Mike Cagney, CEO of financial services firm Figure, has said that growing interest in real-world assets (RWAs) on public blockchains lacks meaning without yield for token holders. He argued that public blockchains are built to replace traditional financial intermediaries, not host them. Cagney shared these comments this week during a public discussion on X. RWA Growth and the TVL Debate In his tweet, Cagney said the market often confuses activity with real value. Metrics like total value locked (TVL) only matter if they generate fees that benefit token holders. He notes that RWAs have gained attention because big financial firms…

Arthur Hayes, co-founder and former CEO of crypto exchange BitMEX, argued in a Substack essay published Friday that the Federal Reserve’s new “reserve management purchases” (RMP) program is effectively a rebranded form of quantitative easing. Hayes argues that by buying short-term Treasury bills and recycling liquidity through money markets, the Fed is effectively financing government spending while avoiding the political stigma of quantitative easing, even as officials frame the program as a technical liquidity operation. “The RMP is a thinly disguised way for the Fed to cash the government’s checks. This is highly inflationary from both a financial and real…

If anyone thought speculation in precious metals markets was getting out of control, crypto traders have taken that frenzy to new levels. In DeFi, yield farmers are claiming annualized yields of up to 80% APR on tokenized gold. If that trade sounds reckless and unadvisable, it is. Constructing a trade to achieve yields 22 times higher than a US Treasury obviously stacks up wobbly risks to toppling heights. Spot gold and silver are volatile enough in their own right, even before adding tokenization, protocol risks, and a daisy chain of trust in offshore third parties. Gold volatility implied from options…

Current price action is compressing near key technical levels, making the next directional move increasingly important. Ethereum Price Analysis: The Daily Chart On the daily chart, ETH has slightly broken above the broader descending channel that has defined the price action for several months. The recent advance has pushed the asset back toward the upper boundary of this structure, resulting in a local bullish breakout attempt above the short-term channel dynamics. However, this breakout lacks strong momentum…
