Founder of Volmex & BVIV @ColeGotTweets on @dimetvhq talking about why vaults work:
"vaults are a great form factor for institutions and retail to access yield products and other structures. It makes it really simple to get a particular exposure. It's a very passive and simple product and can potentially onboard a lot of users to DeFi, yield stuff, different derivative strategies."
VTFs execute complex vol strategies 24/7. fully on-chain. for everyone.

The IP Stack - how to turn one story into multiple revenue streams before you ever land a distribution deal:
Characters → merch.
Lore → Patreon.
Shorts → proof of concept.
Feature → negotiating leverage.
Own the stack. Own the leverage.
Aave V4’s modular lending architecture represents the next generation of lending protocols.
Its hub-and-spoke design can support virtually any credit use case.
Through Babylon, users can leverage native Bitcoin as collateral to borrow from Aave.
Aave V4 is designed to power lending markets for native assets, securities, and a wide range of credit use cases, both existing and yet to be imagined.
Partnerships can unlock opportunities neither side could achieve alone.
@dntse, Co-Founder of @babylonlabs_io, and @MarkZalan_, CEO of @GoMining, joined @DavidThaDegen to discuss their collaboration and what they're working toward together.

The Temp checked post on the @aave governance forum shares a lot of quality insights about TBV design and Aave v4.
TLDR
- The staking protocol proved the value of trustless and native infra. Over 72k staked at peak with 51k currently staked. TBV extends the same trustless and native infra for a much large range of use cases.
- TBV is chain and application agnostic. The first chain integration with ethereum makes sense it's the home of DeFi and the first integrated application @aave v4 also makes sense, the largest TVL and biggest use case - Lending
- Aave v4 allows customised spokes and an isolated environment both necessary for Bitcoin Collateral
- First native BTC collateral solution on Aave v4
- Opens the door to vertical integrations on top of TBV (post collateral) and Aave v4 (borrow ERC-20 stables)
Thoughtful insights from @alphaleaked on @aave v4 crossing the $100M milestone organically.
There is already clear demand for Bitcoin as collateral in DeFi.
Great to see native Bitcoin collateral via the Trustless Babylon Market highlighted as part of Aave v4's asset strategy.
Fans want to participate. Most platforms only let them react.
Lamina1 Spaces lets creators launch quests, collect ideas, or actual artwork, reward members with rep, and turn audience input into useful signal for future drops.
Example: where should Owen go, next episode?
Zero-fee on/off-ramps removes one of the biggest hurdles to DeFi adoption.
This is a big step toward bringing the next wave of users on-chain.
Congrats to the @aave team.
Creative communities need more than chat and good intentions.
Lamina1 Spaces adds a contribution ledger for offers, reviews, milestones, disputes, cash, equity, and activity history.
The work becomes visible. The record becomes manageable.
Loryn Brantz’s Good Advice Cupcake dispute is a creator-rights warning for every animator.
If a character carries your voice, personality, or authorship, lock down consent, credit, participation, and AI-use terms before it becomes someone else’s scalable IP.
Last year, Youtube consisted of 12.7% of total streaming time, beating Disney+(9.9%) and Netflix (8.4%)
The 2026 Nostradamus report says film, TV, streaming, creator media, fandom, and games are collapsing into one audiovisual ecosystem
It will be defined by fan participation

Community is more than a member count.
Lamina1 Spaces surfaces teams, active members, reputation, project credit, and high-signal contributors in one directory.
Creators can see who is showing up before the best people disappear into the feed.
Australia’s ACTF and Screen Australia Kids IP Incubator has funded 3 digital-first projects launching on YouTube.
Indie animators should study the shape: clear audience, shippable format, repeatable release plan, rights map, and proof of demand.
Introducing Lamina1 Spaces V2
Over the next 10 days, we’ll share a look behind the curtain at the new Spaces product - ahead of public release.
First up: the IP hub.
A home base for creators, community, content, crowdfunding, quests, contributions, and co-ownership.
Animators, this is a real opportunity to study.
ABEMA’s Project PRISMation is now accepting worldwide pilot proposals from creators and small teams. The ask is specific: original anime pilots around 5 to 10 minutes, with strong character appeal, a distinct world, and a future commercial expansion plan.
Three projects will be selected for funding and support across casting, translation, promotion, licensing, ABEMA release, and festival/event appearances. Professional status is optional, but applicants need prior experience completing animation work and the ability to communicate in Japanese or English.
The useful takeaway is the application shape. They are asking for both the film and the business path around it.
If you are building original animation, start packaging your project that way now: pilot, audience, world, rights position, expansion lanes, and the next commercial step.
Beautiful frames open the door. A clear ownership and expansion plan gives partners something to build around without swallowing the whole IP.
BITCOIN PIZZA DAY 🍕₿
Every May 22nd, the crypto community celebrates #BitcoinPizzaDay — the most iconic transaction in crypto history.
Back in 2010, paid 10,000 $BTC for two pizzas from.
At the time, it was worth only around $40.
Today, that same 10,000 BTC would be worth an unimaginable fortune 🤯
2010: $0.004
2015: $241
2020: $9,060
2023: $26,774
2024: $70,190
2025: $110,568
Today: $77,595
But without those two pizzas, #Bitcoin might never have become what it is today.
Imagine holding those 10,000 BTC until now… 🍕💀
