Matt is spot on. Any informed person will recognize the tired and blatant market manipulation tactics of one Chamath Palihapitiya who at one point, owned 1% of the circulating supply of Bitcoin before selling out prematurely. Something he has often lamented.

[Matt Hougan @Matt_Hougan]

"There's a structural flaw in gold. Because it's physical, you can't really use it to settle international transactions. You either have to store it with a third-party -- a vault in Switzerland, London, or New York, which puts it at high risk of seizure -- or you have to transport it via insecure/slow planes, trains, and busses. No central bank wants these things."

A classic debate/sales technique when you position one thing vs. another is to focus attention on a small issue with one side, rather than providing a balanced view.

Nothing is perfect. And IMO it's far easier to make bitcoin holdings quasi-private than it is to make gold securely non-physical.

Central bank adoption is coming. They'll hold both bitcoin and gold. It'll just take time.

To borrow someone else's word: HUGE

[Avalanche🔺 @avax]

TrustWare was selected as a Codebase Season 4 honoree.

They’re building a universal deposit layer that lets apps accept any asset on any chain in one click, while they handle the bridges, swaps, and routing.

@Trustware_io will receive a grant + ongoing support from Ava Labs.

A multinational conglomerate is a business. So is a one person garage startup.

Avalanche is built for both.

[Matt Hougan @Matt_Hougan]

So far today...

1) Meta revealed plans to roll out stablecoins payments across Facebook, Whatsapp and Instagram (that's 3 billion users);

2) Coinbase turned on stock trading -- 24/5, zero commissions;

3) Kraken rolled out 24/7 perps trading on tokenized stocks;

Eight months ago the SEC said "let there be superapps" and the market is responding.

📊 UPDATE: Hyperliquid tops 24H fees at $947K, with Solana trailing at $685K.

The price action has never reflected its value proposition but as the Web 3 economy grows, the masses will begin to understand the power of Chainlink which will trigger explosive ecosystem growth and price appreciation.

Patience is a virtue :)

[Altcoin Buzz @Altcoinbuzzio]

Chainlink is currently orchestrating a massive middleware expansion.

Coinbase has officially selected Chainlink CCIP as the exclusive bridge infrastructure for its $7 billion wrapped asset suite.

With CCIP handling $7.77 billion in annual volume, Link has solidified its status as the "Universal Interoperability Standard" for the world's most popular retail and institutional brokerage apps.

🔥 NEW: Robinhood has launched Robinhood Ventures, a new private markets platform offering access without accreditation requirements or high minimum investments.

[Cointelegraph @Cointelegraph]

🔥 BULLISH: Investors absorbed roughly 429K $BTC in the $60K–$70K zone, signaling strong dip buying, per @Glassnode data.

[Kyle Chassé 🐸 @Kylechasse]

The Fed just moved crypto closer to the finish line.

Proposed rule drops “reputation risk” from bank exams and focuses only on material financial risk.

60-day comment period now open.

Banks signaled they won’t be penalized for serving lawful crypto firms.

@SenLummis called it the end of Operation Chokepoint 2.0.

If finalized → debanking risk falls → clearer path for U.S. crypto banking → faster global adoption.

@Kylechasse Demonstrating the difference between signal and noise - Steve Jobs would be proud. Well done Kyle.

@BenqiFinance @avax @Anchorage Team - Right now some users are unable to repay DAI.e loans which puts their collateral at risk especially right now. What is the ETA for a solution or workaround? Plz advise.

[BENQI🔺 @BenqiFinance]

Are you utilizing @TreehouseFi's $tAVAX strategy?

Here’s how it works:

When you deposit your $AVAX into vaults, its staked through BENQI to mint $sAVAX.

THEN your $sAVAX is supplied into @aave and from here, the strategy borrows $AVAX and reallocate to BENQI for more $sAVAX.

This is a tokenized 1-loop strategy risk-managed daily, boosting staking yield while converging the fragmented lending and staking rates.

1/2
