🚨 The Financial Times publicly apologises to its readers for 14 years of negative coverage of cryptocurrencies.
"We are sorry if at any time in the last 14 years, you have chosen based on our coverage not to buy something that has increased in number. It's cool when the numbers go up. And we are sorry if you misunderstood our crypto cynicism as a statement of support for traditional finance, because we hate it too"

🇺🇸 The latest report from the US Treasury Department states that “the primary use case for #Bitcoin appears to be as a store of value, aka ‘digital gold’ in the DeFi world.”
The report adds that "speculative interest appears to have played a significant role in the growth of digital tokens so far."
“The market cap of digital assets remains small relative to other financial and real assets, and growth so far does not appear to have cannibalized demand for Treasuries.”

There once was a coin named $DOUG the Duck,
Who waddled into crypto with a splash of luck.
“Buy now!” he quacked, “Don’t be a pleb my G,
Doug’s going parabolic, straight to the web3”
With diamond hands, holders cried,
“Doug’s gonna moon! Don’t get fried!”
The FOMO was real, the hype legit,
No paper hands here, just HODLing grit.
“Doug’s got the juice, he’s on a pump!”
Even the bears took a bullish jump.
So whether it dips or flips or soars,
Doug the Duck will HODL the floors!

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.

At Solana Breakpoint 2024, Charles d’Haussy, CEO of the dYdX Foundation, discussed the protocols’s upcoming enhancements and muse on Solana’s growth.
While dYdX, one of the crypto industry’s oldest decentralized perpetual exchanges, runs its own sovereign appchain, the platform recently integrated Solana-based assets into its platform.
The move brought greater exposure to a wealth of Solana ecosystem tokens, allowing dYdX traders to express their opinion on assets like $SOL , $JUP , and $WIF .
Drawing on his rich experience in the industry, d’Haussy made fascinating remarks about Solana culture.
Solana Builder Energy
When dYdX governance moved to include more Solana-based assets via a Raydium integration in June, d’Haussy and the dYdX were hesitant to approach the Solana community.
“When we started to reach out to the Solana ecosystem, I was kind of cautious and trying to be gentle, not knowing exactly how we would be welcome for conversations about possible integration”
From an outside perspective, blockchain tribalism formed a perceived barrier to entry. Chain maximalism is a serious obstacle within the industry, which is further exacerbated by obstinate and outspoken communities on social media.
Fortunately, away from the noise and distractions of social media, the teams actually building these ecosystems are eager to collaborate and push the collectively push the industry forward. d’Haussy remarked that the Solana Foundation was welcoming and receptive to working alongside teams from alternative ecosystems in the pursuit of progress.
“We were really warmly welcomed. I think the Solana ecosystem has showed us, you want to connect to the Solana ecosystem and bring more mindshare to the Solana ecosystem via your own chain? How can we help you?… The Solana Foundation has been extremely welcoming, connecting us to plenty of people. And the builders were also very welcoming.”
“Sometimes Twitter makes you think that this is all tribes and they look at each other from afar. But the reality is the real builders and the people which are in the industry long enough and for the long term, they are very friendly and they want to grow the cake for everyone.”
Additionally, d’Haussy asserted that “Solana is like Ethereum five years ago”, highlighting the energy and hunger shown by developers building innovative products. The CEO drew comparisons between the atmosphere of week’s earlier Token 2049 conference and Solana Breakpoint.
“We are just out of three days of Token 2049, which is much more salesy and marketing and towards trading activities, which is really the audience of DYDX. So, that was perfect, we had a blast over there. Suddenly, you wake up the next morning and you're going to Solana Breakpoint.”
“It's a bit of a shock for me because suddenly we are surrounded by devs. So, there is this kind of change of seasons overnight between the projects and the business development atmosphere of Token 2049 and here the business, the atmosphere of building here at Solana.”
Blockchain tribalism is a regrettable obstacle, but easily overcome. As evidenced by dYdX and the Solana, teams from different chains can always find ways to work together in a way that benefits both parties and further advances the space.

