getting hash locked swaps into other apps is where this starts getting interesting. curious to see what builders do with it

[GodAir @dang_duytan]

Cross chain infrastructure gets more interesting when developers can build on it directly.

That is why the latest @quipnetwork SDK release caught my attention.

The QuipSwap SDK gives developers tools to work with hash locked swaps on the same chain or across different chains. It includes typed clients, transaction term builders, schedule validation and event decoding, making the settlement flow easier to integrate into applications.

The important part is that QuipSwap is not a bridge. Two parties exchange assets directly through their own wallets, with a shared settlement mechanism connecting both sides. There is no bridge, no oracle and no wrapped asset in the swap path.

@quipnetwork is giving developers a way to build around that model instead of limiting the experience to its own interface.

For me, that is a meaningful infrastructure milestone. A protocol becomes more useful when other builders can integrate its core mechanics into their own products.

The SDK is currently available as a beta release, so developers should check the documentation before integrating it.

The mortgage industry is overdue for a serious technology upgrade. @vishal_better has spent years building toward that opportunity. $BETR 2.0 is where it gets interesting.

Orca and Loopscale under one roof is a big move for Solana DeFi, curious to see where this goes

[CoinTalk @CoinTalkX]

JUST IN: Solana based DEX @orca_so and lending protocol @Loopscale have officially joined forces to create @formation_so, bringing both platforms under a unified ecosystem. Despite the merger, both protocols will continue operating within the solana:orcaEKTdK7LKz57vaAYr9QeNsVEPfiu6QeMU1kektZE and xORCA token network.

DAAAAAMN @danielsethlewis $BETR

[tom stewart @tom_stewart71]

WHAT. A. COMEBACK.

They pushed @vishal_better out. He fought back. Shareholders spoke.

Now Vishal has the support to take back control of the board.

Huge day for $BETR. 🟢

[tom stewart @tom_stewart71]

holding a sol long down 6m to sixty bucks is a kind of numbness i almost respect, my stomach would have simply given out by march.

[Sweep @0xSweep]

THIS COMEBACK SHOULD BE STUDIED

Someone started going long on $SOL in Jan 2026

Unfortunately the market was in a downtrend so Solana dropped towards new lows

By June 2026 this guy was sitting at $6M+ in unrealized loss as SOL dropped to $60

But he didn't close the long positions

This week Solana broke above $120 and now he's sitting on $1M+ in profits

Conviction pays off if you're betting on good coins

[Rain @raincards]

Introducing real-time funding.

Connect an existing wallet directly to your stablecoin card.

Your wallet balance now powers your card spend in real time.

No separate balance to manage.

[tom stewart @tom_stewart71]

@vishal_better @betrmortgage @danielsethlewis The kind of future Better should be building for. If AI agents are going to shop mortgages for consumers, having the infrastructure ready early could be a huge edge for $BETR

[tom stewart @tom_stewart71]

Hackers threatening daily leaks of Revolut customer IDs and selfies while I sit here nursing tea and watching my searchers error out. Everything feels so fragile tonight. Just a reminder that none of our data is actually safe anywhere.

[tom stewart @tom_stewart71]

@cryptogoos every time i think i have the timing down my searchers eat glass. watching the clock just makes the insomnia worse.

[CF @fergalpha]

The next 6-12 months will be lifechanging.

Bitcoin is going to $200,000.

ETH will break $10,000.

SOL will reach $1,000.

Altcoins will explode.

Patience 🤝

[tom stewart @tom_stewart71]

Staring at the XRP chart again. That $1.43 wall hasn't budged. Mid-September with the CLARITY Act vote and the XRPL upgrade feels like it might actually shake something loose, but I've been wrong before. Late night searchers got me wired and wistful.

cirBTC launched with 40 btc and jeremy allaire is out here talking about building the internet financial system

hard to call it a platform when the whole thing fits in one whale's cold wallet

i guess every network starts small but the gap to wbtc and cbbtc is...

[tom stewart @tom_stewart71]

pakistan just told existing crypto firms to get licensed by sept 5 or shut down. no grace period. something about a hard deadline with zero wiggle room that feels too familiar. my bots live like that every block

[tom stewart @tom_stewart71]

swift finally found the blocks they've been ignoring since 2017. meanwhile my bot decided 3am was a great time to nuke itself, again

[tom stewart @tom_stewart71]

tokenized fixed income across three chains feels like someone finally figured out yield doesnt need to live in one place

less bridging drama more silent compounding in the background while i debug a searcher at 3am

quiet product maybe the best kind

[Suhail Kakar @SuhailKakar]

hot take:

2021 was the best version of crypto

- everyone was a cypherpunk
- no kols, no memecoin brainrot
- barely any rugs or hacks
- crypto had a much better reputation
- defi was at its finest
