Almost three and a half years ago we started Kintsu with a pretty simple belief: moving finance onchain shouldn’t mean giving up privacy. Your brokerage account isn’t public today. There’s no reason it should become public just because stocks, treasuries, and other assets become programmable smart contracts. We started...

As we approach Monad mainnet, it’s worth understanding how Liquid Staking Protocols actually work, beyond just minting an LST. In this video, I'll walk you 🫵 through the architecture behind Kintsu, including: - How staking $MON into $sMON ("Staked MON") is like owning a share of a growing staking pool, unlocking massive amounts of otherwise idle composable liquidity from the base layer - How compounding happens automatically as validators earn rewards for processing transactions & securing the network - How unstaking sMON works with unbonding requests, batching and claiming back you MON - How the Kintsu Validator Registry evolves over time, not just from inflows/outflows, but through DAO-driven updates and algorithmic routing This is the foundation behind sMON, the most powerful DeFi money lego native to Monad. If you're planning to be active in Monad DeFi as a power user, buildoooor or validator on Monad, the mechanics matter. Education matters, especially in DeFi. Please feel free to ask away with any questions, that is what we're here for. 5 days till Mainnet. Get ready!

we just shipped the ability to submit any transaction and even deploy smart contracts using your bankr wallet. its become the programmable wallet for your agent. this is insane. i installed the bankr moltbot skill, gave it the link to the clawd.atg.eth PFP prediction market, told it i wanted to put 50,000 $CLAWD on option 1 and that was it. this is a big unlock because now an agent can interact with any smart contract onchain on its own. it doesnt need to be directly integrated into bankr. it figured out how to submit the transaction and used the new bankr skill to get it done.

OnRe turns one today. One year ago, OnRe was founded with a clear belief: the future of reinsurance capital would not stay offline forever. Today, that belief has grown into: • $178M+ AUM • 6,200 ONyc holders • $17.28M in gross written premium • $16.83M in yield distributed to ONyc holders • $250M+ total assets deployed across OnRe DeFi Markets • $100M+ of capital deployed into uncorrelated reinsurance opportunities Reinsurance is one of the world’s largest and most resilient yield markets, yet access remained limited to institutions and incumbent balance sheets. Meanwhile, onchain capital expanded rapidly in search of sustainable sources of real-world yield. The disconnect was clear: insurance needed new forms of capital, and digital asset markets needed more substance. So we built OnRe to connect them. A licensed collateralized reinsurer and onchain asset manager bringing reinsurance premiums onchain through ONyc, a Solana-native yield asset backed by real underwriting activity. Over the last year, ONyc integrated into Solana DeFi through Kamino, Loopscale, Exponent, Elemental ⬡, and others, helping bring institutional-grade yield into lending markets, vaults, and liquidity infrastructure. But the most important thing we built this year was conviction. Conviction that reinsurance can become programmable, transparent, and composable infrastructure for internet capital markets. To our team, partners, investors, users, and community: thank you for believing in this vision. We’re just getting started.

"If we do our job right, nobody cares about privacy anymore. It won't be a topic, not because we gave up, but because it'll just be by design in every blockchain transaction" Rand, founder of Zama, on why the goal is to make privacy something you never think about "Privacy has become one of the hot topics again. In the earlier crypto days it was probably one of the main topics, then we went through all these crazy bubbles and people seem to have forgotten about it, I guess because they were making so much money at the time. But it seems we've come home" "I've been in crypto since 2013, this is my fourth or fifth cycle. What changed, and this was our bet at Zama, is that we saw institutions, banks, people wanting to use blockchain for finance, and privacy was a missing element. People are excited about privacy today not because of the original cypherpunk ideals we had initially, but because finance requires it, and because people are excited about trillions moving onchain" "It's like your browser. There's this small lock when you connect to a website, the connection is encrypted, and you don't think about it. We have to do the same for blockchain transactions, it'll just be there by design"

