Dougโs going parabolic, straight to the web3โ
With diamond hands, holders cried,
โDougโs gonna moon! Donโt get fried!โ

Will Ethereum remain institutions' top choice?
jonahrobrts breaks down the blockchain competition for TradFi's attention ๐คผโโ๏ธ
========================================
Disruption. Digitization. Financial inclusion. Future-proofing.
What do all of these oft-repeated buzzwords have in common? Theyโve all been used by crypto-pilled associates at TradFi firms to pitch their bosses on the exciting upside of blockchain tech. This year, it seems, the executives are listening.
Institutions jumped into crypto more headlong than ever in 2024. Their moves are starting to bridge the gap between TradFi and DeFi. However, this article isnโt focused on why firms are building onchain. Instead, we are focusing on where these funds are choosing to build.
----------------------------
Whatโs Happening on Ethereum?
Ethereum is the worldโs largest smart-contract blockchain network. It has secured over $90 billion in RWAs, including stablecoins. 2024 has been a big year for the adoption of non-stablecoin RWAs on Ethereum as well, with the network growing its onchain U.S. treasuries, bonds, and cash equivalents from $800 million to over $1 .5 billion and overall non-stablecoin RWA value to $2 .9 billion.
Some of the major players building on Ethereum this year include
Visa, BlackRock and FTI_US
Earlier this month, Visa announced that they are building the Visa Tokenized Asset Platform (VTAP) on Ethereum. This is the companyโs biggest step toward crypto adoption thus far. VTAP enables Visa to issue and manage fiat-backed tokens on Ethereum. It is intended to be a sandbox for participating financial institutional partners to create and experiment with fiat-backed tokens. They expect to begin piloting the platform with Spanish multinational bank BBVA in 2025. While the VTAP program is certainly an experiment, it gives credit to the thesis that TradFi will migrate its operations onto Ethereum over the coming decades.
----------------------------
Yet, the success of Ethereumโs competitors highlights a critical point: institutions are no longer bound to a single network. While Ethereum is foundational, blockchains like Solana and Stellar provide alternatives that are increasingly hard to ignore. However, they also present novel interoperability concerns.
Interoperability is central to the future of institutional blockchain adoption. As Visa states in their VTAP press release announcement, the largest benefits of building onchain include easy integration, programmability, and interoperability. Institutions that venture onto non-EVM chains like Solana or Stellar may face challenges in asset liquidity and protocol compatibility. This can lead to reliance on third-party services to bridge assets between chains, which introduces complexity and security risks. Ethereumโs widespread use means that staying within the EVM ecosystemโwhether through Ethereum or Layer 2 solutionsโremains the simplest and most secure option for institutions.
----------------------------
However, for Ethereum to maintain its lead in the race toward institutional adoption, it must continue to balance world-class security and stability with the performance and scalability that competing chains continue to push. The race to capture the attention of institutional finance will be won by the network that can not only meet todayโs demands but also anticipate the needs of tomorrow. Ethereum is well-positioned for now, but staying on top will require constant evolution.

The AI x Crypto narrative is on a tear and
bittensor_
's $TAO token is leading the way ๐
Here's why ๐
======================
As one of the most prominent projects in this space, Bittensor is positioning itself as the project to watch.
At its core, Bittensor is pushing a new frontier: creating a decentralized network where AI models can be trained and shared in a way that aligns incentives for both developers and users.
As the subnet limit is progressively expanded โ and eventually removed altogether โ the potential for exponential growth within the Bittensor ecosystem becomes clear. More subnets mean more AI models, more collaboration, and more growth for the ecosystem.
Crucially, all this activity increases demand for TAO itself. Since TAO is required to acquire any subnet token, the introduction of dTAO could further fuel its demand, making Bittensor even more attractive to investors.
TAOโs Halving in 2025
Bittensor is approaching its first halving event, slated for late 2025. Much like Bitcoinโs halving cycles, this event will cut the rate at which new TAO tokens are emitted by half.
Currently, the Bittensor network emits 1 TAO as block rewards (7,200 TAO daily) which are distributed among miners, validators, subnet owners, and delegators. However, when the halving occurs (triggered when 10.5 million TAO are in circulation), this emission will be halved to 0.5 TAO per block, reducing the daily supply of new TAO entering the market.
Why does this matter? When the supply of TAO is cut, it introduces scarcity. In any market, reduced supply with steady or rising demand (thanks to increasing subnets and introduction of dTAO) can only lead in one direction: upward.
Now letโs take a look at the macro level things happening in the world of AI that are considered positive for AI x crypto projects like Bittensor.
Issues with OpenAI
OpenAI is at a crossroads. Recently, news broke that OpenAI is transitioning from a non-profit control to a for-profit benefit corporation. Following this restructuring, the companyโs valuation has soared to over $150 billion and theyโve raised $6 .6 billion in fresh funding.

