Bitcoin (CRYPTO: BTC) closed the first quarter of 2026 down 23%, driving exhausted traders to pivot capital into a surprising alternative asset class: physical Pokémon cards.
Prominent crypto analyst Trader Mayne and pseudonymous collectibles expert CBS discussed on Wednesday how the Trading Card Game (TCG) market is absorbing liquidity as digital assets continue to trade sideways.
The “Bitcoin” Of CollectiblesVintage Pokémon cards are exhibiting price resilience, with CBS highlighting the 1999 Base Set First Edition Charizard as the “Bitcoin of the TCG market.”
TCGs are attracting crypto capital thanks to their scarcity, liquidity, and decoupling from wider digital assets.
Unlike altcoins with constant token unlocks and inflationary supply, vintage cards have fixed, verifiable caps.
High-end graded cards operate with near-instant liquidity at trade shows and online marketplaces, allowing traders to flip $50,000 physical assets in minutes.
And while Bitcoin and equities dumped over the last four months, vintage trading cards largely held their value or appreciated.
CBS views the current environment as a “land grab,” noting that wealthy millennials in their 30s are aggressively replacing traditional antiques with nostalgic physical investments.
Markets Held Hostage By HeadlinesBack on the traditional charts, Mayne emphasized that technical analysis is currently taking a backseat to geopolitical “tape bombs.”
Mayne noted this instant risk-on bid reveals the market’s total desperation for a de-escalation catalyst.
Until a formal ceasefire occurs, Mayne expects violent volatility and warns against forcing leverage in the middle of a headline-driven range.
Prediction markets currently price the odds of U.S. “boots on the ground” in Iran by the end of April at greater than 50%.
Mayne also took aim at Strategy Inc (NASDAQ:MSTR) and its Chairman Michael Saylor over the aggressive marketing of the company’s new 11.5% yield product, STRCH.
Saylor recently deployed heavily criticized, AI-generated promotional videos to advertise the fixed-income product to retail investors.
Mayne compared the marketing tactics to the peak-euphoria days of the collapsed Terra/Luna Anchor Protocol, labeling the campaign “unbelievably cringe” and warning that such aggressive retail targeting damages the broader credibility of the Bitcoin ecosystem during an already fragile market structure.

The IMF’s Tokenized Finance note flags pricing of illiquid assets as a systemic risk. What does that mean for oracle infrastructure and institutional DeFi
The IMF published a note this month that deserves close reading from anyone building or allocating in tokenized finance. “Tokenized Finance” (NOTE/2026/001), authored by Tobias Adrian, the IMF’s Financial Counsellor, argues that tokenization is not an efficiency upgrade to existing financial plumbing but a structural reconfiguration of how trust, settlement, and risk management are organized.
The note is 23 pages and it covers settlement finality, governance of code, cross-border resolution, stablecoin risk, and wholesale CBDC design. But one thread runs through the entire document that hasn’t received enough attention: the pricing infrastructure gap for illiquid tokenized assets.
Adrian’s argument starts from a structural observation: Tokenized assets, including fund shares, securities, and programmable financial instruments, are migrating onto shared ledgers where settlement happens atomically and collateral moves in real time. For any of this to work safely, every asset in the system needs continuous, reliable pricing.
For liquid assets, this is solved. Exchanges produce prices and aggregators publish them.
But the asset classes driving institutional adoption don’t fit that model. Tokenized treasuries crossed $11 billion in market capitalization in March 2026, up from under $1 billion two years ago. BlackRock’s BUIDL fund alone holds over $2.1 billion. The broader RWA market (excluding stablecoins) sits at roughly $27 billion according to RWA.xyz.
These assets share a characteristic that breaks existing pricing infrastructure: they don’t trade continuously on liquid markets. Tokenized treasury funds don’t have order books. Fund NAV tokens don’t establish price through supply and demand. Yield-bearing tokens have redemption mechanisms encoded in smart contracts. Their value is defined by what the protocol guarantees you can redeem, not by what the last trade said.
The IMF note is direct about what happens when pricing infrastructure can’t handle this. When financial logic is embedded in smart contracts, automated margin calls triggered by distorted or stale price data force rapid liquidations. Adrian specifically flags faulty price feeds as a vector for cascading failures.
On October 10, 2025, $19 billion in leveraged DeFi positions were liquidated in 24 hours. The IMF note references this event directly as an example of automated liquidation triggers amplifying market stress.
Adrian’s note also addresses something the DeFi discourse largely skips: regulatory alignment with fair value standards.
Fair value measurement standards, specifically IFRS 13 and ASC 820, explicitly require fundamental valuation methods when markets are inactive. Institutional capital must comply with these standards. When a tokenized treasury fund enters a DeFi lending protocol as collateral, the pricing methodology underneath needs to produce valuations that would survive an audit.
Most of DeFi doesn’t think about this. But the capital it’s trying to attract does. An asset manager allocating to an onchain vault through a risk curator like Gauntlet or Steakhouse Financial needs the pricing layer to align with the same frameworks their compliance teams already operate under.
Adrian’s note connects these dots explicitly. Fair value infrastructure for illiquid tokenized assets is a regulatory precondition for the institutional capital that the entire tokenized finance thesis depends on.
The note points out that the pricing problem itself isn’t new. Fund administrators have computed NAV for illiquid portfolios for decades. Banks and auditors routinely model loan book valuations and verify reserve backing for money market instruments. The valuation logic is well-established.
What’s different onchain is that the inputs these methods need are often already available as smart contract state. Redemption rates, reserve balances, yield accruals, portfolio compositions. In traditional finance, collecting these inputs requires trusted intermediaries and batch processes. Onchain, they can be read directly, computed continuously, and verified by anyone.
This is where the note gets most interesting for anyone building oracle infrastructure. Adrian argues that as financial logic migrates into smart contracts, governance must extend beyond institutions to algorithms. The functions that smart contracts perform (executing collateral transfers, initiating default procedures) are systemically important and dependent on the data they consume.
The note’s language is worth paying attention to: formal verification and independent audits should be mandatory for systemically important contracts. Change management must be transparent. And, directly relevant to oracles, the governance challenge concerns not only code quality but the processes that design, validate, modify, and override the data feeds powering execution.
For pricing infrastructure specifically, this means the methodology behind every price needs to be inspectable: the inputs, the computation, the logic connecting them. When a vault liquidation fires because a tokenized treasury was repriced, the risk curator needs to be able to trace that price back to its source and verify the calculation was correct. That’s a governance requirement.
The note’s bias is toward permissioned, institutionally governed shared ledgers. Adrian’s preferred scenario has tokenized infrastructures built around wholesale CBDC with coordinated oversight. But the protocols that actually need fair value pricing today, Euler, Morpho, Silo, operate on permissionless infrastructure, with institutional risk curators managing vault strategies on open rails.
This tension matters for pricing specifically. A permissioned model implies designated entities computing and attesting to fair value, similar to how fund administrators operate today. A permissionless model implies transparent onchain computation where anyone can verify correctness. The IMF note doesn’t quite acknowledge this second option, but its own requirements (auditability, governance of data feeds, verifiable correctness) are more naturally satisfied by transparent computation than by institutional attestation.
The IMF has now framed the absence of fair value pricing for illiquid tokenized assets as a macro-level risk, a structural vulnerability in the financial system that tokenization is building.
At DIA, this is the problem we’ve been building against. DIA Value prices illiquid tokenized assets by computing fundamental value from onchain contract state, with the full computation verifiable.
When a protocol needs to price a yield-bearing token as collateral, Value reads the redemption rate directly from the issuing contract rather than relying on a thin secondary market. When a stablecoin protocol needs to verify its reserves match circulating supply, Value computes the backing ratio from onchain state.
It’s live across lending protocols and stablecoin infrastructure, and its architecture makes the full computation pipeline verifiable onchain, which is the design constraint the IMF note points to, even if it imagines a different institutional model delivering it.
The broader question is whether this pricing infrastructure will be built by permissioned intermediaries replicating traditional finance with a blockchain wrapper, or by verifiable open systems like DIA that give institutional actors the auditability they need without reintroducing the opacity they’re trying to leave behind.
U.S. stocks rose Monday, with gains led by energy and growth-sensitive sectors as investors weighed ongoing conflict in Iran against firm economic data.

