Fellow crypto travelers, my thoughts and best wishes go out to every token holder, whatever chain or projects you've backed. These are truly difficult times. At DFINITY and Caffeine, we remain focused on delivering mainstream value. Better times will come.
Pendle has been added to the Bloomberg Galaxy DEFI Index!
Genuinely grateful for this recognition from some of TradFi's most established benchmarks.
Another step toward bringing institutional attention to Pendle's fixed yield markets 🎉
Things just haven’t lined up in the way we need to have an #altcoin season. The stars haven’t aligned this time around.
The favourable macro conditions that we need are finally beginning to arrive so the real bull run is still on the cards - it’s just been put on hold #wagmi🚀
Ondo and Chainlink Unite to Bring Global Finance Onchain
Starting today, Ondo and @chainlink are joining together in a landmark strategic partnership to bring financial institutions onchain, building the infrastructure to tokenize trillions.
Together, we will work with leading institutions to move their assets and operations onchain using Ondo’s tokenization infrastructure & assets, with Ondo and Chainlink partnering to make CCIP the preferred solution for traditional financial institutions' cross-chain initiatives.
1️⃣ Bringing Financial Institutions Onchain Together
Ondo has developed one of the largest institutional ecosystems for real-world asset tokenization, spanning more than 100 leading global financial institutions, blockchains, protocols, and applications. Now, Ondo and Chainlink will jointly work with major financial institutions to onboard their services onchain, leveraging Ondo’s tokenization and Chainlink’s oracle infrastructure.
This builds on joint initiatives between Ondo and Chainlink with some of the world's leading firms in banking and capital markets, such as the recent integration with Kinexys by J.P. Morgan for cross-chain settlement of tokenized assets. Ondo is now also joining Chainlink’s corporate actions initiative with 24 of the world’s largest financial organizations, including Swift, DTCC, and Euroclear.
2️⃣ Chainlink to Serve as Ondo’s Official Oracle Provider for its Tokenized Securities
Ondo Global Markets is now the largest platform bringing tokenized stocks and ETFs onchain at scale, with over $350 million in total value locked (TVL) & $700+ million in total volume across more than 100 assets. Now, Chainlink will serve as Ondo’s official oracle provider for its tokenized securities, unlocking new DeFi use cases, such as vaults, structured products, lending protocols, and more.
By leveraging Chainlink’s institutional-grade data infrastructure, Ondo tokenized stocks & ETFs will be priced with best-in-class, reliable data inputs across all supported blockchains. To ensure resilient market data, Chainlink provides custom price feeds for each tokenized equity. These Chainlink data feeds capture all economic and corporate action events, such as dividends, delivering comprehensive, valuations directly onchain. As a result, Ondo tokenized stocks can be used with confidence as trusted, composable, and high-quality collateral across DeFi.
“Ondo’s deployment of tokenized stocks using Chainlink showcases what institutional-grade tokenized stocks look like in production. By securing its tokenized stocks with Chainlink, Ondo is redefining how traditional financial instruments can operate onchain in a programmable, composable, and globally accessible way. This is how we build the next generation of capital markets.” - Chainlink Co-Founder, @SergeyNazarov
This partnership unites two industry leaders powering the next wave of onchain finance and utility.
Pendle’s ambitions go far beyond DeFi.
We’re building yield infrastructure that targets the $140 trillion fixed-income market, on track to surpass $200 trillion by 2030.
We aim to democratize fixed income, transforming a market once reserved for institutions into an open, efficient system for billions around the world.
Not just crypto yield. The future of the world’s yield economy.
TARS AI continues to engage directly with the world’s leading infrastructure providers, aligning with the ecosystems driving real-world AI deployment.
Most recently, the team was on the ground at AWS Summit Zurich 2025, joining builders and enterprise leaders shaping the future of intelligent infrastructure.
The focus was clear, Agentic and Generative AI at enterprise scale, powered by AWS SageMaker and Bedrock, integrating systems from Anthropic, Meta, and others.
Real adoption is accelerating:
• 33% of enterprise software will embed agentic AI by 2028 (from <1% in 2024)
• 15% of daily business decisions will be made autonomously
• Kuehne+Nagel already processes 500K+ AI requests monthly
For TARS AI, this momentum reinforces what’s been built from the start, B2B agentic AI designed for scale, cost-efficiency, and data-driven value.
I wasn't expecting these levels to be there for $NEAR.
However, they are provided and I would be accumulating here if I had the opportunity.
After $LINK, probably the second massive opportunity of a lifetime: $NEAR at $2.
