Aave has no exposure to Resolv USR. Resolv is a liquidity provider on Aave, supplying its backing assets to the protocol. These assets remain safe, as the backing itself was unaffected. Resolv will be able to exit gracefully and already started to repay the debt. There are no adverse effects on Aave liquidity providers, and zero impact on the Aave Protocol.

Don’t do this. Think like a proper tech co and build a product and a business. Slap token in bull

BlackRock goes into Uniswap. Apollo goes into Morpho. Tokenized assets come onchain for reduced settlement, better fees, and composability with DeFi. @chainyoda explains why institutions aren't bothered by the current market chaos: "They plan in 10, 20, 30-year time frames. They've been around more than 100 years. They've seen so much." While retail panic-sells into every red candle, institutions are locking in positions at composability prices that will compound for decades.

@mdudas @serpinxbt Not sure why people are bearish. Pump is a highly addictive platform perfectly poised to tap in to Gen Z’s predisposition towards financial nihilism and high risk gambling outcomes. Seems like a no brainer to me

There’s still about $250B - $500B of enterprise value in CEXs that will inevitably flow to DEXs as they continue winning share. Not all of that is capturable. Still, quantifiably it’s the largest opportunity since the “L1 trade”, and will only expand in the coming years as the sector grows and the leaders demonstrate platform potential. The breakout success of RWA trading on perp DEXs is the writing on the wall.

"Avoid business incentives that lead to slop" applies to crypto as well. The most profitable business model in crypto, outside of exchanges and stablecoin issuance, is launching a token quickly. https://t.co/LDdbHQrCsl

It just hit me that the primary unit of value in both crypto and AI is the “token” Who is build tokens that I can either use for spending / selling on a blockchain or for inference?

As we’re thinking about the evolution of blockchain, we need to ask the question: “Why is blockchain better than the status quo?” Too often, the answer is a lot of handwaving. Saying things like “reduced back-office cost” and “better liquidity” without being able to back it up. We launched the On-chain Public Equity Network (OPEN) with a clear blockchain value proposition. The current centralized markets like the NYSE, HKEX, etc. all work today. Allowing 24x7 trading isn’t the panacea here. But there are ways OPEN meaningfully moves the needle for the better. First, the centralized exchanges have gatekeepers – the introducing brokers – who control access. Want to trade on the Nasdaq? Get a brokerage account. On OPEN, stocks trade on a self-custody, self-settle limit order book marketplace. Show up with a compatible crypto wallet, get onboarded, and trade. OPEN isn’t part of a super-app – it’s the beginning of global wallet-centric finance where users are in control. Second, collateral for margin is generally narrowly limited to equities. With OPEN, users can stand up a collateral pool on Figure’s DeFi protocol Democratized Prime that includes any digital asset, including crypto. Again, wallet-centric where users are in control. Third, the stock loan process is obfuscated by the locate process. Lenders don’t know what borrowers are actually paying – and what the prime brokers are keeping for themselves. With OPEN, stock loan is done through a public order book on Democratized Prime, directly connecting borrowers and lenders. Again, wallet centric, user control. Finally, the current process involves costs, capital and limitations, like DTCC capital requirements. OPEN supports real time netting, giving users the same trading volume DTCC affords with the capital required for end of day netting. I’m excited Figure is partnering with BitGo to offer qualified custodial services and excited that Jump Trading is onboarding to support liquidity in what I think is an equity capital market that offers enough advantages to use instead of the old CEXs. A marketplace that is built around wallets with user control.

this is an incredible disincentive for any great early stage team to issue a futarchy based token pre-seed and seed stage startups are anything but linear or predictable in their growth, even with the best people and products if a team is looking over their shoulder at all times for the first proposal to liquidate their treasury due to a few months of tough metrics or a poor market for liquid tokens overall, they're cooked these teams need patient, supportive, useful capital to execute

a16z crypto outlined 17 key focus areas for the crypto industry in 2026, including better, more clever onramps/ offramps for stablecoins, advancing RWA and stablecoin tokenization in a more crypto-native way, stablecoins unlock the bank ledger upgrade cycle, internet becomes the bank, wealth management for all, from KYC to KYA, AI for substantive research tasks, invisible tax on the open web, privacy will be the most important moat in crypto, decentralized and quantum-resistant messaging systems, the rise of staked media, and the full unlocking of blockchain’s potential once legal frameworks align with technical architectures. https://t.co/e5zKlemBVa

