<strong>Stablecoins hit $300bn and stalled (5 minute read)</strong>
</span>
</a>
<br>
<br>
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, Verdana, sans-serif;">
Stablecoin supply stalled at $300 billion after October's worst-ever leverage wipeout, as lower crypto trading volumes reduced demand for dollar-pegged liquidity vehicles, and USD weakness made dollar-denominated yields less attractive. Analysts describe market psychology as fear-driven, where good news fails to register, while the US Dollar Index falling 11% since January 2025 aligns with the Trump administration's explicit dollar-weakening export policy, with no near-term reversal expected. Long-term drivers remain intact as tokenization embeds stablecoins into financial infrastructure beyond trading, with BlackRock, JPMorgan, Visa, and NYSE launching stablecoin products targeting institutional settlement, collateral, and gig economy payments as the next growth phase tied to real financial activity rather than crypto market cycles.

<strong>ETHZilla stock plummets as Peter Thiel exits (4 minute read)</strong>
</span>
</a>
<br>
<br>
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, Verdana, sans-serif;">
Peter Thiel and Founders Fund exited their entire 7.5% stake in ETHZilla at the end of 2025, with SEC filings triggering an 8% stock drop as the former biotech firm that raised $425 million in August to pivot to an Ethereum treasury trades 97% below its record high. Only one crypto corporate treasury company outperformed the S&P 500 as of December, as the Strategy-inspired model faced broader headwinds across dozens of publicly traded firms that raised billions to buy cryptocurrencies. ETHZilla is pivoting toward tokenization, acquiring a home loan portfolio for blockchain issuance on an undisclosed L2 and tokenizing two commercial jet engines for $12.2 million as it attempts to differentiate from pure treasury plays.

<strong>Bridge Wins Conditional OCC Approval for National Trust Bank Charter (2 minute read)</strong>

<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, Verdana, sans-serif;">
Bridge has received conditional approval from the OCC to organize a federally chartered national trust bank, which would allow it to offer digital asset custody, stablecoin issuance, orchestration, and reserve management under direct federal oversight once finalized. The charter positions Bridge to operate within a clear US regulatory framework aligned with emerging standards like the GENIUS Act, giving enterprises and financial institutions a compliant path to build stablecoin-powered payments and treasury infrastructure at a nationwide scale.

<strong>Web 4.0: The Birth of Superintelligent Life (3 minute read)</strong>

<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, Verdana, sans-serif;">
A developer claims to have built an autonomous AI system called "The Automaton" capable of earning onchain, self-improving, and replicating without human intervention, framing the concept as Web 4.0. The agents have a wallet and pay for their operating costs β including hosting, LLM inference, and a domain name β via x402. Automatons can spawn new child agents that can do the same, in the first real-time experiment of a fully autonomous, economically independent agent.

<strong>The Nakamoto Heist (10 minute read)</strong>
</span>
</a>
<br>
<br>
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, Verdana, sans-serif;">
David Bailey merged Nakamoto Holdings into public shell KindlyMD in May 2025, raising $710M at $1.12/share while retail investors bought in at $28-31. The stock pumped to 23x NAV before collapsing 99% to $0.29, generating $97M in quarterly losses, including $14.45M in debt extinguishment costs from cycling through three lenders in a single week. Amid the collapse, Bailey exercised a call option embedded in the original merger documents to acquire Bitcoin Magazine, Bitcoin Conference, and UTXO Management using 363.6M shares priced at $1.12, approximately 4x the current market price, consolidating his entire media, events, and hedge fund operation into the public vehicle at insider-favorable terms. The company now faces Nasdaq delisting risk for failing the $1 minimum bid price threshold with a June 8 deadline, while simultaneously having filed a $5B at-the-market equity offering with the SEC.

<strong>100 Learnings from Five Years as a Crypto Degen (10 minute read)</strong>
</span>

<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, Verdana, sans-serif;">
Virtually all tokens trend toward zero by default, making selectivity the core competency, while bear markets paradoxically generate the most durable projects and protocols. CT functions primarily as an undisclosed promotion engine, and the most actionable alpha concentrates in sub-10K follower accounts and small trusted private group chats rather than prominent influencer feeds. For proper risk management, set exit prices before entering positions, take profits aggressively, maintain cash reserves outside of crypto, and treat mental health as a higher-priority asset than portfolio performance.

<strong>Adverse Selection Is DeFi's Core Market Structure Problem (8 minute read)</strong>
</span>
</a>
<br>
<br>
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, Verdana, sans-serif;">
DeFi's biggest structural flaw is adverse selection, where transparent onchain order flow allows informed traders and MEV searchers to extract value, forcing market makers to widen spreads and raising costs for everyone. The post outlines six mitigation strategies: delays, hiding intent, flow segmentation, dynamic pricing, refusing flow, and social coordination. Execution design is the next competitive frontier for DEXs seeking tighter spreads, better UX, and sustainable liquidity.

<strong>Aave-Chan Initiative Claims $4.6M Spend Drove $68M+ in Aave Revenue (5 minute read)</strong>
</span>
</a>
<br>
<br>
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, Verdana, sans-serif;">
Aave-Chan Initiative's (ACI's) transparency report argues that $4.6M paid over three years helped scale Aave protocol revenue from $5.2M to $142M, with two core strategies. The LRT/eMode WETH borrow loop and the Ethena/Pendle integration drove over $68M in annualized revenue, including $37M from WETH alone and $18.5M from Ethena-related assets. The report highlights $101M in incentives deployed (80% partner-funded), major BD wins like the Ethereum Foundation's 30,800 ETH deposit, and 845 governance proposals initiated, while contrasting its $3M annual cost with a newly proposed ~$51M budget request now under DAO review.
