JLL research finds real estate demand is being reshaped by AI's impact on a market and its ability to adapt
, /PRNewswire/ -- Across the U.S., the markets defined by sectors most exposed to AI-driven job displacement are also seeing the strongest real estate demand from AI companies, according to new research from JLL (NYSE: JLL). The finding challenges the assumption that AI will uniformly compress commercial real estate footprint. The research, conducted in partnership with MIT's Sloan School of Management and Center for Real Estate, instead shows that AI is creating deep divergence across markets, industries, and asset classes, separating those with the capacity to adapt from those without.
This divergence is already stark. The Where AI is Changing Jobs and What it Means For Real Estate research finds that even as overall U.S. tech employment declined by 1.5% in early 2026, office leasing demand in the sector continues to rebound, demonstrating a clear decoupling of AI growth from broader trends in tech and other office-using industries.
This is in part due to how AI operates through three simultaneous forces on labor markets: augmenting existing roles without reducing headcount, selectively displacing specific job types, and creating entirely new categories of work. While five percent of job cuts in 2025 identify AI as a primary driver, over one million AI-related jobs were created between 2023 and 2025. The balance of these forces varies significantly by geography and industry, creating diverging real estate trends.
In San Francisco, for example, nearly 30% of total leasing has come from AI companies since 2025, while the city carries among the highest exposure to AI-driven job dislocation risks in the U.S. This trend demonstrates that a market's capacity to adapt, capitalize on new opportunities, and redeploy the workforce is more critical to real estate performance than exposure risk alone.
"We are seeing this split play out in real time. The winning real estate strategies will be those that look beyond the headlines about job losses and focus on a market and industry's ability to adapt," said Alexandra Bryant, Global CEO, Value & Risk Advisory. "It's no longer about whether a market has AI exposure. It's about whether it has the right mix of talent, infrastructure, and quality real estate to capitalize on the opportunities AI creates."
These combined forces are already reshaping demand across markets, defining four clear trajectories:
High Negative Disruption in markets where automation in back-office and administrative roles shrinks teams, reducing the need for traditional office space. Low Disruption Augmentation in markets where AI assists skilled knowledge workers, driving companies to upgrade to higher-quality, collaborative offices. High Offsetting Disruption as industries restructure and companies relocate roles, creating a geographic redistribution of space demand without decreasing total demand size. AI Boom Upside in innovation hubs and AI-native sectors, which creates competition for premium buildings. A market's industry composition and employment structure are the primary factors determining the trajectory it tracks.
At the industry level, this divergence runs equally deep. Logistics and healthcare are using AI to augment their workforces while keeping core growth drivers intact. Professional services and data centers, by contrast, are restructuring delivery models around AI to produce more with leaner teams. Even as some sectors restructure toward smaller teams, headcount is not contracting in total, as globally, 60% of companies still plan to expand their workforces in the next 3–5 years, according to JLL's 2026 Future of Work Survey.
Another key point to note is that AI's impact on jobs does not automatically flow through to real estate. Supply conditions and the broader economy can offset, delay, or amplify that impact, which is in part why markets and properties with similar labor exposure can still perform very differently. Office construction activity in U.S. and Europe is hitting a historic low, pushing trophy asset rents to all-time highs.
"Outperformance in this cycle won't only come from yield compression. It will come from driving value at an asset level through better understanding how these thematics will translate into asset and submarket impact," Bryant said. "The winners will be the investors who act on these signals now, ahead of the data."
Ultimately, navigating the AI-driven shift requires a new playbook. For investors, success now means acting on early labor market signals before transaction data can confirm the trend. For occupiers, it demands moving beyond static headcount to plan space around how work is actually performed — a more dynamic approach for a more dynamic era.

e.l.f. Beauty (ELF - Free Report) has recently been on Zacks.com's list of the most searched stocks. Therefore, you might want to consider some of the key factors that could influence the stock's performance in the near future.
Over the past month, shares of this cosmetics company have returned +26.1%, compared to the Zacks S&P 500 composite's -0.6% change. During this period, the Zacks Cosmetics industry, which e.l.f. Beauty falls in, has gained 3.1%. The key question now is: What could be the stock's future direction?
While media releases or rumors about a substantial change in a company's business prospects usually make its stock 'trending' and lead to an immediate price change, there are always some fundamental facts that eventually dominate the buy-and-hold decision-making.
Revisions to Earnings EstimatesHere at Zacks, we prioritize appraising the change in the projection of a company's future earnings over anything else. That's because we believe the present value of its future stream of earnings is what determines the fair value for its stock.
Our analysis is essentially based on how sell-side analysts covering the stock are revising their earnings estimates to take the latest business trends into account. When earnings estimates for a company go up, the fair value for its stock goes up as well. And when a stock's fair value is higher than its current market price, investors tend to buy the stock, resulting in its price moving upward. Because of this, empirical studies indicate a strong correlation between trends in earnings estimate revisions and short-term stock price movements.
For the current quarter, e.l.f. Beauty is expected to post earnings of $0.71 per share, indicating a change of -20.2% from the year-ago quarter. The Zacks Consensus Estimate has changed +0.5% over the last 30 days.
For the current fiscal year, the consensus earnings estimate of $3.31 points to a change of +5.8% from the prior year. Over the last 30 days, this estimate has changed +0.1%.
For the next fiscal year, the consensus earnings estimate of $3.64 indicates a change of +9.9% from what e.l.f. Beauty is expected to report a year ago. Over the past month, the estimate has changed +2%.
Having a strong externally audited track record, our proprietary stock rating tool, the Zacks Rank, offers a more conclusive picture of a stock's price direction in the near term, since it effectively harnesses the power of earnings estimate revisions. Due to the size of the recent change in the consensus estimate, along with three other factors related to earnings estimates, e.l.f. Beauty is rated Zacks Rank #3 (Hold).
The chart below shows the evolution of the company's forward 12-month consensus EPS estimate:
12 Month EPS
Projected Revenue GrowthEven though a company's earnings growth is arguably the best indicator of its financial health, nothing much happens if it cannot raise its revenues. It's almost impossible for a company to grow its earnings without growing its revenue for long periods. Therefore, knowing a company's potential revenue growth is crucial.
For e.l.f. Beauty, the consensus sales estimate for the current quarter of $425.66 million indicates a year-over-year change of +20.3%. For the current and next fiscal years, $1.86 billion and $1.99 billion estimates indicate +13.6% and +7% changes, respectively.
Last Reported Results and Surprise Historye.l.f. Beauty reported revenues of $449.29 million in the last reported quarter, representing a year-over-year change of +35.1%. EPS of $0.32 for the same period compares with $0.78 a year ago.
Compared to the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $425.82 million, the reported revenues represent a surprise of +5.51%. The EPS surprise was +10.34%.
The company beat consensus EPS estimates in each of the trailing four quarters. The company topped consensus revenue estimates three times over this period.
ValuationWithout considering a stock's valuation, no investment decision can be efficient. In predicting a stock's future price performance, it's crucial to determine whether its current price correctly reflects the intrinsic value of the underlying business and the company's growth prospects.
Comparing the current value of a company's valuation multiples, such as its price-to-earnings (P/E), price-to-sales (P/S), and price-to-cash flow (P/CF), to its own historical values helps ascertain whether its stock is fairly valued, overvalued, or undervalued, whereas comparing the company relative to its peers on these parameters gives a good sense of how reasonable its stock price is.
The Zacks Value Style Score (part of the Zacks Style Scores system), which pays close attention to both traditional and unconventional valuation metrics to grade stocks from A to F (an A is better than a B; a B is better than a C; and so on), is pretty helpful in identifying whether a stock is overvalued, rightly valued, or temporarily undervalued.
e.l.f. Beauty is graded D on this front, indicating that it is trading at a premium to its peers. Click here to see the values of some of the valuation metrics that have driven this grade.
Bottom LineThe facts discussed here and much other information on Zacks.com might help determine whether or not it's worthwhile paying attention to the market buzz about e.l.f. Beauty. However, its Zacks Rank #3 does suggest that it may perform in line with the broader market in the near term.
The proven Zacks Rank system focuses on earnings estimates and estimate revisions to find winning stocks. Nevertheless, we know that our readers all have their own perspectives, so we are always looking at the latest trends in value, growth, and momentum to find strong picks.
Of these, value investing is easily one of the most popular ways to find great stocks in any market environment. Value investors use a variety of methods, including tried-and-true valuation metrics, to find these stocks.
On top of the Zacks Rank, investors can also look at our innovative Style Scores system to find stocks with specific traits. For example, value investors will want to focus on the "Value" category. Stocks with high Zacks Ranks and "A" grades for Value will be some of the highest-quality value stocks on the market today.
One company to watch right now is Urban Outfitters (URBN - Free Report) . URBN is currently holding a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy) and a Value grade of A. The stock has a Forward P/E ratio of 13.05. This compares to its industry's average Forward P/E of 14.45. Over the past 52 weeks, URBN's Forward P/E has been as high as 15.49 and as low as 9.10, with a median of 12.80.
Another valuation metric that we should highlight is URBN's P/B ratio of 2.48. The P/B ratio pits a stock's market value against its book value, which is defined as total assets minus total liabilities. This stock's P/B looks solid versus its industry's average P/B of 6.16. Within the past 52 weeks, URBN's P/B has been as high as 2.97 and as low as 1.40, with a median of 2.14.
Finally, investors will want to recognize that URBN has a P/CF ratio of 10.93. This figure highlights a company's operating cash flow and can be used to find firms that are undervalued when considering their impressive cash outlook. This stock's P/CF looks attractive against its industry's average P/CF of 13.71. Within the past 12 months, URBN's P/CF has been as high as 12.80 and as low as 7.56, with a median of 10.42.
These are only a few of the key metrics included in Urban Outfitters's strong Value grade, but they help show that the stock is likely undervalued right now. When factoring in the strength of its earnings outlook, URBN looks like an impressive value stock at the moment.

12 Month EPS
Revenue Growth ForecastWhile earnings growth is arguably the most superior indicator of a company's financial health, nothing happens as such if a business isn't able to grow its revenues. After all, it's nearly impossible for a company to increase its earnings for an extended period without increasing its revenues. So, it's important to know a company's potential revenue growth.
For SoundHound AI, the consensus sales estimate for the current quarter of $52.49 million indicates a year-over-year change of +23%. For the current and next fiscal years, $233.16 million and $270.1 million estimates indicate +38% and +15.8% changes, respectively.
Last Reported Results and Surprise HistorySoundHound AI reported revenues of $44.19 million in the last reported quarter, representing a year-over-year change of +51.7%. EPS of -$0.06 for the same period compares with -$0.06 a year ago.
Compared to the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $42.71 million, the reported revenues represent a surprise of +3.48%. The EPS surprise was -20%.
Over the last four quarters, SoundHound AI surpassed consensus EPS estimates two times. The company topped consensus revenue estimates each time over this period.

When deciding whether to buy, sell, or hold a stock, investors often rely on analyst recommendations. Media reports about rating changes by these brokerage-firm-employed (or sell-side) analysts often influence a stock's price, but are they really important?
Before we discuss the reliability of brokerage recommendations and how to use them to your advantage, let's see what these Wall Street heavyweights think about SoundHound AI, Inc. (SOUN - Free Report) .
SoundHound AI currently has an average brokerage recommendation (ABR) of 1.75, on a scale of 1 to 5 (Strong Buy to Strong Sell), calculated based on the actual recommendations (Buy, Hold, Sell, etc.) made by eight brokerage firms. An ABR of 1.75 approximates between Strong Buy and Buy.
Of the eight recommendations that derive the current ABR, five are Strong Buy, representing 62.5% of all recommendations.

