Bitcoin might be moving sideways, but Jordi Visser says there is still faith in the underlying asset, as shown through ETF approvals and the Bitcoin network hashrate hitting new highs. Bitcoin could be in the middle of an unofficial initial coin offering (ICO) as OG holders rotate out and fresh blood scoops up the tokens, distributing the supply across a broader number of people, macro analyst and Wall Street old hand Jordi Visser says. In a Saturday episode of entrepreneur Anthony Pompliano’s podcast and a post on Substack, Visser said old coins that have been dormant for years are on the move, “Not all at once. Not in panic. But steadily,” and new investors are stepping in, “accumulating on dips.” “In the traditional world, this moment is called an IPO. It’s the moment when early believers cash out, when founders become wealthy, when venture capitalists return money to their limited partners,” he said. Read more -

Tokenized bank deposits lack the flexibility and technical features of stablecoins, making them an inferior product, according to Omid Malekan. Banks and financial institutions have started experimenting with tokenized bank deposits, bank balances recorded on a blockchain, but the technology is doomed to lose out to stablecoins, according to Omid Malekan, an adjunct professor at Columbia Business School. Overcollateralized stablecoin issuers, who must maintain 1:1 cash or short-term cash equivalent reserves to back their tokens, are safer from a liability perspective than the fractional reserve banks that would issue tokenized bank deposits, Malekan said. Stablecoins are also composable, meaning they can be transferred across the crypto ecosystem and used in various applications, unlike tokenized deposits, which are permissioned, have know-your-customer (KYC) controls, and have restricted functionality.

Broadcasting transactions before they are executed imposes a "hidden tax" on retail crypto users while alienating financial institutions. Maximal extractable value (MEV), the process of miners or validators reordering transactions in a block to extract profits, is preventing financial institutions from adopting decentralized finance (DeFi), which hurts retail users, according to Aditya Palepu, CEO of DEX Labs, the lead contributor to decentralized crypto derivatives exchange DerivaDEX. All electronically-traded markets suffer from maximal extractable value or similar issues inherent in the information asymmetry in ordering trading transaction data, Palepu told Cointelegraph. The solution is to prevent order flow data from being visible before execution through processing transactions in trusted execution environments, which handle transactions privately through a funded vault or some other mechanism, Palepu said. He added: Read more -

Stablecoins dominate 40% of crypto volume as emerging markets prioritize utility over ideology. Security must become invisible, not user homework. Opinion by: Louise Ivan, co-founder and CEO of Ryder Step aside, maximalists. Crypto isn’t the domain of early adopters and philosophically driven “hodlers” anymore. The demographics of crypto usage are shifting fast, with stablecoins, in particular, leading the charge. Forget about newcomers stacking sats. In Q3 2025, Tether’s USDt (USDT) and Circle’s USDC (USDC) collectively accounted for approximately 40% of the total crypto volume. This gargantuan figure is due, in part, to folks from emerging regions like Southeast Asia, Africa and Latin America wanting a better way to move their money. Read more -

Crypto debates DeFi forks while AI companies lock trillions of tokens into proprietary training runs, building permanent data set monopolies. The window closes fast. Opinion by: Ram Kumar, core contributor at OpenLedger The crypto industry spent a decade evangelizing decentralization. At the same time, AI companies assembled the most valuable monopolies since Standard Oil, and they’re data monopolies that make protocol dominance look trivial by comparison. The AI industry is expected to generate over $300 billion in revenue by 2025, primarily through training models on trillions of tokens scraped from researchers, writers and domain experts. Bitcoin maxis fought block size wars. Ethereum debated MEV extraction. Meanwhile, OpenAI, Google and Anthropic scraped the entire corpus of human knowledge, locked it inside proprietary training runs and built moats that no amount of capital or talent can overcome.
