mNAV speculation in public markets is back. Coined as a colloquial oversimplification in crypto lingo, mNAV means multiple-to-net asset value or the ratio of market capitalization to the crypto assets held by a public company. However, as with most parlance from the nascent crypto sector, the acronym is a misnomer. Unlike trusts, public companies do not have “net assets,” a controlled term, nor is there any right of common shareholders to redeem shares for any assets. Even MicroStrategy, the largest company trading at a positive mNAV, explicitly tells its shareholders that its stock (MSTR) doesn’t confer any ownership interest in…

Disclosure: The views and opinions expressed here belong solely to the author and do not represent the views and opinions of crypto.news’ editorial. A new class of blockchains like Berachain, Story (IPfi), Unichain, Monad, and MegaETH are leading a wave of specialized blockchain launches designed to serve increasingly diverse decentralized finance applications. But these chains aren’t just niche alternatives—they’re breaking users free from the constraints of the general-purpose status quo. This approach challenges the long-standing notion that a handful of general-purpose networks can support all use cases—and declares that the future isn’t one monolithic chain to rule them all, but…

Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin is doubling down on what he believes is the most underrated strength in crypto: privacy. In a latest X post, he referred to it as the “true alpha,” highlighting a focus not only just on scalability, but on decentralization to protecting users’ data and autonomy in an increasingly monitored world. Buterin’s take is grounded in both philosophy and code, which is usual for the Ethereum (ETH) creator. He recently shared technical updates involving advanced zero-knowledge proof systems — mathematical tools that let users prove things without revealing underlying information.
