I think no matter which direction you're hoping for next for Bitcoin, everyone would appreciate getting out of the 64k range.
Luckily, the past two bear market ranges have both lasted about 68 days, which will be here in less than a week.
Hopefully some increased volatility then to keep things interesting
If you could CTO any @CronosNetwork NFT collection, which one would it be, and why?
Mine:
1. @CronosCruisers – I really love art. No updates for over 2 years. I'm still hoping @Fwiz / Cronos Labs would let the community take it over. I know CDC owns ~80% of the NFTs, but there's always a way.
2. Argonauts – I love the art. If there was enough interest from the community, I'd be happy to help introduce some utilities and see if we could bring the collection back to life.
Curious to hear everyone else's picks 👀
$ANSEM ripping from 0 to $400 million in one week
a new memecoin on Robinhood chain ripping from 0 to $145m in just days
multiple runners spawning on BNB Chain, each ripping from 0 to $70m+ within 24 hours
all of these are signs that liquidity conditions are changing (for the better!)
especially with all of this happening near the bear market lows
and they're unironically incredibly bullish for $USELESS, which has by far the strongest-looking chart of any established memecoin and is just starting to break out after a multi-month consolidation
interestingly, USELESS has held up remarkably well through all of these recent events
it's trading higher than it was before ANSEM launched a week ago, higher than before the recent BNB runners, and is holding up relatively well despite the Robinhood chain liquidity suck
you can't say the same thing about ANY other established memecoin. not a single one!
i've seen so many people waiting for lower entries as USELESS rallied from its $25m lows to $100m
'i'll buy once $BTC makes new lows'
only for BTC to make new lows while USELESS held strong, continued making higher highs and higher lows, and even printed new highs
but now overall liquidity conditions are starting to improve
and this looks exactly like the kind of environment you see before an established, oversold memecoin like USELESS goes on a nasty parabolic run
i think the next wave of parabolic memecoin moves is going to catch a lot of people completely off guard...
and USELESS is going to lead it
The Solana Frontier Hackathon by @colosseum just wrapped as the largest crypto hackathon on record. More than 10,000 builders across more than 150 countries submitted 2,857 projects.
Reflect was a sponsor alongside @phantom, @coinbase, @Raydium and others.
The grand prize went to @crowdbrainai, a robotics DePIN project.
We supported Frontier because we wanted to see what builders would do with stablecoins across the Solana ecosystem. There were no dedicated tracks or category winners, but a pattern stood out to us: stablecoins are no longer just products people build, they are becoming infra people build on. We wanted to highlight teams building with stablecoins that formed part of the hackathon:
• @myStableCorp gets you set up to run a real company when you're paid in stables. They incorporate you with a US entity quickly, give you a bank account, and let you invoice clients in USDC or fiat, with tax and compliance, including India-specific.
• @DashXHQ is an India off-ramp. Get paid in USDC from anywhere, it hits your Indian bank in INR in about two minutes, and all the compliance paperwork your accountant needs gets generated automatically.
• @my_mana_ is a neobank for Filipinos abroad. Dollar accounts, savings, and a Visa card that works globally. For people working outside their country while being able to support their family back home.
• Envelope by @notarkoroy lets you pay team members around the world without putting everyone's salary on the public ledger.
• SecondSet by @ncrypto_0 brings real accounts payable to paying contractors and vendors in stablecoins. Payment requests, approvals, and an audit trail tying every sign-off to the onchain transaction.
• @hiihodl is a checking account for the remote economy. Receive stablecoins from anywhere and spend, save, or move them, with no seed phrases, gas, or chain switching.
• @sentinelprotoc offers flight delay insurance in stablecoins. When a delay hits the threshold, the payout happens automatically.
• @fossapay offers payment rails for African neobanks and businesses, built for both local and cross-border money movement.
• Xentra by @_Kamalkt gets farmers paid in stablecoins for crops, instead of waiting on cash or slow bank transfers.
