Today is World Quantum Day! A great reminder that quantum's impact on cryptography isn't theoretical, it's only a matter of time. To mark the occasion, CEO StaciW_DC sat down with world-renowned post-quantum cryptographer and Algorand CSO Chris Peikert to discuss the quantum threat to blockchain. Since 2022, Algorand has been leading in blockchain quantum resilience by securing its entire chain history with Falcon-signed State Proofs. In 2025, we took it further: the first quantum-resistant transaction protecting real digital assets was executed on mainnet. With Google now targeting 2029 for its own post-quantum migration, the urgency is clear. Algorand isn't waiting, we're already building for that future. Watch now! 👇

🔥 Builder Spotlight: XDC Network. Algorand. Hedera. We brought together builders from all three ecosystems for a deep dive into what’s being built and where blockchain adoption is heading: XDC Network | Quincy Jones of XDC Foundation discusses connecting legacy institutions with public blockchain infrastructure, bringing VCs and startups together through the XDC Network accelerator ecosystem, and expanding the network’s physical presence in New York. Algorand | 🥖LoafPickle🥒 from Algorand Foundation and pera.algo breaks down post-quantum accounts on Algorand, the new AC2 architecture for securing AI-agent interactions, the rebuilt Pera wallet, and what sustainable blockchain foundations could eventually look like. Hedera | @filtehu explores the consumer side of Hedera through HashPack Wallet, SentX and emerging ecosystem builders, as well as why the future of adoption may depend on making blockchain increasingly invisible to the end user. Three ecosystems. One builder-focused conversation. Hosted by Tate

Quantum computing sounds scary when you hear “it could break crypto” but that’s not where we are today! Binance CSO Jimmy Su put it pretty simply. current quantum computers aren’t even close to cracking the cryptography protecting bitcoin, ethereum and other major networks. no reason to panic rn the part actually worth watching is what happens before quantum gets there post-quantum crypto already exists. NIST finalized its first standards for it in 2024. the hard part is getting the whole ecosystem to adopt it. chains, wallets, exchanges, custodians, millions of users. that’s years, not a switch flip exchanges are already in on this. binance for one has been tracking quantum developments, evaluating post-quantum security standards and preparing its infrastructure for the eventual migration. still an ecosystem problem tho. no exchange can become fully quantum-safe on its own if the chains and wallets around it aren’t ready too. meanwhile, the real risks are way less sci-fi phishing, malware, social engineering, compromised credentials, sloppy wallet security that’s what users actually need to worry about today, not quantum computers worth prepping for early. not worth panicking over yet 🧠

"It's very much a one-size-fits-all solution. When you're building a mobile app you build it for Android and iOS, we're building it for EVM and for SVM" Rand, founder of Zama, on why core infrastructure has to be cross-chain from the start "There's a version for EVM that works with any EVM chain, Ethereum, Base, Polygon, Binance, and then there's a Solana version for SVM. The protocol is designed to be cross-chain on day one. There isn't going to be a different version on every chain, there's just going to be one encryption layer" "You've got confidential assets, shielded USDC on Ethereum, and you can move it shielded to Polygon and Solana. It solves the interoperability issues, even of transactions and bridges, just by using the layer" "Whenever you're building core infrastructure today, you have to build it cross-chain by design. Liquidity is fragmented, people have money on Solana, they have money on Ethereum. Just because you're doing it confidentially shouldn't mean you have worse access than someone using blockchain today. The baseline is what people have today, on top of which we add confidentiality. We cannot make things worse than they are, otherwise people are just not going to use it"

Tonkeeper is now Keeper The best self-custodial wallet on TON now holds assets on $BTC, Ethereum, TRON DAO, Arbitrum, Base, BNB Chain — with more chains landing soon. 77 million downloads and counting. One wallet for everything you own. Tonkeeper was built for one chain and set the standard on it. Crypto stopped being one chain per wallet, and so did we. Keeper brings that standard to every chain we support and the communities that call them home. ● TON is home Jettons, NFTs, staking, DNS, the in-wallet browser. Everything that made Tonkeeper the default on TON is here, untouched. TON is not going anywhere. Neither are we. We are taking it further. $BTC $ETH $USDT $TRX $ARB $BNB and more. One app. ● What multichain gives you One app and one recovery phrase for every account on every network — including every chain we add from here. Why do you need a new wallet instead of just adding networks to the old one? TON uses its own key generation scheme, which isn't compatible with the BIP-39/44 standard that EVM networks and most other wallets run on. That's why a single seed phrase technically can't cover both TON and the other networks. You need a separate wallet with a separate phrase. ● Swaps across chains happen inside the wallet: no bridges, no wrapped tokens, no second app to install. Pick what you have, pick what you want, confirm. Built with our partner MoonPay 🟣 . ● Gas is handled. Battery covers the network fee on TON and TRON, so you never buy a second token just to move the first one. Your USDT on TRON moves with zero TRX in the wallet. Multichain is live in the iOS and Android apps today. Web, desktop and the browser extension get it shortly after. 💙To everyone who has been with us since Tonkeeper Thank you. You've been a huge part of our growth and we want to give something back. 0% fees on cross-chain swaps until September 22, on us. And if you migrate your funds right now, you'll also get tickets toward the mystery raffle. In a week, you'll find out exactly why it was worth hurrying. This is just the beginning More networks. Battery on more chains. The wallet you trusted with one chain is about to run all of them. Be a Keeper Get Keeper:

Illia on the two types of post quantum cryptography, and which one Near prefers "There's a difference between types of cryptography, so-called lattice based and hash based, and there's a bit of a debate right now in the Web3 space about what should be used, with different tradeoffs" "People are used to signing with their wallet, the traditional way, but if we go to more institutional adoption, people use multi party computation, MPC. That's also what backs Near Intents and a lot of the cross chain work Near is doing. Today we have an announcement that we have a consortium testing multi party computation across custodians, banks and regulators, to showcase how this is going to work in production for real institutional use cases" "This is where we need the social consensus for the whole of Web3 to work together in a reasonable way, because hash based is actually very hard to support with hardware wallets and MPC solutions. So it's important for us that there's consensus on lattice based" "We want to be ahead of the curve and showcase how all of these tools work, and bring it to both individual users and institutional usage. That enables both security and trust in blockchain, which we've seen plummet a bit since post quantum concerns started coming out late last year"

Cycles Pay is now officially running on Arc mainnet. This is the first application built on top of the Cycles protocol, a privacy-preserving clearing algorithm that finds loops of mutual debt and settles them without altering what each party is owed on net. Try it today at We already have a web app and a mobile app, and we’ve already added support for both businesses and individuals. Perhaps more importantly, it has a combination of features no one else in the industry has built yet: private stablecoin payments, earn vaults, invoicing, expense splitting and AI assistants. And we’re working on adding invoice financing, credit scores, balance lending, and rotating savings groups with the ultimate goal of becoming the first on-chain credit bureau to deliver credit scores based on real payment history and active payment obligations. Arc is the foundation. We chose it because it is designed for payments with USDC as gas, sub-second finality, and reliable global infrastructure.

If you’re watching gold right now, you need more than just price. That’s exactly why GoldFish’s newsletter matters. It breaks down: → Gold market movements → Institutional accumulation trends → The on-chain shift (incl. $GFIN) → Where the gold market is heading No noise. No hype. Just the insights that actually matter. Because here’s the reality: Gold isn’t just “doing well.” It’s in a full macro shift. Central banks are accumulating. Institutions are increasing exposure. And gold is quietly becoming one of the most important assets to watch again. But most people miss it. They focus on price… and ignore the why behind the move. Personally, I’m watching: • Who’s buying (and how much) • What macro forces are driving demand • Where liquidity is flowing • And how on-chain gold like $GGBR fits into this shift Because this is where it gets interesting: Gold’s macro momentum is now meeting on-chain access. Through $GGBR, gold isn’t just something you track, it’s something you can actually use and position into. In a market like this, being early > being reactive. Stay ahead of the move →

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:

Crypto wallets are no longer just wallets. They’re the front door to a decentralized internet. In this episode, Phantom CEO Brandon Millman joins a16z crypto Investment Partner Jay Drain and host Robert Hackett to unpack how crypto wallets are evolving into full-blown consumer finance platforms — and why they may be the most credible candidates to become the internet’s next super apps. We explore Phantom’s journey from a Solana-first wallet to a multi-chain platform, why wallets are uniquely positioned to win trust around money, and how features like onchain trading, perps, social feeds, prediction markets, and payments are reshaping what people expect from a consumer finance app. The conversation also dives into: - Why starting with finance may be a better path to a super app than starting with social - How Phantom thinks about UX, trust, and security in crypto - The rise of perpetual futures (perps) and prediction markets - What the FTX collapse meant for Solana — and the counterintuitive silver lining - Whether AI agents could one day replace apps and browsers If you’re curious about where crypto, fintech, and consumer apps are headed next — and why wallets may become the most important interface on the internet — this episode is for you. with Brandon Millman jay Robert Hackett

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!

Martin from ChangeNOW on why the barrier to entry into crypto is still really high "We integrated into wallets and many applications just given the swap liquidity or the liquidity cross chain." "We use banks, we do so much in our banking applications that are just natural to us. When a user comes to crypto it's so complicated. How are you storing it, do you have enough gas, what chain is it on. Someone sent me USDT the other day and it was on a completely different chain to what I was expecting. These are some of the difficult things we still experience." "ChangeNOW is integrated into a lot of wallets which has really cut down a lot of those issues, which is really great." "There's a B2B side and a B2C side. On the B2C side people in the comments say I use this all the time to do my swaps, I've got one place to do multiple things. And on the B2B side as a business you can take any of these elements and add that into your own product from payments to swaps."
