📅 It has been 262 days since Solana suffered a major outage.

According to the network's incident history tracker, the last major outage occurred on February 6 this year and lasted five hours.

Protos has compiled a table detailing this outage and all other Solana outages since its launch.

Will Ethereum remain institutions' top choice?

jonahrobrts breaks down the blockchain competition for TradFi's attention 🤼‍♂️

========================================

Disruption. Digitization. Financial inclusion. Future-proofing.

What do all of these oft-repeated buzzwords have in common? They’ve 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 isn’t focused on why firms are building onchain. Instead, we are focusing on where these funds are choosing to build.

----------------------------

What’s Happening on Ethereum?
Ethereum is the world’s 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 company’s 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 Ethereum’s 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. Ethereum’s widespread use means that staying within the EVM ecosystem—whether through Ethereum or Layer 2 solutions—remains 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 today’s demands but also anticipate the needs of tomorrow. Ethereum is well-positioned for now, but staying on top will require constant evolution.

🚨 Global liquidity is increasing, meaning that major central banks are starting to inject money into the global financial system.

👉 This influx of liquidity is important because it increases interest in risky assets, notably #Bitcoin and #cryptomonnaies .

👉 Historically, when there is an increase in overall liquidity, investors tend to place their money in more volatile assets, such as #Bitcoin .

👉 As in 2013, 2017 and 2020, an increase in overall liquidity coincided with the #BullRuns .

It is clear that global liquidity levels play a crucial role. Sure, there are 4-year cycles related to halving and elections, but the market is primarily driven by global liquidity.

It’s all connected. 🔗

💰 Halving + Elections + Rising Global Liquidity = BullRun. 🚀

How to build confidence to hold

We've all seen $1 ,000,000+ PNL screenshots

The truth is most traders would never hold long enough to reach that level

The secret isn't just about getting in early, it's about the ability to separate conviction from gamble

Ask yourself:
- Is volume excessively high?
- Is there consistent buy pressure on dips?
- Is the community forming a cult?
- Does it have a strong narrative?
- Are you seeing wallets constantly ape $10k +?
- Are you seeing it being pushed in multiple different groups?
- Is it all over your twitter feed?

If the answer is yes to all these questions, then treat this play with conviction. Hold your position until you see a major break of structure on the 1-4h timeframes

Conviction comes from recognizing momentum

Jupiter, a leading decentralized exchange (DEX) on Solana, made a series of major announcements today at Solana Breakpoint 2024, the Solana ecosystem's largest annual conference. These updates include the acquisition of SolanaFM, the second-largest explorer on Solana, and Coinhall, the leading aggregator across Cosmos.

Co-founder Siong delivered a keynote address outlining the ambitious roadmap ahead for Jupiter.

Perps V2 is a significant upgrade from its predecessor, offering a richer feature set, competitive fees, and unmatched reliability. This new version introduces limit orders, a revamped Doves oracle for enhanced pricing accuracy, and gasless transactions, ensuring a seamless and cost-effective trading experience.

With Perps V2, traders can benefit from the convenience of limit orders, the reliability of the Dove oracle, and the efficiency of gasless transactions, all backed by $600 million in JLP liquidity. This combination makes Solana the most compelling platform for perpetual contracts.

Jupiter Mobile
Jupiter Mobile is poised to revolutionize how people interact with Solana by offering a frictionless and intuitive user experience. It simplifies the onboarding process, making Solana accessible to everyone regardless of their technical expertise. Users can easily connect their existing wallets or use popular payment methods like Apple Pay, Google Pay, or credit cards. Additionally, Jupiter Mobile eliminates the need for complex seed phrases, making it easy for new users to get started.

The platform also offers zero platform fees, ensuring that users can enjoy cost-effective transactions without worrying about hidden charges. With its 1-tap swap feature, users can effortlessly swap tokens with just a single click, streamlining the trading process.

Ape Pro: Taking on Pump.fun
Jupiter is now making moves to capture the meme coin market by taking on the popular Pump.fun, a no-code meme coin creation platform.

Ape Pro, a massive upgrade to the existing Ape platform, is set to make meme coins fun again on Solana. It will offer a powerful, mobile-friendly trading suite that supports social logins and an easy-to-use token creation experience.