While the ABR calls for buying SoundHound AI, it may not be wise to make an investment decision solely based on this information. Several studies have shown limited to no success of brokerage recommendations in guiding investors to pick stocks with the best price increase potential.
Do you wonder why? As a result of the vested interest of brokerage firms in a stock they cover, their analysts tend to rate it with a strong positive bias. According to our research, brokerage firms assign five "Strong Buy" recommendations for every "Strong Sell" recommendation.
This means that the interests of these institutions are not always aligned with those of retail investors, giving little insight into the direction of a stock's future price movement. It would therefore be best to use this information to validate your own analysis or a tool that has proven to be highly effective at predicting stock price movements.
Zacks Rank, our proprietary stock rating tool with an impressive externally audited track record, categorizes stocks into five groups, ranging from Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy) to Zacks Rank #5 (Strong Sell), and is an effective indicator of a stock's price performance in the near future. Therefore, using the ABR to validate the Zacks Rank could be an efficient way of making a profitable investment decision.
Zacks Rank Should Not Be Confused With ABRIn spite of the fact that Zacks Rank and ABR both appear on a scale from 1 to 5, they are two completely different measures.
Broker recommendations are the sole basis for calculating the ABR, which is typically displayed in decimals (such as 1.28). The Zacks Rank, on the other hand, is a quantitative model designed to harness the power of earnings estimate revisions. It is displayed in whole numbers -- 1 to 5.
Analysts employed by brokerage firms have been and continue to be overly optimistic with their recommendations. Since the ratings issued by these analysts are more favorable than their research would support because of the vested interest of their employers, they mislead investors far more often than they guide.
In contrast, the Zacks Rank is driven by earnings estimate revisions. And near-term stock price movements are strongly correlated with trends in earnings estimate revisions, according to empirical research.
In addition, the different Zacks Rank grades are applied proportionately to all stocks for which brokerage analysts provide current-year earnings estimates. In other words, this tool always maintains a balance among its five ranks.
Another key difference between the ABR and Zacks Rank is freshness. The ABR is not necessarily up-to-date when you look at it. But, since brokerage analysts keep revising their earnings estimates to account for a company's changing business trends, and their actions get reflected in the Zacks Rank quickly enough, it is always timely in indicating future price movements.
Should You Invest in SOUN?In terms of earnings estimate revisions for SoundHound AI, the Zacks Consensus Estimate for the current year has remained unchanged over the past month at -$0.18.
Analysts' steady views regarding the company's earnings prospects, as indicated by an unchanged consensus estimate, could be a legitimate reason for the stock to perform in line with the broader market in the near term.
The size of the recent change in the consensus estimate, along with three other factors related to earnings estimates, has resulted in a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold) for SoundHound AI. You can see the complete list of today's Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy) stocks here >>>>
It may therefore be prudent to be a little cautious with the Buy-equivalent ABR for SoundHound AI.
On Holding (ONON - Free Report) is one of the stocks most watched by Zacks.com visitors lately. So, it might be a good idea to review some of the factors that might affect the near-term performance of the stock.
Over the past month, shares of this running-shoe and apparel company have returned +4%, compared to the Zacks S&P 500 composite's -0.6% change. During this period, the Zacks Retail - Apparel and Shoes industry, which On Holding falls in, has lost 2.6%. The key question now is: What could be the stock's future direction?
While media releases or rumors about a substantial change in a company's business prospects usually make its stock 'trending' and lead to an immediate price change, there are always some fundamental facts that eventually dominate the buy-and-hold decision-making.
Earnings Estimate RevisionsRather than focusing on anything else, we at Zacks prioritize evaluating the change in a company's earnings projection. This is because we believe the fair value for its stock is determined by the present value of its future stream of earnings.
Our analysis is essentially based on how sell-side analysts covering the stock are revising their earnings estimates to take the latest business trends into account.

Because of this, empirical studies indicate a strong correlation between trends in earnings estimate revisions and short-term stock price movements.
On Holding is expected to post earnings of $0.43 per share for the current quarter, representing a year-over-year change of +490.9%. Over the last 30 days, the Zacks Consensus Estimate remained unchanged.
For the current fiscal year, the consensus earnings estimate of $1.77 points to a change of +82.5% from the prior year. Over the last 30 days, this estimate has changed +1.8%.
For the next fiscal year, the consensus earnings estimate of $2.15 indicates a change of +21.6% from what On Holding is expected to report a year ago. Over the past month, the estimate has changed +0.9%.
With an impressive externally audited track record, our proprietary stock rating tool -- the Zacks Rank -- is a more conclusive indicator of a stock's near-term price performance, as it effectively harnesses the power of earnings estimate revisions.

Vancouver, British Columbia – July 21, 2026 - TheNewswire – Generation Uranium Inc. (TSXV:GEN, OTCQB:GENRF, FRA:W85) (the “Company” or “Generation”) is pleased to see Atha Energy’s success in exploration on the Angilak project located just south of the Company’s Yath Project as reported in their press release July 8, 2026. Atha is running 3 drill rigs on the Angiak Project with a reported budget of 20,000m of drilling in 2026.
Atha’s LAC50 NW relates to Generation’s Yath Project in two ways:
The discovery demonstrates the continued mineralized nature of the LAC50 trend with a 4km west jump out to the NW for a new uranium discovery. The associated geophysical conductor can be seen to cross into the Yath Project a further 3km to the North West.
The concurrent gravity high continues ~1km north to the Yath Project border where historical uranium mineralization has been observed and is currently being investigated by the Generation field geologists and prospectors.

While geophysical conductors and the margins of gravity highs do not explain all of the uranium exploration targets on the Yath project, they do focus targeting in about 50% of them in the central portion of the claims.
CEO Michael Collins comments, “Atha’s success at LAC50NW was expected by our geology team at Generation as we have been integrating regional uranium trends and occurrences within our own exploration model. While our 2026 exploration plan was already targeting the LAC 50 trend as it crosses onto Generation ground and the northern extension of the Gravity high, (which we also see as a greenstone belt margin), Atha’s successes validates theses targets and moves them up the priority list for our geologist who are currently in the field picking drill targets.”
Michael also noted, “Every discovery drill hole that Atha reports refines our exploration model and will improve our success rate as we move to get drills turning on the Yath Uranium Project.”
Generation’s Field program is currently underway on the Yath Project where are geologists are integrating historic exploration results derived from assessment reports, integrating ExpertGeophysics MMT conductors and identifying related structures in the field to constrain historic targets as well as defining new targets.

Uranium Outlook 2026
The uranium market in 2026 continues to strengthen, supported by a widening structural supply deficit and accelerating global demand. Spot prices surpassed US$100/lb early in the year as mine production struggles to keep pace with reactor requirements. Demand growth is being driven by the rapid expansion of AI‑powered data centers, alongside significant increases in nuclear generation capacity in China, India, and the United States. Long‑term contract prices have now moved above spot, reflecting a healthy and sustained trend as utilities secure supply in an increasingly competitive environment.
A comprehensive sector report2 released by Shaw and Partners in February 2026 forecasts the potential for a multi‑year uranium price spike toward US$200/lb. The report highlights tightening fuel contracting cycles, accelerating nuclear demand, and persistent supply shortfalls as the foundation for a powerful re‑rating across the uranium sector.
The report also underscores a growing disconnect between uranium supply and long‑term reactor demand. Global nuclear capacity currently consumes approximately 180 million pounds (Mlb) of U₃O₈ annually, while existing mine production delivers only about 150 Mlb. According to the World Nuclear Association’s reference scenario3, global nuclear capacity could expand significantly by 2040, pushing annual uranium consumption toward 390 Mlb.
Shaw and Partners’ modelling further indicates:
New mine supply requirements this decade could exceed 350 Mlb, once depletion of existing operations is included.
Structural supply deficits could surpass 200 Mlb per year in the coming decades unless new large‑scale uranium projects are brought into production.
Overall, the uranium market is expected to remain tight, with low inventories and rising demand driving utilities toward increasingly aggressive long‑term contracting strategies. This environment continues to strengthen the outlook for exploration‑stage companies positioned in proven and emerging uranium districts.

Uniswap’s [UNI] expansion on Robinhood Chain accelerated as liquidity providers continued allocating fresh capital. Rather than relying on isolated deposits, the protocol has attracted both fresh capital and a growing trading base.
Total Value Locked (TVL) remained below $10 million in late June before climbing rapidly past $60 million in mid-July. Momentum then strengthened further, lifting TVL above $80 million after another 30% weekly increase.
Source: Token Terminal Meanwhile, monthly active traders steadily expanded, eventually reaching 1 million, suggesting liquidity growth kept pace with user participation. This combination points to more than temporary capital rotation.
Instead, deeper liquidity appears to be reinforcing trading activity, which in turn attracts additional capital. If this balance persists, Uniswap’s expansion could indicate an increasingly self-sustaining trading ecosystem on Robinhood Chain rather than a temporary influx of speculative capital.
RWAs drive Uniswap’s growth That liquidity expansion is now revealing a broader shift in how capital is being deployed across Robinhood Chain.
Rather than concentrating around crypto-native assets alone, traders are increasingly directing liquidity toward tokenized equities. As a result, this has made the NVIDIA/USDG Pool the largest RWA market for Uniswap V4.
Despite holding $465,300 in TVL, the pool generated $3.5 million in daily trading volume, alongside $10,600 in fees and an 834% APR. Those figures suggest liquidity is circulating rapidly instead of remaining dormant, reflecting sustained trading demand rather than passive capital allocation.
Source: X More importantly, this changes what drives DEX growth. If tokenized equities continue attracting comparable activity, Uniswap’s expansion may increasingly depend on real-world asset adoption, reducing its reliance on speculative crypto cycles and creating a more diversified source of long-term liquidity.
Can UNI rally higher? Uniswap’s recent performance is now beginning to reflect on its market structure. After weeks of consolidating between $3.45 and $3.65, UNI broke higher and climbed to $3.702, gaining 1.9% on the day.
The altcoin was able to reach the previous high from mid-July, around $3.72. At this point, sellers began testing bullish conviction. Meanwhile, RSI at 63.86 continues to rise. This suggests that buying pressure remains firm without entering overbought territory.
Source: UNI/USDT on TradingView Moreover, trading volume was generally low during the breakout. However, the price did hold above $3.60 after the breakout occurred. This indicates that the buyers were being cautious against the former top of the previous trading range and establishing a new level of support.
This shift matters because successful retests often strengthen bullish structures. If demand persists above $3.60, UNI could build momentum for another attempt to clear $3.72 and extend its recovery.
Final Summary Uniswap is building sustainable growth through rising liquidity and user activity on Robinhood Chain. UNI could see stronger long-term demand as RWAs expand beyond speculative trading.
A Resilient Alternative to Centralized Cloud@Dfinity's Internet Computer ($ICP) is preparing to roll out a new class of infrastructure called cloud engines, designed to address growing physical and cyber threats against centralized data centers. According to the ICP CEO, cloud engines use a tamper-proof architecture that keeps hosted services running even when individual nodes or entire data centers are taken offline.
The timing is deliberate. Data centers have faced increasing exposure to geopolitical conflict and targeted cyberattacks, making the reliability of centralized cloud infrastructure a pressing concern for enterprises and governments alike. Over 90% of cloud compute is controlled by providers governed by foreign intelligence laws , a concentration that DFINITY argues creates systemic risk for anyone running mission-critical applications on traditional infrastructure.
Software hosted on the Internet Computer is tamperproof, immune to infrastructure hacks, always-on, and capable of auto-scaling , according to the project's official documentation. The cloud engines concept extends this principle by giving enterprises the ability to select specific node configurations, by region or compliance requirement, while retaining the network's core resilience guarantees.
Zero-Trust Architecture for the Autonomous Economy DFINITY Foundation founder Dominic Williams has described cloud engines as a major Internet Computer innovation that lets enterprises own and configure their own corner of the cloud network, while maintaining tamper-proof hosting guarantees. The model supports running ICP on Amazon, Google, or sovereign hardware, with the ability to migrate between them and scale horizontally by adding nodes without changing application code.
The push into enterprise cloud comes alongside a broader productization effort. Sovereign, private subnets for regulated enterprise and government AI workloads are part of ICP's 2026 roadmap. Real-world adoption is already visible: in early 2026, ICP launched the first national sovereign subnet in Switzerland at World Computer Day in Davos, with a dedicated Pakistan Subnet partnership announced shortly after.
DFINITY frames cloud engines as foundational infrastructure for what it calls the 2026 autonomous economy, an environment where downtime is not an acceptable outcome for applications that run without human intervention. The DFINITY Foundation positions the Internet Computer as a sovereign frontier cloud designed to run web-scale applications and AI workloads in a tamperproof, always-on environment.

