The report estimates the tokenized asset market could reach $60 billion by 2030, led by public equities ($26 billion), government bonds ($24…

Vitalik Buterin recently sent a 256 ETH grant to two messaging projects, Session and SimpleX Chat, without the usual ecosystem fanfare. The gesture was modest in size but pointed in intent, because both applications occupy a part of the internet that rarely gets real support: metadata-resistant communication. Their designs tackle the parts of digital messaging that encryption alone cannot protect, the structural details that reveal who is speaking, how often, and across which networks. Buterin’s donation draws attention to this area with unusual clarity, highlighting two projects built to reduce the information that modern platforms routinely broadcast by default. Session…

The cold war between decentralized finance (DeFi) and Wall Street incumbents turned hot Tuesday, with Uniswap Labs founder Hayden Adams accusing Citadel Securities of engineering a regulatory kill-switch for the industry. Adams alleges the market-making giant is pressuring the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to legally reclassify software developers as “centralized intermediaries,” a designation that would impose impossible compliance burdens on permissionless protocols. Adams’ remarks, published on social media, claim that Citadel is pushing the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to classify software creators of decentralized protocols as if they operated traditional institutions, a shift he argues would reshape how…

Selling pressure has intensified across spot and derivatives markets, and volatility continues to rise as traders struggle to identify a reliable support zone. A new CryptoQuant report by Darkfost highlights one of the most alarming developments: Ethereum’s open interest on Binance has been steadily collapsing for more than three months.…

Singapore is doubling down on tokenized finance through a series of pilots in which its pending stablecoin draft legislation will play a supporting role. The Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) is eager to build an institution-led digital finance ecosystem that distances itself from the volatility of the crypto market. It is preparing to issue tokenized government bills settled in wholesale CBDC next year in a move MAS said could help its digital market reach “lift off” after years of experimenting with tokenization. Dr Cheryl Wang from the Global Fintech Institute said Singapore is deliberately shifting its narrative away from its…