Ape Pro stands out from its competitors, such as Pump.fun, by offering lower trading fees, a seamless mobile experience, faster transactions with Google login, and a robust token creation process. With a competitive 0.5% trading fee, Ape Pro provides a cost-effective solution for traders. Its mobile optimization ensures a smooth and efficient experience on the go, while Google login simplifies the onboarding process, eliminating the need for complex seed phrases. Additionally, Ape Mint, a feature within Ape Pro, allows users to easily mint new tokens, lock liquidity for project credibility, and earn perpetual swap fees, creating a sustainable revenue stream and combatting the current PVP model in the meme coin ecosystem.

Acquisitions Signal Growth and Ambition
Jupiter's acquisition of SolanaFM, a critical infrastructure provider for the Solana ecosystem, underscores the company's commitment to strengthening it. This move will enable Jupiter to leverage SolanaFM's world-class data infrastructure to enhance its platform further.

🚨 BlackRock recently adjusted its custody agreement for its spot ETF #Bitcoin with Coinbase, aiming to improve withdrawal times.

One of the major points of this amendment is the requirement for Coinbase to process withdrawals from #Bitcoin to a public address within 12 hours of receiving instructions.

This means that as soon as an ETF holder wants to withdraw their #Bitcoin , Coinbase, as the custodian, will have to execute this transaction within a relatively short period of time.

💬 "Previous Bitcoin bullruns peaked between October and March, and we expect a major breakout in Q4 2024."

“We expect $5 billion to $8 billion to come back into the crypto space.”

Markus Thielen, manager at 10x Research.

Analysts agree on a range of catalysts fueling Bitcoin's momentum:

🔹️ The Federal Reserve's decision to cut interest rates by 0.50%, which weakened the US dollar.

🔹️ US fiscal debt reaching $35 trillion and increasing by $1 trillion every 100 days.

🔹️ Political developments with Kamala Harris expressing support for digital assets.

🔹️ Bitcoin ETF flows remained positive, with total inflows of $17 billion.

🔹️ The stability of BTC miners after the halving.

#Bitcoin

It works with any #altcoin when they announced direction 40k.

👉 The majority reacts like this: "I'll wait until it goes up to 50k to buy."

👉 At 50,000: "Finally, I'll wait for 40k."

And even if the price had gone down to 40k, they still wouldn't have bought.

Now that the market is showing some signs of recovery, they are becoming euphoric and are buying at levels 2-3 times higher than a few weeks ago.

And when we talk about taking advantage of the corrections to reload, these same people insult us in the comments.

They will end up being our "exit liquidity", we will sell them our tokens in a few months. 😈

Congratulations to those who kept a cool head and recharged.

Patients will be rewarded with the liquidity of the impatient.

🚨 A major security issue in Bitcoin Core would affect 17% of the network which could be exposed to a denial of service attack.

All software prior to Bitcoin Core version 24.0.1 may be at risk.

Although very serious, few known exploits of this bug exist as it is quite costly.

However, this is a security flaw that could be exploited by an extremely wealthy, powerful, or sophisticated actor, such as a nation, that wanted to disrupt Bitcoin operations for non-financial reasons

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.

🎞️ An intimate documentary about Vitalik Buterin and Ethereum begins streaming onchain.

“Vitalik: An Ethereum Story” is a documentary that goes back in time to Buterin’s childhood and tells through new interviews and archival footage why and how he helped build and launch Ethereum.

The film will be available for streaming and onchain on ethereumfilm.xyz for 30 days and aims to be available on major streaming platforms in 2025.

In July 2021, the project achieved the largest crowdfund in documentary history with 1,036 ETH raised.

The film was released in theaters in 23 countries.

In the documentary, we see Vitalik opening up to intimate statements and declaring:
“My biggest fear is a bull market. If a bull market happens, then all this speculation comes back. There’s value in being quiet, and there’s value in not being loud until you have something worth being loud about.”

Will rate cuts restart crypto's bull run? 🐂

Here's what could happen next 👇
========================================

In 2022, the Fed raised interest rates to tackle high inflation, which made borrowing more expensive and led to falling asset prices, resulting in a bear market. However, with lower interest rates, many expect monetary easing that could gently guide the global economy into a "Soft Landing."