The latest AI news China Iran artificial intelligence military US bases geopolitics story escalated on April 5 when an ABC News exclusive revealed that the US Defense Intelligence Agency has confirmed Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps is actively using AI-enhanced satellite imagery from a Chinese firm called MizarVision to identify, prioritize, and target US military installations across the Middle East.
Summary
MizarVision, a partially state-owned Chinese geospatial AI company, has been publishing AI-annotated high-resolution satellite imagery of US military bases on open-source platforms, with automated detection of aircraft, Patriot missile batteries, fuel depots, radar systems, and troop concentrations — capabilities once limited to classified national intelligence agencies DIA officials assess that the IRGC is actively using these datasets to refine missile and drone strike planning, compressing what previously required days of intelligence analysis to minutes; one intelligence official characterized the activity as a Chinese company “we believe maliciously, providing intelligence on an open-source platform” MizarVision posted at least six detailed analyses of Saudi Arabia’s Prince Sultan Air Base between February 24 and 27, identifying Patriot positions and aircraft locations; the base was struck less than 48 hours later, and one US service member later died from injuries sustained in the attack The latest AI news China Iran artificial intelligence military US bases geopolitics threat took concrete form on April 5 when ABC News first reported that the US Defense Intelligence Agency had assessed Iran’s IRGC as actively exploiting satellite imagery datasets from MizarVision — a Chinese geospatial AI firm with approximately 5.5% Chinese government ownership — to improve the precision and tempo of missile and drone strikes against US and allied forces.
MizarVision’s platform integrates machine learning trained on military signatures, automatically classifying aircraft types, radar arrays, hardened shelters, fuel depots, command centers, and naval vessels based on shape, thermal patterns, and contextual indicators. The AI adds geospatial metadata tags that can be directly integrated into targeting software and command-and-control systems. Its stated mission is to “democratize and universalize geospatial intelligence” — a goal that US defense officials now say Iran has operationalized for warfare.
How It Compresses Iran’s Kill Chain Traditional targeting intelligence collection, processing, analysis, and dissemination cycles take days. MizarVision’s AI reduces that to minutes by automatically generating tagged, geolocated target packages from commercially available satellite imagery. For Iran’s IRGC — which lacks the classified satellite constellation and imagery analysis units of a major power — this represents asymmetric capability: outsourcing targeting intelligence from a commercially accessible platform while maintaining operational plausibility.
DIA officials told ABC News that Iran is using these datasets not just to identify targets but to conduct pattern-of-life analysis, tracking deployment routines and periods of maximum vulnerability. That allows the IRGC to shift from broad saturation attacks toward selective strikes against air defense radars, maintenance shelters, and fuel storage facilities — the specific nodes that reduce US air combat effectiveness.
The Prince Sultan Air Base Sequence The most alarming evidence centers on Prince Sultan Air Base in Saudi Arabia. MizarVision published detailed posts identifying Patriot missile battery positions on February 24, and aircraft parking locations on February 27. On March 1, satellite imagery showed smoke rising from damaged sections of the base following an Iranian strike. US intelligence later confirmed one service member was seriously wounded and subsequently died.
The Geopolitical Dimension MizarVision has also published imagery of Diego Garcia, Israeli positions, Australian naval movements, and TSMC’s semiconductor plant construction, extending the concern from conflict intelligence to strategic industrial surveillance. China officially maintains a neutral position on the Iran war. The firm operates within a Chinese government framework that analysts describe as providing Beijing “plausible deniability” — the ability to assist regional partners while avoiding direct military involvement.
As crypto.news reported, Iran has already struck tech and energy infrastructure across the Gulf as part of its asymmetric response strategy. As crypto.news noted, each confirmed escalation in the conflict has produced immediate crypto market sell-offs, with the AI targeting dimension now adding a new layer of unpredictability to any de-escalation timeline.
“Future wars will be shaped as much by who can interpret and weaponize data fastest as by who fields the most advanced missiles, aircraft, or air defense systems,” one GDC analyst assessed — a conclusion the MizarVision case has now made difficult to dispute.
U.S. stocks surged to one-month highs on Wednesday as a temporary ceasefire between the U.S. and Iran triggered the biggest single-day oil price collapse in years, easing concerns about energy-driven inflation and sparking a sweeping relief rally from airlines to semiconductors.
• State Street Energy Select Sector SPDR ETF shares are sliding. Why are XLE shares down?
President Donald Trump declared on Truth Social that Iran “has gone through what will be a very productive Regime Change” and pledged “there will be no enrichment of Uranium,” adding that many of the 15 negotiating points had been agreed to and that the U.S. would work with Tehran on tariff and sanctions relief.
The session was not without turbulence. Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi signaled that seriousness from the U.S. side would still be required to achieve lasting stability, while an early-morning report of an attack on Saudi Arabia’s vital east-west oil pipeline tested risk sentiment. Iran also signaled that Israeli strikes on Lebanon made after the ceasefire will trigger a strong response.
By midday in New York, WTI crude plunged 15.9% to around $95 per barrel — its steepest single-session drop since April 2020 — as Iran’s agreement to reopen the Strait of Hormuz eliminated a significant geopolitical premium that had built up in energy markets over five weeks of conflict.
Brent crude fell 13.3%, settling near $94.70 per barrel.
The yield on the 10-year U.S. Treasury note fell approximately three basis points to 4.27%, its lowest level in roughly three weeks, as the oil price collapse dampened inflation expectations.
Markets now price in roughly a 35% chance of a Federal Reserve rate cut by year-end, compared with near-zero odds at the start of the week.
Across U.S. equity markets gains were broad-based and led by technology, industrials, and consumer discretionary — precisely the sectors most sensitive to lower oil prices, falling yields and rebounding risk appetite.
The Russell 2000 climbed 3.1%, with small caps leading gains as the risk-on rotation broadened into rate-sensitive domestic stocks.

In a late-night post on Wednesday, President Donald Trump warned that all U.S. military assets would remain positioned near Iran "until such time as the real agreement reached is fully complied with," underscoring the conditional nature of any de-escalation.
Tehran, meanwhile, accused Washington of breaching ceasefire terms and reiterated threats against vessels awaiting transit through the Strait of Hormuz, which remained shut — a stark reversal from Wednesday's relief-driven rally that had sent equities higher while triggering a sharp unwind in energy prices and bond yields.
A fresh geopolitical development offered some relief. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu confirmed that Lebanon had requested direct talks, with Israel agreeing to engage. A senior Lebanese official signaled that negotiations would require U.S. guarantees and begin with a temporary ceasefire framework.
In commodities, WTI crude rose 3.8% to $98.01 per barrel, paring earlier gains after briefly reclaiming the $100 level.
Across U.S. equities, gains remained narrow but broadly distributed by midday, with consumer discretionary and industrials leading, while software and cloud names weighed on growth indices.

Litecoin launched in 2011 as a payments network. For 14 years it has operated without native smart contracts, DeFi, or programmable assets. LitVM changes that.
LitVM is Litecoin’s first trustless EVM rollup, officially endorsed by the Litecoin Foundation. It is built on Arbitrum Nitro with Succinct’s SP1 zkVM for validity proofs and BitcoinOS’s Grail Bridge for trustless LTC transfers. Its LiteForge testnet is live, opening Litecoin to DeFi protocols, yield markets, and tokenized assets for the first time.
Every protocol that deploys on LiteForge needs pricing infrastructure. Lending markets mark collateral against oracle prices. DEXs quote reference rates. Without reliable feeds, nothing that touches price data ships.
DIA is now the oracle layer for LitVM.
Price feeds for BTC, LTC, ETH, USDC and other major assets are deployed on LiteForge (chain ID 4441). Both push and pull delivery are available. Each dApp on LitVM configures its own data sources, update frequency, and deviation or time-based triggers. Lending protocols and perp DEXs have different requirements from the same infrastructure.
DIA sources data directly from exchanges and onchain venues rather than relying on third-party aggregators. Every feed is transparent at the source level. Long-tail assets native to LitVM’s ecosystem can be supported on request.
DIA's transparent, source-level data feeds align with what we're building: a DeFi ecosystem where nothing is hidden and nothing is trusted blindly. We're proud to have DIA as LitVM's oracle infrastructure provider.

Co-Founder, LitVM
LitVM’s roadmap extends into tokenized commodities, institutional yield, and AI applications. DIA’s product stack covers all three: RWA price feeds, proof of reserves and fundamental feeds, and verifiable randomness. These are available to LitVM builders as use cases emerge on the rollup.
The integration guide is available at diadata.org/docs/guides/chain-specific-guide/litvm. LitVM builders can request custom feed configurations or additional asset support by reaching out to the DIA team.

