DeFi's missing block is an insurance layer that converts smart-contract risk for institutions to rationalize and price. In Phase 2, vaults connect to the economic security framework that provides DeFi cover. We're unlocking mainstream adoption of an entire asset class.

Firelight’s Vault connects to an economic security framework that brings on-chain cover to DeFi users. Tokens deployed on Firelight earn a proportional share of generated fees, while protocols can integrate transparent, native coverage directly into their products.

1/ Season 2 of Endur Points Program is here. What started as a mechanism to streamline STRK staking and drive xSTRK adoption across Starknet now needs a fundamental upgrade. With BTCFi entering the Starknet (Privacy arc) 🥷 ecosystem, Endur is evolving its points framework into a chain-wide incentive layer. Why a Season 2 of Points Program? Season 2 introduces an expanded and behavior-driven points framework that: ✅ Expands beyond STRK to include BTC actions ✅ Rewards productive liquidity, not just deposits ✅ Creates a transition layer for users to become contributors This is the next phase of Endur’s points meta.

🚨BREAKING: FLARE NETWORKS & XAMAN WALLET LAUNCH ONE-CLICK DEFI FOR $XRP HOLDERS Flare ☀️ and Xaman® Wallet 🪝 have introduced seamless one-click DeFi access enabling $XRP holders to deposit into yield-generating vaults in a single transaction, eliminating bridging complexity and custodial risk. The integration eliminates the multi-step process that typically requires bridging XRP to other chains, swapping for wrapped assets, and exposing users to smart contract risk across multiple platforms.

For 50 years our economy was an upward funnel of wealth from the working class to the asset rich. Trump's tariffs are an attempt to right that wrong, restore wealth to the middle class by investing in American workers, and protect our national security. Great joining Real Time with Bill Maher!

“YOLO, figure it out” doesn’t work for business. As John Nahas explains, institutions are moving onchain… but slowly. They have to evaluate smart contract risk, compliance, security, and infrastructure resilience. Every one of those is configurable on an Avalanche L1. Compliance Set the rules your business needs to follow. Security Decide who can participate and how the network is run. Resilience Build on dedicated infrastructure, your app is all that matters. Built for business. 🔺

Redbelly Network, the World’s ONLY Public Purpose-Built Real-World Asset Tokenisation Platform, is delighted to introduce an innovative partnership that will strengthen our position in the Real World Asset (RWA) market and grow our ecosystem. TProtocol is a decentralized Real World Asset (#RWA) lending protocol which facilitates the liquidity and mass adoption of RWA tokens in DeFi ecosystems. TProtocol V2 introduces a ground-breaking TLending mechanism focused on permissioned RWA tokens. RWA institutions can borrow USDC against their tokens in separated pools with tailored risk parameters, interest rate model and liquidation method. Users can lend their USDC in an over-collateralised manner to get access to a safe real yield backed by RWA tokens. This collaboration is a win-win, as TProtocol will gain access to Redbelly's robust infrastructure, ensuring security, scalability and outstanding network performance. Simultaneously, Redbelly Network will benefit from TProtocol’s innovative DeFi RWA TLending mechanism, creating a strong ecosystem that paves the way for the adoption of Real World Assets on chain. Check out TProtocol and welcome them to the Redbelly Network community!

Vitalik Buterin on Ethereum as the economic layer for AI “The blockchain to me is the most natural way to allow applications and cooperation between many different people in the long term without needing to agree on who to trust. The other thing is also the economic layer. This is the layer where blockchains can support AIs.” Vitalik believes Ethereum will play a large role in the future of decentralized AI: “If you have more decentralized AI, that means you have different AIs (agents, programs) that are controlled by different people and need to interact with each other. And for that interaction to be possible, you need to have an economic layer. Either cooperation is based on economic incentives and economic rules. Or it’s based on central control. It’s usually one of the two, and if we can set up the economic system, that makes more decentralized interaction between AIs possible.” Source: OKX (Apr 2026) Read our full article on why AI agents will need Ethereum for low-risk DeFi below👇

3 reasons why we chose to deploy our rollup in the ZKsync Elastic Chain ecosystem. 1⃣ SXT smart contract execution layer SXT is a blockchain designed for collecting, storing, querying, and proving data to smart contracts. Unlike an EVM chain, it's not designed to execute smart contracts. In order to support critical functions for the SXT network, like staking and slashing for node ops, as well as to allow devs to deploy their own smart contracts directly on SXT, we built our own ZK rollup with ZKsync’s stack. It serves as the settlement and smart contract execution layer for SXT. 2⃣ Elastic Chain ecosystem We 🩷 the ZKsync community, and building in the Elastic Chain ecosystem gives us access to an array of other rollups, users, apps, and smart contracts that need ZK-proven data. The Elastic Chain includes some of the coolest projects in crypto across DeFi, social, NFTs, and more, and we're excited to build with them. 3⃣ ZK is the endgame ZKsync is fast, secure, scalable, and the best-in-class zkEVM. Full stop. We’re incredibly bullish on ZK in general, but more specifically the ZKsync roadmap and everything being built by the community and the Matter Labs team. 🎙️: chain builder on The Rollup