NEAR Protocol Deploys NIST-Approved Post-Quantum SigningNEAR Protocol has activated quantum-safe signing on mainnet as part of network upgrade 2.13, making it one of the first Layer-1 blockchains to ship a NIST-approved post-quantum signature scheme in a live production environment. The upgrade adds quantum-safe signing through the NIST-approved FIPS-204 (ML-DSA) scheme alongside dynamic resharding, a scalability enhancement that enables the protocol to automatically scale as network demand grows.
The team chose FIPS-204 (ML-DSA, formerly known as CRYSTALS-Dilithium), a lattice-based digital signature algorithm formally standardized by NIST in August 2024 as part of the agency's first batch of post-quantum cryptography standards. The upgrade allows account holders to migrate to post-quantum cryptography through a single on-chain transaction without transferring assets or changing account addresses.
The urgency behind the move is hard to ignore. Google's Quantum AI team has published research on the risk to cryptocurrency directly, with an estimated $470 billion of Bitcoin at risk. A U.S. executive order issued in June 2026 also requires federal agencies to transition high-value systems to post-quantum cryptography by the end of the decade, with digital signature migration scheduled for completion by 2031.
Automatic Resharding Removes a Key BottleneckThe second major component of the 2.13 upgrade addresses scalability. NEAR's sharded architecture previously scaled horizontally by adding shards, but each addition required a full protocol upgrade involving weeks of validator coordination, a vote, and a staged rollout. Dynamic resharding now enables the network to automatically scale by splitting shards without validator votes or manual upgrades.
On blockchains like Bitcoin and Ethereum, addresses are derived from keypairs tied to breakable cryptography, so migrating to a new signing scheme means migrating the address itself. NEAR accounts are decoupled from cryptography: since mainnet launched in 2020, NEAR has used human-readable account IDs controlled through rotatable access keys, not bound to a single keypair. This architectural choice is what makes the migration comparatively straightforward for NEAR users.
NEAR is also actively working with hardware and software wallet builders, including Ledger, on bringing post-quantum support to the market.

PancakeSwap just crossed $1 billion in cumulative trading volume for tokenized assets on its decentralized exchange. To put that growth rate in perspective, the platform reported $100 million in tokenized asset volume during its mid-year recap on July 17. Four days later, that number was ten times larger.
The numbers behind the milestone PancakeSwap’s tokenized asset volume is impressive on its own, but it looks even more interesting when you zoom out. The platform has accumulated $4.2 trillion in total lifetime trading volume across all asset types, with a user base of 190 million.
The BNB Chain, where PancakeSwap does the bulk of its work, now hosts over 709 tokenized stocks and ETFs. The chain’s cumulative volume for tokenized stocks alone has surpassed $5 billion, making it the dominant blockchain for this particular flavor of on-chain trading.

Among the standout products, the tokenized Nasdaq-100 (QQQB) exceeded $100 million in 24-hour volume. PancakeSwap also facilitates trading in Binance’s bStocks, which include tokenized versions of household names like NVIDIA and Tesla.
Why tokenized assets are gaining traction Traditional stock markets operate roughly 6.5 hours per day, five days per week. Crypto markets never close. Tokenized assets bridge that gap, letting traders access equity exposure with the same 24/7 availability they expect from Bitcoin or Ethereum.
The 56 million CAKE tokens burned during the reporting period leading up to the July 21 announcement also suggest healthy protocol economics. Token burns reduce circulating supply, and when they’re funded by genuine trading activity rather than artificial mechanisms, they indicate sustainable demand.
Context and competitive landscape There’s an important distinction between institutional RWA tokenization and what PancakeSwap is doing. Institutional efforts tend to focus on bonds, treasuries, and private credit. PancakeSwap is bringing retail-friendly products like individual stocks and popular ETFs to a decentralized trading environment.
The BNB Chain’s dominance in this space, with over 709 tokenized products and $5 billion in cumulative stock volume, gives PancakeSwap a structural advantage.
What this means for investors Regulatory risk remains the elephant in the room. Tokenized stocks exist in a gray area in many jurisdictions. Whether they’re classified as securities, derivatives, or something else entirely varies by country, and enforcement actions could reshape this market overnight.
For CAKE holders specifically, the combination of growing volume and ongoing token burns creates a potentially favorable supply-demand dynamic. PancakeSwap has found a product-market fit that extends beyond memecoins and DeFi-native tokens, and that diversification of revenue streams is exactly what a mature DEX needs to stay relevant in an increasingly competitive landscape.

The swing top at $4202.71 is inside that zone. And taking it out will break the pattern of consecutive lower lows. After this, the 50-day moving average at $4263.78 comes into focus and if tested, we may finally get to see how much conviction the bullish gold traders have.
What to Watch Gold is holding Tuesday’s bid despite oil rallying and yields pressing higher because the ceasefire proposal is keeping the diplomatic track alive. That is fragile. A tanker was already hit in the Strait of Hormuz and both sides are still striking. If the talks collapse and crude extends, the rate pressure returns and gold gives this back. If diplomacy holds and oil starts pulling back, September hike odds continue to drop and gold can keep building on the base.
The price action is developing a secondary higher bottom above long-term support. Gold is still inside a resistance zone and needs to clear the upper end with volume to open the path toward the 50-day average. That level is where the market finds out whether this recovery has real conviction or whether it is just a pause in the selling.

21 July 2026 | 09:38 Solana ended the second quarter with two very different stories. Trading in tokenized assets on the network more than doubled to a record $5.8 billion in quarterly volume, but overall decentralized exchange activity, lending and revenue generated from network use all declined.
Key Takeaways Tokenized-asset trading volume on Solana reached $5.8 billion in Q2, rising 114% and led by tokenized equities. Solana retained 32% of spot DEX volume despite a sharp decline in overall trading. Network revenue fell 43%, showing that trading growth did not translate directly into greater fee demand. SOL investment products attracted capital while staking income remained heavily dependent on token issuance. The contrast is not necessarily contradictory. Tokenized-asset volume measures how much tokenized financial exposure changed hands on Solana’s exchanges, while total DEX volume, lending and Real Economic Value show how much of the network’s activity converted into fees and borrowing demand.
Together, the figures suggest that Solana’s capital-markets ecosystem expanded faster than the revenue the network earns from it.
Tokenized Equities Became Solana’s Main Growth Story Tokenized-asset trading volume increased by 114% quarter over quarter and set a record for a sixth consecutive quarter, according to Blockworks Advisory’s Q2 2026 Solana Tokenholder Report. The report was commissioned by the Solana Foundation, which may provide input on its content, although Blockworks Advisory states that it retains editorial control. That funding relationship is worth keeping in mind when weighing the report’s framing, even where the underlying data is verifiable.
Solana tokenized asset volume by category. The $5.8 billion figure describes trading volume, not the market value of assets held on Solana and not revenue earned by the network. It measures how much tokenized exposure was bought and sold through Solana’s decentralized exchanges during the quarter.
Tokenized equities dominated that activity with $4.8 billion, or 84% of the total, roughly four times their Q1 volume. The report estimates that Solana now processes approximately 97% of tokenized-equity trading across all blockchains. June alone contributed $3.3 billion of equity volume, a surge catalyzed by the tokenized listing of SpaceX following its June 12 public offering. Private credit added $803 million, with smaller contributions from commodities and collectibles.
The market continued expanding after the quarter ended. On July 10, 2026, tokenized exposure to SK Hynix went live on Solana through Backpack Securities, xStocks and Ondo Finance.
Those products provide similar economic exposure through different legal, custody and redemption structures. That distinction matters because tokenized assets are not a single standardized product category. As our guide to RWA tokenization platforms explains in detail, investors still need to examine who issued each token, what backs it, whether it can be redeemed and which users are eligible to hold it.
Solana Kept Its DEX Lead as Trading Slowed Solana decentralized exchanges processed $160.8 billion in spot volume during Q2. That was down 44% from $288.5 billion in the previous quarter, but the network still handled approximately 32% of spot DEX volume across the blockchains measured.
Spot DEX volume share by blockchain. Ethereum followed with 25%, while Base and BNB Chain accounted for 16% and 12%, respectively. Q2 was the eighth consecutive quarter in which Solana controlled more than 30% of the measured spot market.
This combination requires context. Solana did not lose its relative position against competing networks, but the overall market became less active. Maintaining market share in a contracting market is different from generating absolute growth. The monthly path was more constructive than the quarterly total: volume fell from $52.3 billion in April to $48.0 billion in May, then rebounded 26% to $60.5 billion in June as tokenized-asset activity accelerated.
Application revenue also fell 31% to $228.4 million. Perpetual futures presented a different picture, with notional volume increasing 60% quarter over quarter to $183 billion, but that recovery did not offset weaker activity across the rest of the ecosystem.
The composition of that revenue also complicates the diversification story. Pumpfun, the memecoin launchpad, remained the ecosystem’s largest business with $90.1 million, or 39% of all application revenue, and accounted for 97% of launchpad revenue. Tokenized equities may be the growth story, but the single biggest earner on Solana is still the speculative category the network is described as moving beyond. That concentration reached a new high in Q2 precisely because the rest of the market shrank faster.
Network Revenue Fell Faster Than Market Share Solana’s Real Economic Value, or REV, totaled $51 million in Q2, down 43% from the previous quarter. REV measures transaction fees and out-of-protocol tips paid by users while excluding inflationary token issuance.
Solana quarterly network revenue breakdown. Monthly REV declined from $18.6 million in April to $18.1 million in May and $14.3 million in June. Priority fees fell 45% to $30.8 million, while Jito tips dropped 50% to $9.9 million. Base and vote fees contributed another $10.3 million.
The decline also cost Solana relative position among blockchains. The report ranks Solana fourth in quarterly network revenue with a 12% share, behind Hyperliquid at 33% with $141.4 million, Tron at 21% and Ethereum at 15%, down from Solana’s 18% share in Q1. Hyperliquid’s lead rests on the trading-fee engine we examined in our analysis of the platform’s $1.2 billion in cumulative fees. The comparison is uncomfortable for Solana’s economics: a network processing billions of transactions earned roughly a third of what a single derivatives-focused chain collected in the same quarter.
Solana still processed 9.8 billion non-vote transactions during the quarter, with a median transaction fee near $0.0004. However, 27% of those transactions reverted, a share the report attributes to automated arbitrage strategies and describes as a feature rather than a bug. That characterization is the report’s reading, not a settled fact. Daily active addresses also fell from 2.4 million in Q1 to 2.0 million, meaning the network processed nearly as many transactions from a noticeably smaller user base. The network remained heavily used, but high transaction counts did not automatically produce high revenue because individual transactions remained extremely inexpensive.
Lending Has Not Followed Tokenization Higher Deposits across Kamino and Jup Lend ended the quarter near $4.1 billion, while outstanding loans stood at approximately $1.6 billion. Deposits declined 8.3%, and loans fell 7.9%.
The pullback was more pronounced in real-world asset lending. Deposits connected to RWA markets dropped from $1.23 billion in Q1 to $640 million in Q2, a decline of 48%.
This exposes an important gap in the tokenization narrative. Solana can host record trading in stocks, credit products and funds without those assets immediately becoming widely used as collateral or generating substantial borrowing demand.
A stronger confirmation of adoption would involve tokenized-asset growth occurring alongside expanding collateral use, higher borrowing demand and deeper secondary-market liquidity. Q2 delivered the first part, but not the others.
Staker Income Still Came Mostly From Inflation SOL’s nominal staking yield ended the quarter near 5.5%, down from 5.8% at the end of Q1. With inflation around 3.8%, the estimated real staking yield was approximately 1.7%.
Stakers earned $487 million during Q2, down 23% from $630 million in the previous quarter. More than 98% of that revenue came from token issuance, while Jito tips contributed roughly $8.2 million.
This means staking rewards continued to depend primarily on newly issued SOL rather than fees generated by network activity. For long-term token economics, the balance between issuance, fee income and token burning is more informative than the headline staking percentage alone.
The Proposed Burn Increase Is Not Yet Active The report estimated that SIMD-553 could burn between 7,500 and 9,000 SOL per day under current activity assumptions, roughly ten times the existing rate and equivalent to around 12% to 15% of daily issuance.
That is a modeled scenario, not the current burn rate or a guaranteed outcome. SIMD-553 remains a proposal and would need to pass the necessary governance and implementation stages before changing SOL’s supply dynamics.
Under Solana’s current fee structure, 50% of the base transaction fee is burned. The remaining half and all priority fees are paid to the validator producing the block.
A larger burn could strengthen the connection between network activity and SOL demand, but it would not automatically make the token deflationary. Even the report’s estimated burn remains below total daily issuance.
Investment Products Attracted Capital Through the Downturn SOL spot investment products recorded approximately $120 million in net inflows during Q2, extending positive flows for a third consecutive quarter. Over the same period, Blockworks data showed $3.7 billion of outflows from Bitcoin products and $500 million from Ethereum products.
Solana quarterly ETP flows. The comparison should be treated carefully because the products differ substantially in size, age and investor base. Still, the direction of flows suggests that some investors continued building regulated Solana exposure despite weaker onchain revenue and lower market activity.
Official SEC filings confirm the expansion of that investment infrastructure. The Grayscale Solana Staking ETF trades on NYSE Arca under GSOL, while the 21Shares Solana ETF trades on Cboe BZX under TSOL. The pipeline is still growing: Morgan Stanley filed a third round of SEC amendments on July 14 for spot Ethereum and Solana ETFs expected to trade under MSSE and MSOL. Traditional financial institutions are building similar infrastructure on other networks as well, as we covered in out report on JPMorgan’s tokenized money market fund.
Positive fund flows do not guarantee higher SOL prices or stronger network revenue. They show demand for regulated exposure, which is separate from activity taking place inside Solana applications.
What Solana’s Q2 Results Actually Show Q2 was not simply strong or weak. Solana gained ground as infrastructure for trading tokenized assets and retained its lead in decentralized spot trading, but the network generated less revenue and experienced weaker lending demand.
The constructive interpretation is that Solana is broadening beyond the speculative activity that powered its earlier revenue peaks. The more cautious interpretation is that tokenized-asset growth has not yet translated into enough borrowing, trading intensity or fee generation to strengthen the network’s underlying economics, that the user base contracted during the quarter, and that the largest single source of application revenue remains a memecoin launchpad.
The next confirmation would come from several metrics improving together: continued tokenized-asset growth, recovering REV, greater use of tokenized securities as collateral, sustained investment-product inflows and a larger share of staking rewards funded by actual fees instead of issuance.
Until then, Solana’s institutional expansion is real, but the economic value captured by the network remains the part that still needs to catch up.