Bitcoin Depot Warns Of Going Concern RiskRecently, Bitcoin Depot said it may not be able to continue as a going concern after reporting a sharp revenue decline, rising litigation costs and ongoing regulatory pressure tied to its Bitcoin ATM business. The company disclosed the risks in an 8-K filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
The company filed a Form 12b-25 on May 12, stating it could not complete its quarterly Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2026, within the required deadline. Bitcoin Depot said it needed additional time to review financial statements related to a previously disclosed material weakness involving its cash-in-transit reconciliation process.
The company said state and municipal regulations restricting Bitcoin ATMs, transaction limits and fee caps, along with enhanced Know-Your-Customer compliance measures, significantly hurt transaction volume and revenue. Bitcoin Depot also disclosed more than $20 million in legal judgments accrued during the fourth quarter of 2025 and said ongoing litigation continues to strain resources.
Management concluded that "substantial doubt exists about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern."
Preliminary Q1 Results Show Sharp DeclineBitcoin Depot's preliminary first-quarter revenue fell $80.7 million, or 49.2% year over year, primarily due to lower transaction volume driven by regulatory changes and stricter compliance controls.
Gross profit dropped 85.5% to $4.5 million from $31.2 million a year earlier. The company reported a net loss of $9.5 million, compared with net income of $12.2 million in the prior-year quarter.
Operating expenses rose 32.3% year over year, mainly due to higher litigation costs. Cash and cash equivalents declined to $44 million as of March 31, down from $65.6 million at the end of 2025.
Bitcoin Depot said it is evaluating options including debt refinancing, asset sales, restructuring measures and other strategic transactions to address its financial challenges.
Technical AnalysisEven after Friday's jump, BTM is still in a longer-term downtrend: it's trading 45.8% below its 20-day SMA ($5.77) and 77.1% below its 200-day SMA ($13.69). That gap tells you the stock is trying to stabilize from a deeply damaged trend, but it hasn't reclaimed the moving-average "zones" that usually define healthier uptrends.
The bigger-picture trend signal remains heavy because the 50-day SMA is below the 200-day SMA (a death cross that occurred in November 2025). That said, the 20-day SMA is above the 50-day SMA, which can hint at a near-term basing attempt if price can start closing back above the shorter averages.
For momentum, MACD is the cleaner read right now: it's below its signal line and the histogram is negative, which points to fading upside pressure versus the prior upswing. In plain terms, when MACD is below its signal line, momentum is cooling unless buyers can push it back above that baseline.
From a structure standpoint, the stock is also coming off a recent swing low in March after a swing high in April, which frames the current move as a bounce inside a broader downtrend. With the 52-week range stretching from $48.16 to $1.91, BTM is still much closer to the low end of its yearly range than the high—another reminder that rallies may face overhead supply.

As part of efforts to power safe development of DeFi applications on its Web3 ecosystem, LitecoinVM, a Layer-2 solution designed to bring smart contracts and EVM compatibility to the Litecoin blockchain, today entered into a strategic partnership with DIA Oracles, a trustless blockchain oracle platform that delivers verifiable data feeds to onchain applications.
LitecoinVM is an EVM-compatible, zero-knowledge layer-2 rollup built on Litecoin, designed to bring smart contract functionality, DeFi utilities, and real-world asset tokenization to the Litecoin blockchain, which previously lacked these capabilities.
The above collaboration enabled LitecoinVM to integrate DIA open-source oracle infrastructure, ensuring that DApps (decentralized applications) and related development activities on the layer-2 network have access to reliable data feeds that are widely utilized across DeFi.
Why LitecoinVM Integrates DIA Oracles With the integration of DIA oracles, LitecoinVM resolves the common fundamental challenge: smart contracts’ inability to natively access off-chain data (data that exists outside the blockchain environment). For DApps on the LitecoinVM and interconnected chains to efficiently operate and fully unlock their capability in areas such as DeFi, NFTs, gaming, RWA, and several other Web3 utilities, they need to access real-world data. This is the function that DIA oracles come to play in LitecoinVM.
The integration of DIA oracles on the layer-2 network allows Litecoin developers to bring real-world data into LitecoinVM smart contracts, improving the functionality and utility of their DApps.

Travala.com, a blockchain-based hotel booking platform, has announced that crypto users can now pay with the stablecoin Tether (USDT). Travelers can book a stay at any number of accommodations around the world on the online platform by using USDT.
Travala.com is an Amsterdam-based travel firm with over 17,000 employees around the world. The company’s platform offers crypto users access to over two million properties in more than 90,000 destinations across 230 territories.
In addition to Tether, Travala.com also accepts crypto payments in the form of Bitcoin, Ethereum, XRP, Litecoin, Binance Coin, Bitcoin Cash, Stellar, and Cardano. The company touts that its prices are up to 40% cheaper than other travel booking platforms.
Says CEO Matt Luczynski,
“Part of our mission is to provide our users with a wide choice of the most well known and used cryptocurrencies so it made perfect sense for us to integrate USDT as a payment option on Travala.com.”
Tether is the most popular cryptocurrency in terms of trading volume. At time of writing, Tether’s 24-hour trading volume is over $26.6 billion compared to Bitcoin’s $22.1 billion. Ethereum is a far third at $8.47 billion.
Coinbase cryptocurrency exchange recently filed for regulatory approval to offer future products related to several altcoins, including SHIB and AVA. The submission to the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) includes proposals for derivatives tied to DOT, SHB, XLM, AVA, and LNK, with trading potentially commencing as early as July 15. This move aligns with Coinbase’s strategy to enhance its derivatives market and cater to a broader investor base, adhering strictly to U.S. regulatory standards.
Coinbase Files for Futures on SHIB, AVA The introduction of futures contracts for altcoins such as SHIB and AVA marks a significant expansion in Coinbase’s product offerings. Upon approval, these products will provide traders and institutional investors with new mechanisms to manage risk, speculate on price movements, and engage more fully in the cryptocurrency economy.
This expansion aims to diversify Coinbase’s portfolio and improve its users’ trading experience by requiring less capital upfront. The company’s approach underlines its commitment to increasing accessibility to the crypto economy while maintaining compliance with stringent regulatory frameworks.
Coinbase has proactively forged strategic partnerships to broaden its service capabilities and enhance on-chain adoption. A notable collaboration with payment processor Stripe is set to expedite transactions and integrate new systems that support faster and more affordable services.
This partnership focuses on integrating USDC on Stripe’s Base platform, facilitating quicker transactions across over 150 countries. Additionally, this collaboration will streamline the process for U.S. customers converting fiat to crypto, integrating convenient payment methods such as Apple Pay and credit cards directly into Coinbase’s Wallet service.

AVA Leads as Coinbase Proposes New Futures Seeking CFTC approval for these new futures listings is a calculated step by Coinbase to attract more institutional investors by ensuring a regulated trading environment. This regulatory adherence is crucial for building trust and credibility among a broader range of investors, particularly those cautious about the volatile nature of cryptocurrencies.
At the time of reporting, AVA had the largest market capitalization among the proposed altcoins, at $11.1 billion, and its trading price had slightly increased. In contrast, SHIB, despite its lower price point, remains a popular choice among investors, reflecting the diverse interest in the crypto market.

The derivatives arm of crypto exchange Coinbase has just submitted to the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) documents to self-certify the listing of new futures products tied to five popular crypto assets.
According to the filings, Coinbase Derivatives is launching futures contracts for Avalanche (AVA), Chainlink (LNK), Polkadot (DOT), Stellar (XLM), and Shiba Inu (SHB), which will all be offered for trading on or after July 15th.
[adinserter block="1"]
The documents say that Coinbase has spoken with futures commission merchants (FCMs) and market participants who support the decision to launch the contracts.
“The Exchange is not aware of any substantive opposing views to the Contract. The Exchange certifies that the Contract and related rules certified herein comply with the Commodity Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.”
In a statement, Coinbase Derivatives says it will be the first futures exchange in the US to introduce CFTC-regulated margined futures contracts for AVA, LINK, DOT, XLM and SHB.
“With the addition of AVA, LNK, DOT, XLM, and SHB, our participants and their clients gain more access points to manage risk, speculate on price movements, and participate in the crypto economy with reduced upfront capital requirements.”
Coinbase Derivatives also recently launched commodities futures contracts for oil and gold after noticing increased demand for retail-focused products on accessible and regulated exchanges. The new futures contracts are sized at 10 barrels of oil and one troy ounce of gold.
Users may now take advantage of zero-fee transactions when booking travel by using the Solana network integration. Additionally, user account wallets now support SOL, according to Travala.com. Crypto-native travel platform Travala.com, has said that it has extensively integrated the Solana network across the platform and will provide SOL travel rewards to users of its loyalty program. Following an AVA community vote, the integration will also see the deployment of AVA—the token used to access the travel reward program on Travala.com in conjunction with the AVA Foundation—deployed on Solana, making it the third network after Ethereum and BNB Chain where the AVA token may be accessible.
Travel bookings utilizing assets on the Solana network, such as SOL itself and USDT, USDC, and more, are now possible for Solana users thanks to Travala.com’s decision to offer support for the fourth-largest blockchain in the world by market capitalization.
Travelers will soon be able to use the AVA Smart Program, the travel loyalty program accessible on Travala.com, to get up to 10% of every booking back in SOL rewards as part of the extensive integration. As of right now, loyalty members may choose from a variety of travel reward alternatives based on their tier, including Bitcoin, AVA, and Travala.com Travel Credits. SOL will only be the third reward token available inside the loyalty program.
Additionally, user account wallets now support SOL, according to Travala.com. Less than ten cryptocurrencies are supported natively by the account wallet, despite the fact that Travala.com supports over 100 cryptocurrencies. Users may now take advantage of zero-fee transactions when booking travel by using the Solana network integration to make deposits and withdrawals of SOL, USDT, and USDC into their Travala.com account.
Juan Otero, CEO of Travala.com stated:
“The Solana network has become one of the most-used blockchains due to its cost effectiveness and scalability. Not only is the amount of activity within the Solana ecosystem incredible, so is the creativity. As innovators at Travala.com, the technologies that can be harnessed on the Solana network open significant avenues to build the next phase of travel.”
Beyond extending support for the Solana network and the soon-to-be SOL travel rewards, the connection goes beyond that. Travala.com has pledged to embrace the Solana ecosystem and will develop products on the high throughput network to capitalize on Solana’s cheap transaction costs and scalability. Going forward, Travala.com’s development strategy will be centered on Solana, with the aim of developing products that increase the practical applications of the Solana ecosystem.
The recent decision by Skyscanner to integrate Travala.com, which makes its inventory of more than 2,200,000 hotels completely discoverable on Skyscanner’s platforms, is followed by Travala.com’s integration with Solana. With this integration, Travala.com became the first crypto-native travel platform to be included to Skyscanner, a website that receives 110 million monthly visitors and users complete 80 billion searches daily.
Travala.com, which was established in 2017, is the top crypto-native travel booking platform, including over 2,200,000+ properties across 230 countries, over 400,000 activities, and over 600 airlines worldwide. As an advocate for the use of cryptocurrencies, Travala.com accepts more than 100 popular cryptocurrencies in addition to conventional payment options. For qualifying reservations booked on Travala.com, Smart members may take advantage of extra savings and loyalty benefits in addition to the website’s amazing pricing via its Best Price Guarantee.