• Ocean Sense by @gabrululu allows small-scale fishermen to run ocean sensors and get paid automatically in a stablecoin pegged to their own currency.
• @riven_cash gives AI agents their own stablecoin wallet with spending limits, so they can pay for things without touching main wallets or funds.
• @Xeno_Money is a stablecoin card network, like Apple Pay for crypto. Tap to pay on the card machines shops already have, self-custodial, no chargebacks.
• @SaySoFun lets you borrow stablecoins against a live prediction market bet instead of letting that money sit idle until resolution.
• @APTreeio turns your stablecoins or local cash into yield with one tap, without any DeFi knowledge needed.
• @norafinancexyz offers Brazilian Real stablecoin infrastructure for neobanks and payment apps to plug into.
• Lifted Finance by @dima_vazhenin gives leveraged stablecoin looping with built-in protection if the yield turns negative.
• @SP3NDdotshop lets you buy directly from Amazon or eBay with stablecoins.
Neobanks, payroll tools, card networks, insurance products, AP systems, agent wallets, all different products, but underneath every one of them, the same layer: a stablecoin.
Frontier has made one thing clear: stablecoins are becoming the foundation for real financial workflows. Reflect is building infrastructure for that layer, so founders don’t have to keep rebuilding the floor underneath them.
If you're building with stablecoins, don't hesitate to reach out.
🚨Everyone is watching Robinhood Chain for the memecoins.
I think they’re missing the bigger story.
Robinhood is quietly building one of the strongest bridges between TradFi and onchain finance.
While many still see @RobinhoodApp as a commission-free brokerage, it has evolved into a financial ecosystem spanning stocks, crypto, prediction markets, retirement, banking, RWAs, and now its own Ethereum L2 powered by @arbitrum Orbit.
The numbers explain why this matters.
• 27.7M funded customers
• $377B platform assets
• $67.8B net deposits (last 12 months)
• 4.3M Robinhood Gold subscribers (+36% YoY)
• $27.4B retirement assets (+90%)
• $17B margin book (+93%)
This isn’t just user growth.
It’s sticky capital that can eventually move onchain.
Robinhood is also reducing its dependence on crypto cycles.
Crypto revenue fell 47% YoY to $134M.
Meanwhile:
• Prediction markets revenue surged 320%.
• Net interest income grew 24%.
• Gold subscriptions continued accelerating.
Multiple revenue streams make the business more resilient ahead of its onchain expansion.
Now comes the biggest catalyst.
Robinhood Chain.
A permissionless Ethereum L2 built on @arbitrum Orbit, bringing tokenized stocks, ETFs, RWAs, and DeFi onto one network.
Tokenized equities won’t just be investments they can become:
• collateral
• lending assets
• trading pairs
• DeFi liquidity
Adoption came quickly.
Within days, Robinhood Chain surpassed $100M TVL, with much of the liquidity flowing into @Morpho through Robinhood Earn.
Builders are already following.
→ @Rialto_xyz is developing execution infrastructure for crypto, tokenized equities, ETFs, and commodities.
Current traction:
• $129K annualized fees
• $1.54M ATH daily DEX volume
• $1.47M 30-day DEX volume
→ @Arcus_xyz, built by dYdX Labs, is expanding the derivatives layer through self-custodial spot trading, Stock Tokens, and perpetuals.
Current metrics:
• $1.7M perpetual volume
• $337K open interest
The metrics are still early, but experienced teams are already building.
Major protocols including @Uniswap, @PancakeSwap, @chainlink, @LayerZero_Core, @maplefinance, and @ethena have also deployed, strengthening the ecosystem.
The network is already showing meaningful traction.
• 194K daily active users in week one
• $70M+ bridged ETH
• ~46,700 ETH TVL
• ~$39K daily protocol revenue
• ~$14M annualized revenue
ETH benefits throughout the stack as the gas token, primary trading pair, and settlement layer.