Key Takeaways SOL currently hovers near $76, testing a crucial support zone that may determine its upcoming trajectory Approximately $26 million worth of cross-chain assets entered the Solana network during the last week Maintaining the $74–$75 support zone remains critical for bulls to sustain upward momentum Successfully breaking through $82–$85 resistance could pave the way toward $94, followed by $125 A breach of current support levels may send SOL tumbling into the $64–$70 territory At press time, Solana (SOL) trades at $76.17, commanding a market capitalization of $44.4 billion alongside a 24-hour trading volume of $1.8 million.
Solana (SOL) Price The digital asset has been consolidating around a critical support threshold, with its future direction largely contingent upon whether bulls can successfully defend this strategic level.
Market analyst Daan Crypto Trades highlighted that SOL is nearing a pivotal high-timeframe technical juncture. According to his assessment, buyers must protect the existing level and establish a higher low to preserve the bullish framework.
$SOL Key high timeframe region. Either the bulls push through and set a higher low here to take a stab at the range high in the $90s.
Or this rejects here and driblles back down to that mid $60s area. pic.twitter.com/Jn8pu28cjG
— Daan Crypto Trades (@DaanCrypto) July 20, 2026
Should buyers succeed in defending this position, the immediate resistance target emerges around $97, representing the upper limit of the prevailing trading corridor.
Conversely, should this support crumble, market watchers anticipate SOL could retreat to the mid-$60s region, where prior buying interest materialized. More precisely, the $64.69 threshold has been identified as a significant support floor beneath current valuation.
Wave Pattern Analysis Suggests $82–$94 Trajectory Examining the hourly timeframe reveals SOL testing the 38.2% Fibonacci retracement level around $74. Under an optimistic interpretation, this represents the conclusion of a corrective retracement before initiating another upward movement.
Initial resistance materializes between $78.40 and $82.30. Clearing this barrier decisively would establish objectives in the $89–$94 range.
Should price action fall beneath $74, the correction might extend toward $71.17, potentially reaching $68.42.
Cross-Chain Capital Injection Totals $26M According to metrics from Solana Floor, over $26 million in digital assets have been bridged onto the Solana blockchain throughout the preceding seven-day period.
Such capital migration indicates revitalized attention toward the platform. Solana’s rapid settlement times, minimal transaction costs, and thriving decentralized finance infrastructure continue drawing liquidity from competing blockchains.
Cryptocurrency analyst Crypto Patel expressed his perspective on X, cautioning that failure to maintain the present ascending channel could trigger a descent toward the $70–$50 accumulation territory. He emphasized maintaining long-term conviction in SOL eventually reaching $500, then $1,000, characterizing the $70–$50 band as a compelling accumulation opportunity for strategic investors.
$SOL Is Sitting At A Critical HTF Decision Point.
Lose This Rising Channel And A Move Toward The $70–$50 Accumulation Zone Becomes Increasingly Likely. Bulls Must Defend.
Long Term, I'm Highly Confident $SOL Can Reach $500, Then $1,000. That's Why $70–$50 Looks Like A… pic.twitter.com/UbSpmy7dwD
— Crypto Patel (@CryptoPatel) July 20, 2026
Analyzing the weekly timeframe, Solana continues defending a support region around $75 that previously catalyzed an explosive advance toward $140. The weekly Relative Strength Index demonstrates ascending lows near support boundaries, suggesting bearish pressure may be diminishing.
The 20-week exponential moving average positioned near $85 represents the initial obstacle, trailed by a resistance concentration spanning $110–$125. Surpassing $125 would place the annual opening price near $143 within reach.
The $26 million weekly cross-chain capital injection stands as the latest metric validating sustained ecosystem engagement across the Solana network.
Ondo Perps Launches Tokenized Stock Collateralization Feature
According to official announcements, Ondo Perps has launched a tokenized stock collateral feature, allowing all users to use Ondo Finance’s tokenized stocks as valid collateral assets for perpetual contract trading. The first supported assets include tokenized versions of the S&P 500 ETF (SPYon) and Nasdaq 100 ETF (QQQon). Ondo noted that its perpetual contract platform has processed over $3.8 billion in trading volume. As traders’ demand grows for on-platform hedging, deep liquidity, tight spreads, low slippage, exchange speeds comparable to centralized exchanges (CEXs), and 24/7 trading, the on-chain stock derivatives market is expanding rapidly. The tokenized stock collateral mechanism allows traders to gain exposure to other markets without locking funds in stablecoins or selling existing assets, thereby improving capital efficiency. This feature is part of Ondo’s "Productive Capital" strategy, designed to gradually align the liquidity and capital efficiency of tokenized stocks and stock perpetual contracts with those of traditional derivatives markets. The company added that the current trading and margin infrastructure built on tokenized assets is just the beginning of a broader on-chain prime brokerage ecosystem, with plans to launch additional markets, liquidity products, and innovative features in the future.

From Seattle Streets to Solana Charts$JIMOTHY, the Solana-based memecoin inspired by a viral Seattle raccoon, surged another 200% in the 24 hours to July 21, extending a rally that has gripped crypto traders across the week. Trading volume topped $36 million as interest in the token showed little sign of cooling.
The real-world catalyst is Jimothy himself: a raccoon with a shorter spine than average, dubbed "Jimothy" by the internet, who first appeared in videos filmed in Seattle's Ballard neighbourhood. A video of him roaming the streets on July 14 went viral, and the internet moved fast. KUOW reported that videos related to Jimothy drew more than 10 million views on social media.
Marcie Logsdon, an associate professor at Washington State University's Veterinary Teaching Hospital, told the Seattle Times that Jimothy's shortened neck was likely the result of a congenital spine deformity. Despite his unusual shape, experts say the animal appears to be thriving.
Anonymous developers launched JIMOTHY on Pumpfun hours after the raccoon went viral. About 1 billion Jimothy tokens are in circulation and trade mainly on Solana-based decentralised exchanges, though no official connection has been confirmed between the real raccoon and the entity behind the token.
Institutions and Internet Culture CollideThe frenzy has spilled well beyond crypto circles. The Washington State Department of Licensing joined the moment, joking on X that the personalised plate "JIMOTHY" was already unavailable, as was "RACCOON." Jimothy has become an unofficial mascot for Seattle, with the Seattle Mariners briefly changing their social media profile picture to a photo of the raccoon wearing the team's hat. Seattle City Councilmember Alexis Mercedes Rinck even announced plans to present a proclamation in the raccoon's honour on July 26, to commemorate "Jimothy Summer."
The token's trajectory has been steep from the start. The Solana-based meme coin surged 52x in 24 hours on July 18, briefly reaching a $22 million market cap before retreating to $20.14 million, with $28.3 million in trading volume. The subsequent 200% move on July 21 extended those gains further, with total volume now surpassing $36 million.
Financial experts warn the memecoin's rally may not survive the news cycle. As with most viral meme coins, momentum is closely tied to social media attention, and traders are watching for any signs the fervor around Jimothy is beginning to fade.

JTX, the trading platform designed by the architects of Solana’s execution infrastructure, is now live, bringing a professional-standard trading experience to the onchain economy.
The launch comes as Solana solidifies its position as crypto’s leading venue for high-performance spot trading, dominating DEX volumes and outperforming CEX execution to give traders the best possible fills.
Dedicating 80% of protocol revenue to $JTO value accrual, JTX could represent one of the biggest catalysts for the growth of Jito’s native token.
Over 100,000 Waitlisted Users Gain Full Access to JTX After many weeks of eager anticipation, Jito has opened the floodgates to JTX, giving Solana’s onchain traders access to the network’s first institutional-standard professional trading venue.
Initially supporting the full breadth of Solana’s spot markets, including its flourishing RWA sector, JTX is expected to enable support for perpetual futures trading and prediction markets in the near future.
"Over the past four years, Jito has powered the Solana ecosystem, building the execution infrastructure that the network's trading activity runs on. JTX takes that same infrastructure and puts it directly in the hands of traders for the first time. It combines self-custody with execution tools that have typically only been available through more advanced trading platforms. Users hold their own keys, settlement happens onchain, and there are no custody tradeoffs,” - Lucas Bruder, Jito Labs Co-Founder and CEO
From launch, JTX offers traders a comprehensive suite of professional order types, from basics like resting limit orders to more sophisticated tools like TWAPs and conditional orders. Meanwhile, exclusive features like JTX Smart Fills break large orders into a burst of smaller orders to mitigate price impact and improve execution.
In parallel, JTX runs simulated execution comparisons against the industry’s leading centralized exchanges, informing traders of how much they save on each trade to Solana’s innate outperformance.
The Trading Venue Solana Deserves Solana has emerged as crypto’s most performant network for global-scale trading. Beyond dominating all blockchains in spot DEX volume since Q4 2024, recent improvements to Solana’s onchain market structure, like Jito’s BAM Maker Plugin, have elevated trade execution on the network to unprecedented levels.
According to a recent Blockworks report, traders consistently get better fills trading on Solana than on exchanges like Binance. Research from Jump Crypto has reinforced this thesis, claiming that Solana’s onchain execution outperforms Binance in 99.3% or retail-sized swaps.
With demand for 24/7 RWA and tokenized asset trading in DeFi exploding in 2026, Solana has successfully captured the vast majority of spot flows.
Boasting one of crypto’s most vibrant and diverse RWA economies, Solana recorded $5.8B in quarterly tokenized asset volume. Onchain data indicates that over 300,000 wallets on Solana hold RWAs, highlighting strong demand among market participants.
But despite Solana’s traders embracing traditional asset classes like tokenized stocks and commodities, the network itself has been lacking an institutional-grade trading venue. JTX promises to fill that void, giving professional traders the tools they need to effectively navigate Solana’s market layer.
"Demand for tokenized assets and a professionalized interface on Solana has grown considerably, driven by deeper liquidity and a maturing set of onchain products. JTX gives traders a platform built specifically for that environment, offering execution quality that matches what they expect on centralized exchanges, without giving up self-custody." - Kevin Beardsley, JTX Head of Product
80% of JTX Revenue to $JTO Following the approval of an upcoming governance proposal, JIP-38, Jito DAO is expected to route 80% of all JTX revenue directly to $JTO value accrual, with the remaining 20% being reinvested into ongoing protocol development.
If passed, JIP-38 will introduce programmatic $JTO buybacks and burns for at least one year, subject to re-appraisal in Q4 2027.
Having designed the architecture of the network’s best-in-class market layer and powering the bulk of Solana’s 250M+ daily transactions, JTX joins Jito’s growing suite as the Solana infrastructure giant’s flagship consumer product.
Alongside network staples like the Jito Block Engine, $jitoSOL, and BAM, JTX represents Jito’s full-stack commitment to making Solana the world’s leading decentralized trading environment, capable of competing with centralized exchanges and setting a new standard for Internet Capital Markets

The Japanese yen's exchange rate against the US dollar has hit its lowest level since 1986.
According to Bitget market data, the Japanese yen weakened against the U.S. dollar, hitting 162.89, marking its lowest level since 1986.
Intel stock just got the blockchain treatment. Backpack Securities has launched a tokenized version of $INTC on Solana through its Sunrise tokenization protocol, making the chipmaker’s equity tradable around the clock on decentralized exchanges.
The move adds Intel to a growing roster of traditional stocks that now live natively on Solana, a list that already includes SpaceX ($SPCX), Micron ($MU), and Robinhood ($HOODx).
What the tokenized Intel offering actually looks like Each tokenized INTC token represents a 1:1 claim on an underlying Intel share. Those shares are held in custody and the tokens are structured to be eligible for corporate actions under New York’s UCC Article 8. If Intel pays a dividend or does a stock split, token holders aren’t left out in the cold.
The tokens trade on Raydium, Solana’s largest decentralized exchange. Early trading data shows a total supply of approximately 6,151 tokenized INTC tokens, with the underlying Intel shares priced around $103 to $104 per share.