privacy on Ethereum has a gas problem every time you fund and use a new account on a blockchain, you create a trail two trails, actually: → gas linkage: your initial account funds the new account with tokens to pay for transaction fees, linking them publicly → time linkage: deposit into a privacy protocol then use a public app a few minutes later? easy to link both actions this is why "private DeFi" still leaks information that's why we've been working on removing gas entirely, to remove those trails gasless ephemeral accounts and relayers become viable: no funding fingerprints, no top-up history add time-based execution ("deposit into Morpho in one week") and the link between your public account and the onchain action breaks completely privacy at the protocol level means removing the metadata that ties your activity together by default gasless execution does that before any shielded pool is even involved

My conversation with Rob Hadick ＞|＜. As General Partner at Dragonfly, Rob has one of the clearest views on how blockchain is evolving from speculative crypto into the actual infrastructure of global capital markets. In this episode we dig into why finance, payments, asset issuance, and markets are the only parts of crypto that are truly scaling and how the industry is quietly becoming TradFi’s onchain upgrade. We spend a lot of time mapping traditional capital markets primitives directly onto blockchain rails and examining where value is actually going to accrue as tokenization, stablecoins, and onchain trading mature. At the center of the conversation is the belief that blockchain is no longer building a parallel financial system it is becoming the settlement, issuance, and trading layer for the existing one, while crypto itself settles into a more mature “capital markets +” phase focused on real assets, institutional flows, and sustainable business models. We discuss: - The current state of crypto as capital markets infrastructure and the decline of pure speculative narratives - Why finance, payments, and tokenization are winning while most other crypto applications struggle - The architectural parallel between traditional capital markets and on-chain systems - Tokenized assets = Securities - Stablecoins = Cash / settlement - DEXs & on-chain venues = Exchanges - Prediction markets = Information markets - Why institutions are moving on-chain and what they actually want (control, privacy, segregated markets) - Token vs equity: where value accrues in a non-Clarity Act world - The mass extinction event in crypto VC and why Dragonfly is doubling down on financial infrastructure - Stablecoins, RWAs, and the real path to “tokenization of everything” - Prediction markets (and why Polymarket matters) as the next interface layer - Sustainable business models and where value will ultimately capture Timestamps: 0:00 – Introduction & State of Crypto as Capital Markets 2:00 – Why Speculative Narratives Are Fading 7:00 – Finance, Payments & Tokenization as the Only Scaling Verticals 12:00 – Institutional Adoption & What Wall Street Actually Wants 18:00 – Token vs Equity Value Accrual 25:00 – Blockchain as the New Settlement & Issuance Layer 35:00 – Prediction Markets, Information & the Next Interface 45:00 – Crypto VC Consolidation & Dragonfly’s Thesis 55:00 – Real-World Assets, Stablecoins & On-Chain Markets 1:05:00 – Closing Thoughts: Where Value Accrues Next Enjoy!

Full story with Armani Ferrante on 24/7 US equities for international investors. What is Backpack? Bona fide security entitlements. Stablecoins. US capital markets. 00:34 What is Backpack? Your neobrokerage. Your money. Your exchange. “Backpack is a globally regulated financial institution for the future of money. And right now, we are in the early innings of this incredible transformation of global finance all around the world.” 01:47 24/7 trading with a bona fide security entitlement 24/7 trading began in crypto. But not all tokenized stocks represent the same asset or come with the same legal rights. “If you take a look at what the tokenized stock issuers are doing today... these properties might be different legal rights. They might be cash settled. And so they might be more akin to something like a CFD rather than an actual security entitlement.” “What we're doing is really for the first time opening up 24/7 trading for a genuine bona fide security entitlement.” “Markets will close on Friday in the US. And over the weekend, Saturday and Sunday, people through the Backpack brokerage will continue to trade and they'll get the exact same asset that you would expect from your neighborhood brokerage account.” 03:47 The world building on US capital markets “Jensen Huang from NVIDIA, he loves to say that the world needs to build on the American tech stack. But we don't talk enough about the world building on the US capital market. And that's really the thing that's happening with crypto right now.” 04:07 Stablecoins first. Tokenized equities next. “Maybe from a domestic point of view, a stablecoin is a story about efficiency, a story about upgrading the existing financial system. But when you look internationally, it's a very different story. It's a story about access. It's a story about the entire world wanting access to US dollars, even if they don't have access to local USD banking rails.” Circle and Tether have grown into major holders of US Treasuries. Backpack is bringing that same global access to tokenized US equities on Solana. “In the exact same way that US dollars have really been exported to the entire world and proliferated through the form factor of a stablecoin, we fully expect tokenization of US equities to have the exact same effect, but for publicly traded companies in the US all around the world.”