$HONEY , $MPLX , $CROWN Lead Solana Ecosystem Token Performance During Breakpoint
Which native tokens outperformed the market during Solana Breakpoint 2024?
Solana Breakpoint delivered a bounty of massive announcements not only for Solana, but also for a host of applications and projects building in the ecosystem.
However, market dynamics don’t always line up with protocol updates. Hype and speculation can push prices up ahead of the event, only to be met with disappointing price action when teams don’t deliver the news traders are hoping to hear.
On the other hand, projects that were ignored by speculative traders can enjoy solid price appreciation when they deliver unexpected announcements.
In the eyes of the market, who were Solana Breakpoint’s best and worst performers?
Solana Breakpoint Market Dynamics
To illustrate market dynamics during Breakpoint, analysts compiled and analyzed price data from 20 key projects in the ecosystem. Tokens were shortlisted from the following criteria:
In the industry’s top 1,000 tokens by market capitalization.
Made announcements, or participated in Breakpoint panels and debates.
If not presenting at the event, proven ecosystem OGs like Orca and Raydium were included.
Other than BONK Memecoins were excluded. BONK’s inclusion is due to its announcements and significant presence at the event.
Using Step Finance data, prices were pulled from Breakpoint’s opening and compared that with the price recorded at the closure of the event.
While the market anticipated big announcements from the likes of Jupiter and Sanctum, it was the projects that no one expected updates from who performed the best. $HONEY , $MPLX , and $CROWN outperformed the market, while most of the ecosystem remained largely unchanged.
Hivemapper, the company behind $HONEY , shared impressive growth statistics. The DePIN protocol has successfully mapped over 26% of the world’s road network and now sells mapping data to three of the ten largest mapmakers.
Metaplex, one of Solana’s longest-standing infrastructure providers, held a stealthy presentation in The Pod, one of Breakpoint’s smaller spaces. During the session, Metaplex teased the upcoming launch of the Metaplex Aura Network, a mysterious new addition to Metaplex’s product suite.
Finally, Photo Finish announced that its mobile app was approved for distribution on the Apple App Store. According to Photo Finish CEO, this makes the app the world’s first real-money horse racing mobile game approved by Apple.
However, Breakpoint is a relatively short event with plenty of other dynamics influencing price movements. For example, $CLOUD’s appears to have traded sideways during Breakpoint, but it needs to be said that the asset enjoyed an impressive surge both before and after the event.
Despite stale price action throughout Breakpoint, $CLOUD is up 67% on a weekly time frame and has been one of the Solana ecosystem’s best performers, based on Step Finance data.

Finally, Photo Finish announced that its mobile app was approved for distribution on the Apple App Store. According to Photo Finish CEO, this makes the app the world’s first real-money horse racing mobile game approved by Apple.
However, Breakpoint is a relatively short event with plenty of other dynamics influencing price movements. For example, $CLOUD’s appears to have traded sideways during Breakpoint, but it needs to be said that the asset enjoyed an impressive surge both before and after the event.
Despite stale price action throughout Breakpoint, $CLOUD is up 67% on a weekly time frame and has been one of the Solana ecosystem’s best performers, based on Step Finance data.

The bulls are in charge as markets pump 🐂📈
But can J Pow really stick that Goldilocks landing to secure that full-on bull market?
What you should know 👇
========================================
Bulls appear to be firmly in control as the market prices in the “Goldilocks” landing scenario following Wednesday's major rate cut announcement.
What’s the Scoop?
✂️ Fed Cuts: Wednesday, America’s Federal Reserve announced a 50 bps (0.5%) decrease to its benchmark short-term policy rate in the central bank’s first instance of monetary easing during the post-Covid era.
📊 Volatile Regime: While markets initially rallied on confirmation of the telegraphed Fed cuts, they gave back the gains headed into the U.S. close and finished out that first day red. Although the bullish impulse from Fed cuts didn’t transpire until after the close, the broad market S&P 500 opened 1.5% higher today, the index’s strongest overnight gain since 2022 and its largest gap up opening to new all-time highs in at least 35 years.
🌼 Achieving Goldilocks: High interest rates were tough on the economy, but they were seen as necessary to control the big inflation that hit in 2022. Now that inflation has slowed down a lot in recent months, the Fed can start easing up on its monetary policies. Despite some softening in the labor market, numbers aren't pointing to imminent disaster, and global central bankers remain supremely confident they can keep unemployment from rising too much without causing more inflation through carefully calculated interest rate cuts.
📢 Bankless Take: The best mix of conditions seems to be coming together, boosting economic optimism and giving the green light for bulls to push markets to new all-time highs. While investors will see tanking inflation data as bullish and shrug off deteriorating labor conditions in the weeks ahead thanks to renewed confidence in the Fed Put, an unexpected turn for the worse will swiftly give way to serious recession concerns.

🇺🇸 US lawmakers Tom Emmer and Patrick McHenry ask Gary Gensler to clarify the agency's position on crypto airdrops.
“As you know, the philosophy of crypto and blockchain technology is based on decentralization.”
"Yet the SEC's regulatory approach appears to make the goal of decentralization impossible to achieve."
“By prohibiting Americans from participating in aurdrops, the SEC is preventing American cryptocurrency users from fully realizing the benefits of blockchain technology.”
“The SEC’s approach during your tenure has only ensured that the next iteration of the internet will not be designed by Americans or with American values, which is not in the best interests of our constituents.”

🇨🇦 Canadian Bitcoin miner Cathedra Bitcoin completely changes strategy after seven years of mining BTC.
The company is stopping BTC mining to follow MicroStrategy's strategy: acquiring as much Bitcoin as possible on the open market.
Mining has not delivered enough value to shareholders over the past three years, executives say.
“Meanwhile, other listed companies have adopted an explicit policy of increasing bitcoin per share, including MicroStrategy, and have been rewarded by the stock markets.”
Bitcoin Treasuries data shows that the company currently holds 23 Bitcoin, worth $2 .5 million, making it the 45th largest corporate Bitcoin holder.