Daily trading volume for the tokenized INTC sits at roughly $14.6K, with liquidity of about $199K.
Backpack’s bigger play in tokenized equities Backpack Securities, founded by former FTX employees, has been building toward this moment since launching the Sunrise protocol in June 2026. The platform lets users exchange regulated securities for native Solana tokens, bridging traditional brokerage accounts and DeFi.
Total tokenized securities volume on Backpack has reached approximately $1.5B monthly. Daily trading highs for platform-wide tokenized equities exceeded $187M in mid-June.
The SpaceX token has been a particular standout. SpaceX doesn’t trade on public markets, so tokenization gives retail investors access to something they couldn’t buy before. Intel, by contrast, is available on every brokerage app. The value proposition is different: it’s about composability and 24/7 access rather than exclusivity.
Why this matters for the RWA tokenization market Backpack has structured these tokens under established securities frameworks, giving them a different legal footing than the synthetic stock tokens that Binance and FTX experimented with in 2021 before regulators shut them down. The UCC Article 8 compliance is specifically designed to ensure token holders have the same legal protections as traditional shareholders.
The $1.5B monthly volume across Backpack’s tokenized equities platform suggests genuine market demand. That volume figure puts the platform in the conversation with some mid-tier centralized exchanges.
Smart contract risk and platform risk layer on top of normal equity market risk. A $199K liquidity pool for Intel is fine for retail experimentation, but it’s a rounding error for any fund.

Key HighlightsJTX Delivers Professional Trading Infrastructure to Solana EcosystemJTX Extends Solana Trading Capabilities With Diverse Asset IntegrationJTX Reinforces Solana’s Leadership in Onchain Financial Markets JTX debuts on Solana today, bringing professional trading capabilities and self-custodial features
Jito unveils JTX platform to provide institutional-grade DeFi trading infrastructure for Solana
Platform enables trading of tokenized assets, SOL, memecoins, and various Solana-based markets
JTX introduces sophisticated order execution capabilities to Solana’s expanding DeFi landscape
Jito enhances Solana trading infrastructure with JTX launch and innovative fee distribution mechanism
Jito has unveiled JTX, a self-custodial exchange platform developed on Solana’s blockchain infrastructure to enable sophisticated onchain trading activities. The new platform delivers professional-grade order management tools while maintaining user control over assets through self-custodial architecture. JTX facilitates spot market trading for various Solana-based assets, real-world tokenized products, and additional digital marketplaces.
JTX Delivers Professional Trading Infrastructure to Solana Ecosystem Jito unveiled JTX as an exchange platform connecting market participants with the execution infrastructure that drives Solana network activity. The system provides limit order functionality, automated trade execution, and conditional trading capabilities for market participants. JTX enables direct access to onchain settlement mechanisms without dependence on centralized custodial intermediaries.
The platform launch responds to increasing market demand for sophisticated trading capabilities across decentralized financial markets. Solana has experienced growing activity from tokenized products, stablecoins, and decentralized protocol deployments. Nevertheless, numerous trading interfaces have failed to replicate the functionality found on centralized exchange platforms.
JTX facilitates trading of Solana-native assets, encompassing SOL, cbBTC, HYPE, memecoin tokens, and tokenized equity instruments. The system additionally supports exchange-traded fund products and other real-world assets integrated through blockchain infrastructure. JTX roadmap includes plans for perpetual futures markets, prediction market support, and mobile application access.
JTX Extends Solana Trading Capabilities With Diverse Asset Integration Solana registered robust decentralized exchange performance throughout the first half of 2026. The blockchain network secured substantial market share of worldwide spot DEX trading volume and executed considerable monthly transaction activity. Accordingly, JTX launches amid heightened demand for onchain trading solutions.
JTX leverages Jito’s established infrastructure to enhance trade execution throughout the Solana network. The platform builds upon Jito’s Block Engine technology, JitoSOL liquid staking, BAM infrastructure, and JTO governance token framework. JTX extends the protocol’s emphasis on efficient blockchain transaction processing.
The exchange implements a fee structure that channels revenue to the Jito DAO treasury. JTX allocates 80% of collected fees toward DAO-managed JTO token buybacks and burning operations. The remaining 20% compensates referral partners based on trading volume generated through their distribution channels.
JTX Reinforces Solana’s Leadership in Onchain Financial Markets Tokenized real-world asset integration on Solana has demonstrated consistent expansion as financial instruments migrate onchain. The blockchain network achieved billions in tokenized asset value by early July 2026. Tokenized equity trading activity registered substantial growth throughout the second quarter period.
JTX provides market participants with access to professional trading functionality while preserving blockchain-based asset ownership. The platform merges advanced execution features with self-custody principles for Solana ecosystem users. JTX targets enhanced trading experiences for participants pursuing decentralized market alternatives.
The platform debut establishes JTX as an additional trading infrastructure layer within the Solana ecosystem. It integrates Jito’s technological foundation with tools engineered for active digital asset marketplaces. Therefore, JTX bolsters Solana’s expanding influence in decentralized finance and tokenized asset exchange markets.

Real Madrid is reportedly reconsidering a move for Manchester City midfielder Rodri Hernández following his standout performances at the 2026 FIFA World Cup. The Spanish giants had previously resisted pursuing the midfielder despite his publicly expressed interest in joining the club, but fresh strategic thinking under president Florentino Pérez appears to have shifted the calculus.
The transfer landscape and why crypto cares Rodri’s contract with Manchester City runs until 2027, which means any transfer would require a significant fee or a complicated negotiation window. He has reportedly declined renewal discussions with City, choosing instead to focus entirely on the World Cup, where he has been discussed as a potential Player of the Tournament.
Football transfers have become deeply intertwined with the digital asset ecosystem over the past several years. Fan tokens, issued on platforms like Socios and powered by the Chiliz blockchain, give holders voting rights on minor club decisions and serve as speculative instruments that react violently to transfer news.

Real Madrid does not currently have an official fan token partnership in the way that FC Barcelona, Paris Saint-Germain, and other major clubs do.
Pérez’s uncertain stance and what it signals Florentino Pérez’s position on the Rodri signing reportedly remains uncertain as of mid-July 2026.
Previous speculation linking Rodri to Real Madrid surfaced during the June 2026 presidential elections at the club. The fact that the conversation has persisted beyond the election cycle suggests something more substantive than political posturing.
Rodri’s decision to postpone any contract discussions until after the World Cup is a classic leverage play. A Player of the Tournament performance dramatically increases his market value, giving him maximum negotiating power whether he stays at City or pushes for a move.
What this means for investors Fan tokens linked to major clubs have historically shown price movements correlated with transfer announcements. When clubs sign major players, their associated tokens tend to spike as engagement and speculative interest surge. The reverse happens when star players depart.
The Chiliz ecosystem, which underpins most major fan tokens, would likely see increased trading volume if Real Madrid were to formalize any blockchain partnership ahead of or alongside a marquee signing. The CHZ token itself has historically reacted to major club partnership announcements.
Fan tokens remain highly speculative instruments with thin liquidity compared to major cryptocurrencies. Price spikes around transfer news tend to be sharp and short-lived, meaning timing matters enormously. Buying a fan token after a signing is announced is usually too late.

Helium and GEODNET, two prominent DePIN (Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Networks) protocols on Solana, continue to rank among the most active networks, generating significant fees despite a general slowdown in the sector. According to data from @SolanaFloor, these protocols maintain high usage due to their roles in decentralized wireless and high-precision GPS services. The sustained fee generation from these networks suggests ongoing demand for their services, even as the broader DePIN market experiences a contraction in reward incentives. The resilience of Helium and GEODNET underscores Solana’s leading competitive position in the DePIN space, with the network’s efficient throughput supporting continued high transaction volumes.
Advertisement
Key Takeaways Helium and GEODNET continue to generate high fees, suggesting strong on-chain demand for their services. The broader DePIN market is experiencing a cooldown, yet these networks remain top users by transaction volume. Solana’s efficient throughput and low base fees contribute to the sustained activity of DePIN protocols like Helium and GEODNET. What to Watch Market participants are likely monitoring Solana’s performance in light of Helium and GEODNET’s activity, which may influence perceptions of Solana’s value. Key developments to watch include the potential for further adoption of Solana-based DePIN services and any changes in market conditions that could affect Solana’s price trajectory. Continued resilience in high-fee generation by Helium and GEODNET could appear supportive of scenarios where Solana’s price increases.

Shiba Inu (SHIB) extends gains, trading above $0.0000042 on Tuesday after breaking above the descending trendline the previous day. Strengthening on-chain data and improving derivatives metrics support further gains for the meme coin.
Exchange outflows signal declining selling pressureCryptoQuant’s exchange netflow chart below shows five consecutive days of net outflows (red bar) since July 17. This indicates that traders are withdrawing SHIB from exchanges to their wallets, signaling reduced selling pressure, supporting a bullish outlook.

