Yesterday, I had the honour of attending my first @Nasdaq IPO and the privilege of ringing the bell alongside my colleague @donaldchua, who at this point feels like a franchise of his own, larger than the brand itself. This was not just our first Nasdaq IPO. It was the IPO of friends, partners, and a true benchmark for us: @CoinSharesCo. Congratulations to @jmmognetti, Benoît Pellevoizin, Daniel Masters, @CarolineDPham, Emily Mohr, Jérôme Castille, Pierre Porthaux, @jeremylebescont and the entire CoinShares team. It was inspiring to see one of the leading digital asset managers, backed by strong financials, trading positively on the day and positioned for long-term, meaningful growth. CoinShares has been building in this industry for over a decade, consistently innovating through both off-chain and now on-chain products, serving millions of retail users and helping drive the evolution of finance on-chain. We are proud to partner with such an exceptional team, first through @Kiln_finance on staking, and now with @railnet_org on on-chain asset management. They have supported us throughout cycles and market conditions alike. Yesterday also felt like a reminder of the level of ambition we should always aim for. JM, his board, his team, and his family are setting the standard and showing the path forward. We will take inspiration from it. Proud of you, frens 🫡

After an incredible week in Cannes, we are now getting ready for Paris Blockchain Week! 🇫🇷 We are looking forward to our home city being in the spotlight and meeting with our key partners. It’s also a pleasure to join @circle and have the opportunity to present @railnet_org as part of the Circle Alliance Program. Thanks for the invitation! 🙏 If you’re in town and want to discuss yield generation, staking, or catch up, make sure to contact @laszlo__szabo and @Bitondan À bientôt in Paris! 🥐

Merci Cannes 🇫🇷 This week was as busy as it gets. It was an honour to present @railnet_org on the main stage at @EthCC, and join other leaders in the industry on the stage of Agora by @KaikoData and the @Vault__Summit by Party Action People. We’ve met with many key industry stakeholders, building on the conversations after New York, and are excited about what’s coming next for Kiln Omnivaults. See you next year Cannes.

The elephant in the room for onchain yield in crypto is Bitcoin 🐘 Most of our clients hold billions in BTC that generate no yield. Today, only ~1.6% of BTC (about $21B out of a $1.35T asset class) is productive, for a few key reasons: → BTC is not natively yield-bearing like ETH or SOL → Since FTX, centralized lending desks have largely disappeared (e.g. Genesis) → The “Bitcoin staking” narrative has lost momentum post-FTX → Bitcoin holders tend to be particularly cautious when putting their assets to work We are addressing this with @railnet_org, in partnership with @monarq_mgmt, the asset management arm of @FalconXGlobal. Led by @ShiliangTang and a team with backgrounds at @TowerVentures and @Point72Careers, Monarq has developed a strategy that takes BTC as input and allocates it across DeFi and RWA opportunities. The approach is multi-venue, risk-managed, and fully transparent, targeting up to 6% yield on BTC. Railnet provides the orchestration layer: configurable risk controls, real-time accounting across positions, and fully auditable onchain execution. Allocators can see exactly where capital is deployed and how yield is generated. Excited to help shape the future of onchain asset management and make billions of Bitcoin productive again🚶 More information: railnet.org/blog/monarq-la… PS: Tomorrow, we are releasing a Railnet Talks episode with Shiliang Tang from Monarq Asset Management. We go deeper into what an institutional approach to BTC yield really means, why it is difficult to execute well, and what the market is missing today. Stay tuned 👀

EthCC is officially taking over Cannes! 🇫🇷 We are thrilled to be part of the 9th edition of @EthCC To kick things off, @laszlo__szabo will be taking the Monroe Stage tomorrow to discuss the Future of Onchain Asset Management. Catch him from 11:35 – 11:55, following sessions by @StaniKulechov and @50Nent If you’re attending and want to discuss your yield strategies, reach out to @donaldchua or @msv931 to grab a coffee. See you in the Palais des Festivals! 📷

