It's not that I don't like @Astro_peng or @POPDOGsolcoin 's posts😘, but I can't wait for bullverse to become a big success and attract a lot of people.
Much more varied content and different people. I feel that time is near. Come on Btc, let's launch bullrun and bullverse will become a giant of the tech
I'm waiting for my allowance to buy some bull 😝

Mercuryo, a Web3 payments provider, has announced the rollout of Spend, a virtual debit card promising to streamline crypto payments.
Complete with Apple Pay and Google Pay compatibility, Spend facilitates payments directly from Solana wallets to over 90M Mastercard merchants across the globe.
WHAT IS SPEND??
Mercuryo’s Spend allows wallet apps to integrate virtual Mastercard debit cards directly into their applications. Through the Spend Card, Mercury promises to enable the crypto community to use their crypto assets to “spend on anything. Anytime. Anywhere.”
Spend aims to provide a fast and cost-effective method for crypto users to convert and spend their digital assets from their wallets. Beyond the simplicity of Mastercard, Apple Pay, and Google Pay integration, Spend also offers card customization, meaning wallet providers can incorporate their logos into virtual cards.
Spend is fully self-custodial, meaning users have full control over any assets deposited into the card account. Additionally, the platform offers multi-chain support, including Solana, Ethereum, and PolkaDot.
As part of the announcement, Mercuryo teased that several leading Web3 wallets will be adding Spend in the near future. SolanaFloor engaged Mercuryo for comment on the matter but is yet to receive a response.
Why Web3 Needs Better Off-Ramps
Since the birth of the industry, crypto companies have focused tirelessly on streamlining the flow of funds into decentralized economies. According to Mercuryo, “on-ramping is now a user-friendly process, and users can purchase crypto with ease.”
While onboarding has become easier with exchanges and third-party apps readily available, bringing funds back into the real world still poses significant barriers. Mercuryo argues that the biggest struggles facing crypto off-ramping are:
1. Poor UX of existing solutions - Users need to jump through a variety of hoops to withdraw funds. Many platforms are only available in certain regions and popular offboarding platforms offer limited support outside of mainstream cryptos.
2. Bank restrictions - Traditional banks often block payments from crypto-related companies and freeze accounts suspected of interacting with cryptocurrency.
3. Extortionate fees - Third-party apps and intermediaries can charge high fees on crypto-to-fiat withdrawals, discouraging users from transferring funds.
Slow processing times - After becoming accustomed to rapid, permissionless transfers onchain, crypto-to-fiat withdrawals can feel slow and cumbersome.
While the industry loves to discuss and promote progress and efforts toward crypto onboarding, finding seamless methods of getting funds off-chain is equally important.
Mercuryo’s commitment to simplified crypto off-ramps helps to legitimize digital currencies as meaningful financial tools. Through the Spend card, millions of crypto users may be able to enjoy improved access to their funds in real-world contexts, solidifying the role of cryptocurrency in the Web2 world

BTC, the local setup is broken. As I wrote earlier in the posts, nevertheless, the main setup that Bitcoin is currently following is a medium-term setup inside the pattern of which Bitcoin is now located, see the graph (the blue lines above and below are the boundaries of the pattern), the words of the US Federal Reserve's Powell did not last long for the market that rates would be lowered. The market needs real action. The first of which will be in the next week of September.
the input to the exchanges exceeds the output -
13%, 2000 btc
Altcoins, everything is within the norm, as I wrote earlier in the posts above. This scenario was calculated. There is no endless correction, just as there is no endless growth. September will be important and it is more likely that the reversal will begin next month (it will begin, this does not mean that in one day or hour the coins will reach their historical peaks)

Tokenized US Treasury Bonds Surpass $2 Billion!
Does this sentence (and its implications) seem incomprehensible to you?
Let's break it down together
1. US Treasury bonds
These are securities issued by the American government, purchasable by anyone on traditional financial markets.
You are literally lending money to the US government and in return for this nice gesture, you are promised a return (currently 3.8 %)
Treasury bills are simply acknowledgements of debt.
The US government is indebted to you (congratulations, you have a superpower in your pocket!)
2. “tokenized”
Literally: injected into a blockchain
Treasury bonds are transformed from a "virtual electronic" state (information on the hard drive of the Fed or a central bank) to a "cryptographic" state by being transposed in the form of digital assets (i.e. tokens) on a blockchain network.
We are talking about "tokenization of financial assets"
3. What for?
Let's simplify:
- Cheaper, lower costs for the issuer (government) and the holder
- Fewer intermediaries (savings on this side too)
- Excellent liquidity
- Unlimited fragmentation potential (a treasury bond is sold at least in tranches of $100 , with tokenization it is possible to divide this threshold by 10, 100, 10,000 to make the asset accessible to a wider audience)
- Transparent
- Ultra secure
- Auditable
- ...
To put it simply, there is SO much upside to using blockchain for financial assets that there is NO scenario where this technological approach will not prevail in the coming decade.
These 2 billion are therefore a very timid incursion into a market of 27,000 billion dollars just for US Treasury Bonds (and this without even counting other asset categories, such as indexes, shares, financial real estate, etc.)
In short and in conclusion, the tokenization of global financial assets and "The (real) next big thing" for blockchain and crypto