SHIB funding rates chart. Source: CoinglassShiba Inu Price Forecast: Breaks above the descending trendlineShiba Inu price extends its gains, trading above $0.0000042 on Tuesday after breaking out of the descending trendline (drawn by connecting multiple highs since mid-May) the previous day.
If SHIB continues its recovery, it could extend the rally toward the next daily resistance at $0.0000045. A close above this could extend gains toward the 50-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) at $0.0000045.
The Relative Strength Index (RSI) on the daily chart reads 45, trending toward the neutral 50 level and indicating fading bearish momentum. The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) indicator showed a bullish crossover, with rising green histogram bars, further supporting the positive outlook.
SHIB/USDT daily chartHowever, if SHIB continues its correction, it could extend the decline toward the yearly low at $0.0000040.
Several catalysts, including Shibarium and burns, that were once expected to drive Shiba Inu higher have failed to generate meaningful price momentum.
Despite years of ecosystem development and community initiatives, Shiba Inu continues to trade near a multi-year low of around $0.0000042.
Shiba Inu On-Chain Activity Wanes Meanwhile, on-chain metrics paint a similarly weak picture. Both SHIB’s burn rate and blockchain activity have dropped sharply, providing little support for a sustained price recovery.
Low Shibarium Activity Shiba Inu’s Layer-2 blockchain, Shibarium, launched in August 2023 to give the ecosystem greater utility and reduce reliance on speculation. However, network activity has slowed considerably in recent months.
According to the latest data from Shibariumscan, Shibarium processed only 796 transactions over the past 24 hours, while total transactions over the past seven days remain below 15,000. These figures mark a dramatic decline from the network’s early days, when it regularly handled millions of daily transactions.
The slowdown stands in stark contrast to Shibarium’s lifetime statistics, which include approximately 1.56 billion cumulative transactions and nearly 269.9 million wallet addresses.
Shibarium Activity SHIB Burn Rate Continues to Lose Momentum Shiba Inu’s token burn mechanism has also lost much of its impact.
Over the past day, the community burned just 21.79 million SHIB, while the seven-day total reached 61.48 million tokens. Although these burns still amount to tens of millions of tokens, they remain insignificant compared to SHIB’s enormous circulating supply of 589.15 trillion tokens.
The current burn activity also represents a steep decline from 2024 and 2025, when the community routinely removed billions of SHIB from circulation each day.
Moreover, recent on-chain analysis has raised questions about Shiba Inu’s reported holder growth. An analyst recently claimed that contract-generated addresses artificially inflated the token’s holder count earlier this month. According to the report, WoofSwap allegedly used an automated contract that created more than 70,000 additional wallet addresses during the first few days of July, making the growth appear stronger than it actually was.
Ecosystem Updates Fail to Inspire Investors At the same time, SHIB investors have received few meaningful ecosystem developments capable of reversing the token’s downward trend.
Even Rakuten’s announcement regarding the development of a physical SHIB product in Japan failed to generate positive market momentum. Furthermore, leading ecosystem figures, including Lucie and Shytoshi Kusama, have remained silent on social media, leaving the community without significant updates or visible leadership.
Meme Sector Recovery Could Be Shiba Inu’s Only Hope Rather than reflecting project-specific issues alone, Shiba Inu’s prolonged weakness appears closely tied to the broader meme coin market. The GMCI Meme Index, which tracks the performance of major meme cryptocurrencies, dropped from a peak near 160 in January 2026 to 66 this week.
The index has since recovered only slightly to around 67.2, according to TradingView data. Throughout that decline, SHIB has closely mirrored the sector’s overall performance.
GMMEME 2026 07 21 08 38 52 As a high-beta meme asset, Shiba Inu’s next significant rally may depend more on renewed enthusiasm across the meme coin sector than on project-specific catalysts.
Previous meme coin rallies have demonstrated this relationship. For example, Dogecoin’s double-digit gains earlier in 2026 helped lift SHIB alongside other meme tokens. However, market sentiment remains cautious today.
The Altcoin Season Index currently stands at 53, suggesting that investor appetite for higher-risk altcoins remains limited. Until broader market conditions improve, SHIB could continue struggling to attract sustained buying interest despite its ecosystem developments.
Currently, Shiba Inu trades at $0.000004282, giving the token a market cap of $2.52 billion. Despite the broader bearish trend, SHIB has gained 3.44% over the past 24 hours and 2.81% over the last seven days.

Shiba Inu is showing renewed signs of weakness as its current price action closely resembles a bearish setup that unfolded in 2023.
According to analysts, Shiba Inu’s recent market structure shares a 91.2% similarity with the price pattern recorded between April and June 2023, increasing the possibility of another downside move before any meaningful recovery.
For context, SHIB has remained in a prolonged downturn since losing the critical $0.00000628 support level in May 2026. Following that rejection, SHIB has continued to print lower highs and lower lows, confirming that sellers remain firmly in control of the market.
Price Action Suggests More Downside As the bearish momentum persists, SHIB has fallen below $0.0000042 and is now trading around $0.00000415, close to the lower boundary of its recent consolidation range.
Notably, this price structure closely mirrors SHIB’s performance between April and June 2023. During that period, the token traded sideways for several weeks before breaking lower and eventually establishing a local bottom. The current setup suggests that a similar sequence may be unfolding once again.
Based on the projected historical pattern, analysts expect SHIB could decline toward the $0.0000032–$0.0000033 support zone through late July and into August 2026. From the current price of $0.00000415, such a move would represent a decline of roughly 20%.
Recovery Remains Possible After Support Test Despite the bearish outlook, the projected pattern also indicates that SHIB could stage a rebound after testing the expected support area.
If buyers step back into the market and overall sentiment improves, Shiba Inu could recover toward the $0.0000038–$0.0000040 range. However, a stronger bullish reversal would require SHIB to reclaim key resistance levels.
Specifically, the token would need to break above the $0.0000044–$0.0000045 resistance zone before targeting the more significant $0.0000055–$0.0000056 area.
Historical Pattern Is a Guide, Not a Guarantee If the historical comparison continues to play out, SHIB could establish another local low before beginning a more sustained recovery. However, while the 91.2% pattern match highlights a credible short-term bearish scenario, it does not guarantee that the token will follow its 2023 trajectory exactly.
At the time of writing, Shiba Inu has posted a modest 3.23% gain over the past 24 hours and 3.69% over the past week. Trading activity has also picked up, with SHIB’s 24-hour trading volume rising 7.58% to $55.46 million. Despite the recent recovery, however, Shiba Inu remains outside the top 30 largest cryptocurrencies by market cap. The token currently ranks 32nd globally, with a market capitalization of approximately $2.46 billion.

Over 324 billion SHIB have left centralized trading platforms, marking one of Shiba Inu's biggest exchange withdrawal events in recent weeks. The market has taken notice of the move right away because significant exchange outflows are typically linked to accumulation rather than active selling. The most recent on-chain data shows that total exchange outflows increased to about 325.7 billion SHIB, greatly outpacing exchange inflows of about 251.5 billion SHIB.
Shiba Inu is ready to take overExchange netflows consequently became extremely negative, at about -74.2 billion SHIB. To put it simply, during the reporting period, significantly more SHIB left exchanges than entered them. Investor accumulation is the most apparent explanation. Tokens are usually moved onto exchanges by traders who plan to sell. Withdrawing assets into long-term storage options, staking platforms, or private wallets frequently denotes a diminished desire to sell right away.
SHIB/USDT Chart by TradingViewThis interpretation is supported by the exchange reserves' ongoing decline, as the overall SHIB reserves on trading platforms continue their wider downward trend. The timing is what makes the situation especially intriguing. At $0.0000114, SHIB is still trapped close to some of its lowest points from 2025.

The asset has been in a protracted downtrend for months, losing several support levels and consistently failing to create a long-term recovery. In the past, when long-term holders started to accumulate during weak periods, significant outflow events frequently occurred. Tokens are often removed from exchanges by investors who believe an asset is undervalued rather than being made available for immediate trading.

After a prolonged decline, the chart itself indicates that SHIB has entered a stabilization phase. In contrast to the sharp movements observed earlier in the year, price action has flattened around the $0.0000110–$0.0000115 region, and volatility has significantly decreased.
Momentum decreases substantiallyBearish momentum may not be as strong as it was in June, as indicated by the RSI's recovery toward the neutral zone. But an instant rally is not guaranteed by the outflow event alone. The overall trend is still negative, and SHIB continues to trade below all major moving averages. Additional barriers are located closer to the 100-day and 200-day trend indicators, while the first significant resistance is still close to the 50-day moving average.
As of right now, it seems that increasing accumulation activity rather than panic selling is responsible for the 324 billion SHIB withdrawal. The ability of buyers to translate improving on-chain dynamics into real price strength over the upcoming weeks will determine whether that accumulation results in a sustainable recovery.
Almost every page comparing these two ends the same cowardly way: both are great, do your own research, here is a buy button. That is not an answer, and anyone typing this comparison into a search bar has already narrowed the field to two and wants somebody to arbitrate. So this page arbitrates. Five rounds, each decided by a number, each declaring a winner, then a verdict with the single fact that would overturn it.
The Tale of the Tape Dogecoin (DOGE)Shiba Inu (SHIB)Price$0.07256$0.000004214Market capabout $11.26 billionabout $2.48 billion24h volumeabout $397 millionabout $56 millionTurnover ratio3.5%2.3%Circulating supplyabout 160 billionabout 590 trillionSupply capnone, inflates forever1 quadrillion, fixed, burningBelow all-time highabout 90.1%about 95.1%LaunchedDecember 2013August 2020 Live data as of July 21, 2026, from CoinGecko and CoinGecko. Prices in this sector move fast; verify before acting.
Round 1: Liquidity DOGE traded about $397 million in 24 hours. SHIB traded about $56 million. That is seven times the volume on four and a half times the market cap, which means the larger coin is also the more actively traded one relative to its size: a 3.5% turnover ratio against 2.3%.
Why this decides more than it looks like it should: turnover is the width of the exit door. In a panic, a coin with 2.3% daily turnover marks down much further to fill the same sell order than one at 3.5%. DOGE also enjoys the deepest exchange coverage in the meme sector and now appears in listed fund products with Dogecoin exposure, which brings a category of buyer SHIB does not yet have.
One honest note on our own data, because it complicates the win. When this site measured the same ratio on July 7, DOGE stood at 6.9% and SHIB at 2.9%. Both have thinned, but DOGE’s turnover has roughly halved in two weeks. It still wins this round comfortably. It is winning it with less than it had.
Winner: Dogecoin. Best argument for SHIB anyway: its volume expanded more than 50% day over day into this reading, which is the shape of interest returning rather than leaving.
Round 2: Supply This is the round that is not close, and it runs the other way.
Dogecoin has no maximum supply. New coins are minted continuously, roughly 5 billion per year against about 160 billion circulating, which is persistent single-digit inflation forever. Every year, DOGE needs new demand of that size simply to hold its price flat. There is a defensible argument that this is a feature, since the emission funds miners and keeps fees negligible for a coin designed as tipping money. There is no argument that it helps the holder.
Shiba Inu has a fixed maximum of one quadrillion tokens, about 590 trillion of which circulate, and its supply moves in the opposite direction: burns permanently remove tokens, and burn activity has picked up recently alongside the price. The quadrillion headline scares newcomers, but the direction of travel is what matters for the next holder, and SHIB’s direction is down while DOGE’s is up.
The honest limit on SHIB’s advantage: burns at their historical scale are small relative to a supply that size. They are directionally right and mathematically modest, and anyone promising that burns alone will reprice SHIB is selling something.
Winner: Shiba Inu. Best argument for DOGE anyway: predictable, transparent, unchanged inflation is a known quantity, and the market has priced it for twelve years.
Round 3: Ecosystem and Utility Dogecoin is deliberately simple. Payments, tipping, merchant acceptance, Proof of Work security, no roadmap to speak of. The simplicity is the product, and for a decade it has been enough.
Shiba Inu built the opposite: ShibaSwap for trading, Shibarium as a layer-2 network, BONE for governance and LEASH for scarcity, plus NFT and gaming projects around the edges. On breadth alone this is not a contest.
The question this site asks of every token applies here too: does any of that activity reach the holder? For SHIB, the honest answer is indirect at best. Shibarium usage feeds burns and narrative rather than a dividend, and the ecosystem’s health does not mechanically transfer to the token’s price. That is the same value-capture problem we examine on our Uniswap and Arbitrum pages, in meme clothing.
Winner: Shiba Inu, on optionality: a coin building things has more ways to surprise you than a coin that has finished being what it is. Best argument for DOGE anyway: it needs nothing to work. There is no roadmap to miss, no layer-2 to fail, no team to leave.
Round 4: Momentum and Structure Recent tape: SHIB up about 1.7% in 24 hours with volume expanding more than half day over day, and roughly flat across the week. DOGE up about 0.2%, roughly flat across the week as well. Both coins are, in plain terms, asleep, which is itself the useful observation: neither is participating in the current rotation that has favored older large caps and RWA tokens.
Our own level records apply. This site’s prediction pages named $0.070 as the floor DOGE must hold and $0.080 as the level that starts a catch-up trade; DOGE sits between them, still undecided two weeks later. For SHIB the marker was volume: we said watch the turnover ratio, and that a rally on dead volume deserves distrust. Volume is now expanding while price barely moves, which is the more constructive of the two sequences.
Winner: Shiba Inu, narrowly, on volume expansion into a flat price. Best argument for DOGE anyway: at 90% below its high with the deepest liquidity in the sector, it is the vehicle any broad meme rotation historically passes through first.
Round 5: Risk DOGE’s risks are structural and boring: infinite supply, dependence on personality-driven attention cycles, and a development pace that can charitably be called relaxed. Its saving grace is that none of these are new; the market has already survived all of them repeatedly.
SHIB’s risks are sharper. It trades about 95% below its 2021 peak, five percentage points deeper than DOGE, which tells you its last cycle unwound harder. Its thesis leans on Shibarium adoption, a burn mechanism that must scale meaningfully to matter, and a small group of known figures steering the project. Thinner turnover also means a rougher exit if sentiment turns.
Winner: Dogecoin. Best argument for SHIB anyway: risks that are visible and specific are easier to monitor than risks that are diffuse. You can watch Shibarium metrics and burn rates. You cannot watch whether a celebrity gets bored.
The Verdict Scorecard: Shiba Inu takes supply, ecosystem and momentum. Dogecoin takes liquidity and risk. That is 3 to 2 on rounds, and the rounds are not equally weighted for every reader, which is why the verdict is conditional rather than a coronation.
Dogecoin is the right choice if size and exit matter more to you than upside. It is the meme coin institutions can access, the one you can leave in a hurry, and the first stop for any sector-wide rotation.
Shiba Inu is the right choice if you are buying asymmetry. Smaller cap, shrinking supply, an ecosystem that could surprise, and a deeper hole to climb out of, which is another way of saying more room if it climbs.
The single fact that would flip this verdict: DOGE’s turnover ratio. It has halved in two weeks, from 6.9% to 3.5%. Liquidity is Dogecoin’s entire structural advantage, and if that ratio keeps falling toward SHIB’s level, DOGE becomes a slower coin with a worse supply schedule and no compensating edge. Watch that number, on this page, monthly. If it recovers above 5%, the verdict hardens toward DOGE. If it falls under 3%, this page will say so, and the recommendation changes.

