Onchain asset management and price feeds. Organizing the world's value.


Drumroll please...🥁🥁 Our ETHGlobal Cannes finalists are here! We're excited to announce the top 10 projects of the weekend: 🐚 ENShell 🌊 DIVE 💽 maki ⚔️ Défi 🤖 ALMA 👀 npmguard 😶🌫️ VEIL VPN 🎨 PaintGlobal 🐙 EVM PORST 👾 Corpus Congrats! Learn more about the winners ↓




🚨 DANNY RYAN: A NEW CLASS OF ETHEREUM COMPANIES IS FORMING ETH treasury companies won’t win by holding ETH. They’ll win by using it. DANNY: “Some will play the yield game. Some might blow up. But the real differentiation will be on-chain, DeFi, yield, and Ethereum utilization. The winners become on-chain asset managers.” TOMASZ STAŃCZAK: “Top quality teams using DeFi to generate returns, structured to be perpetual and safe.” 🔹 Competing on yield 🔹 Deploying ETH on-chain 🔹 Becoming asset managers TOMa LEE @fundstrat and @BitMNR are already moving in this direction. Ethereum is becoming the capital market. $ETH $BMNR

🚨 RYAN IS RIGHT: THIS GETS MUCH BIGGER WITH ETH 🔹 Native yield from staking 🔹 No need to engineer returns 🔹 Scales with ETH accumulation That’s the difference. Bitcoin needs structures like STRC to create yield. Ethereum already has it built in. If TOM LEE @fundstrat applied this model to ETH… It opens the door to a real credit market. ETH starts to look like digital gold that pays you. $ETH $BMNR

Agentic payments will be a huge trend. But it's not here yet. I had the most bearish take in this article, and I want to explain why, because crypto has a bad habit of getting high on its own supply and giving unrealistic timelines about technology. Take the mouse. This is what the first computer mouse looked like. Imagine seeing this thing and peering into the future--no more terminal interfaces, now GUIs would onboard billions onto personal computers. You'd be right! But the first mouse was invented in 1964. It took many years before the mouse would be widespread and commercialized. This is where agents are right now. OpenClaw gives you a tantalizing picture of where we're going. But if you've actually used OpenClaw, you know it's buggy, complicated, and is not smart enough to have it manage your money. It routinely ends up going bankrupt doing stupid shit. That will change. Right now OpenClaw is using models out of the box on tasks effectively outside of the training distribution. That's why it feels so broken. But none of the labs have RL'd against OpenClaw traces yet--and those traces are rich with signal. Once you see the first lab-released Claw-style model and harness, expect a huge jump in performance and consistency. Every lab has tons of OpenClaw data now, and they're all working on this, because they see how big the prize is. Expect this to take some time. Right now it's just the tinkerers playing around with this stuff. x402 is only doing a ~million in volume a day (and MPP much less), which shows that right now it's just tinkerers. But a next generation of models will likely be released within months. That will spell the end of the tinkering era and the start of early adopter phase. But even that will be early. The early majority will take years. This is a long-term story--the early adopters, the early majority, the late majority, and then the late adopters. But agents are coming for everyone, and they will change how all money moves. As the @cdixon mantra goes: what smart people are doing on their weekends and evenings, everyone will be doing in 10 years.







The future of trading is an agent + smart pool. Grant targeted access to specific functions — unlocking intelligent execution while NAV Shield and on-chain guardrails keep you secure. Talking directly to your agent beats any UI. Want to swap on 2 chains on @Uniswap ? 👇👇
