Can XRP be used in strategies involving lending and vaults? Absolutely.
@HugoPhilion breaks down how XRP can be used as collateral to access yield strategies.
That includes wrapping XRP as FXRP on @FlareNetworks, borrowing stablecoins against it, and deploying those assets into other protocols, alongside vault-based strategies on XRPL and Flare.

Great article by @PanteraCapital@cosmo_jiang
“Both blockchain (cryptography) and AI (statistics) have shared roots as branches of math every engineer or mathematician has had exposure to. Indeed, we see this play out in the talent pool where many founders in Pantera’s blockchain portfolio companies have AI experience. Many leaders in AI today have blockchain experience. Beyond technical skillsets, the two ecosystems also share a culture of open innovation. Both fields have been driven by global open-source communities (open model frameworks, open blockchain networks), rapid experimentation, and permissionless collaboration. The result is a deep pool of talent operating at the intersection of both fields, creating a melting pot of ideas.”

🚨NEW: President Trump just praised the @CFTC and @ChairmanSelig’s fight for federal preemption over prediction markets while touting America as the Crypto/Bitcoin Capital of the World.
“It is a major industry and we must protect it.”
Grateful for those who continue to drive mind expansion rather than support dramatic narratives.
Classic social media mindset - “if you like apples then you must hate oranges” - ppl justify & judge to feel comfortable with their own stories/opinions.
Those who say "DTCC chose Stellar, XRP is finished" are the ones who think blockchain technology consists of just a single playground.
Think of it like a factory, Stellar is the system that packages and labels the products inside the factory; XRP, on the other hand, is the massive highway and logistics network that transports those products to ports worldwide in milliseconds.
DTCC starting to tokenize assets on Stellar will only accelerate the asset volume (quadrillions of dollars) flowing onto the digital finance highway. As this volume hits the market, the only bridge asset capable of absorbing that massive liquidity will once again be XRP
While may bother some of the big players in TradFi involved in derivatives & trading exposures as normal practice, it’s a practical step that allows the market to test blockchain benefits first (settlements, transparency, etc), and protects the bottom line (digital representations of real underlying shares) while safeguarding investor interests of assets with substance. There’s room for blockchain & AI-integrated finance to evolve from there.
I appreciate the interest in--but not the hyperbole about--the contemplated innovation exemption for the onchain trading of tokenized NMS stock. Keep in mind: I've always expected that it'd be limited in scope & would facilitate trading only of digital representations of the same underlying equity security that an investor could purchase in the secondary market today, not synthetics.
This is absolutely insane.
President Trump is currently flying to China with all of the following people to request "deals" with China's President Xi:
1. Elon Musk, Tesla and SpaceX CEO
2. Jensen Huang, Nvidia CEO
3. Tim Cook, Apple CEO
4. Larry Fink, BlackRock CEO
5. Stephen Schwarzman, Blackstone CEO
6. Kelly Ortberg, Boeing CEO
7. Brian Sikes, Cargill CEO
8. Jane Fraser, Citigroup CEO
9. Larry Culp, General Electric CEO
10. David Solomon, Goldman Sachs CEO
11. Sanjay Mehrotra, Micron CEO
12. Cristiano Amon, Qualcomm CEO
President Trump also says there are "many other" CEOs joining him on the trip who have not yet been disclosed.
Never in history has such a trip even remotely near this scale and caliber occurred.
This Trump-Xi meeting is far bigger than most realize.

There appears to be a housing bill…inside the crypto bill. 🧐
Pages 300–309 lay out the ‘Build Now Act’ which looks to create a federal program designed to encourage local housing growth.

(2022-2023) 3 yrs ago the hot topic was TradFi/DeFi “merge.”
(2024) Then tokenized RWAs went mainstream.
(2025) Now we begin to have regulatory clarity, and they’re literally hiring talent to make the “merge” real.
Public sectors always buy into private sector disruption at undeniable scale. They’ve been testing & building it, & the industry is already merging from the inside out.
Claude ads are everywhere on X - Not by using paid direct ads, but by free & paid X accounts, influencers/KOLs - giving free education as value, to gain subscriptions. Word of mouth “agentic” level achieved.
@claudeai is nailing hard value marketing.