Frequently Asked Questions Is Dogecoin better than Shiba Inu? On liquidity and risk, yes: DOGE trades about seven times more volume on a 3.5% turnover ratio against SHIB's 2.3%. On supply and ecosystem, SHIB is stronger. The right answer depends on whether you prioritize exit safety or asymmetric upside.
Which is safer, DOGE or SHIB? Dogecoin, on the specific measure of liquidity, which determines how easily a position can be exited. Neither is safe in absolute terms; both are attention-driven assets trading 90% or more below their peaks.
Can Shiba Inu flip Dogecoin? It did briefly in October 2021. Doing it again from a $2.48 billion cap against $11.26 billion requires roughly a 4.5x relative move, which historically only happens in full meme manias.
Which has more upside, DOGE or SHIB? SHIB has a smaller cap, a fixed supply and a deeper drawdown, which mathematically leaves more room. It also carries thinner liquidity and a thesis that depends on ecosystem adoption. More room and more risk are the same sentence here.
What is the main difference between Dogecoin and Shiba Inu? Supply and design. DOGE is an uncapped Proof of Work payments coin with no roadmap. SHIB is a capped, deflationary Ethereum token with a layer-2 network, a decentralized exchange and multiple companion tokens.
Should I buy DOGE or SHIB in 2026? This page gives a conditional verdict rather than advice: DOGE for liquidity and institutional access, SHIB for asymmetry. Both are high-risk speculation, and position sizes should assume drawdowns of 50% or more.
Shiba Inu, a meme-inspired cryptocurrency that has attracted a large community of investors, recently experienced one of its largest exchange outflow events in recent weeks. Over 324 billion SHIB tokens have been withdrawn from centralized trading platforms, a move that market observers typically link to accumulation rather than immediate selling.
Major withdrawal signals investor accumulationRecent on-chain data shows that exchange outflows reached approximately 325.7 billion SHIB, surpassing inflows of about 251.5 billion SHIB during the same period. This dynamic resulted in a net negative exchange flow of roughly -74.2 billion SHIB, indicating a substantial amount of tokens exited trading platforms.
Such negative netflows usually suggest that holders are moving their assets to personal wallets, long-term storage, or staking services, rather than preparing to sell. Traders commonly transfer tokens to exchanges before executing sales, so the removal of a significant number of tokens from these platforms hints at a shift toward accumulation.
With SHIB reserves on exchanges continuing to decrease, a growing trend toward long-term holding has become apparent, according to the latest on-chain indicators.
This withdrawal activity comes as Shiba Inu’s price remains close to $0.0000114, hovering near some of its lowest points recorded in 2025. The asset has struggled to regain upward momentum, experiencing an extended downtrend and losing several key support levels in recent months.
Historically, periods marked by heavy outflows have often coincided with increased accumulation by long-term holders, especially when investors perceive the asset as undervalued. Under such conditions, tokens move off exchanges in anticipation of future price appreciation, rather than being made available for immediate trading.
Mini dictionary: On-chain data refers to blockchain-based information that provides real-time insight into market activity, such as token inflows and outflows, large holder behavior, and overall supply changes.
SHIB enters consolidation phase amid low volatilityAfter significant downward movement earlier in the year, SHIB’s price has entered a stabilization phase. Its value has settled within the $0.0000110 to $0.0000115 range, with volatility greatly reduced compared to previous months.
Technical indicators point to a less aggressive bearish sentiment than seen earlier. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) has moved back toward neutral territory, indicating more balanced market conditions. However, Shiba Inu continues to trade below its major moving averages, and the overall trend remains negative. Resistance is currently established around short- and long-term trend indicators, with the 50-day, 100-day, and 200-day moving averages seen as key barriers to recovery.

The current challenge lies in whether these on-chain signals can translate into lasting price recovery following months of decline.
Although accumulation appears to be rising, Shiba Inu will need sustained buying momentum to overcome technical resistance levels and reverse its prolonged downtrend.
The coming weeks will determine if this wave of token movement from exchanges to private wallets can shift the balance of supply and demand enough to spark a broader rebound for Shiba Inu.

Bitcoin's quantum discount hit a record 30% as Core developers resist freezing dormant addresses and Galaxy Digital launches a $5 million Quantum Readiness programXRP's 30-day MVRV turned positive, but the token still faces resistance at $1.146 and a bigger trend barrier at $1.416A new whale moved $2.76 million in SHIB off Coinbase to a fresh wallet, the second major withdrawal this week as the token consolidates near multi-month lowsBitcoin ETFs posted $727 million in net inflows over five days even as Bitcoin Knots developers and Michael Saylor clash over the BIP-110 proposalThursday's US jobless claims data is the next volatility catalyst ahead of the Federal Reserve's meeting later this month30% for fear: Why Bitcoin is trading at a quantum discountBitcoin's quantum discount has reached 30% for the first time in history, according to fresh data from the Capriole Investments model. With the current market price at $65,472, investors are pricing in an unprecedented risk discount: fundamentally, the asset is valued at almost twice as much, but uncertainty surrounding Q-Day continues to drag the price lower.
The discount continues to deepen, as it stood at 28% at the beginning of the summer.

Capriole founder Charles Edwards added fuelby publicly taking aim at Bitcoin Core developers and directly asking whether they planned to do anything about the issue.

To implement post-quantum protection, Core developers would have to forcibly freeze old "dormant" addresses, including Satoshi Nakamoto's one million coins — a step they are not prepared to take.
While Grayscale considers the panic premature, Citi analysts are warning about a "harvest now, decrypt later" strategy: hackers are already copying mempool traffic in order to crack it retroactively. Against the backdrop of Ethereum's migration to new signature schemes, Core's technological hesitation is costing the market exactly 30% in unrealized value.
While developers delay, businesses are taking the initiative. Galaxy Digital has launched a $5 million Quantum Readiness program to fund grants aimed at protecting the network from Shor's algorithm. Market momentum is building: Coinbase advisers are demanding an immediate code migration, while Project Eleven analysts predict that machines capable of threatening modern cryptography could emerge as early as 2030–2033.
XRP exits the "fear zone": Traders are profitable again, but the chart remains tenseInvestors who accumulated XRP over the past month have finally moved out of the red. According to Santiment analysts, the 30-day MVRV indicator for XRP and other major altcoins, including ETH, ADA and LINK, has crossed above zero, meaning that short-term wallets are now showing a small profit.
The turning point came after Bitcoin's comeback to $65,000. The market was supported by softer US inflation data and fresh inflows into crypto ETFs, which noticeably revived buyers, while the "Fear Buy Zone" of relatively safe bottom buying was left behind.
The rebound is real, but since traders are no longer sitting on losses, they now have a natural incentive to take profits. Any sign of the market cooling could trigger a rapid wave of selling.
Top cap 30-day MVRV comparison, Source: Santiment and SanbaseOn the daily chart, XRP is currently trading near $1.1331, up around 3.5% since the beginning of the week. The price found local support slightly above the psychological $1.00 level and is attempting to develop a full-fledged rebound.
Meanwhile, the Relative Strength Index has settled in neutral territory at 55, confirming that panic selling has stopped and buyers have gained some room to maneuver.
However, it is still too early to celebrate a global reversal, as the asset has now run into resistance at the short-term moving average near $1.1459. The main challenge for bulls remains the heavy long-term trend level around $1.4159.
Only a decisive breakout above this level would prove that XRP has finally broken the downtrend and is ready for significant growth.
Why are new whales vacuuming up SHIB at the local bottom?While retail traders are bored by the summer flat market, major players are quietly vacuuming up supply. According to Arkham Intelligence, Coinbase Prime has recorded a series of large Shiba Inu withdrawals to newly created wallets with no previous transaction history.
The main event was the transfer of 645.928 billion SHIB, worth around $2.76 million, to the address "0xd017dBe7C45".
This is already the second major purchase in a week. Just yesterday, another unknown whale withdrew 162.43 billion SHIB, worth approximately $672,000, from the same platform.
Why are they doing this? Moving tokens to private wallets removes them from exchange order books and reduces the available supply.
History of transactions of '0xd017dBe7C45' with Shiba Inu (SHIB) coin, Source: Arkham IntelligenceThe SHIB chart clearly shows that large capital is carefully buying the local bottom. After a prolonged decline from the May highs, the price found firm support in the $0.00000412–$0.00000423 range, where a bullish RSI signal formed.
The asset is currently trapped in a narrow corridor and trading at $0.00000428. However, the moving average at $0.00000450 is limiting the price from above, while the global downtrend, shown by the red line, remains much higher at around $0.00000594.
Major players are clearly using this prolonged consolidation and reset RSI to accumulate without drawing attention before a potential breakout from Shiba Inu's multi-month decline.
Crypto market outlook: Bitcoin ETFs stage a $727 million comeback while Saylor fights for codeThe crypto market appears to have found a local bottom. Spot Bitcoin ETFs snapped a steep outflow streak, pulling in around $727 million in net inflows over the past five days.
Institutional investors are adding fresh capital while a dispute over the BIP-110 upgrade splits Bitcoin's developer community. Bitcoin itself is holding in the $65,700–$67,200 range after US funds absorbed $227 million on July 20 alone.