The integration with Solana, known for its fast and cost-effective blockchain transactions, enables Travala users to make direct deposits and withdrawals of SOL, USDT, and USDC to their Travala accounts. This feature facilitates zero-fee transactions on travel bookings, enhancing the platform’s appeal to cryptocurrency users.
Travala is introducing SOL travel rewards as part of its loyalty program. Users can now earn up to 10% in SOL rewards through Travala’s Smart Program, further incentivizing the use of cryptocurrency for travel bookings.
The platform’s native token, AVA, is also being launched on the Solana blockchain, adding to its existing presence on Ethereum and BNB Chain. This multi-chain approach aims to increase AVA’s accessibility and utility within the broader cryptocurrency ecosystem.
Travala’s expansion comes on the heels of a recent partnership with global travel marketplace Skyscanner. This collaboration exposes Travala’s inventory of 2.2 million hotels to Skyscanner’s 110 million monthly users, positioning the crypto-native platform alongside major travel agencies like Expedia and Booking.com.
The Solana integration is part of Travala’s strategy to normalize cryptocurrency payments in the travel industry. By leveraging Solana’s scalability and low transaction costs, Travala aims to enhance its offerings and streamline the booking process for crypto users.
Otero emphasized the importance of visibility in achieving mass crypto adoption, stating that the Skyscanner integration allows users to discover and book through Travala while benefiting from cryptocurrency payment options and rewards.
Currently, Travala supports over 100 cryptocurrencies for bookings, but only a handful are natively supported in user wallets. The Solana integration addresses this limitation by allowing users to manage Solana-based assets directly within the Travala platform.
Travala plans to develop more products that capitalize on Solana’s strengths, including its speed and scalability. The company believes that Solana’s technology will create new opportunities for cryptocurrency-enabled travel services.
This integration aligns with Travala’s mission to promote cryptocurrency as a widely used payment method in the travel industry.
By combining the Solana integration with its Skyscanner partnership and loyalty program, Travala is positioning itself to attract more users to its cryptocurrency-friendly booking platform.

Binance Margin will phase out several BTC margin trading pairs, including Band Protocol, Gitcoin, Highstreet, Perpetual Protocol, STP, and AVA. This affects both cross and isolated-margin trading options, reducing available pairs for users.
The exchange has cautioned users to close positions and transfer affected assets from Margin Wallets to Spot Wallets to avoid potential losses. However, despite the delisting news, coins like Highstreet and Perpetual Protocol have surged by 6% to 12% in price, while AVA, Gitcoin, BAND, and STP recorded modest gains of 1% to 2%. This mixed market response highlights varying investor sentiment across the affected assets.
Binance To Delist These Tokens On December 3, Binance informed users about upcoming changes to its margin trading offerings. Several BTC trading pairs, including Band Protocol, Gitcoin, and Highstreet, will no longer be available for cross or isolated-margin trading.
According to the announcement, BAND/BTC and GTC/BTC cross-margin pairs, along with isolated margin pairs like AVA/BTC, HIGH/BTC, PERP/BTC, and STPT/BTC, will be removed. The delisting process begins on December 4, 2024, with the suspension of isolated margin borrowing. Full removal, including automatic closure of positions and cancellation of pending orders, will occur on December 11, 2024, at 06:00 UTC.
Binance, one of the top crypto exchanges, advises users to act proactively by closing positions and transferring funds to Spot Wallets ahead of these deadlines. While these pairs are being phased out, the underlying assets will still be tradable on other available pairs within the platform. These changes aim to streamline Binance’s offerings and better align with market demands.
Price Movements Of The Crypto Amid Delisting November saw a bullish trend in the crypto market, with approximately $1 trillion added in just one month. This surge in market momentum has positively impacted several of the affected assets, despite Binance’s delisting announcement.
Band Protocol (BAND) price traded at $1.90, up 4% in the last 24 hours and 22% over the past week. GTC price surged 40% in the past week, reaching $1.20, and has gained 100% over the last month. PERP rose 7% to $1.03, marking a 20% increase in just one week.
Highstreet (HIGH) price also saw strong performance, up 12% to $2.04. Meanwhile, STPT price exchanged hands at $0.05, a 40% hike over the past month. AVA price was up 8%, priced at $0.72, reflecting a positive short-term outlook despite the upcoming delisting.

Top Crypto Gainers Today on DEXTools
$NYRO, $TUCKER and $MELON are the top crypto gainers today on DEXTools as the broader crypto market attempts to rebound following recent sell pressure.
Bitcoin (BTC) was last up just over 1% in 24 hours and close to $40,000, as per CoinMarketCap.
Solana (SOL) and Internet Computer (ICP) were the biggest gainers, up 8% and 12% respectively.
But small-cap cryptocurrencies almost always take the mantle for the top crypto gainers each day.
That’s because their low level of liquidity means that relatively small buy pressure can easily result in fast exponential gains.
While blue-chip cryptocurrencies can offer good upside prospects, traders looking to make quick profits usually turn to low-cap markets.
Despite Wednesday’s rebound most major cryptos still look to be in a short-term downtrend.
Here are some of the top small-cap crypto gainers on Thursday as per DEXTools.
Top Crypto Gainers on DEXToolsNyro ($NYRO)A shitcoin called Nyro ($NYRO) has been pumping on Wednesday.
$NYRO was last up around 72,800% in the past 24 hours, as per DEXTools.
Still, its market cap is pretty tiny at only around $825,000, with under $70,000 in liquidity.
Potential investors should be very cautious that the token could be a scam.
It only has a DEXTscore of 25/99.
It also remains mostly unaudited, though Quick Intel shows it may be a mintable token.
Tucker ($TUCKER)A recently launched shitcoin called Tucker ($TUCKER), which is clearly based on the right wing US political commentator Tucker Carlson, has exploded and is one of the top crypto gainers on Wednesday.
$TUCKER is up 17,500% in the past 24 hours, as per DEXTools.
But the latest pump has seen it hit a market cap of only $915,000, and it has puny liquidity of just $26,000.
The token has just 300 holders and a low DEXTscore of 46/99.
But Investors should be cautious that it could be a scam, with the token’s smart contract still largely unaudited.
Catwifmelon ($MELON)A shitcoin called catwifmelon ($MELON) is attempting to ride off of recent hype in dogwifhat meme coins.
As per DEXTools, it was last up 43,600% on the day, making it one of the top crypto gainers today.
$MELON’s market cap was still a tiny $356,000, with liquidity of only around $40,000.
Investors should be very cautious that the token might be a scam, given its very low DEXTscore of 13/99.
The token’s smart contract also remains largely unaudited.
That means investors won’t know if malicious code has been inserted to rob them.
Crypto Alternatives to Consider
Low-cap coins can offer huge potential returns but also come with a lot of risk.
For those looking for a better probability of near-term gains, an alternative high-risk, high-reward investment strategy to consider is getting involved in crypto presales.
This is where investors buy the tokens of upstart crypto projects to help fund their development.
These tokens are nearly always sold cheaply, and there is a long history of presales delivering huge exponential gains to early investors.
Many of these projects have fantastic teams behind them and a great vision to deliver a revolutionary crypto application/platform.
If an investor can identify such projects, the risk/reward of their presale investment is very good.
The team at Cryptonews spends a lot of time combing through presale projects to help investors out.
Here is a list of 15 of what the project deems as the best crypto presales of 2023.
Enzyme enables the creation and scaling of your chosen investment strategies, from discretionary and robo to ETFs and market making. The second-generation smart contract-based platform is extensively tested and audited before any mainnet deployment.
Formerly known as Melon Protocol, Enzyme Finance is a protocol built on Ethereum (ETH) that allows users to create, manage, and invest in custom crypto asset management tools.
Enzyme aims to decentralize traditional asset management, historically the domain of professional financial advisors and firms. The idea is to reduce entry barriers into asset management with the MLN cryptocurrency, thereby providing access to more global consumers.
For example, managed funds typically require a minimum investment amount and management fees, which can make these wealth tools inaccessible to the average consumer. Today, the capabilities to create asset management funds, requiring significant capital and legal counsel, are also out of reach. Moreover, filing documents for a fund can take years.
At this point, Enzyme aims to create an alternative system. Using the project’s web portal, users can invest in funds and portfolios initiated by other users, and other users can invest in their creations. The Enzyme Finance protocol uses the MLN cryptocurrency to execute various transactions on the platform.
Enzyme Finance, formerly Melon, was built by Melonport, a private company founded in 2016 by former Goldman Sachs Vice President Mona El Isa and mathematician Rito Trinkler.
Between 2017 and 2018, 1,250,000 MLN cryptocurrencies were created and distributed by the Switzerland-based company. Melonport raised $2.9 million in an ICO in 2017. In 2019, after delivering the first version of the Enzyme Finance protocol, Melonport was dissolved and its management was transferred to the Melon Council, a decentralized autonomous organization (DAO).
How to Buy Enzyme Coin?MLN Coin can be quickly and securely purchased through Binance, the world’s largest cryptocurrency trading platform by trading volume, via Binance.
To buy MLN Coin, one must first register with Binance and then send fiat money. After sending fiat currency, such as dollars, one can buy MLN Coin in trading pairs with Bitcoin (BTC), Tether (USDT), Binance Coin (BNB), and BUSD.
Additionally, on Binance, users can place buy orders not only at the market price but also at a lower value. For this, use the Limit tab and enter the amount and price you want to buy.