CoinShares, the leading regulated asset manager, is launching its first onchain strategies on Railnet, composed of a unique direct portfolio allocation combining DeFi and real world assets. Traditional asset managers were always going to enter crypto. The real question was when and under what conditions. They started by launching ETP/ETF products, for some of them tokenised these funds, but the end goal what to extend what they have been operating for years into new rails. Over the past year, we have seen the emergence of curators shaping the onchain yield space through lending pool curation. This marked the beginning of a broader shift, moving from static yield exposure such as staking to more dynamic lending strategies. We are now entering the next phase: onchain asset management. This new category enables direct allocation across the full spectrum of DeFi, including lending, liquidity provision, and perpetual DEXs, while integrating onchain portfolios of real world assets such as money market funds, commodities, private credit, and equities. The result is a more scalable and sustainable approach, less dependent on short term token incentives. This is precisely why @CoinSharesCo is becoming a founding asset manager on Railnet. @railnet_org introduces the first open yield layer designed to standardise how synchronous DeFi positions and asynchronous RWA allocations coexist within the same onchain fund or vault. Beyond the smart contract infrastructure, Railnet provides asset managers and allocators with risk management data rooms to assess asset exposure, protocol exposure, as well as liquidity and smart contract risk across their portfolios. This also enables the application of KYT, KYC, and AML policies, ensuring compliance standards can be adapted to different worldwide jurisdictions and regulatory requirements.

We are delighted to launch our first on-chain asset management strategy, powered by @kiln_finance’s Railnet infrastructure. “On-chain is not another crypto product. It’s a new distribution rail.” @jmmognetti The strategy is designed to combine multiple on-chain and tokenised sources of yield within a single portfolio, managed by CoinShares’ EU regulated asset manager.

Onchain finance is maturing. After months of close collaboration with the CoinShares team, we are officially launching a new category: Institutional On-chain Asset Management with @railnet_org

Kiln has always been about making assets productive and democratizing access to building wealth. We started with staking, expanded to DeFi. Now with @railnet_org, we're building the infrastructure for traditional asset managers to operate onchain. @CoinSharesCo is the first to go live.

Sometimes I agree with this guy

@20th_Centurygal Take Care

Our team, @laszlo__szabo, @msv931, and @donaldchua will be in Cannes for EthCC[9]. We'd love to connect and talk all things DeFi, tokenization, and staking. We’re also excited to announce that our CEO @laszlo__szabo is featured among the @EthCC’s speakers at the conference, where he’ll discuss DeFi, Railnet and Kiln Omnivault. Make sure to join him at the main event! It’s also a pleasure to be invited to talk at Agora by @KaikoData, alongside @Kean_Gilbert from @LidoFinance, @sebadault from @Ledger, @SteveJBerryman from @Bitwise, and @_evalawrence from @Figment_io. Come say hello, see you in Cannes!

In pre-production for Margin Call (2011), the film had a tiny $3.5 million budget. Irons and the rest of the A-list cast took massive pay cuts because they were so impressed by the precision and "Shakespearean" quality of the dialogue.

Today, Telegram notified all its users in Spain with this alert: Pedro Sánchez’s government is pushing dangerous new regulations that threaten your internet freedoms. Announced just yesterday, these measures could turn Spain into a surveillance state under the guise of “protection.” Here’s why they’re a red flag for free speech and privacy: 1. Ban on social media for under-16s with mandatory age verification: This isn’t just about kids—it requires platforms to use strict checks, like needing IDs or biometrics. ⚠️ Danger: It sets a precedent for tracking EVERY user’s identity, eroding anonymity and opening doors to mass data collection. What starts with minors could expand to all, stifling open discourse. 2. Personal and criminal liability for platform executives: If “illegal, hateful, or harmful” content isn’t removed fast enough, bosses face jail. ⚠️ Danger: This will force over-censorship—platforms will delete anything remotely controversial to avoid risks, silencing political dissent, journalism, and everyday opinions. Your voice could be next if it challenges the status quo. 3. Criminalizing algorithm amplification: Amplifying “harmful” content via algorithms becomes a crime. ⚠️ Danger: Governments will dictate what you see, burying opposing views and creating echo chambers controlled by the state. Free exploration of ideas? Gone—replaced by curated propaganda. 4. “Hate and polarization footprint” tracking: Platforms must monitor and report how they “fuel division.” ⚠️ Danger: Vague definitions of “hate” could label criticism of the government as divisive, leading to shutdowns or fines. This can be a tool for suppressing opposition. These aren’t safeguards; they’re steps toward total control. We’ve seen this playbook before—governments weaponizing “safety” to censor critics. On Telegram, we prioritize your privacy and freedom: strong encryption, no backdoors, and resistance to overreach. ✊ Stay vigilant, Spain. Demand transparency and fight for your rights. Share this widely—before it’s too late.
