@jdorman81 Any thoughts on $nest? Early stage dex on hyperevm. No burns as far as i can tell but 100% of rev goes to token holders + hype componant

[Laszlo Szabo @laszlo__szabo]

For years, I’ve watched the same pattern repeat itself: institutions rebuilding the same onchain infrastructure, from private blockchains to internal sandbox tooling, each operating in isolation. Fragmented systems. Disconnected. No shared foundation.

The issue was never a lack of products. It was the absence of rails: a unified layer where DeFi and real-world assets can truly converge.

That’s exactly what we’ve been building at @railnet_org.

Today, we’re launching the Railnet App, and I’m incredibly proud of what the team has delivered.

The Railnet App is a single interface for institutions and high-net-worth individuals to access managed and non-custodial strategies across BTC, ETH, and stablecoins from anywhere in the world, at the tip of a wallet. These onchain strategies combine real-world assets and DeFi while offering full position transparency, audit-ready data, and removing the need for institutions to build infrastructure themselves.

These strategies are managed by tier-1 regulated asset managers, including @CoinSharesCo and @monarq_mgmt by @FalconXGlobal, both live on the platform today.

This is only the beginning 🫡

Getting on the train!

[Railnet @railnet_org]

Finance is moving onchain. But it's fragmented — everyone building in isolation, for themselves.

The missing layer is now live.

The Railnet App: one interface for institutions to access managed DeFi + RWA strategies, track every position, and stay audit-ready by default.

The elephant in the room for onchain yield in crypto is Bitcoin 🐘

Most of our clients hold billions in BTC that generate no yield. Today, only ~1.6% of BTC (about $21B out of a $1.35T asset class) is productive, for a few key reasons:

→ BTC is not natively yield-bearing like ETH or SOL
→ Since FTX, centralized lending desks have largely disappeared (e.g. Genesis)
→ The “Bitcoin staking” narrative has lost momentum post-FTX
→ Bitcoin holders tend to be particularly cautious when putting their assets to work

We are addressing this with @railnet_org, in partnership with @monarq_mgmt, the asset management arm of @FalconXGlobal.

Led by @ShiliangTang and a team with backgrounds at @TowerVentures and @Point72Careers, Monarq has developed a strategy that takes BTC as input and allocates it across DeFi and RWA opportunities. The approach is multi-venue, risk-managed, and fully transparent, targeting up to 6% yield on BTC.

Railnet provides the orchestration layer: configurable risk controls, real-time accounting across positions, and fully auditable onchain execution. Allocators can see exactly where capital is deployed and how yield is generated.

Excited to help shape the future of onchain asset management and make billions of Bitcoin productive again🚶

PS: Tomorrow, we are releasing a Railnet Talks episode with Shiliang Tang from Monarq Asset Management. We go deeper into what an institutional approach to BTC yield really means, why it is difficult to execute well, and what the market is missing today.

Stay tuned 👀

@doublezero this is huge! Congrats!

What if platforms could plug into any onchain yield source through a single infrastructure?

That's Kiln OmniVault, live today with $600M+ TVL and the first TradFi managers coming onchain soon

[Connor @Crypto_Condor]

Check out my recent blog post covering @doublezero

[Kiln 🧱🔥 @Kiln_finance]

⚡ How do you make Solana faster? Fix the network layer.

@doublezero is building a decentralized networking backbone for validators, already live with 170M+ SOL staked.

Our latest blog covers how it works, why it matters, the 2Z token, and risks to watch ��

[Connor @Crypto_Condor]

Looking forward to seeing folks at ETH Denver!

[Kiln 🧱🔥 @Kiln_finance]

Heading to ETH Denver? Our Protocol Specialist @Crypto_Condor will be there all week.

If you want to talk staking, tokenization, or DeFi, grab him for a coffee. He's always up for a good conversation about what's actually working onchain.

See you in Denver 🏔️

Seeing the future in real time

[Solana @solana]

The future of capital formation is happening on Solana.

$600M raised in 12 minutes.
Zero bankers.
All while Wall Street was closed.

Let’s break down what just happened with Pump’s raise.
