From proving demand to institutional scale.
Thrilled to see LBTC pair Bitwise’s proven covered-call strategy with full DeFi utility.
Target 2.5% net APY in Bitcoin, real income, robust custody. The second chapter of yield-bearing Bitcoin is built for durability.
LBTC proved demand for yield-bearing Bitcoin. Today, we double down on that thesis.
LBTC is moving to institutional yield. @Bitwise will manage a covered-call options strategy with a 4.5-year legacy track record, to generate LBTC's yield, targeting 2.5% net APY paid in Bitcoin.
AI companions are quickly becoming a top Web3 consumer category.

🚀Agents are stateless. We are building the state layer.
Most AI agents today work the exact same way with the same lifecycle. They open a temporary chat window, execute a task, and disappear when it closes. Their memory is just a quick search to a system that just belongs to the server for awhile.
Models will be changed, and apps will be disappeared. The time you spend with your companion should not just be a row in someone else's database.
❤️The Only AI Companion with a Portable, Verifiable Soul
MY AI PET is the only AI companion whose soul is a fully portable and verifiable object that belongs entirely to you.
• Complete Memory Graph: You can export your companion's memory graph, learned skills, and history whenever you want in a clear format.
• Verifiable History: We create a unique digital fingerprint of your companion's memory and record it on chain. What your companion learned and remembered can be proven with code, not just trust.
• Real Record of Time: The history is an unchangeable record of the actual days you spent together, the conversations that mattered, and real moments that shaped your relationship.
⬆️What We Are Building Next
• On chain anchoring for verifiable companion history.
• Persistent identity across every AI environment.
• An open protocol and SDK so companions can live beyond our app.
• Richer social, creative community and interactive experiences.
Thanks to our investors, partners, and community for helping us.
With the support of our investors and partners, we are accelerating our technology and ecosystem.

Gold captured the first wave of the "debasement trade." As institutional flows shift from experimental to systemic, 2026 is Bitcoin's turn to play catch-up. Cash is the real trap. 📉🥇
🌔 CoinEx 2025 TradFi Market Review: The Debasement Trade
At a high level, while the prevailing retail narrative suggests that 2025 was defined by U.S. equities and AI dominance, a granular look at the data reveals a different reality. The true story of 2025 was the debasement trade, a shift away from U.S. assets and fiat currency, as well as global capital reallocation. In our view, four major stories better summarize global market performance in 2025.

2025 was a "hidden bear" for alts (-60%) masked by BTC strength. 📉
Our Take: The era of easy beta is dead. 2026 won't be about PvP rotation, but "Adult" infrastructure: IPOs, Bank Stablecoins & AI Security. Quality > Narrative. The market is maturing; your portfolio should too.
Ledger secures ~22% of the global BTC supply. By integrating LBTC, Lombard just built the rail for that massive capital base to access yield directly from self-custody. This is the single largest distribution unlock for BTCfi to date. Institutional grade shipping. 🏗️
Welcome to BTC Yield, Ledger users.
@Ledger, the company securing ~22% of the world's Bitcoin, has partnered with Lombard and @Figment_io to introduce ‘BTC Yield’ to its 8M+ Ledger Wallet™ users while staying fully in control of their assets.
"A productive Bitcoin is not one that trades more. It’s one that anchors more value."
Bitcoin is moving from a passive store of value to a foundational financial asset.

The "Transparency Paradox" is the biggest blocker for on-chain AI.
@mindnetwork_xyz is solving this with x402z. Powered by @zama + ERC-7984, this is a new primitive for value transfer.
From "Don't be evil" to "Can't be evil." Infrastructure is maturing. 🔒🧠
Huge milestone for our portfolio @babylonlabs_io. 🟧🔥
Turning idle BTC into productive collateral while aligning real usage with $BABY is exactly the direction this space needs.
Today we’re sharing a major milestone for Babylon.
@a16zcrypto is backing the Babylon Project with $15M to support the development and scaling of Babylon's new protocol Trustless Bitcoin Vaults.
The BTCVaults are designed to provide new, functional utility for the BABY token through the token’s intended role in the usage and operation of the BTCVaults.

2026 thesis is clear: volatility stays, easy alpha leaves.
$BTC to $180k is the base case, but no broad altseason—liquidity gets sharp, selective, and unforgiving.
Agree with this framework—build, allocate, and trade accordingly. 🧠📈

🌔 CoinEx Crypto Market Outlook 2026: Unlock Certainty in Volatility
Our base case sees $BTC targeting $180,000 by 2026. However, the era of effortless alpha harvested through viral narratives is waning. Retail investors expecting a rising tide to lift all boats will be disappointed. We predict no traditional altseason; instead, liquidity will be ruthlessly selective, flowing only to blue-chip survivors with real adoption.
