rest of my funds and come up with a generational trade.

Use fundamentals, use as much leverage as possible, and make no mistakes.

My bloodline depends on it.

[Yano 🟪 @JasonYanowitz]

@shaundadevens sick

DAY 2 OF BUILDING A TERMINAL

Execution powered by Hyperliquid, the onchain exchange layer.

Data and analytics powered by Blockworks, the onchain market intelligence layer.

Combined = the deepest data and execution in the market.

Our MCP is so goated this isn't even a real launch btw. It's just me (mostly claude) using it to vibecode the terminal I've always wanted.

Go out and build your own empires!!!

[Yano 🟪 @JasonYanowitz]

Blockworks… you’re not thinking big enough

[shaunda devens @shaundadevens]

Day 1 of imagining @Blockworks with Hyperliquid builder codes.

Makes no sense that exchanges show only price data when fundamentals are equally, if not more important for putting on a trade. I need:

-Advanced screening: fundamentals, monitoring, protocol updates and unlocks, instead of screening by price for things that already moved
-Fundamental indicators: From simple features like plotting multiples alongside price to bespoke multi-asset views (e.g. revenue/price divergence vs. peers, unlocks vs. buyback yield)
-Comprehensive data: business metrics (users, revenue, competitive landscape), token disclosures and unlocks

Imagine being able to do everything on one interface: screening assets, understanding, tracking and monitoring them, then trading them.

I wanted to see if it’s possible, so I built a prototype with the Blockworks MCP. I’ve been AI-pilled for a while, but watching it one-shot an exchange was insane.

There are empires waiting to be built.

@Haider @okx @star_okx Helluva run, one of the best to ever do it

[Yano 🟪 @JasonYanowitz]

Added some new data to our API/MCP:

1. Granular lending data (balances, flows, rates, liquidations, financials for 5,924 markets)

2. RWA spot DEX volume by chain, DEX, issuer & category

3. 17,882 tokens labelled by issuer and type

4. Deeper data on where tokens actually sit

Have fun.
