What's stopping you from having legs like this?

Monarq’s XRP Yield Vault is live. For builders, this is a useful reference point: FXRP can be integrated into vault products, strategy routing, and onchain DeFi flows on Flare. More XRP entering Flare means more surface area for apps, protocols, analytics, risk tooling, and new XRPFi products.

We will see a supply shock and we will see $1 $FLR. Not just based off from speculation which was the driver of the DOGE, ADA, XRP and the bull run of many others.

Months from now, many people will wish they had bought $FLR below $0.01. Bookmark this tweet.

Reminder: if you understand how this works, help others see it too.

Imagine this: You're on Binance. You want yield on your XRP. You are confused where to s Well, enjoy the multiple steps and frictions to use it on conventional DeFi. But with @FlareNetworks FAssets v1.3? It's like upgrading from mailing a check to instant Venmo, but for billions in XRP capital. Previously (v1.2 and earlier), minting FXRP (1:1 backed XRP on Flare) required: - Selecting a specific agent. - Reserving collateral. - Coordinating steps, which created bottlenecks tied to agent capacity and added complexity/friction (e.g., timeouts). Now in v1.3: You just send XRP (from anywhere, even CEXs) to the FAssets system address, and include the required identifier (a destination tag or memo) so the system knows it’s yours. BTS, network participant (an executor) confirms that payment using Flare Data Connectors, and the system automatically mints FXRP to the Flare address you linked to that identifier. You don’t need to choose an agent when minting. To date, ~155M+ FXRP had already been minted pre-v1.3, showing real demand. Flare's XRP-linked TVL sits around $200M (part of ~$440M+ total ecosystem TVL), with millions of transactions. - On the larger vision, Flare established itself as the primary distribution infrastructure for "XRPFi": Currently, billions of XRP sit idle. With pre-reserved withdrawal tags, exchanges/wallets can auto-mint FXRP straight into Flare DeFi, no extra apps or bridges. Easier inflow deepens liquidity, improves yields, and increases $FLR utility, with caps/delays/collateral reducing risk. It positions Flare as a liquidity intake layer for XRP (and future FAssets), turning idle XRP into programmable, yield-bearing capital.

Thank you 🫡

Let me explain what’s happening right now… The CLARITY Act is about to pass. Trump in China making trade deals. New Fed Chair replaced Powell. Liquidity is about to FLOOD the market while retail is completely out of crypto. The biggest bull market in HISTORY is coming.

🇺🇸 THE UNITED STATES IS ABOUT TO BECOME THE CRYPTO CAPITAL OF THE WORLD.

$VELO l @veloprotocol I went through the Lightnet products and services (lightnet.io) again this morning to connect the dots with the VELO Blueprint Whitepaper, May 2026 The new whitepaper specifically mentions LIGHTNET in the Compliance Layer section “Velo's compliance capabilities are built upon a global network of licensed payment institutions, including LIGHTNET, with a focus on Southeast Asia and other key cross-border payment corridors.” Here’s how Lightnet’s four products perfectly align with and supercharge Velo’s 4 layer PayFi architecture 1. Lightnet Corporate Treasury & FX ➡️ Powers Velo’s Treasury & Yield Layer Multi-currency accounts, smart FX tools, and programmable workflows. Result: Funds are automatically optimized and earn yield through RWAs and DeFi — true “Stay to Earn”. 2. Lightnet Cross-Border Payments for Institutions ➡️ Powers Velo’s Capital & Settlement Layer Regulated settlement in 150+ countries with local collections and fast payouts. Result: Turns slow T+1 to T+5 SWIFT payments into near-instant flows — no more pre-funded accounts. 3. Lightnet Digital Assets ➡️ Powers Velo’s Infrastructure & Settlement Layer Bridges banks and blockchain with stablecoin settlement and a single API. Result: Seamless on/off-ramps and true hybrid liquidity (banks + OTC + DeFi), fully compliant. 4. Lightnet Merchant Payments ➡️ Powers Velo’s Ecosystem & Real-World Adoption Layer Connects to 200K+ merchants across Asia for instant fiat settlement. Result: Supercharges Orbit Plus — users pay in crypto, merchants get local currency immediately. LIGHTNET doesn’t just support Velo ➡️ it completes it. It provides the licensed fiat rails and local infrastructure that pure crypto could never build. Together, they create a trusted, yield-generating, globally scalable payment and treasury network that institutions, merchants, and everyday users can actually adopt at scale.

BREAKING: 🇺🇸 Jerome Powell officially steps down after 8 years as Federal Reserve Chair.

The future of finance moves fast. And Velo is already there ⚡ From borderless transfers to digital credit infrastructure, @veloprotocol is building for a world without friction. Get $VELO in NOW Wallet: 🔗 walletnow.app.link/Xdownload

🚨 MASSIVE 🚨 🇺🇸 Senator Lummis just sent a warning to the banking system. “Digital assets are the future of finance. Banks can join… or get left behind.” The future is coming fast. 🔥

Stocks. They’re heading for a blow-off-Great- Depression-style top. But before we all end up in bread lines… The drunken blow-off will hit crypto just as everyone writes it off. Crypto bros will get so rich that Lambos will be sold out nationwide. Just wait. It’s coming.

The new "operational utility era" + FIP.16 (implemented on April 24) seems to have blown the cobwebs out. Up 17.29% on the 30-day.

🧵 Velo’s 2026 Blueprint Shows a Much Bigger Vision Than Most People Realize. @veloprotocol is not building just another payment token. It is building a full-stack PayFi network where licensed fiat infrastructure meets crypto-native liquidity. The goal is simple. Move money globally in real time. Reduce settlement friction. Keep capital productive. And connect traditional finance with on-chain markets. At the foundation is the Compliance Layer. Through @lightnetgroup, Velo has access to licensed payment infrastructure across ASEAN and other jurisdictions. This includes regulated fiat collection and payout, local currency corridors, and KYC/KYB/AML coverage. That regulatory foundation is one of Velo’s strongest competitive advantages. Above that sits the Infrastructure Layer. Velo is chain-agnostic and supports multiple blockchain networks, institutional custody and enterprise APIs. This allows clients to access global liquidity without being locked into a single chain. The Capital and Settlement Layer is where the real value movement happens. Velo aggregates liquidity from OTC desks, centralized exchanges, decentralized exchanges and on-chain pools. A routing engine selects the most efficient path based on price, slippage, speed and cost. This enables near real-time settlement without relying on pre-funded nostro accounts. On top of this sits the Treasury Operating System. Idle capital can be deployed into yield-bearing strategies and then instantly converted back into local currency when needed. This transforms treasury management from a static process into a programmable financial system. The result is a unified platform for payments, FX, liquidity, treasury and tokenized assets. The roadmap also points to stronger access to real-world assets, better user entry points into on-chain finance and deeper liquidity across ecosystems. This is where the story becomes especially interesting. Payments. Stablecoins. Yield. RWAs. Institutional settlement. All operating within one integrated architecture. And $VELO is the coordination asset at the center of the system. According to the roadmap, network fees contribute to buybacks, creating a direct connection between transaction volume and token demand. Velo is positioning itself as financial infrastructure for Asia and beyond. Not just for speculation. But for real-world value transfer. The 2026 Blueprint makes one thing clear. Velo is building a regulated, programmable financial network designed to connect traditional finance and blockchain liquidity at scale. $VELO 👉🏻 cdn.prod.website-files.com/68493039e2b5f5…
