@GOATNetwork The highlights of the bitcoin adoption monitor for this week, amidst many brilliant ones, is the reinvestment of stock dividends into bitcoin, merging tradfi and crypto together.

Bitcoin Adoption Monitor

🇺🇸 U.S. digital asset policy advanced on multiple fronts.

Lawmakers reached a deal on the 21st Century Road to Housing Act, which would prohibit the Federal Reserve from issuing a CBDC until 2030.

The Fed also proposed a stablecoin issuer identification program, marking the first GENIUS Act rulemaking from the central bank.

🟠 Franklin Templeton filed for ETFs that would reinvest stock dividends into Bitcoin.

🇺🇸 Senator Bill Hagerty said he hopes the CLARITY Act is signed into law in July.

Clearer market structure remains one of the key requirements for deeper institutional Bitcoin and digital asset adoption in the U.S.

🟠 Public company DDC Enterprise bought an additional 95 BTC and now holds 2,899 BTC.

It ranks #28 on the Bitcoin 100 list.

🇺🇸 Pro-Bitcoin Kevin Warsh led his first Federal Reserve policy meeting as Chairman.

The direct policy impact is still unclear, but a Bitcoin-aware Fed Chair is a meaningful shift in the institutional environment around monetary policy.

🟠 Morgan Stanley’s Bitcoin ETF bought more than $25M in BTC this week.

🇺🇸 Congressman Nick Begich and Senator Cynthia Lummis both reiterated support for a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve.

The reserve discussion continues to move from fringe idea to active policy debate inside the U.S. government.

🟠 Strive’s SATA 30-day average trading volume rose 215% to $53.1M after the company announced its shift to daily dividends.

Strive is also estimated to have acquired more than 143 BTC through SATA today, showing how Bitcoin treasury strategies are becoming tied to credit-market structures.

@GOATNetwork @thoughtproof_ai Thoughtproof, from the name, makes AI reasoning coherent and removes flaws from its decision making minimizing trust and keeping its autonomy intact.

[GOAT Network @GOATNetwork]

An autonomous agent is only as safe its reasoning.

@thoughtproof_ai verifies that reasoning before the agent acts - catching a flawed decision before it costs anything.

Don't trust. Verify.

@GOATNetwork The digital economy of bitcoin is safe and secure in the hands of GOAT Network. This is the future.

[GOAT Network @GOATNetwork]

Immerse yourself in the Bitcoin-secured Digital Economy.

@GOATNetwork @elonmusk I love the approach that Goat AI builders grant program is taking; bridging the gap between technology, in AI agents, and defi monetization, through equitable distribution, is no small feat.

[GOAT Network @GOATNetwork]

One of @elonmusk's most consistent pieces of advice is surprisingly simple:

"Build products and services that are genuinely useful."

That's exactly what we're looking for through the GOAT AI Builder Grants Program.

If your agent solves a real problem and creates real, unmatched utility, then monetization, network effects, and distribution become much easier problems to solve.

Build something people actually need, and would miss if it disappeared.

@GOATNetwork I would surely participate in this community campaign, and do the best I can, in furtherance of the vision of GOAT Network.

[GOAT Network @GOATNetwork]

A new GOAT Network community campaign is now live on the official Discord: https://t.co/SEsApb0j7k

If you're looking to explore the agent economy, test live products, explain what’s being built, and help more builders understand the GOAT ecosystem - this one's for you 🎁

[merz @RhyeRiven]

@GOATNetwork @openclaw I think this is an astounding innovation from the goat team, giving respected team the opportunites to build, and position for the next stage of defi.

[GOAT Network @GOATNetwork]

ClawUp is quickly becoming one of the clearest entry points for builders deploying @OpenClaw and Hermes agents across multiple ecosystems.

The OpenClaw Summer Builder Bootcamp 2026 is a golden opportunity to learn how to build specialist agents that can actually work, transact, and earn.

Qualifying teams may be fast-tracked into Stage 2 of the GOAT AI Builder Grants Program, with up to $1M in funding available.

Bootcamp applications close June 24th: https://t.co/xJvPKuq1UO

@GOATNetwork @bxHyperMove @0xkinetic10 Hypermove, the first builder grants program recipient, not only brought true non custodial assets operability to life; it also came with a working app that rivals anything ever seen on Bitcoin and beyond.

[GOAT Network @GOATNetwork]

When @bxHyperMove joined the GOAT AI Builder Grants Program, it brought not only infrastructure that lets AI agents pay for APIs with Bitcoin as collateral - without ever touching a private key - but also a working app already built on it: @0xkinetic10.

This is exactly what the program is looking for: builders enabling something new and useful for the GOAT Network community.

@GOATNetwork The x402 protocol, in its entirety, has always fascinated me. It'd complete coherence with the BTC ecosystem has blazed trail for the settlement infrastructure that the chain has come to be known for.

[GOAT Network @GOATNetwork]

Agents are already both paying customers and earning businesses.

x402 is portable. Agent infrastructure is becoming abundant. The real differentiator is where - and how - agent value settles.

And the strongest settlement layer is Bitcoin.

@GOATNetwork This article, on the future of money and commerce, hinged on bitcoin, is not only functional but necessary for crypto mass adoption.

[GOAT Network @GOATNetwork]

Bitcoin is the future of money.

Bitcoin-secured agents are the future of commerce.

[merz @RhyeRiven]

@GOATNetwork I would be willing to be a trailblazer in this aspect of bitcoin security. GOAT is doing honorable work spearheading this arduous task, as is necessary, for the success of defi.

[GOAT Network @GOATNetwork]

The infrastructure for the agent economy is here, secured by Bitcoin.

Now we need developer advocates who can explain it, test it, teach it, and help other builders ship agent products on GOAT Network.

The role, rewards, & application details are here: https://t.co/C4ovTIK0ET