Crypto wasn’t invented for the age we came from. When Satoshi launched Bitcoin, we thought we were building a hedge against banks. Digital gold, permissionless money for humans who couldn't access banks. All true. But the humans found it hard. Keys, custody, UX... none of it felt natural. Turns out we were building the base layer for something else entirely. Agents don't struggle with keys, and smart contracts are native to machines. Every UX problem we've spent years trying to solve was a problem because the users hadn't arrived yet. Now they have. The agentic economy needs money that moves at its speed, and crypto is the only system that does. Had the greatest time sitting down with Erik Voorhees a few weeks ago to dig into where crypto fits in the agentic world. As ever, please enjoy!

Our surprise video for DonBelle during the blockscreening. Looking back to when Cebubblies first began, our vision was simple: we just wanted to love and support DonBelle. But looking at where we are now, it has turned into something incredibly beautiful. For almost five years, this journey has allowed us to achieve things we never thought possible. We have been blessed with the opportunity to give back, extending our love to the community and reaching out to those who need it most. It all started with us simply calling ourselves fans. Over time, those boundaries faded, and Cebubblies turned into a family, a true home. It is a bond built on love, purpose, and a promise to stay together forever. To DonBelle, thank you for bringing us together. Thank you for being the bridge that connected us, and for constantly serving as an instrument of hope, charity, and love for other people. You are the heart of this family. ❤️🖤 (We weren’t able to record DB's full reaction because we were literally crying the whole time. 😭) #DonBelle

No one knew what that meant exactly so I did what I do best and just started winging it… I want to thank our group for first putting me on stage and all the early mornings; and all of our DJs… Thank you to everyone up and down pit road for the love after every show… To the drivers for trusting me and leaning into that one moment across the stage… And most importantly all the fans that brought the energy every time. No matter what track we were at, what new shtick we were trying ya’ll rocked with me and I can’t thank you enough! I didn’t know the last time was going to be the last time and didn’t get a chance to tell you all how much I appreciate you! Cheers to the End of the Beginning. 🫶🏾 See you at the track! #GDTBA

Robinhood CEO: “Tokenization is like a freight train. It can’t be stopped and will eventually eat the entire financial system” Vlad Tenev finds stablecoins to be a useful analogy to explain the benefits of tokenizing real world assets like equities and real estate: “For stablecoins in the US, we talk about it as the best way to get exposure to US assets, and it will further what’s called ‘US dollar dominance’ abroad . . . we’re making it the default way to get access to dollars in the digital realm. That’s why stablecoins have been such a priority in the US, and if you do own a dollar stablecoin, it’s sort of like the most basic tokenized assets.” “In the same way that stablecoins are a bucket of dollars that you mint and burn tokens against, you can do that with stocks, real estate and other real world assets, private stocks . . . And I think it will become the default way to get exposure to US stocks outside the US. I think that’s what makes it so exciting.” This is why Robinhood announced in June 2025 at ETH cc that it would be moving into tokenizing stocks on Ethereum and building its own Ethereum L2: “Both [private and public equity] we’ve demonstrated. In the case of stocks, it’s live right now in the EU. So the only complexity remaining is making sure you have the appropriate licensure and the regulatory clarity in many jurisdictions, but I think that will come. It started in Europe, but it will expand to the rest of the world. Unfortunately, but realistically . . . the US will probably be among the last economies to fully tokenize. But I think it’s inevitable in the US as well.” Source: TOKEN2049 (Oct 2025)