bittensor_
's $TAO token is leading the way ๐
Here's why ๐
======================
As one of the most prominent projects in this space, Bittensor is positioning itself as the project to watch.
At its core, Bittensor is pushing a new frontier: creating a decentralized network where AI models can be trained and shared in a way that aligns incentives for both developers and users.
As the subnet limit is progressively expanded โ and eventually removed altogether โ the potential for exponential growth within the Bittensor ecosystem becomes clear. More subnets mean more AI models, more collaboration, and more growth for the ecosystem.
Crucially, all this activity increases demand for TAO itself. Since TAO is required to acquire any subnet token, the introduction of dTAO could further fuel its demand, making Bittensor even more attractive to investors.
TAOโs Halving in 2025
Bittensor is approaching its first halving event, slated for late 2025. Much like Bitcoinโs halving cycles, this event will cut the rate at which new TAO tokens are emitted by half.
Currently, the Bittensor network emits 1 TAO as block rewards (7,200 TAO daily) which are distributed among miners, validators, subnet owners, and delegators. However, when the halving occurs (triggered when 10.5 million TAO are in circulation), this emission will be halved to 0.5 TAO per block, reducing the daily supply of new TAO entering the market.
Why does this matter? When the supply of TAO is cut, it introduces scarcity. In any market, reduced supply with steady or rising demand (thanks to increasing subnets and introduction of dTAO) can only lead in one direction: upward.
Now letโs take a look at the macro level things happening in the world of AI that are considered positive for AI x crypto projects like Bittensor.
Issues with OpenAI
OpenAI is at a crossroads. Recently, news broke that OpenAI is transitioning from a non-profit control to a for-profit benefit corporation. Following this restructuring, the companyโs valuation has soared to over $150 billion and theyโve raised $6 .6 billion in fresh funding.
Additionally, thereโs been recent departures of key executives, including Chief Technology Officer Mira Murati and two other senior executives, raising concerns about potential internal issues.

At least that's what economists Tyler Cowen and Alex Tabarrok think.
They praise the performance of Ethereum's transition from POW to POS:
โHave you ever seen those videos of those guys in Saudi Arabia where theyโre changing the tires of the car while the car is moving? Thatโs what Ethereum did. Amazing.โ
Alex Tabarrok says Satoshi Nakamoto should also receive the award, but he thinks he is dead.

๐ฎ Standard Chartered predicts a $SOL that could be multiplied by 5, a $ETH by 4 and a $BTC multiplied by 3 by the end of 2025 if Donald Trump wins the American presidential election.
Standard Chartered's Geoff Kendrick believes that if Kamala Harris becomes president, "Ethereum will hit the $7 ,000 level by the end of 2025."
Kendrick sees bitcoin reaching $200 ,000 by the end of 2025, regardless of the election outcome.
"The introduction of a Solana exchange-traded fund (ETF) would be more likely under a Trump presidency."

Based Rollups
What are they, why do they exist, and which projects are already making waves?
A 101 explainer ๐
==================================
Scaling #Ethereum has been one of the most discussed challenges in crypto.
To address this, the community chose a rollup-centric approach. The idea is simple: Instead of hosting all applications on Ethereum, the focus is on rollups that offer faster, cheaper transactions while still settling back on Ethereum. As a result, you get faster, cheaper transactions, but still keep Ethereumโs security.
They're bringing more users and value to Ethereum, however, concerns remain about their reliance on centralized sequencers and liquidity fragmentation across chains.
This is where based rollups come in. They integrate more closely with Ethereum's infrastructure, helping retain value within the ecosystem. This new method of building rollups could bring additional value to Ethereum and $ETH .
What are Based rollups?
Based rollups, or L1-sequenced rollups, are a type of rollup where the base L1 chain, like Ethereum, manages transaction sequencing directly.
Unlike traditional rollups that rely on their own sequencers, based rollups tap into the security, liveness, and decentralization of the L1 by outsourcing transaction sequencing to the L1โs infrastructure. This infrastructure includes proposers, searchers, builders, and other actors who permissionlessly include based rollup blocks in L1 blocks.
How do Based rollups work?
Based rollups use the L1 for consensus, data availability, and settlement layers, while handling execution independently. For instance, when Ethereum is the base L1, the key layers of based rollups are as follows:
1. Execution Layer โ Managed by the rollup itself, where transactions are executed off-chain.
2. Consensus Layer โ Relies on Ethereum validators to sequence transactions.
3. Data Availability Layer โ Uses Ethereum as the DA layer to ensure that transaction data is available for validation by anyone.
4. Settlement Layer โ Also part of Ethereum, where final transaction states of the rollup are recorded.
Based rollups use Ethereum for everything from ordering transactions to settling them. While this approach may not seem radically different from traditional rollups, it fundamentally shifts how sequencing is handled. Instead of relying solely on separate sequencers, based rollups leverage Ethereum itself for transaction sequencing.
Why based rollups?
As Justin Drake outlined in his original post, based rollups are worth your attention for several reasons:
1. Inherited Liveness and Decentralization โ One of the key advantages of based rollups is their ability to inherit the liveness guarantees of the base L1 chain. As long as the L1 is operational, so is the rollup.
2. Economic Alignment with L1 โ The economic model of based rollups creates a mutually beneficial relationship with the L1. Priority fees and MEV from these rollups naturally flows to the L1. This synergy doesnโt just add value to the base layer, it also boosts the legitimacy and brand awareness of the rollups themselves, thanks to Ethereumโs community.
3. Cost Efficiency โ Outsourcing sequencing to Ethereum reduces development costs, accelerates time to market, and lowers user costs (especially at scale) for based rollups.
However, based rollups have trade-offs. They sacrifice some profitability by relying on Ethereum for sequencing, missing out on priority fees and MEV. Additionally, they contend with Ethereum's inherent challenges, such as slow block times, which can cause latency issues.
There's a real debate that these changes might compromise the simplicity and security that initially made based rollups appealing.

In April 2024 an elderly victim from the US was targeted by Indian call scammers posing as Coinbase support resulting in a large portion of their life savings stolen.
Pleased to share that I helped recover $275K which was recently seized and will be sent back to them.

During my research I found $5M + stolen from other victims of this group which were laundered from Ethereum/Bitcoin to Tron via centralized exchanges before stablecoins were transferred to OTCs.

10 years ago, on October 6, 2014, the first stablecoin was launched.
Called Realcoin, the first tokens were issued on the Omni overlay of the Bitcoin network.
Now called #Tether (USDT), over 120 billion tokens are in circulation and the company generated more profits than BlackRock in 2023!
Tether generates its yield from U.S. Treasuries, which the company holds more of than some countries, such as Germany.