If inflation doesn’t spike again and rate cuts help keep unemployment stable, central bankers could achieve something incredible—removing major economic uncertainties and delivering a level of global economic stability we haven’t seen in decades!

Although the Fed's latest economic projections seem to favor more future rate cuts, they also reflect how uncertain things are, with inflation forecasts being lowered, flat GDP estimates, and non-trivial upticks in unemployment expectations.

The greatest economic risk has shifted from higher inflation to falling employment, as shown by the decision to cut rates. Even though Federal Reserve members and other central bankers are confident they can manage these risks with further rate cuts, any continued economic decline could rapidly devolve into serious recession concerns.

Global bond yields that had been increasing since Tuesday dropped only slightly after the rate cuts were confirmed, suggesting the market had already factored this in with earlier moves downwards since July. While Bitcoin briefly jumped about 2% right after the rate cut news, markets started selling off soon after, erasing those gains before the day ended.

While the initial excitement around the rate cuts was clear, investors are now carefully watching how the economy reacts to these changes, with hopes pinned on a smooth transition but wary of potential bumps ahead.

Whether this will truly ignite the next crypto bull market or trigger deeper recession concerns remains to be seen as the balancing act between inflation, employment, and growth continues to unfold.

Sentiment is down, and critics have been quick to point out ETH's underperformance against SOL while largely attributing this to a perceived loss of mindshare and users to L2s.

This narrative has sparked a crucial debate: Are L2s Ethereum?

arjunnchand
brings the analysis...

========================================

🤔 Symbiotic or Separatist?
L2s have been a core component of Ethereum's rollup-centric roadmap from the very beginning. They were envisioned as extensions (technical and cultural) of Ethereum, designed to expand its capabilities and attract a broader user base.

At their core, L2s are deeply linked with Ethereum. They share its DNA — relying on ETH as the currency, benefitting from Ethereum's security blanket, and utilizing it for data storage and settlement. It's like a startup leveraging its parent company's infrastructure and brand recognition, a win-win for both.

The symbiotic relationship between L2s and Ethereum is undeniable. L2s thrive on Ethereum's infrastructure and security, while Ethereum benefits from the increased activity and increased demand for ETH, making it a better store of value.

By offering lower fees and faster transaction times, L2s have made it easier for developers to build different types of applications. Look at the explosion of memecoins on Base or the rise of SocialFi platforms like Farcaster creating new markets for users.

Beyond that, L2s are becoming major hubs for DeFi activity, and ETH, the asset, is at the heart of this ecosystem. Look at the numbers:
arbitrum
,
Optimism
,
@base
— these chains are dominated by ETH-related assets.

🧛‍♂️ Vampire attack?
However, one of the primary arguments against the rollup-centric approach to scaling Ethereum is the assumption that L2s may not continue to rely on Ethereum. Sure, L2s and Ethereum seem like a happy family now. But what if L2s build their own empires and ditch Ethereum altogether? No more relying on Ethereum for security, no more ETH as gas, not even needing Ethereum's block space.

This "L2s go rogue" fear is a legitimate concern. Technically, they could build independent ecosystems with their own validators as they would then be able to own the entire modular blockchain stack. So, is this the future – a messy breakup between L2s and Ethereum? Not necessarily.

We can all agree that there are perhaps a few too many L2s. Too many copycats. Too little differentiation. It's like a thousand startups chasing the same market, all promising the same thing. This isn't healthy.

What we need are L2s that matter. L2s that offer something unique, something that sets them apart. Security, app diversity, GTM strategy — these are the areas where we need to see real innovation.

But we must be wary of ‘echo chambers’. These zones of chains should not become isolated universes. A healthy L2 ecosystem is one where chains work together, not in isolation. We need bridges, not moats.

We need collaboration. We need communication. We need education. We need incentives. We need to build shared infrastructure and standards that foster seamless connectivity across L2s. Only then can we truly win together.

💭 Closing Thoughts
You can say that L2s aren’t Ethereum. You can argue L2s aren’t even extensions of Ethereum. But you cannot deny the fact that L2s enhance the utility of Ethereum and ETH.

