Ethereum, Arc, and Base lead euro stablecoin market cap growth over the past 30 days:
1. Ethereum: +$32.1M
2. Arc: +$6.2M
3. Base: +$1.6M
Combined increase: $39.9M
The most bullish AMM news today is not the official statement, but the comment letter from SEC Commissioner @HesterPeirce that went along with it
“Truly decentralized systems that are driven by autonomous software… do not need need an exemption” (Aka normal permissionless Uniswap)
The exemption applies to permissioned pools on Uniswap v4, creating a pathway for compliant trading in the US for assets and users where this is needed
This can be incredibly useful for amm adoption, and we will be submitting a comment letter with proposed improvements

@plusheadcom@StarPlatinum_ I think so too.
If it’s meant as a promotion for Robinhood’s stock, then I can understand it, but ordinary investors and users are probably just watching without taking any action.
In DeFi, Uniswap V4 is attracting tokenized stock deposits faster than any other venue
V4 now holds $65.9M, while V3 holds another $34.0M
Together, they account for $99.9M, or 44% of all tokenized stocks deposited into DeFi venues
🚨 ROBINHOOD CHAIN IS ABSOLUTELY CRUSHING EVERY MAJOR BLOCKCHAIN IN REVENUE.
It generated $1.91M in 24 hours.
Thats more than TRON, BSC, Base, Solana, Polygon and Ethereum combined.
Why Serious Builders Still Choose Ethereum?
Recently, I’ve seen a lot of debate over which chain Robinhood should have built on, with many arguing that Ethereum is too slow and expensive.
But I think that misses the bigger picture.
If low fees and speed were everything, why do so many serious organizations continue building around Ethereum?
The recent Liquid Network hack is a good reminder of what matters when billions are at stake: security, reliability and long-term infrastructure.
Ethereum’s biggest value isn’t being the fastest or cheapest chain.
It’s providing a trusted settlement layer where builders can create their own execution environments while still benefiting from Ethereum’s security, liquidity and ecosystem.
Fees can improve. UX can improve.
But security and trust are much harder to rebuild.
That’s why I think the Robinhood debate has a deeper answer: many builders still choose Ethereum because they’re optimizing for where their product can work best over the next 5 - 10 years, not just the cost of today’s transaction.