Breaking new all-time highs in TVL every month this year, Solana LSTs (Liquid Staking Tokens) have established themselves as one of the fundamental pillars of the ecosystem.
Yet, despite its growing popularity and the wealth of benefits, only 6.4% of all staked SOL is liquid staked, suggesting plenty of Solana users still have some lingering questions about LSTs.
What is liquid staking on Solana? How do Solana LSTs work and why should Solana users consider leveraging LSTs to optimize their DeFi strategies?
With one of Solana's longest-standing protocols launching liquid staking services, there's never been a better time to refresh your knowledge.
What is Liquid Staking MEV?
MEV, or Maximum Extractable Value, is an umbrella term that covers a range of profit-generation strategies and arbitrage opportunities that occur within block production.
For example, by rearranging the order of transactions within a processing queue, MEV tools can profit from mismatched prices in liquidity pools across different DEXes. Some Liquid Staking providers, like Jito, eliminate MEV spam transactions and pass these rewards on to stakers, effectively boosting their staking rewards.
To date, Jito has captured over 31,000 SOL in MEV fees, sharing a percentage of these fees with over 100,000 active accounts who liquid stake their SOL tokens through the Jito protocol.
What are the Benefits of Liquid Staking?
Liquid staking has become a key component of Solana’s DeFi landscape, and for good reason. Here’s why:
1. Earn staking rewards without locking SOL - Solana LSTs make it possible to continue earning generous staking rewards, without losing immediate access to your staked assets.
2. Expanded liquidity and DeFi strategies - Users can leverage their LSTs to capitalize on DeFi yield generation strategies, while still earning staking rewards.
3. Contribute to Solana’s security and decentralization - By liquid staking SOL tokens, users help to further decentralize and secure the Solana network by delegating SOL across a variety of validators.
What are the risks of liquid Staking?
While there are plenty of reasons to use liquid staking on Solana, it’s not without its flaws. Some of the risks associated with Solana LSTs include:
Smart contract risk - LST protocols rely on smart contracts to operate. If any of these contracts is exploited by a malicious actor, stakers could be a
risk of losing their funds.
LST price depeg - Despite typically maintaining their pegged value, LST tokens on other blockchains have fallen victim to temporary price depegs in the past. This could be problematic during black swan events or periods of market turmoil.
Where Can I Liquid Stake my SOL Tokens?
Now that you’ve got a better understanding of how liquid staking on Solana works, let’s recap some of the most reliable and trustworthy liquid staking providers in the market
ANNOUNCING STEPSOL - POWERED BY STEP FINANCE & SANCTUM
STEPSOL
Entering Solana's flourishing LST landscape for the first time, Step Finance is one of the oldest Solana applications in the ecosystem. Doubling as an intuitive portfolio dashboard and a comprehensive DeFi and NFT analytics platform, Step recently expanded its extensive product offering to include its LST, stepSOL.
On top of earning generous APY, stepSOL holders are also eligible to earn additional STEP Reward Options, which are claimable every five days via the Step Finance dashboard. Stakers who've already delegated their SOL to the Step Validator can head to Sanctum's Stake Accounts page and convert their stake account to stepSOL.
What's more, Step Finance has partnered with Meteora and will be offering incentivized rewards through the following pools:
•STEP/stepSOL
•xSTEP/stepSOL
•stepSOL/edgeSOL

Crypto Community Smug About Global IT Outage, But Does Blockchain Actually Fix This?
A software bug invoked international hysteria when a bug in a Windows content update shut down banks, airlines, and emergency services.
Showcasing the world’s reliance on centralized systems, a global IT outage brought the world to its knees. Across the planet, major service providers like banks, supermarkets, and logistics companies found themselves unable to operate, causing significant disruption.
Eager to prove its relevance, the crypto community was quick to launch a tirade of smug comments. “Crypto fixes this” was heard across social media platforms, with crypto advocates championing blockchain as an obvious solution to singular points of failure.
But is that truly the case? While decentralization aims to eliminate centralized points of failure, would blockchain solutions actually have prevented this widespread technical meltdown?
What Happened?
The chaos began when CrowdStrike, a cybersecurity provider, pushed a defective single content update to Windows hosts. The bug affected millions of Microsoft Windows devices all over the world, causing infinite reboot loops and leaving users staring at Windows’ infamous BSoD (Blue Screen of Death).
Attempting to bring clarity to the situation CrowdStrike CEO George Kurtz, released a statement on 𝕏. Assuring affected users that “this is not a security incident or cyberhack”, the CEO claims that “the issue has been identified, isolated, and a fix has been deployed”.
While Kurtz has indicated that a fix has been deployed, Windows users globally report still being unable to access their devices.
Fortunately, savvy developers were on hand to remedy the situation and provide timely solutions.
Affected users can reboot their Windows devices in Safe Mode and delete the defective update file, or wait until CrowdStrike implemented resolution is distributed.
CRWD stock
In traditional markets, CrowdStrike stock (CRWD) suffered a crippling blow, down 8.82% in today’s trading, based on NASDAQ data. While this might seem insignificant when compared to crypto’s volatility, price movements of this scale are uncommon in traditional markets.
Does Crypto Really Fix This?
The crypto community wasted no time calling out the flaws of centralized systems and singular points of failure. Citing mass outages like today’s as evidence that decentralized systems are the future of infrastructure, crypto advocates were quick to leverage the event as an example of “Bitcoin fixes this”.
However, not all pockets of the crypto community were in agreement. Several blockchain developers and engineers highlighted that in this specific example, pushing bugged code to production would likely have the same effect to blockchain networks.
Despite the specifics and technicalities, the event serves as a powerful reminder of the flaws in centralized services and singular points of failure. Commentators remarked that society’s reliance on centralized companies and infrastructure providers doesn’t bode well for our future.
This belief reinforces the viability of DePin technology, which aims to distribute services across a variety of independent providers and establish more secure and reliable infrastructure. Frank Mathis, founder of GenesysGo, highlights the importance of conducting rigorous security checks before pushing software updates.
Cryptocurrency and blockchain technology may not have been a direct solution to this particular problem. However, global outages like the CrowdStrike defect help to promote discussion around the benefits of decentralization and distributed systems.