The "L2s vs. Ethereum" debate is a false dichotomy. This isn't a zero-sum game. Ultimately, Ethereum and L2s are in this together. Let's build a future where Ethereum and L2s thrive as a symbiotic whole, and push the crypto ecosystem forward.

Dawn Internet a decentralized wireless network on Solana, hits major milestone with over 500,000 verified users on its Validator Extension.

After the euphoric highs of Q2, fear and doubt have crept back into crypto markets in recent months.

Amidst the uncertainty Solana’s DeFi ecosystem has shed layers of TVL (Total Value Locked), with the majority of protocol’s losing between 13-18% in USD value on a monthly time frame.

However, despite the market-wide pullback, outperformers have emerged. Which protocols created a liquidity vacuum and expanded their TVL despite ailing markets?

NX FINANCE, LULO LEAD MONTHLY TVL GROWTH
Solana’s DeFi scene has enjoyed newfound momentum and attention throughout 2024. However, the last 30 days indicate a charge in sentiment, with the bulk of Solana protocols suffering significant drops in their TVL.

Despite challenging conditions, several outliers have outperformed the wider market and witnessed continued growth in the face of adversity.

Lending aggregator NX Finance led the charge, enjoying consistent growth in the face of difficult markets. Courtesy of its incentivized rewards program, NX Finance TVL rose 65% in the last 30 days, leading Solana’s top 50 DeFi applications by TVL.

Meanwhile, fellow lending aggregator Lulo Finance continued to rise through the ranks, securing over $30M in Directed Liquidity (DL). With over 92% of its DL, a similar metric similar to TVL, held in stablecoins, Lulo-managed value has increased by 32.27% in the last 30 days.

At first glance, DeFiLlama data suggests that Jupiter’s TVL has risen by 47.22% in the last 30 days. However, this increase is due to the popular analytics platform integrating $jupSOL into Jupiter’s total TVL on August 16, adding approximately $300M worth of funds to the platform.

According to Step Finance data, $jupSOL supply has risen 0.36% in the last 30 days. Coupled with the 2.22% decline in Jupiter perpetual TVL in the same time period, it can be concluded that Jupiter’s total TVL has remained relatively stable in the face of challenging market conditions.

Kamino TVL Climbs Despite Falling Prices
Kamino Finance has been one of Solana DeFi’s most solid performers throughout Q3’s volatility. While lending aggregators like NX Finance and Lulo predominantly hold stablecoins, making them more resilient to market downturn, Kamino accepts deposits from a wider range of more volatile assets.

Despite falling asset prices across the industry, Kamino has emerged as one of Solana’s standout DeFi protocols.

While $SOL price has dropped over 36% since its March 18 high of $202 , Kamino TVL has increased by 12% in USD terms. Denominated in SOL, Kamino TVL has risen by 76% in the same time frame.

JUPITER DOMINATES PERPETUAL TVL ACROSS THE INDUSTRY
Jupiter’s perpetual DEX platform shows no sign of relinquishing its iron grip on derivatives dominance. One of Solana’s largest DeFi protocols, Jupiter’s perpetual DEX is currently the largest onchain derivatives market in the crypto industry.

Boasting over $657M in TVL, Jupiter dominates perpetual market share. According to DeFiLlama data, the Solana-based platform currently accounts for 18.82% of onchain derivatives TVL across the industry.

While Jupiter boasts the highest TVL across all perpetual DEXes, its closest rival still witnesses higher trading volumes. During August, Hyperliquid handled $34 .6B in trading volume compared to Jupiter’s $15 .1B. It’s worth noting that Hyperliquid’s high volume could attributed to its points program, which is expected to influence token allocations ahead of the protocol’s upcoming airdrop

Prices may be down, but Grayscale's making bull market bets if you know where to look.

These are the assets that have caught the attention of Crypto's Wall Street whisperer 👇

========================================

When Grayscale announces a new Trust for a particular asset, the market often reacts with a mix of excitement and skepticism.

It's a bit like a double-edged sword: a signal of saturation for some and a beacon of hope for others.

Some might interpret the launch as a sign that the market for that asset is reaching saturation or at least limited upside potential in crypto terms.

