1/
For a decade, Web3 and TradFi argued.

In 2026, they're sitting at the same table.

In 10 days, Jenny Johnson (CEO @FTDA_US, $1.5T AUM) and @adam3us (Co-Founder, @Blockstream , inventor of Hashcash) open Proof of Talk 2026 on the same stage.

That fireside is the thesis of the entire event.

Introducing Covered Vaults.

DeFi vaults with built-in risk coverage, backed by real delegated capital, and enforced onchain 🧵👇

[Catalysis - Mainnet is live! @0xcatalysis]

DeFi’s first native risk coverage layer for vaults is almost here.

With vault-native risk coverage, we at Catalysis are embedding programmable downside protection directly into vault deposits.

Backed by restaked capital from @eigencloud earmarked for underwriting DeFi vault risks.

Here’s how it works🧵

[Jonathan Ludwig @theluddi]

@FANstrikefun just kicked off. still very early, but first signs are encouraging:

#4 in volume across all launchpads (behind pump, bonk, sugar)
#4 in revenue
#5 in graduates
#1 in graduation rate

all volume organic — no paid marketing.

grateful for the support so far.

sports capital markets (SCM) are set to become the next big category — and we’re just getting started.

[Christina @cXmac3do]

It's been months of baseless attacks against our team, partners, and myself

malicious demands for 20% of our tokens unlocked, smear ops, misleading the court

but the Gibraltar Supreme Court's full reversal of the freeze on 542M $PLAY tokens shows these industry bad actors' scheme has backfired. The freeze is court-branded "oppressive". I'm sole legal and beneficial owner of Ready Gibraltar. Team has been heads down building. PLAY is stronger than ever. @0xplay_network

🙋‍♂️ "What's one of the biggest problems in the crypto space?"
Due diligence.

🤷‍♂️ "Do you have a solution?"
Of course.

Humans are still animals at the end of the day, and in order for animals to survive the brain had to adapt to 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗸 𝗳𝗮𝘀𝘁. This paves the way for biases...

► Like the 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝗳𝗶𝗿𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗕𝗶𝗮𝘀 ◄

You have an idea in your head, and then you find the evidence to support it, cherry picking without realising.

🚑 We have a solution:

𝗗𝘂𝗲 𝗱𝗶𝗹𝗶𝗴𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗮𝘀 𝗮 𝘀𝗲𝗿𝘃𝗶𝗰𝗲.

We conduct due diligence for investors in a simple manner:

𝟭. You send us a pitch deck & other docs
𝟮. We send back a ~10 page report within 72 hours analyzing the team, business model, tokenomics, market, and more.

We often see projects get investment that we found incredible red flags with and told our clients to avoid - founders scamming in the past, false cap tables, tech not being feasible, and more.
