Emergence conference just concluded where we tried to predict the future of staking and memcoins. Staking is undergoing significant upgrade with ETF inflows and ability to pay staking rewards to the holders. This unlocks true institutional adoption of the major chains and future chains. I'd bet the very soon we will see the ETF composite of 10 blockchains distributing rewards to the holders. Couple pulse check signals: - excitement but not over excitement. Overexcitement doesn't exist in European dna, and this was also the reality of non-European visitors of the conference. Deployment with good risk assessment and memes no more than 1-2% of aum. - memes are here to stay. Memes are fun, they don't have useless fundamentals that you have to wait and they drive the velocity of the markets. Remember the value of velocity in the economic growth of countries? Here are the memes on steroids. I think about memes as a cumulative way to bootstrap an opinion on smth ppl care. Think about posts/reviews/comments/joy. Once it's fun, X promotes the post and it represents the cumulative power of attention. Same for tiktok. But most of these are fragmented and many don't really get to attention bc no one really knows what makes posts viral. Memes is an objective way to represent the cumulative opinion/attention. You buy if you care and if enough ppl care - the price goes up and captures more attention. This is a perfect mechanism for cumulative public attention. And later with agents memes will become activists. Thanks to The Block for organizing an outstanding event.

Thank you, Mad Devs, for such a nice deep dive into our privacy protocol! It again proves that if you're devoted to building a good product, it will not go unnoticed :)

What is that Banana Zone, and why is everyone talking about it? 🍌 If you've been around Bitcoin, you know it's wilder than a reality TV show. We've got villains, heroes, and plenty of comic relief! Get ready, this is gonna be a fun yet long read. What is the Banana Zone? It's not some new crypto that gives you free bananas (though, wouldn't that be fun?). It's the chaotic, unpredictable phase Bitcoin enters post-halving, where prices swing like monkeys in a jungle! But why Now? • Halving: New coin supply is cut in half, and demand stays or grows. • Liquidity: Global money printing and lower interest rates. • Market Cap: Bitcoin's now a trillion-dollar beast, attracting big finance. Here's how it looks: • Price swings: From $1,000 to $2,000 in a blink, or a $10k drop followed by new highs. • Expert overload: Suddenly, everyone's a guru. Beware of the banana stands! • Unexpected events: One tweet can skyrocket or tank the market. Black Swan events? Always on the horizon. The Bitcoin Jungle 🐒 • High volatility: One moment you're rich, the next you're questioning life choices. • Fun until it's not: The thrill of gains can quickly sour if you're not careful. Don't F*ck This Up (#DFTU): 🙈 Avoid the hype. The Banana Zone can trick you into thinking you're invincible. 🤓 Stick to basics like HODL; don't fall for every new shiny investment opportunity. For example, investing in each and every meme coin shilled by influencers is definitely not the best idea. 💸 Remember: if you don't know where the liquidity comes from, you're the exit liquidity. Always Do your own research (DYOR)! 🤡 And last but not least: in this jungle, the real villain might just be your overconfidence! By the way, Bitcoin is back to its six-digit price—does it mean we keep mooning, or is the correction right around the corner? We'd love to hear your thoughts ⤵️

We are excited to share that Hinkal and Mellow Protocol began the integration of $hETH for the vault. What's so cool about this?

Mellow LRT is an innovative liquid restaking primitive allowing permissionless creation of modular LRTs. Mellow offers a series of vault smart contracts tailored to different risk profiles, managed by LRT curators. Stay tuned for the $hETH vault launch date - we are preparing something special for all the hETH holders!

Just #HYPE or the new level for airdrops? If you're FOMOing just like me (the intern) - read this case study and don't miss a possible game-changer in the future. The launch of Hyperliquid's $HYPE token through a massive airdrop has captured significant attention. This event is described as one of the largest airdrops in cryptocurrency history! There were, in fact, many reasons for discussions and enthusiasm. For example, one of the biggest whales received 508,985 tokens through the HYPE airdrop, making almost $350 million during the ATH. So, what is there to learn from this case? For the community: airdrops might serve you as a great entry point into crypto with a $0 initial investment. Of course, you never know what project will become the next gem But as the crypto ecosystem continues to expand, those who strategically leverage airdrop opportunities may find themselves at the forefront of wealth generation. Insight for the projects: less talk, more delivery. With 31% of its token supply airdropped and no venture backing, Hyperliquid’s HYPE token launch set a new standard of how "Community first" can be not just a buzzword on your landing page. By securing a $1.7 billion market cap on day one, the team has proved that devotion really pays off! The community is extremely impressed with seamless onboarding, gas-free trading, a sleek user interface, and lightning-fast token listings, which allow to credit Hyperliquid as a TOP perps DEX of 2024. PS: On a side note, thanks to the team, we got other interesting topics for discussion besides the meme coins this week 😃