On the one hand, it’s a stamp of approval from a major player in the crypto space. It can lend legitimacy to the asset, potentially attracting institutional investors, and, at the very least, boost media coverage.

Grayscale has been adding new investment products at a faster clip, showcasing their conviction that we’re in the middle innings of a crypto bull market fueled by a grand slam of bullish signals: #Bitcoin ETF inflows, the long-awaited $ETH ETF launch, increasing stablecoin adoption, and steady growth in TVL across DeFi.

As a quiet giant in the industry, investors continue to watch what Grayscale is backing and what that says about their impressions of which direction the industry is headed. What assets have caught their attention lately? Let's find out. 👇

----------------------------------------------------------

Grayscale Decentralized AI Fund (FIL, NEAR, RNDR, LPT, TAO)

Grayscale Bittensor Trust (TAO)
Bittensor envisions a world where AI isn't a tool in the hands of a few corporations but a resource democratized for all. It aims to create an "Internet of AI" where everyone can contribute and benefit from AI models. $TAO incentivizes participants to contribute to the network by providing rewards for tasks like validating models and running AI computations.

As the AI race among big tech companies heats up, Grayscale believes that Bittensor offers a compelling alternative approach towards AI development, one that encourages a wider range of participants and ideas.

Grayscale SUI Trust (SUI)
$Sui boasts a novel blockchain design that prioritizes scalability and user experience. It allows for parallel processing, tackling multiple transactions simultaneously.
SuiNetwork
's competitive edge comes down to its custom-built programming language, Sui Move, which streamlines smart contract development and execution.

As the need for blockspace and faster execution in crypto increases, Grayscale believes that Sui opens the door to a new wave of decentralized applications that were previously limited by existing blockchain infrastructure.

The Grayscale Effect
Overall, the impact of a Grayscale Trust launch is highly subjective to the specific asset. By no means does it signify that the asset is destined for greatness. Take the Grayscale Decentraland Trust (MANA), for instance.

The key takeaway is that Grayscale's bullish outlook on crypto is evident in its recent product launches. They believe we're currently in a bull market and are positioning themselves accordingly.

💸 Tether invests $100 million in the leading agricultural company Adecoagro 🧑‍🌾

Tether acquires a 9.8% stake in Latin American agricultural giant Adecoagro for $100 million to diversify its investments in the agriculture and food sectors

Adecoagro is a major milk producer in Argentina and manages over 193,000 hectares of sugarcane crops in Brazil, producing refined sugar and ethanol.

We are 180 days into a correction since we made an ATH in Bitcoin and market sentiment is worse than when BTC was at 15K.

Ethereum has lost nearly $250 billion in market cap over the summer, even with ETFs coming to market.

And what happened?

> Massive exits and sales by Grayscale.
> Massive MT.GOX distributions.
> Mass distributions from the United States.
> Germany selling +50,000 BTC.

And what is to come?

> US interest rate cuts.
> Gradual increase in global liquidity.
> United States elections.
> FTX Refunds (+$16B).

And all this with stablecoins reaching all-time highs.

Is this the end? Are we all going to die?

I don't believe it.

For me nothing has changed.

Nobody said the bull market was going to be easy.

The best, for me, is yet to come.

You already know what happened next, the times when the feeling was as shattered and terrifying as the one we are experiencing now.

The difficult moments are what separate babies with poop on their butts from legends.

Everyone is very pro, everyone is very cocky, very gangster and very brave until it is time to buy the dip when at all hours they say that we are going to visit lower areas and everyone is terrified and with their balls in their throat.

We've all heard "If you come down to X area I'm going to put my house in your house" then they come down and shit their pants and don't buy.

It seems like a meme, but it is not.

There is something that will never change.

> The vast majority of people will sell out of fear.
> The vast majority of people will buy out of euphoria.

And it is certainly the fastest way to lose money in this market.

Sorry, I didn't make up the rules of the game.

The road will be long and there will be monsters and corpses along the way, just try not to make it yours.

The bull market is not over.

They just want to steal your magic internet coins so that when they spend billions on marketing, they can buy them back at an exorbitant price.

Nothing has changed.

Patience, conviction, buy the dip & chill 🏝️
