What's the ultimate goal of the RWA Protocol?
Tokenize everything imaginable.
Today, we're comparing @EpicOnChain with other RWA-centric protocols and how it distinct on its approach to accelerate the RWA tokenization.
Join us for the deep dive 🧵
It seems like Cysic is cooking together something
Soon they might deliver a @cysic_xyz package, what do you think will be in it?
Will they announce their NFT computefi nodes?
RWAs are heating up again.
Tbh, tokenizing “everything imaginable” isn’t just a tagline - it’s a massive technical and regulatory lift.
@EpicOnChain’s approach is worth watching:
+ build on Optimism
+ secure Ripple’s backing
+ bootstrap usage via native apps and DeFi incentives.
➜ It’s a high-velocity RWA experiment.
$EPIC is still small-cap, but so were many L2s before they found PMF.
The real question isn’t whether RWAs will grow, but where that growth will anchor.
$RESOLV pushing higher after a volatile mid-week dip.
💭 Strong bounce from the $0.185–$0.19 range confirms it as a new demand zone
Volume is ticking up again and structure remains bullish if higher lows hold
♟️ What confirms strength now: price or participation?
YUSD yield + points stacking w this trio ↓
@aegis_im + @pendle_fi + @Penpiexyz_io
into yields but not using @pendle_fi?
now stack even more using @Penpiexyz_io
deep liquidity on @pendle_fi means you get good prices w/o much yield volatility (unless you're going to buy $100M of LP-sYUSD)
+ getting 5x Aegis points w/o vePENDLE is like a shadow strategy that only you're benefitting from
here's how to go about it 👇
1️⃣ mint and stake YUSD on @aegis_im

2️⃣ buy LP-sYUSD (4SEP2025) on @pendle_fi
3️⃣ deposit LP-sYUSD on @Penpiexyz_io
yield + points stackooor
➥ Unleash Money Market Capital Efficiency
What keeps you from using lending protocols?
Often, it's underwhelming yields and clunky UIs.
That was my struggle until @Evoq_Finance reeled me in.
Check out our 30s report 📖
...
— What is Evoq?
Evoq acts as a peer-to-peer lending optimizer protocol, enhancing the liquidity and risk management of existing pool-based lending protocols like @VenusProtocol and other upcoming protocols across various networks.
This mechanism offers better rates through supply-borrow matching up to 100% utilization and effectively addresses the capital inefficiencies that plagued pool-based lending protocols.
...
— Why Evoq?
⟶ @binance MVB 8 Winner
⟶ The first p2p lending optimizer on @BNBCHAIN
⟶ 100% matching efficiency with $1B+ available liquidity
⟶ 90% potential reduced spread with better supply and borrow rates
⟶ 40% projection APY from Evoq Points
⟶ Audit by @HashDit and @zokyo_io
⟶ Internal rumor for multi-chain expansion to @HyperliquidX HyperEVM with multiplier and early access benefit for BNB users
⟶ Expected TGE Q4 2025
...
— Alpha Strategy with Evoq (NFA + DYOR)
We now know that Evoq TGE will happen soon, with plans to expand into HyperEVM. This is the perfect time to enhance our DeFi strategy and earn more Evoq Points and yields.
✧ Visit @Liquidity_Land and use this link: https://t.co/75eJg7FNyU to get 100% Evoq Points Boost
✧ Supply $USDT on Evoq to earn approximately 5.44% APY plus Evoq Points
✧ Borrow $BTCB at around 0.91% APY plus Evoq Points
✧ Optionally, you can mint an Evoqi NFT to receive a 2x baseline point boost.
From this point, you can loop back to Evoq to accumulate more Evoq Points and compounded yield APY, or swap your BNB for other assets, and consider LP them into @pendle_fi or @PancakeSwap.
...
— Wrap-Up
One reason I'm focusing on the money market protocol is the abundance of DeFi strategies available. I've discovered that Evoq effectively addresses inefficiency on the BNB Chain and hooked up immediately.
With their upcoming TGE and the rumored HyperEVM expansion, there's every reason to get involved.
Victory favors the prepared, and everyone appreciates juicy yields.
You only become an ecosystem when you have self-sustainable projects within the ecosystem
Peaq decided to build a niche ecosystem fully focused on DePIN and then building everything around to support founders/builders to launch on @peaq
From this they have managed to attract a large number of strong projects within varied categories that many have managed to raise funds and go-to-market.
Imagine what this map will look like in 2-3 years from now?