Kyle Reidhead explains why privacy being inevitable doesn’t make him bullish on Zcash “I’m not bullish on Zcash at all. I think privacy is important, don’t get me wrong, but that’s obvious. This isn’t a narrative. It’s just the basics of finance for most cases, it should probably be private.” “The problem with Zcash is there are no financial services. It’s basically just Bitcoin, which is great, it’s a thing that you hold. But why do we need that to be private? What we want private is DeFi on Ethereum, because we can’t have BlackRock come in, start using Aave, and have everyone read everything they’re doing onchain.”

Kyle Reidhead explains why privacy being inevitable doesn’t make him bullish on Zcash “I’m not bullish on Zcash at all. I think privacy is important, don’t get me wrong, but that’s obvious. This isn’t a narrative. It’s just the basics of finance for most cases, it should probably be private.” “The problem with Zcash is there are no financial services. It’s basically just Bitcoin, which is great, it’s a thing that you hold. But why do we need that to be private? What we want private is DeFi on Ethereum, because we can’t have BlackRock come in, start using Aave, and have everyone read everything they’re doing onchain.”

James Harden with a long answer on how this Clippers team has impacted him: “Man it’s special. Really just giving yourself up for something bigger. Coming into this season, it was no expectations for this team for real. You look at the standings, they predicted us to be 13th seed or 12th seed in the West. Being around these guys from day one, it started in Arizona when I put the minicamp together. And then going into training camp and seeing we got something special. We got some dogs in this locker room… Here we are with an opportunity to be top 4-5 seed in the West and have a pretty good run in this postseason. They’ve impacted me in a positive way. They’ve made me lock in on both ends of the ball. And really just have that competitive mindset to want to go out and do whatever it takes to win. And that’s the beauty of a team.”

Two years ago, we started with a simple question. What will it take to simplify the integration of blockchain primitives with global financial rails? Today we’re launching LI.​FI Intents to help make that possible for every business in the world. A product we know this industry needs, a product we’ve built to solve some of the biggest challenges global fintechs face as they move into digital assets, a product we believe companies don’t need tomorrow, or even today, they needed it yesterday. How do we enable stablecoin payments? How do we unlock access to real-world assets for our users? How do we ensure we only touch compliant liquidity across blockchains? These are some of the biggest questions leadership teams across fintech are asking themselves right now. They’re the same questions we asked ourselves. And we knew they had to be solved. LI.​FI Intents is our answer. Every touchpoint of the stack is modular. The entire product is fully customizable to fit ANY business need. From the order type, to who the market maker can be, to how the transaction will be settled on blockchains, to which service providers your business trusts - everything can be shaped around how you want your product to work. As a builder myself, this is the kind of flexibility and abstraction I’ve been looking for in this industry ever since we started LI.​FI 5 years ago. And I’m incredibly proud that the LI.​FI team is delivering it. LI.​FI Intents is built to make crypto products easier to launch for businesses that want to move onchain, but have been slowed down by the complexity of it all. The enterprise stack for onchain finance. For all intents and purposes.