Binance has issued a warning that has fueled discussions in the crypto market. For context, the leading cryptocurrency exchange announced plans to extend its Monitoring Tag to 11 tokens, putting them at risk of future delisting.
Meanwhile, tokens affected include Balancer (BAL), and Cortex (CTXC), among others, while Enzyme (MLN) and Horizon (ZEN) will be removed from the risk list. Several market watchers view this development as a signal for potential price volatility for the affected tokens.
Binance Adds Monitoring Tag To 11 Tokens Binance’s recent announcement about its Monitoring Tag has sent ripples through the crypto market. As of July 1, the exchange will add several tokens, including Balancer (BAL), Cortex (CTXC), and Convex Finance (CVX), to its Monitoring Tag list.
Meanwhile, as per the announcement, tokens with this tag are considered high-risk and are closely monitored for volatility and compliance with Binance’s listing criteria. The tokens newly added to the Monitoring Tag list are:
Balancer (BAL), Cortex (CTXC), PowerPool (CVP), Convex Finance (CVX), Dock (DOCK), Kava Lend (HARD), IRISnet (IRIS), MovieBloc (MBL), Polkastarter (POLS), Status (SNT), Sun (SUN).
In contrast, Enzyme (MLN) and Horizon (ZEN) will be removed from the Monitoring Tag list. This shift indicates a reassessment of the risks and stability associated with these tokens. However, Binance’s decision to tag these 11 tokens highlights their increased volatility and potential for not meeting the platform’s listing criteria in the future.
Meanwhile, according to Binance, the Monitoring Tag serves as a warning that the listed tokens are under scrutiny and may face delisting if they fail to meet specific standards. These standards include the project’s commitment, development activity, trading volume, network stability, public communication, and ethical conduct.
Binance emphasizes that the Monitoring Tag aims to maintain a healthy and sustainable cryptocurrency ecosystem.

Price Drop Ahead? The introduction of the Monitoring Tag for these tokens has significant implications for investors. Historically, announcements of this nature from major crypto exchanges like Binance tend to impact market sentiment and token performance. Positive announcements usually boost market confidence, while warnings and potential delistings can weigh on investors’ sentiment.
Meanwhile, the affected tokens could experience increased price volatility and reduced trading volume as investors respond to the perceived risk. Tokens under the Monitoring Tag are also subject to additional trading restrictions on Binance.
In addition, users must complete a quiz every 90 days to trade these tokens, ensuring they understand the associated risks. This additional layer of scrutiny aims to protect users and promote informed trading decisions.
The announcement underscores the importance of due diligence in the rapidly evolving crypto market. Investors must stay informed about the status and compliance of their holdings, particularly in light of such warnings from leading exchanges. In other words, Binance’s criteria for the Monitoring Tag emphasize the importance of project transparency, network stability, and ethical conduct.

Enzyme Coin (MLN) is the native cryptocurrency of Enzyme, a protocol aimed at simplifying on-chain asset management for the DeFi ecosystem.
What is Enzyme (MLN)?Enzyme (MLN) is an Ethereum-based decentralized asset management infrastructure. Using Enzyme Smart Vaults, individuals and communities can create, scale, and monetize investment strategies utilizing the latest innovations in decentralized finance.
Enzyme Finance was formerly known as the Melon protocol. It now has a new symbol and name, though the MLN token and contract address remain the same. MLN is used to pay for various functions throughout the vault creation process and investment cycle.
Enzyme allows depositors to interact with smart vaults in a non-custodial setup that requires minimal trust between parties. Vault managers can be restricted to or prohibited from certain actions. Additionally, using the Enzyme infrastructure, live data for both performance and fees that can be proven with on-chain data are available.
Policies such as fees or transactions related to investments can be quickly configured and enforced at the vault level on the platform. Vaults can be delegated to third-party addresses for trading and other functions. To manage a vault, one can go to the “Vault Manager” section in the Enzyme application and create a new vault. It is recommended to use the user documentation as a guide for setup.
Where to Buy MLN Coin?MLN Coin can be securely bought and sold on Binance, the world’s largest cryptocurrency exchange by trading volume. Enzyme Coin is traded on the Binance platform in pairs such as MLN/BTC, MLN/BNB, MLN/BUSD, and MLN/USDT.
To purchase MLN, one must first register on the Binance exchange. After completing the registration, cryptocurrency or fiat currency should be transferred to the Binance wallet. Once the transfer is complete, BarnBridge Coin can be purchased from any of the four pairs mentioned above. To buy from the MLN/USDT trading pair, first, go to the interface of this pair. In the limit tab of the MLN/USDT interface, enter the desired amount to purchase. After specifying the amount, the purchase is completed with the Buy MLN order.

Enzyme Finance, an Ethereum-based decentralized platform for asset management on-chain, has announced its new partnership with Compound DAO, an Ethereum-based DeFi protocol that permits crypto borrowing and lending. The partnership aims to optimize the management of treasury via unique on-chain options. The platform shared the details of this initiative in a recent X post.
Onchain options are becoming a way to make treasuries work harder. Here’s an example 👇@compoundfinance DAO recently demonstrated a sophisticated approach by integrating covered calls into their treasury strategy using Enzyme.Myso, targeting a ~15% APY.
The objective is… pic.twitter.com/ZhDJDQoQ1t
— Enzyme (@enzymefinance) July 13, 2025 Enzyme Finance and Compound Collaborate for Optimized Treasury Management The collaboration between Enzyme Finance and Compound DAO focuses on treasury management with robust optimization. This development underscores a noteworthy step in the evolution of decentralized autonomous organizations (DAOs) to enhance capital management. In this respect, the partnership integrates covered calls, which is an options strategy to generate yield while also retaining asset exposure. With this, Compound DAO targets a 15% annual percentage yield (APY).
Keeping this in view, the development is devoted to enhancing the idle assets’ productivity while maintaining a controlled and clear risk profile. At the core of this collaboration is Enzyme.Myso, which is a DeFi-native platform to enable execution and creation of diverse strategies concerning on-chain options. With local support for completely auditable flows as well as a framework for institutional-level DAOs and apps, Enzyme.Myso delivers the security and transparency that treasury operations require.
Driving Shift in DeFi Sector with Responsible Deployment of Idle Funds to Offer Sustainable Growth According to Enzyme Finance, Compound DAO’s integration of covered calls highlights a wider trend toward data-led and professionalized treasury management among decentralized organizations. Conventionally, DAOs have frequently faced capital inefficiency, often holding huge balances in governance tokens or stablecoins without any yield generation.
However, now, this partnership denotes a strategic shift in the case of responsible deployment of such funds for sustainable expansion. Overall, the joint effort plays the role of a blueprint for the rest of the institutional players and DAOs attempting to leverage DeFi options sector.

Nerite choses Onyx as their turnkey tech stack to seamlessly expand the utility of tBTC
We are proud to support Nerite, a decentralized borrowing protocol enabling users to deposit ETH, liquid staking tokens, and ARB as collateral to mint USND, its capital-efficient stablecoin. Built as a friendly fork of Liquity v2, Nerite gives borrowers flexibility and control by allowing them to set their own interest rates and manage collateral efficiently.
Capitalizing on a Flexible, Chain-Agnostic Architecture
The strategy borrows USND against tBTC collateral and deploys it within Nerite and other DeFi protocols integrated with USND, benefiting from Onyx’s flexible infrastructure that removes protocol and network limitations. It adjusts to market conditions to manage risk and preserve efficiency, with yield periodically rebalanced into tBTC. The fund is curated and managed by AGF through a Safe multisig wallet, processes deposits and redemptions daily, and leverages protocols such as Nerite, Aave, and Yearn, with a mandate centered on tBTC and USND.
By bringing this strategy on-chain through Enzyme Onyx, Nerite enables tBTC holders to access a growing borrowing and yield ecosystem on Arbitrum without compromising security, transparency, or operational flexibility.