Back in February, I highlighted how undervalued Maple was.
$570M of TVL, a growing product pipeline, and a $85M market cap.
Five months later, TVL is $3.2B (+460%) and $SYRUP trades 5.4x higher.
Here's what happened and why Maple is still mispriced.
🗓️ MARCH
@bitwise. one of the largest crypto asset managers, allocated capital to Maple, further solidifying Maple’s growing reputation among tradFi players.
In the same month, Maple got listed on Coinbase and was added to @Grayscale’s Top 20 Index for Q2 2025.
Two validations from major players in the industry that strengthen Maple's leading position in the institutional RWA lending sector.
Lastly, syrupUSDC went live on Morpho, curated by @gauntlet_xyz and @MEVCapital.
🗓️ APRIL
In April, Maple announced a key integration with Spark.
Spark allocated an initial $50 million USDC into SyrupUSDC to diversify into institutional credit markets.
This partnership strengthens Maple’s positioning as a go-to asset manager for both DeFi-native and traditional players.
🗓️ MAY
May was one of the best months for Maple, as the protocol saw its TVL grow by 61%, from $1.1B to $1.9B.
In this month, the team announced probably the most bullish news of this year, a deal to secure Bitcoin-backed credit facility with @Official_Cantor, a major investment bank managing $15B in capital.
This facility could scale up to $2 billion, offering institutional investors leverage on their BTC holdings.
🗓️ JUNE
In collaboration with @chainlink, @KaminoFinance, @Paxos, @jito_sol, and @orca_so, Maple launched syrupUSDC on Solana, along with $500k of incentives to bootstrap its TVL.
Maple also integrated with Lido, introducing a stablecoin credit lines backed by $stETH.
Before we move on, a few stats worth highlighting:
• $8.4B in total loans originated.
• $1.2B in active loans.
• ~$9M in annualized revenue.
• syrupUSDC almost at $1B TVL while providing an average 6.5% APY.
🗝️ WHAT'S THE SECRET BEHIND THIS GROWTH?
1. DeFi Composability
Integrations into @eulerfinance, @KaminoFinance, @pendle_fi, and other DeFi protocols have played a key role, attracting yield farmers to engage in loop and PT/YT strategies for higher yields.
2. Bitcoin
Out of $1.1B TVL of SyrupUSDC 90% is in Bitcoin.
This is a trend that will even accelerate from here, in my opinion. As Bitcoin continues to gain interest from tradFi, more and more entities will seek ways to make their capital work and not sit idle.
I talked deeply about BTC lending in this article. I highly suggest you reading it:
https://t.co/l5noJm8G4z
3. The Pivot
Unlike its earlier focus (undercollateralized loans), Maple is now fully focused on overcollateralized lending (syrupUSDC currently has a 160.7% collateralization ratio), and this has heavily reduced default risks and, by consequence, made the platform more attractive for individuals and institutions.
🖊️ FINAL THOUGHTS
Maple has experienced impressive growth in recent months, with its TVL climbing to over $3B.
At the beginning of the year, the team stated their goal for 2025 was to reach $4B in TVL by the end of the year across the following distributions:
$1B in syrupUSDC/USDT
$1.5B in their BTC yield product
$1.5B from the rest of their Maple Institutional product suite
Although the allocation might differ from the original vision, Maple is on the path to smash this goal and keep capture market share over the coming months.
This growth highlights both the increasing demand for high-quality yields among accredited investors and the impact of SyrupUSDC, which opened up institutional yield to retail users.
Then DeFi composability amplified the interest, showing just how powerful integrations with platforms like Pendle, Euler, Morpho, & co, can be when you’re bootstrapping or scaling a product.
TradFi players are starting to catch up on this, and we saw it when BlackRock’s $BUIDL was integrated with Euler a month ago. I expect to see a lot more of this in the coming months.
On the other hand, it's fair to note that Maple has a long way to go. The platform still needs to prove it can sustain steady growth for its active loans, which are fundamental as the yield generated by syrupUSDC depends directly on them.
Nevertheless, I believe the team will be able to keep the momentum and ultimately position the protocol as the bridge between DeFi and tradFi, facilitating institutional access to DeFi.
After this trade, I’ll pause on longs and wait to see if #BTC pulls back to the 113K–111K zone. Most #altcoins are already showing signs of continuous correction.
If you're buying spot, consider watching the nearest daily support levels on your alts for potential entries.
I’m currently only holding a small amount of #SOL, #JUP, and #CAKE.