When a single wallet buys 10% of a token's circulating supply for less than the cost of a used car, the story usually ends one of two ways. The holder exits. Or the position becomes part of crypto folklore. The Shiba Inu whale cluster chose the second path, and Bubblemaps has been tracking it from the start.
The original tradeIn the second half of 2020, wallet 0x1406 quietly accumulated 103 trillion $SHIB for 38 ETH, roughly $10,000 at the time. Five years later, that same position has been worth as much as $5 billion in a single wallet, and is currently valued above $2.5 billion across the cluster's full footprint. The return on the original bet now sits somewhere north of 21,000x, putting it in the running for the largest single trade in crypto history.
2021: Dodging the radarTo stay safe (and likely under the radar) he split it into 14 addresses in November 2021.
January 2023: Bubblemaps puts the cluster on the mapOur first thread on the $SHIB whale dropped on January 20, 2023. At the time, the cluster controlled 10% of the supply and was worth just over $1 billion. The thread laid out the funding path from the deployer wallet through 0x1406 and asked the obvious question. What does it mean when one entity holds this much of a token?
The reception was louder than expected. Replies poured in pointing at "@Shibtoshi_SG" as the likely owner, and a SquidGrow-aligned community rallied around the holder as a "diamond hands" archetype. One person even claimed ownership of the wallets and asked us to take the thread down. They offered no proof, so we kept it up.
September 2023: cluster tries to disappearBy September 28, 2023, the wallet structure had changed. The cluster had begun fragmenting its holdings across newly created addresses, a textbook obfuscation move when a large holder realizes they are being watched. We mapped the new layout and showed how the cluster's footprint shifted from a handful of obvious wallets to a wider, harder to read web. The pattern was unmistakable: smaller balances, more addresses, less signal in the top-holder list. Only Magic Nodes, our tool for surfacing hidden links between wallets, made the cluster visible as a single entity.
March 2024: $2 billion and countingWhen $SHIB rallied 250% in a single week at the start of 2024, the cluster's value jumped back above $2 billion. By that point, the holdings had spread from a handful of wallets to over 170 addresses. We documented the new structure and called attention to the fact that, despite all the splitting, the cluster had not meaningfully sold.
November 2024: the $2.5 billion snapshotOur final deep dive, on November 19, 2024, confirmed what the on-chain data had been suggesting for nearly two years. The cluster was still holding the vast majority of its original $10,000 investment. Holdings had migrated from 0x1406 to a network of around 150 addresses, Magic Nodes made the underlying concentration visible yet again. The thread also resurfaced a striking detail from the original post. At peak, a single address in this cluster held roughly $5 billion worth of $SHIB before the split.
Where the cluster stands todayThe cluster in question is currently holding 8.51% of $SHIB at the time of writing, down from the 10% we first documented but still enormous by any measure. The slight reduction reflects routine on-chain movement rather than a coordinated exit. Across more than four years of observation, the holder has not sold a meaningful slice of the original 103 trillion $SHIB position.
Why this case still mattersThe $SHIB whale cluster is one of the cleanest real-world examples of why on-chain transparency tools exist. A single entity quietly accumulated a controlling share of a top-20 token, tried to obscure the holdings once the structure was exposed, and has now spent more than four years holding the bag. None of that was visible from price charts or token-unlock calendars. It was only visible because every transfer left a public fingerprint.
For Bubblemaps, this is a benchmark case. It stretches across the full lifecycle of our coverage: discovery, identification, obfuscation, persistence. If you want to explore the current state of the cluster yourself, the interactive maps linked in the threads above are the best starting point.
Wall Street analysts forecast that GE Vernova (GEV - Free Report) will report quarterly earnings of $3.17 per share in its upcoming release, pointing to a year-over-year increase of 70.4%. It is anticipated that revenues will amount to $10.77 billion, exhibiting an increase of 18.2% compared to the year-ago quarter.
The consensus EPS estimate for the quarter has undergone an upward revision of 1.4% in the past 30 days, bringing it to its present level. This represents how the covering analysts, as a whole, have reassessed their initial estimates during this timeframe.
Prior to a company's earnings release, it is of utmost importance to factor in any revisions made to the earnings projections. These revisions serve as a critical gauge for predicting potential investor behaviors with respect to the stock. Empirical studies consistently reveal a strong link between trends in earnings estimate revisions and the short-term price performance of a stock.
While investors typically use consensus earnings and revenue estimates as indicators of quarterly business performance, exploring analysts' projections for specific key metrics can offer valuable insights.
Bearing this in mind, let's now explore the average estimates of specific GE Vernova metrics that are commonly monitored and projected by Wall Street analysts.

Key Takeaways OKLO hit a 52-week low as investors reassessed early-stage nuclear risks.OKLO is advancing fuel fabrication, Aurora projects and isotope capabilities despite remaining pre-revenue.Wider 2026 and 2027 loss estimates, heavy spending and execution risks keep the near-term outlook uncertain. After a strong run in 2025, Oklo Inc. (OKLO - Free Report) has come under heavy selling pressure, with the stock falling 42.7% over the past three months and recently touching a 52-week low of $39.53. The weakness has not been limited to OKLO, as NuScale Power (SMR - Free Report) has declined about 41% and NANO Nuclear Energy (NNE - Free Report) has dropped roughly 40% over the same period. The broad pullback suggests that investors have become more cautious about early-stage nuclear developers because of long commercialization timelines, ongoing losses and limited near-term revenue visibility.

Still, OKLO’s deeper slide raises an important question: Has the market already priced in most of the company’s execution risks, or could the stock remain under pressure until regulatory progress and project development begin producing clearer financial results?
Regulatory Progress, Customer Pipeline Back Long-Term StoryUnlike traditional reactor developers, OKLO is building a vertically integrated platform that combines power generation with fuel fabrication, fuel recycling and isotope production. This integrated approach could provide multiple revenue opportunities over time instead of relying solely on electricity sales.
The company has continued to make operational progress despite the stock's weakness. Construction activities are advancing at the Aurora Fuel Fabrication Facility, while work continues on the Aurora-INL project, where the Nuclear Regulatory Commission has approved the company's Principal Design Criteria topical report. Oklo is also progressing its Aurora-Ohio development alongside plans for a 1.2-gigawatt power campus with Meta, while expanding isotope capabilities through the Groves test reactor and the Idaho Radiochemistry Laboratory.
Compared with NuScale Power, which focuses primarily on commercializing light-water small modular reactors, and NANO Nuclear, which is developing portable microreactors, OKLO is attempting to build an entire nuclear ecosystem. While this broader strategy increases execution complexity, it also creates more potential growth avenues if commercialization succeeds.
Falling Earnings Estimates Reflect OKLO’s Near-Term ChallengesDespite these operational milestones, Wall Street remains cautious. The Zacks Consensus Estimate now points to roughly 3% and 9% wider losses for both 2026 and 2027, respectively. Those downward estimate revisions reflect investors' recognition that OKLO remains a pre-revenue company with significant development costs before meaningful commercial operations begin.

The company continues to invest heavily across several projects simultaneously, including reactor deployment, fuel fabrication, recycling facilities and isotope production. While these investments may strengthen its long-term competitive position, they also delay profitability and increase execution risk.
The earnings outlook also compares unfavorably with peers. NuScale Power has progressed further in certain licensing activities, while NANO Nuclear continues to advance its own commercialization roadmap. Although all three companies remain early-stage nuclear developers, investors are increasingly rewarding companies that demonstrate clearer visibility toward future revenues.
Several Catalysts Could Change Investor SentimentAlthough current earnings remain weak, several upcoming developments could improve confidence in Oklo's business.
The company recently achieved an important milestone after receiving Department of Energy approval of the Documented Safety Analysis for its Groves Isotope Test Reactor. The project has now entered the final startup review process and targets first criticality after completion of readiness reviews. This milestone supports OKLO's broader isotope strategy, which aims to supply radioisotopes for healthcare, manufacturing, scientific research and national security applications.
OKLO has also strengthened its engineering capabilities through acquisitions while continuing to build fuel supply infrastructure. Its Aurora Fuel Fabrication Facility and Tennessee Advanced Fuel Center are designed to support long-term reactor deployment by improving access to nuclear fuel and recycling capabilities. The company's collaboration with NVIDIA and Los Alamos National Laboratory to apply artificial intelligence to fuel validation further demonstrates its effort to combine advanced computing with nuclear technology.

Meanwhile, NuScale Power and NANO Nuclear continue to compete for leadership in the emerging advanced nuclear market. Both companies are pursuing their own regulatory and commercialization milestones, meaning investor attention will likely shift toward whichever developer demonstrates the fastest progress. Even so, OKLO's vertically integrated strategy, customer relationships and fuel-cycle capabilities differentiate it from both SMR and NNE.
OKLO's Risks Still Cannot Be IgnoredThe biggest challenge remains execution. OKLO still generates virtually no recurring operating revenues, while commercial power production remains several years away. Delays in regulatory approvals, construction schedules or fuel availability could postpone commercialization further.
The company is also spending aggressively to develop multiple projects simultaneously. If timelines slip, additional financing may eventually become necessary despite its current liquidity. Moreover, valuation remains heavily dependent on future expectations rather than operating fundamentals.
Competition also continues to intensify. NuScale Power already possesses greater market visibility in certain reactor segments, while NANO Nuclear is pursuing similar opportunities in advanced microreactors. Investors therefore have multiple nuclear developers to choose from, making execution increasingly important.
Time to Buy the Dip or Stay Away?OKLO remains one of the most ambitious companies in the advanced nuclear industry, with progress across reactor development, fuel fabrication, recycling and isotope production supporting its long-term vision. However, the stock's sharp decline reflects legitimate concerns about widening losses, delayed revenue generation and significant execution risks. While upcoming regulatory milestones and commercialization progress could eventually improve investor sentiment, the near-term outlook remains uncertain. Given the weaker earnings estimate revisions and the risks associated with its pre-revenue business model, OKLO stock currently carries a Zacks Rank #4 (Sell).

CoreWeave (NASDAQ:CRWV) has become the poster child for the AI infrastructure gold rush, and also its most polarizing bet. Capital expenditures are set to run $31 billion to $35 billion in 2026 alone, dwarfing revenue and lighting up both the bull and bear thesis. Our model sees meaningful upside from here.
Our 24/7 Wall St. price target on CRWV is $163.32 over the next 12 months, versus a current price of $73.06. That implies 123.54% upside and a buy recommendation. Confidence is moderate at 50%, reflecting the tension between a nearly $100 billion backlog and a balance sheet stretched by breakneck capex.
24/7 Wall St. Price Target Summary Metric Value Current Price $73.06 24/7 Wall St. Price Target $163.32 Upside 123.54% Recommendation BUY Confidence Level 50% A Brutal Month for a Booming Business CRWV has traded like a stock in crisis. Shares fell 38.06% over the past month and 40.61% over the past year, even as the business booked its strongest quarter yet.
Q1 2026 revenue hit $2.08 billion, up 111.7% year over year, while backlog reached $99.4 billion. A July Meta Compute announcement spooked investors about cannibalization. Debt has climbed to roughly $35 billion, net loss widened to $740 million, and interest expense doubled to $536 million.
The Case for $200 and Higher Bulls have real ammunition. New Q1 bookings exceeded $40 billion, and management guides to $12 billion to $13 billion in 2026 revenue with low-double-digit adjusted operating margin by Q4. CoreWeave surpassed 1 GW of active power and targets more than 8 GW by 2030.
Investment-grade financing on DDTL 4.0 at sub-6% implied cost is a structural win. Rosenblatt’s John McPeake carries the most aggressive Street call at $250, reiterated after the Meta scare. Our bull-case scenario points to $166.97, roughly 128.54% upside.
What Could Go Wrong The bear case starts with capex arithmetic. Q1 2026 free cash flow ran negative $4.71 billion, and 2026 capex guidance of up to $35 billion means CoreWeave will keep leaning on capital markets. Total liabilities sit above $50 billion.
A securities fraud class action alleging concealed data center delays adds legal overhang. Customer concentration is real: Meta and OpenAI alone represent tens of billions in commitments.

Management pushed back that gross margin compression to 68% is “predominantly timing-based, not economic” as new deployments ramp. Our bear-case target lands at $131.55, well above today’s price.
How CoreWeave Compares to Nebius and IREN Nebius Group (NASDAQ:NBIS | NBIS Price Prediction) competes for the same hyperscaler and AI-lab dollars. It achieved positive adjusted EBITDA of $129.5 million and carries a market cap of roughly $40 billion, similar to CRWV’s $39.9 billion. Yet Nebius’s 2026 revenue guide of $3 billion to $3.4 billion is a fraction of CoreWeave’s $12 billion to $13 billion. On a price-to-sales basis, CRWV at 6.41x trailing looks reasonable.
IREN (NASDAQ:IREN) is the smaller, faster-mover comparable. IREN targets $3.7 billion in ARR by end of 2026 with 5 gigawatts of secured power globally and a $3.4 billion NVIDIA cloud contract. At a market cap of roughly $14 billion, IREN trades cheaper on power secured, but CoreWeave has the contracted revenue lead. The peer set makes our $163.32 target reasonable, not aggressive.
CoreWeave Price Prediction 2026-2030 The setup on CRWV looks constructive. The 24/7 Wall St. price target of $163.32 reflects a company whose backlog and power pipeline justify a re-rate once operating margin inflects in the second half of 2026.
Confidence is moderate at 50% because debt and litigation are genuine tail risks. Watch for adjusted operating margin exiting Q4 in the low double digits as guided. The setup weakens if capex creeps above $35 billion without matching backlog conversion.
Year 24/7 Wall St. Price Target 2026 $101 2027 $163 2028 $260 2029 $420 2030 $560 These projections assume CoreWeave converts backlog on schedule and reaches its 8 GW power target by 2030. Meaningful upside or downside could come from Nvidia GPU pricing, litigation outcomes, or hyperscaler in-sourcing shifts.