Enzyme is proud to be integrating the Chainlink Runtime Environment (CRE), a new orchestration layer designed for institutional-grade smart contract operations.
Enzyme is proud to be integrating the Chainlink Runtime Environment (CRE), a new orchestration layer designed for institutional-grade smart contract operations. This will enhance the capabilities of Enzyme Onyx by enabling seamless administration of complex tokenized financial products across both traditional and decentralized ecosystems.
As demand grows for funds and financial instruments deployed on-chain with exposure to real-world assets, multi-chain portfolios, and hybrid strategies, the need for accurate and compliant reporting becomes essential. The integration of CRE will support Onyx users by streamlining valuation and reporting processes across networks, systems, and data sources in a unified and scalable manner.
Chainlink Runtime Environment
CRE is an all-in-one orchestration layer that enables institutional-grade smart contracts to interoperate effortlessly with blockchains, APIs, and traditional financial systems. It brings data, compliance, privacy, and operational integrity to environments where multiple systems need to communicate reliably. This unlocks a future where on-chain finance is not siloed from the broader financial ecosystem but connected to it in a seamless and verifiable way.
What CRE Unlocks for Enzyme Onyx
Onyx empowers asset managers and issuers to create, launch, and scale tokenized investment products capable of executing sophisticated strategies across any asset class or market environment. As these strategies increasingly span multiple blockchains (L1s, L2s) and offchain venues, maintaining accurate, compliant, and timely reporting becomes a major operational challenge.
With the integration of CRE, Onyx removes this complexity. Managers and issuers no longer need to rely on manual data collection, error-prone spreadsheets, or costly third-party attestations. NAV and performance data are automatically sourced and verified from onchain, CeFi, and traditional systems—providing real-time transparency and credibility that meet institutional expectations.
Powered by Enzyme’s modular architecture, Onyx cleanly separates administrative functions (NAV reporting, compliance, vehicle setup) from execution layers (strategy management, protocol interactions). This design ensures that all data pipelines remain secure, verifiable, and automated end-to-end.
By connecting directly to APIs, custodians, CeFi venues, and traditional brokerage systems, Chainlink CRE delivers the interoperability and reliability required for institutional-grade accounting and reporting. The result is a more efficient and scalable platform—one that enhances investor confidence, simplifies fund operations, and enables managers and issuers to grow faster with less operational friction.
This integration reinforces Enzyme’s commitment to delivering a complete infrastructure for tokenized finance. By combining Onyx’s flexibility with Chainlink’s data and orchestration capabilities, we continue to expand the operational foundation required for regulated, scalable, and efficient financial products on-chain.Interested in building your own tokenized strategies or products on Onyx?

Passif is a digital asset investment manager, focused on delivering stable, risk-adjusted performance independent of market direction. Their flagship product, the Passif Alpha Fund, is a tokenized hedge fund engineered to preserve capital while enabling daily liquidity and real-time investor visibility into strategy activity.
The Challenge
Running modular, market-neutral strategies across multiple DeFi venues comes with significant operational demands. Strategy execution, risk controls, fee enforcement, and investor reporting must remain accurate and transparent at all times. For an investment manager focused on institutional discipline, building and maintaining the backend systems required to support this environment can divert resources from strategy, slow innovation, and restrict scale.
Passif sought an infrastructure that could uphold rigorous governance and transparency while simplifying fund administration and enabling seamless growth.
The Solution : Onyx for seamless administration
Onyx gives Passif the foundation to design, launch, and operate a tokenized hedge fund entirely on-chain. Granular accounting, fee frameworks, and subscription reporting capabilities are built directly into the infrastructure, reducing dependence on custom systems and materially simplifying operational overhead. Passif gains the ability to scale a sophisticated, multi-strategy portfolio while preserving investor safeguards and clear visibility into fund activity.
“We built Passif to deliver stable, market-independent returns, something traditional finance has stopped delivering. Onyx lets us structure and run our entire fund stack without ever touching custom infrastructure. It is fast, clean, modular, and investor-friendly by design. We needed a platform that gives our investors clear transparency and seamless scalability.”
— Eriz Zarate, Founder, Passif
Executing a Hedge Fund strategy with Ledger Wallets
The Passif Alpha Fund is a delta-neutral hedge fund designed for investors seeking consistent yield alongside strict capital preservation. Powered by Passif’s proprietary NeutralLoop™ framework, the fund reallocates stable-value assets across multiple hedged DeFi strategies, targeting 3–4× capital efficiency while eliminating directional market exposure.
Through Enzyme’s flexible architecture, capital can be deployed across a wide range of integrated venues including Pendle, Morpho Blue, Aave V3, Curve, Convex, EigenLayer, Swaap, Gearbox and others. Onyx removes the infrastructure constraints that typically limit multi-protocol execution, allowing Passif to operate its strategy with full modularity.
Execution of the underlying strategy is carried out using Ledger hardware wallets, bringing hardware-level security to day-to-day strategy management. Investors still benefit from T+0 liquidity and real-time visibility into activity, while Onyx maintains the operational structure needed for an institutional-grade experience.

Enzyme, the global infrastructure for tokenized finance, and Particula, the prime rating provider for digital assets, today announced a strategic product partnership aimed at empowering asset managers and product issuers to streamline the launch of risk-rated tokenized investment products and facilitate institutional distribution across the onchain economy.
At the core of the collaboration is the integration of Enzyme’s Onyx solution with Particula’s RWA risk‑intelligence framework. Enzyme Onyx provides a technology stack for issuing and administering tokenized funds and instruments, including ETPs and structured notes. Particula applies its rules-based methodology to deliver independent risk ratings and ongoing monitoring across structural design, counterparty risk, underlying asset quality, and other key risk factors.Together, the integration creates a unified environment enabling issuers to design, launch, and scale tokenized products with embedded risk assessment capabilities from inception.
A Product Partnership Designed for the Next Wave of RWA Issuers
This partnership offers RWA issuers a streamlined way to design, launch, manage, and distribute tokenized financial products onchain. Key capabilities include:
Build products aligned with recognized industry best practices.Embed transparent, real time risk ratings to strengthen investor trust.Leverage modular risk, compliance, and lifecycle tooling natively integrated into the product’s smart contracts.Tap into a growing distribution network of onchain allocators and marketplaces.Position your offerings competitively as true institutional-grade investment instruments.“This partnership meaningfully reduces the friction allocators face when evaluating and deploying capital into structured onchain products. With Particula’s ratings integrated, allocators can finally access risk-assessed RWA opportunities with clarity and confidence”, said Luca Mossini, Enzyme.
Independent Risk Assessment as a Market StandardAs the RWA market matures, third-party risk differentiation is becoming increasingly important for capital allocation decisions.

Improving transparency, NAV accuracy, and lifecycle reporting for on-chain vaults.
Enzyme, a leading onchain asset management infrastructure provider, and 1Token, a globally recognized digital asset accounting and reporting platform, today announced a strategic product partnership aimed at improving transparency, NAV accuracy, and lifecycle reporting for onchain vaults.
Through this integration, vault managers will be able to generate verified NAV calculations, reconcile holdings across both CeFi and DeFi, and surface real-time transparency reports directly within the Enzyme smart contract layer. This gives investors a clearer, more reliable view of vault activity while reducing operational friction for product managers.
Enhancing transparency and reporting for vault managers and investors
The partnership combines Enzyme’s latest stack for tokenized funds and instruments issuance with 1Token’s institutional-grade accounting stack, enabling managers to:
Produce accurate NAV, PnL and key risk metricsTrack holdings across CeFi and DeFi with unified reconciliationGenerate reconciled trade reports for further financial reporting Offer investors a reliable, verifiable view of assets, flows, and historical activityThis integration removes a longstanding pain point in on-chain asset management: the difficulty of delivering transparent, consistent, and auditable reporting across fragmented ecosystems and data sources.
“With 1Token’s accounting and CeFi and DeFi data capabilities integrated into Enzyme, we are removing one of the biggest frictions for allocators: gaining trustworthy, verifiable visibility into how capital is deployed across both onchain and centralized venues. This level of transparency is essential for unlocking the next wave of institutional flows into structured onchain products, and it helps avoid the blackboxes that leave investors in the dark during periods of market stress” - said Luca Mossini, Enzyme.
A unified transparency stack across DeFi and CeFi
This partnership builds on Enzyme’s growing data ecosystem, extending it with critical CeFi coverage. 1Token fills a long-standing gap for managers operating hybrid strategies by unifying CeFi and DeFi data into a single, auditable accounting framework, including full NAV, PnL, and reconciliation tooling.
Chainlink further enhances this stack by enabling issuers to define custom price oracles and bespoke valuation logic directly within on-chain vaults and ERC-20 shares.
What this means for product issuers in DeFi and RWA using Enzyme?
Unified tracking of both on-chain and CeFi positionsThe ability to display complete portfolio views, including exchange balances, wallets, LP positions, and cross-chain exposuresSupport for creating custom price oracles, powered by Chainlink, enabling issuers to feed vaults with bespoke pricing modelsMore transparent, accurate, and investor-ready reporting, including verified NAV and audit-grade lifecycle accountingA simplified workflow for building products that attract institutional capital, thanks to reduced friction in transparency and verification“Enzyme’s architecture allows managers to build sophisticated products while embedding accurate accounting and CeFi tracking directly into the design phase. We are excited to bring 1Token’s institutional reporting capabilities to Enzyme vaults and help issuers deliver world-class transparency to their investors,” - said Gloria Yao, 1Token.