Mew : To be honest, from the very beginning, we never actually set a wedding date. So I’m not even sure if “postponed” is the right word, since there was never a date to begin with. We’re pretty chill about it. We feel that a wedding is an important occasion, so we want to have it when we’re truly ready. It’s not just about the two of us, it's also an event that brings everyone together, so we want it to be a moment where everyone is happy together. 🗣️: Some venues need to be booked years in advance. Shouldn’t you reserve one first? Mew : We haven’t even locked in a wedding date or consulted a fortune teller yet 😂 Tul : I have one requirement. I’d like to get married during the cool season and have an outdoor wedding with a nice breeze. So I’m thinking either late in the year or early the following year. Mew : That’s going to be difficult though. We probably only get cool weather for about three days 😂 Tul : You never know. Mew : We’ll have to leave it up to luck too. 🗣️: So there’s no problem between you two? Mew : None at all. Honestly, there aren’t any issues. Since we never set a wedding date in the first place, we haven’t really been focusing on the wedding. Building our house takes a lot of time and a lot of ….. too, so that’s what we want to focus on first. Tul : But that day (when Mew gave the interview), a lot of people read too much into what he said. What he actually meant was that we haven’t prepared anything yet, so we’ll just push it back for now. There’s no problem between us at all. We’re together all the time.

The payment layer for programmable money is here – Introducing BRRR BRRR creates a universal settlement layer connecting blockchain networks with traditional payment systems, enabling programmable transactions at global scale. For the first time ever, any financial institution or service provider is just one API call away from orchestrating payments onchain. Any network, token, or smart contract logic comes right out of the box with a compliant and developer-friendly experience. Crypto in the last cycle lived in a vacuum with no real connective tissue to legacy fiat and banking systems. Today, stablecoins, blockchain networks, and DeFi primitives are reinventing how we interact with money. There will be more specialized stablecoins, dedicated payment networks, and sophisticated primitives — and BRRR is the one layer that connects all of them together. BRRR is already: • Connecting 20 networks • Integrated with 150+ protocols • Powering the largest Web3 card • Processed over $200M real-world payments BRRR is a smart proxy to the future-proof payments, but that is only the beginning. Today we mark the next stage of BRRR, where everyone can be a part of it. To learn more about BRRR, how to get involved or integrate, visit:

A coin built to be completely private and untouchable just lost half its value in 48 hours because of a crack it didn’t know it had. for FOUR years and an AI is the one that found it imagine the most secure private vault in the world. now imagine finding out there’s been a hole in it the whole time and because it’s private, you can never prove if anyone used it… that’s Zcash. that’s this week. but here’s why everyone should care: the smartest humans missed this bug for 4 years. AI found it instantly. today AI is finding cracks to fix them. tomorrow the same tools find cracks to use them. your bank. your data. every system humans built. AI can now find the weak points faster than we can protect them. a privacy coin was just the first to break in public. it won’t be the last

Tom Lee: Ethereum DATs can use ~$500 million in annual staking rewards to fund grants for Ethereum ecosystem “The Ethereum Treasuries — Bitmine and Sharplink among others — now own 7% of the Ethereum supply… Treasury stock is essentially supply permanently taken out from the ecosystem, but we also own the yield. The yield is around 3% so today these public treasuries are generating ~$500 million in rewards, and that is what we can use to fund and grant the crypto ecosystem.” Lee believes that the Ethereum Foundation narrowing its focus to CROPs (censorship resistance, openness, privacy and security) is the right decision. “Ethereum is a $240 billion network value entity. It has been operating for 11 years without a single day of downtime. There’s 11,500 nodes in 89 different countries. And there’s 15,000 developers. I think this is too big to be coordinated by a single foundation.” As Ethereum continues to scale, he believes the ecosystem will move beyond a foundation-centric model and points to private companies like Etherealize, Optimism, Consensys, Enterprise Ethereum Alliance, and Offchain Labs that represent the Ethereum ecosystem and are already doing enterprise engagement. “This list doesn’t yet reflect the spinoffs coming from the Ethereum Foundation. There’s at least five, and I think Bitmine will play a role in granting and supporting any of those that come out.” “I think Ethereum is in good hands because the foundation is going to be stronger by staying focused. We have a lot of private sector companies already building products and important L2s on Ethereum. And of course, the treasuries are here to help with funding and granting… If you’re bearish, you are selling at the bottom.”