@lighter_xyz seems like a good use case for ZKP. If I understand it correctly (and that's a big if, haven't looked much into it), it uses ZKP for integrity, not privacy. Even if the ZKP circuit or verifier has bugs, only the Lighter sequencer could exploit them. So you're still trusting them not to exploit their own bugs, but they presumably have an economic incentive not to attack their own system. Happy to hear thoughts from others who have better technical knowledge of Lighter

“Trust” wallet is a most fascinating name in cryptocurrency

According to CoinGlass' annual report, the total trading volume of the crypto derivatives market in 2025 was approximately $85.7 trillion, with an average daily trading volume of $264.5 billion. The total nominal value of forced liquidations for long and short positions throughout the year was around $150 billion, with daily liquidations averaging $400–500 million. In the RWA sector, on-chain US stock tokens became a new highlight in 2025, with the total market cap of stock tokens increasing by 2,695%. https://t.co/od69XTuu9T

one of the most prevalent narratives i see being pushed aggressively of late to explain the recent weakness in memecoins goes something like this 'crypto has changed for good. it is now being driven by institutions who are smart and do not have time for degen games. useless, vaporware memecoins and weak utility projects are dead for good. only tokens of revenue-generating protocols are worth buying' this narrative looks strong in theory, but it immediately collapses in the face of actual data let’s take a look at the performance of the tokens of the top 10 crypto protocols by revenue since Oct 10 - $PUMP down 70% from Oct 10 - $MET down 63% from TGE on Oct 23 - $JUP down 58% from Oct 10 - $LDO down 56% from Oct 10 - $HYPE down 48% from Oct 10 - $AAVE down 47% from Oct 10 - $BNB down 35% from Oct 10 - $UNI down 33% from Oct 10 (Tether and Circle were excluded since they currently do not have a token) the above is just data since the Oct 10 liquidations btw it doesn’t even take into account the fact that most of the so-called 'strong utility altcoins' have been stuck in a multi-year, or even multi-cycle, bear market while a lot of new memecoins have gone parabolic and created a generational wealth effect for an army of people this cycle like it or not, memecoins will once again bounce the hardest at the slightest clear sign that liquidity has returned to the market — as has been the case every other time this cycle you’d be better off buying $USELESS coin and chilling until liquidity conditions improve than 'investing' in a lot of the so-called 'strong utility altcoins' in the market today where you ultimately end up being exit liquidity for VCs and institutional investors that are up bajillions on 'useful' tokens they bought for pennies on the dollars and are now desperate to sell

I'm probably the only (or one of the very few) crypto guys who warned you about the dangers of indirect tokenization. Everyone else too busy celebrating the slightest arguable RWA wins even though most of the 'tokenized stocks' are illusory contracts backed by opaque offshore SPVs. Turns out these types of 'SPV' structures are generally illegal because violating issuer transfer restrictions, and other times are outright scams because they don't really hold the claimed shares at all or aren't actually giving you any rights to them. Tokenization has to be done the right way--direct, un-intermediated by the issuer, or if intermediated at least still with the issuer's consent & participation. I have been beating this drum since 2018 (https://t.co/dUWJiqrhxR) and my vision will win in the end, it's the only way that tokenization makes real sense. Mere economic exposure is not enough.

Doubt it. Solana will be an important player in payments but it has a noisy neighbour problem inspite of local fee markets once alon coins or NFTs ring again. Also fintechs want compliance not neutrality. Specialized payments chains eg Tempo, @noble_xyz and Arc will win this

DTCCs primary role is registry, which allows them to net transactions. The street has $50B of equity capital at DTCC on any given day. That isn't necessary in an atomically settled limit order book on blockchain. The registry service is trivial - a blockchain TA just tracks the token across wallet addresses. It's less involved - and much cheaper - than what a TA does today. You will still have custodians because the SEC requires that of funds (having a QC). You'll still have market makers. Broker dealers are less relevant because you don't need an introducing broker to attach to the ATS to trade - you just need a wallet that will work. Your custodian could displace your broker dealer, for example. No dumb quesitons - this is all greenfield and some of it will be learn as we go - but the change is coming.

The tokenization thing moves so slowly and the market is theoretically so large that you will never be late to starting your own RWA tokenization project

The OpenEden team was in Dubai for Binance Blockchain Week and had the opportunity to reconnect in person with partners across the @binance ecosystem, including @BNBCHAIN and our investor @yzilabs, and one thing definitely stood out: RWA momentum on Binance is accelerating. Builders, protocols, and users are actively looking for exposures to regulated, yield-bearing tokenized RWAs, and we’re excited to bring more products and innovation to the ecosystem in 2026.