Enzyme is pleased to announce that two of its flagship protocols — Enzyme Onyx and Enzyme Myso — will be ported to the Canton Network, making them natively available on both EVM-compatible chains and Canton. Expected to launch in early Q3, this marks a significant milestone in Enzyme's commitment to building financial infrastructure that is not only technically robust, but positioned at the forefront of the emerging institutional blockchain landscape.
Enzyme Onyx and Enzyme Myso: A Brief OverviewEnzyme Onyx is the complete technical stack for issuing, structuring, and administering tokenized funds and financial instruments. Built for the innovators of modern markets, Onyx gives enterprises the freedom to create and manage fully tokenized strategies across any asset class, network, and financial system. From tokenized hedge funds, money market funds, and mutual funds to structured financial instruments, Onyx provides institutional-grade infrastructure covering the full lifecycle of a tokenized vehicle — including accounting, subscriptions, redemptions, NAV reporting, fee management, and investor onboarding — all delivered in a white-label environment that enterprises can deploy as their own.
Enzyme Myso is the premier protocol for creating, trading, and managing fully customizable on-chain options strategies. Myso enables issuers and trading firms to create and sell bespoke covered calls and cash-secured puts, settling on-chain either through its automated marketplace or over-the-counter. With deep cross-firm liquidity, non-custodial settlement, and a wide range of configurable parameters, from strike prices and expiries to auction mechanics and premium structures, Myso brings institutional-grade derivatives infrastructure entirely on-chain, eliminating counterparty risk and intermediary friction.
Until now, both protocols have operated exclusively within EVM-compatible environments. Going forward, they will be available as Canton-native applications as well, extending their reach to one of the most consequential institutional blockchain networks in the world.
From EVM to Multi-Chain: Why Canton, and Why NowThe decision to bring Enzyme Onyx and Myso to Canton is a deliberate strategic commitment — not simply a technical integration, but an alignment with the infrastructure we believe will define the normalization of blockchain in regulated financial markets.
Canton is designed as a network of networks, where each participating institution maintains its own sub-ledger while connecting with others via a shared synchronization layer enabling real-time settlement across multiple asset classes on a shared, interoperable infrastructure, without sacrificing privacy or control.
Unlike other approaches, Canton enforces visibility and authorization rules at the smart contract level, ensuring that parties can only see the portions of a transaction that apply to them. This architecture is built around the principle of data minimization — a requirement, not a preference, for regulated financial actors.
The institutions backing Canton speak to its trajectory: launched in 2023 by a consortium including BNP Paribas, Goldman Sachs, Deutsche Börse, CBOE, and Moody's, it was designed from the outset to modernize post-trade processes in global capital markets. Canton is not an experiment — it is becoming the reference network for institutional blockchain adoption.
For Enzyme, joining this ecosystem is a recognition that the normalization of on-chain financial markets will happen on infrastructure that institutional actors can trust and build upon with the confidence required by their regulatory obligations. Canton is that infrastructure.
Use Cases Unlocked on Canton : a step into modern financial marketBy porting Enzyme Onyx and Myso natively to Canton, we are enabling two critical financial use cases to operate within this institutional-grade ecosystem for the first time.
Tokenized Funds supporting on-chain and off-chain asset classes, Natively on CantonWith Enzyme Onyx on Canton, fund managers will be able to deploy and operate fully tokenized investment funds directly within the Canton network with the flexibility to run strategies spanning on-chain assets such as cryptocurrencies, and off-chain asset classes including equities, fixed income, T-Bills, real estate, and beyond. This means fund vehicles, including their subscription logic, valuation mechanisms, allocation policies, and redemption flows, will benefit from Canton's privacy-preserving architecture, where sensitive portfolio data is visible only to the appropriate counterparties, while settlement and synchronization occur in real time across participants.
For fund administrators, institutional investors, and asset managers engaging with Canton's ecosystem of regulated participants, this represents a meaningful step toward a fully native on-chain fund infrastructure that meets the standards of professional capital markets.
Options Strategies : Calls and Puts, American and European options Natively on CantonEnzyme Myso on Canton will bring structured derivatives to the network for the first time in a fully native and on-chain form. Institutions and sophisticated counterparties will be able to construct, issue, and settle Covered Calls and Cash-Secured Put options entirely within the Canton environment, with the privacy guarantees and atomic settlement finality that the network provides. This opens the door to on-chain derivatives infrastructure that does not compromise on confidentiality, counterparty controls, or regulatory compliance, making Myso a natural fit for the institutional actors and financial intermediaries who are building on Canton.
Our Commitment to EVM Remains UnwaveringExpanding to Canton does not represent a departure from our roots, it represents their natural extension. The EVM ecosystem remains Enzyme's historical home and a network in which we have deep, enduring confidence. The breadth of DeFi composability, the density of developer talent, and the maturity of EVM infrastructure continue to make it the most dynamic environment for decentralized finance. Enzyme Onyx and Myso will continue to evolve on EVM with the same level of dedication and ambition as always.
Enzyme joins Rayls as a launch partner, expanding tokenized fund infrastructure to global markets
Enzyme is pleased to announce that it is joining Rayls as a launch partner, bringing Enzyme Onyx and Enzyme Myso natively to the Rayls network. This marks a significant step in Enzyme's commitment to making institutional-grade tokenized fund infrastructure available wherever regulated financial markets are building on-chain.
Enzyme Onyx and Enzyme Myso: A Brief OverviewEnzyme Onyx is the complete technical stack for issuing, structuring, and administering tokenized funds and financial instruments. Built for the innovators of modern markets, Onyx gives enterprises the freedom to create and manage fully tokenized strategies across any asset class, network, and financial system. From tokenized hedge funds, money market funds, and mutual funds to structured financial instruments, Onyx provides institutional-grade infrastructure covering the full lifecycle of a tokenized vehicle (including accounting, subscriptions, redemptions, NAV reporting, fee management, and investor onboarding) all delivered in a white-label environment that enterprises can deploy as their own.

With deep cross-firm liquidity, non-custodial settlement, and a wide range of configurable parameters, from strike prices and expiries to auction mechanics and premium structures, Myso brings institutional-grade derivatives infrastructure entirely on-chain, eliminating counterparty risk and intermediary friction.
Until now, both protocols have operated exclusively within the Ethereum ecosystem. Going forward, they will be available as Rayls-native platforms as well, extending their reach to one of the most consequential institutional blockchain networks in the world.
Expanding the Institutional Frontier: Why Rayls, and Why NowRayls is an EVM-compatible Layer 1 blockchain built specifically for financial institutions. Its architecture combines a compliant public chain with a network of private institutional nodes, enabling banks and regulated institutions to issue, settle, and manage financial assets on-chain while retaining the data privacy and compliance controls their operations require.
What distinguishes Rayls from most institutional blockchain networks is the depth of its real-world deployment. Rayls has been selected by the Central Bank of Brazil for the Drex wholesale CBDC pilot and is already installed within 16 of the largest banks in the region. Núclea, a leading financial market infrastructure provider, is utilizing Rayls to tokenize commercial receivables at scale, bringing high-volume financial assets onto a transparent, on-chain ledger. The network's global technical credibility is further evidenced by its performance in J.P. Morgan's Project EPIC benchmark. This evaluation of privacy-focused blockchain solutions for institutional finance ranked Rayls among the leading candidates.
By joining Rayls as a launch partner, Enzyme is ensuring that its global infrastructure for tokenized finance is integrated with an infrastructure built to handle the complexity and scale of modern, regulated capital markets.
What Enzyme Onyx and Myso Bring to RaylsBy deploying Enzyme Onyx and Enzyme Myso natively to Rayls, we are enabling two pivotal financial use cases to operate within this institutional-grade ecosystem for the first time.
Tokenized Funds supporting on-chain and off-chain asset classes, Natively on RaylsWith Enzyme Onyx on Rayls, fund managers will be able to deploy and operate fully tokenized investment funds directly within the Rayls blockchain with the flexibility to run strategies spanning on-chain assets such as cryptocurrencies, and off-chain asset classes including equities, fixed income, T-Bills, real estate, and beyond.

