When bitcoin was ATH, have you ever thought, “I wish I bought bitcoins early”?
Guess what, those who bought early did not buy at ATH, they bought when there were fear, uncertainty and doubt.
Merry Christmas 🎄
Let me recap the first 10 days of launch:
- #5 largest chain in the world by stablecoin supply with ~$7 billion
- #3 largest chain for USD₮ only behind Ethereum, Tron and BSC
- #5 largest chain by DeFi TVL with ~$8.7 billion (including borrows)
- Second largest Aave instance with ~$6 billion market size
- The most blue chip DeFi day 1 integrations in history with Aave, Ethena, Fluid, Euler, Curve, Uniswap, Balancer amongst others
- Every major exchange integrating native USD₮ deposits and withdrawals day 1 including Binance
- Largest DeFi CEX integration in history with Binance and Aave on Plasma
- More than $50 billion of USD₮ transfer volume only behind Ethereum and Tron in the same time frame
- 34.5m total transactions surpassing 100 TPS on a regular basis, more than nearly any other chain in production
- More than 1.3m unique addresses
- Not a single point of failure or downtime, in infrastructure or block production
- One of the largest and most successful public sales in history
- Nearly 100k fully organic waitlist signups for our flagship neobank Plasma One
Only 10 days in. We're quite literally only getting started.
Trillions.
DefiLlama Remove CZ Coin $ASTER from Its Platform What Going On ?
Top DeFi data platform DefiLlama has officially removed $ASTER from its perpetual volume listing after detecting suspicious activity
According to the DefiLlama team, $ASTER trading volume has recently mirrored Binance Perpetual volume almost identically, raising concerns about possible data manipulation
This discovery has sparked speculation is the $ASTER team hiding something ?
plasma holds $6.2b on aave and $5.5b stablecoins but trades at sub-$3b market cap after 10x leverage positions on hyperliquid got liquidated. xpl crashed from $1.70 to $0.90 purely on cascading liquidations. the tvl to market cap ratio just broke every precedent in defi history
@andreasrtobing_ For those still unsure of hyperliquid:
Hyperliquid Q2 trading volume beats robinhood Q2 by freakin 50 billion
HYPE FDV is 42billion and HOOD marketcap is 93,6 billion
Let that sink in, a minimum of 2x from here is imminent
Hyperliquid Trading Volumes > Robinhood Trading Volumes
@HyperliquidX Spot and Perp Volumes flipped @RobinhoodApp trading volume!
$HOOD did ~$150B in June '25 down from $192B in May '25
$HYPE did ~$231B in June '25 down from $256B in May '25.
Soon Robinhood vs Hyperliquid July '25 volumes 👀
Ethereum.
Fun fact: I met @VitalikButerin in 2013 at the San Jose Bitcoin conference when he was writing for Bitcoin Magazine (his writing was great).
A few months later I invited him to come by Coinbase's first office in San Francisco for a visit and he showed us some cool stuff on his laptop. Fred, Olaf, and I decided we should try to hire him, and reached out to see if he would be interested in joining us. But due to a series of circumstances, including him not being able to get a work visa in the U.S., it didn't work out and he had to go back to Canada.
While he was stuck in Canada he created Ethereum. So, in a way, the sub-optimal immigration system in the U.S. contributed to the creation of Ethereum.
Happy 10th birthday Ethereum!
The current capitulation in the $JTVO token is not due to FUD nor selling from our side.
As the Founder and CEO of $JTVO, I (@lucaxyzz) recognize that we haven’t yet gained significant attention from CT or the broader crypto community after our exponential run to $7m market cap.
I’m committed to staying and building within the @solana, @MeteoraAG, and @believeapp ecosystems. We’re set to release several new products aimed at serving various communities, whether through meme-oriented agents or broader use-cases across the Solana ecosystem.
Our ecosystem, partnerships, and technology today are far stronger compared to last month when our market cap was in the millions.
Thank you for your continued believe and support.