Execution still needs improvement.
Transaction failure rates reportedly approached 40% during periods of heavy activity, highlighting scalability challenges as adoption grows.
Meanwhile, @arbitrum also benefits, with many investors viewing $ARB as a proxy for Robinhood Chain adoption.
Yes, memecoins like $CASHCAT and $KITSU are drawing attention.
But the bigger opportunity is whether Robinhood can bring millions of traditional investors onchain through an experience they already know.
If it succeeds, this could become one of crypto’s biggest onboarding events.
✍️My Take:
Robinhood Chain isn’t just another blockchain. It’s infrastructure designed to connect TradFi capital with onchain finance. Memecoins may dominate today’s headlines, but tokenized equities, RWAs, and seamless retail onboarding are the trends that matter over the long term.
Rare moment where my professional and personal worlds collide: XRP is now the first crypto on the jersey of a major college athletics program, at my alma mater.
XRP Family, meet the Jayhawks. Rock Chalk!
🚨 BREAKING:
🇺🇸 US HOUSE WILL HOST A HEARING ON THE CRYPTO CLARITY ACT ON JULY 17
IF APPROVED, THIS ACT COULD INJECT OVER $1.5 TRILLION INTO THE MARKET
PRESIDENT TRUMP SAID THAT HE WILL SIGN IT "IMMEDIATELY"
THIS IS EXTREMELT BULLISH FOR CRYPTO!!
Aave DAO reached its first $1M in swap revenue since the Aave Will Win went live. This revenue stream brings transactional revenue streams into Aave besides AUM based fees.
More features to come to increase the surface with leverage tool, tx builder and V4 support in Aave Pro.
It's not only a rebranding from dYdX to @arcus_xyz; it's a whole new vision:
- Focusing on stock tokens, ETFs, equity perpetuals
- Partnership with @RobinhoodApp
- One of the first perp DEXs on Robinhood Chain
RWAs and institutional products are the market fit for Arcus now.
And it feels like the right path to walk on.
11,000 Banks Just Got Wired Into One Altcoin
The entire global banking system just got wired into crypto, and almost nobody noticed.
I break down what this means and how we position for it inside our group. Join at https://t.co/qmOq8xVJWI, the link is also in my bio.
You know the network that moves money between banks. It is called Swift, it connects more than 11,000 banks, and it has been the backbone of global finance for 50 years. Back in November 2025, Swift quietly switched on a blockchain layer. And the system routing messages between the banks and the blockchains is governed by Chainlink.
Chainlink already connects more than 70 blockchains and moved over 18 billion dollars in a single month. It also became the data layer feeding the US stock market as it gets tokenized. So Chainlink is now sitting underneath both the banking system and the stock market at the same time.
This is not theoretical. Around 47 banks across Europe and Korea are building to settle real currency trades in stablecoins, on a system built with Chainlink. Even Western Union, the 175 year old giant, launched its own stablecoin on Solana to move money outside of Swift.
Here is the part that should stop you. Chainlink has been a public coin anyone could buy since 2017. Nine years. And this is what they chose to build the future of the global economy on top of.
You do not get to position after the world figures this out. You position before.
Follow so you are early, not late.
The stablecoin market just hit a new all-time high.
That's happening while most people are focused on Bitcoin chopping around and altcoins going nowhere.
Capital keeps flowing into stablecoins.
Not out of crypto.
Into stablecoins.
The money is there.
The question is where it moves next. 👀
Hey #crofam 👋
For those that don't knew it yet, on the Cronos $CRO @Cronosapp page you will be able to change the language. If you are from Indonesia, Brazil, Philippines, Vietnam, Nigeria, Mexico, India and China you can enable it to your native language!
This is very valuable because not many people understand English and thats completely fine. In big populated countries like Nigeria, China or India for example not every single human will be able to understand English. To give this key feature to understand in a native language the app is very important to me. I hope more languages will be added as times goes on 🙏