For fund administrators, institutional investors, and asset managers engaging with the Rayls ecosystem, this represents a meaningful step toward a fully native on-chain infrastructure that meets the standards of professional capital markets.
Options Strategies : Calls and Puts Natively on RaylsEnzyme Myso on Rayls will bring structured derivatives to the network in a fully native and on-chain form. Institutions and sophisticated counterparties will be able to construct, issue, and settle Covered Calls and Cash-Secured Put options entirely within the Rayls environment, utilizing the privacy-preserving settlement and compliance controls that the network provides.
This opens the door to on-chain derivatives infrastructure that does not compromise on confidentiality, counterparty controls, or regulatory compliance, making Myso a natural fit for the institutional actors and financial intermediaries who are building on Rayls.
Our Commitment to Multi-Chain InfrastructureExpanding to Rayls reflects a principle for us: institutional tokenized finance will not settle on a single network. Different markets, different regulatory environments, and different institutional ecosystems will build on different infrastructure, and Enzyme's role is to be the operational layer that works across all of them.
The crypto industry offers diverse opportunities, allowing users to tap into new investment opportunities. However, the technicalities in navigating the market make it difficult to have a seamless experience.
Klever prides itself on a cohort of products that serve as game changers. It is a blockchain company that offers a suite of products that ease users’ crypto experiences. Headquartered in Switzerland, the platform was founded in 2019 by Dio Ianakiara. With over 100 employees with expertise from diverse backgrounds driving innovation. Klever has over four million downloads across more than 190 countries worldwide.
Unlike most blockchains, Klever takes a unique initiative in building an all-in-one ecosystem that satisfies every user’s crypto needs. This article breaks down these products and how they are used.
Klever Blockchain Klever Wallet KleverSafe KleverScan VoxSwap Bitcoin.me Devikins Conclusion Klever Blockchain Klever blockchain, also known as KleverChain, is a layer-1 blockchain network. Initially launched on the Tron blockchain, KleverChain transitioned to its own mainnet in July 2022. It serves as an alternative to Ethereum, Tron, Solana, and other blockchains. On KleverChain, users can propose new fees for the network, making an innovative step in the layer-1 blockchain landscape.
KleverChain uses the proof-of-stake (PoS) consensus model, enabling the network to process fast and inexpensive transactions. The layer-1 network has already recorded 3,000 transactions per second during peak usage. Its consensus algorithm fosters an energy-efficient ecosystem. Validators secure the network, and users must own at least 10 million KLV tokens to run a validator node.
The blockchain network houses all on-chain activities involving Klever’s products. It is also compatible with smart contracts, enabling the onboarding of decentralized applications (dApps), also called KApps.
The L1 blockchain has a functionality called KleverOS SDK, which allows developers to create dApps with minimal programming experience and smart contract expertise. It is compatible with prominent programming languages like JavaScript, Go Lang, and .NET. The blockchain network also makes the onboarding process seamless for developers through the layer-2 scaling solution, KleverChain Virtual Machine (KVM).
KleverChain’s native cryptocurrency is KLV, with a total supply of 10 billion coins. It is a utility token that powers the products within the Klever ecosystem. Before KleverChain’s creation, the cryptocurrency was initially deployed on the Tron network under the TRC-20 token standard.
KLV (KDA) can be staked for additional profits. It is also used to pay transaction fees on the KleverChain. KLV can also be used to buy KFI, Klever Finance’s governance token used to partake in voting processes within the Klever ecosystem. A portion of the transaction fee, paid with KLV coin is burned, removing portions of the supply from circulation to bolster the cryptocurrency’s value and make it a deflationary protocol.
Klever Wallet
Klever Wallet is a multi-chain crypto wallet that connects users with dApps on the Klever network. It is compatible with several blockchain networks like KleverChain, Ethereum, Binance Smart Chain, Polygon, and 25+ others. The wallet supports over 10,000 crypto assets like BTC, ETH, PEPE, SHIB and MATIC.
Klever Wallet is a self-custodial wallet, implying that users do not need to register or undergo a Know Your Customer (KYC) assessment before using the platform. Users create accounts by generating 24 seed words, granting access to the digital wallet. Users must secure these words to avoid permanent loss of funds if their devices are misplaced.
The crypto wallet comes with a Klever browser that allows users to access dApps, facilitate crypto swaps, and offer staking capabilities. Klever also enables users to fund their wallets with Visa and Mastercard payment cards and bank transfers. Users can also use payment providers like MoonPay, Paybis, Mercuryo and Simplex.
In March 2023, the Klever team launched the Klever Wallet K5, the latest version of its wallet service. Touted as the most comprehensive and user-friendly wallet, the K5 upgrade brought additional features to the Klever Wallet. For example, it enabled access to free .klever domains for users through a partnership with Unstoppable Domains. Users create a domain by creating a K5 wallet.
The innovation didn’t stop there. Klever Wallet K5 also revolutionized the travel experience for its users by integrating with Travala, a leading cryptocurrency-friendly travel booking platform. This partnership allowed users to seamlessly book flights, hotels, and other travel experiences directly within the Klever Wallet interface. The added convenience of paying with KLV or any other supported cryptocurrency made exploring the world more accessible than ever before.
The Klever Wallet K5 has a mobile and web interface. The mobile app is available on the Google Play Store, App Gallery and the App Store, and the web version is accessible through the Klever Extension.
What is Klever Wallet Extension? Klever Wallet Extension simply gives users access to Klever Wallet on Desktop devices via a web browser like Chrome, Brave, or Opera Mini. It allows users to access cryptocurrencies and non-fungible tokens (NFTs) and connect to dApps and DeFi protocols. It is also compatible with multiple blockchains. Users can also create multiple accounts for different purposes.

Apart from privacy, VoxSwap also boasts a fast and functional interface. The platform supports over 550+ swap pairs, allowing users to enjoy near-instant swaps across multiple blockchains.
The platform further differentiates itself by offering limit order features thereby empowering users with more sophisticated trading strategies.
Furthermore, VoxSwap’s reach extends beyond individual users. The platform has an affiliate program that invites entrepreneurs and platforms to create custom-branded widgets and embed them on their websites or apps. Through their customized widget, affiliates can reap rewards for each swap completed.
With a commitment to improvement, VoxSwap continuously adds swap options, expands liquidity, and grows the platform’s accessible blockchains, intending to reach a global audience.
Bitcoin.me
Bitcoin.me offers users a flexible trading experience. The exchange interface is simple and intuitive, making it easy for anyone to discover NFTs, swap, and trade crypto assets with very low fees and minimum limits—all from one platform.
Devikins
Devikins is a turn-based role-playing game where players collect, breed, and battle with scary but cute in-game characters called Devikins. Each Devikin is represented as an NFT that can be hatched and trained from infancy to adulthood. Each character possesses its own distinct visual and combat attributes, ensuring that no two characters look exactly alike, contributing to the game’s rich diversity and individuality.
These “cute rascals” can also be trained with different weapons to improve their battle expertise. The game’s lore explains that Devikins live in a realm called the Void.
Interestingly, users do not need to hold a Devikin to play the game. However, they must own one of the collectibles to unlock features like breeding and mutation. At the same time, a user can own a Devikins and not use it within the game. Gamers also do not need crypto knowledge to play the game.
Devikins was launched in April 2022 by MoonLabs, a gaming studio affiliated with Klever. In fact, Klever’s co-founder, Dio Ianakiara, began his role as MoonLabs Studios’ CEO in January 2024. The gaming studio was originally led by its co-founder, Sergio Nunes.
Devicoin (DVK) serves as the native cryptocurrency for the Devikins ecosystem. Built on the KleverChain, DVK holds real-world value and can be traded for other cryptocurrencies or converted to fiat currency.

What is Klever Coin?
Klever Coin (KLV), the utility token, plays a key role in various important functions across its ecosystem. The circulating supply is about 5,393,319,661 KLV, and the maximum supply is capped at 10,000,000,000 KLV, with the utility of the token extending to transaction fees, validator staking & rewards, delegation, minting, and transfers within Klever Blockchain. Remarkably, about 1,489,657,057 KLV have been burned, implying better management of supply and may lead to scarcity.
With versatility and independence needed for different activities by Klever’s infrastructure and user experience, KLV is indispensable. Users can spend money on transaction costs that are on-blockchain or store their value within it. The other uses of the token include peer-to-peer payments processed by reduced fees as well as swap and exchange operations with lower transaction fees. Also, KLV enables them to make Klever Digital Assets on Klever issue new tokens across supported blockchains that provide liquidity for all KDA tokens and stablecoins.
The token’s incorporation into Klever’s merchandise, platforms, and facilities increases credibility, responsibility, and operational flexibility for Klever’s worldwide user base. KLV incentivizes involvement and reinforces the security of the network through features like staking for validators, staking for hourly rewards, and delegation services. This wide-ranging utility framework highlights how KLV is vital in advancing Klever’s ecosystem as it promotes innovation and strong DeFi utilities within blockchain technology.
Klever Finance Token (KFI)
The Klever Finance Token (KFI) is one of the most important elements in community governance on Klever. Token holders can vote through the blockchain to control how applications operate, like establishing charges and approving new apps. Additionally, KFI owners will be entitled to get rewards in KLV from these applications.
Every application within the KFI governance structure maintains its ability to set its own fees it charges users for utilizing them. All payments collected are divided among KFI owners at 100%, with claimants having to personally collect their rewards. KFI holders have to freeze their tokens if they want to participate in this system of incentives. Network participants will also receive compensation by providing liquidity for any Klever-based tokens by adding them with KLV, thus receiving some KFI tokens via the process of their liquidity mining, which is interesting enough.
