A year ago, the idea of Wall Street embracing DeFi would have seemed unlikely, but the landscape is shifting. From TradFi to fintechs to DATs, more institutions are demanding access: EY predicts that 74% of institutions will engage with DeFi within the next two years. In an op-ed…

0/ I have a friend or two at @jito_labs & @jito_sol, and given the positive changes in the regulatory space, we put our heads together to make a small contribution to the discourse. First, most people are probably not aware of how big of a sea change has happened at the @SECGov…

It's impossible to calculate the impact of @BitfuryGroup's Blockchain Summit on crypto. 8 years later @BitfuryGeorge is publishing "And Then You Win" with a story about how it all started. The bag I carry every day still has the luggage tag. Congrats, George!…

Here's some alpha from @const_reborn in Seoul. 🇰🇷 There's a major corporation, known to all, with 300 million idle GPUs that's exploring revenue through Bittensor. Asia is finally waking up to $TAO. 🫡
BOOM @BitfuryGroup incubated miners $CIFR (ex Bitfury USA) and $HUT (ex Bitfury Canada) are nearing total market cap of $10B. With the AGI Race heating up and both loaded with GigaWatts still have lots more room to run 🚀 #AndThenYouWin
On an investor call: “$CIFR is no longer just a BTC miner — it’s a Google-backed AI landlord with a multi-gigawatt runway.” Few 🚀

@DelRayMan Economic forces can't be fought (see below). Building on a decentralized L1 ensures seamless interoperability and access to liquidity on a trustless network—still key for consumers and businesses. Non-decentralized L1s are walled gardens on shiny blockchain rails.
28/ If corporate chains like Tempo and Arc succeed, it will mean the crypto experiment was not a revolution, but a failed coup. The backend technology would be different, yes, but the market structure would be eerily familiar.
26/ The irony, of course, is that this is an entirely solvable problem. Open networks are now pioneering their own native compliance tools that are much more effective than the old model. But for us, back then, it was simply a sign of things to come.
