Most modern business banking simply interfaces on top of other banks' APIs, which means it inherits every limitation of the old stack. Smart accounts let businesses move past it entirely. “We believe Solana will become the home of global finance, and we believe that global finance will run on smart accounts.” @deni_ersht on why @altitude runs business finance onchain.

Tokenization is no longer a niche experiment. It is rapidly becoming a serious arena in which institutions compete to lead one of the largest new asset categories and where capital allocators pursue meaningfully better returns. 🧵👇

The launch of @upshift_fi Clear is huge DeFi requires instant settlement but TradFi RWA redemptions occur infrequently Upshift Clear bridges that gap enabling great RWAs to meet the requirements of DeFi and the processes of TradFi Watch for the continued rollout of Clear and reach out to the team if you want Clear integration for your Protocol or Asset theblock.co/post/401285/upsh…
Excited to announce @Morpho as a launch partner for Upshift Clear, alongside @SuperstateInc. Upshift Clear is an instant redemption facility for RWAs, starting with USCC. Idle USDC in Clear vaults is routed into Morpho markets between redemption events. Clear LPs earn two yield sources: redemption fees from instant RWA exits, plus onchain lending yield from Morpho.

It was never just about the cards… It was about who you shared them with It was about the moments It was about the feeling It was about being a kid It was about who you became It was about what you held onto It was about the memories you made Today we launch Trove to bring that feeling back.

Nobody talks about this, but trading cards are one of the largest hobby markets on the planet. Pokémon alone has outsold every video game franchise in history — by card revenue. Sports cards never lost their audience. They just never got a great digital home. That changes today. @Trovexyz lets you rip sports and TCG packs from your phone. Not browse. Not bid. Rip. The most addictive moment in the hobby, rebuilt for your screen. We've backed a lot of founders. The ones who win in consumer are almost never the ones who "identified the opportunity." They're the ones who couldn't imagine doing anything else. @mkatz0630 is that founder. 2x @EniacVC-backed. A collector long before he was a builder. He didn't study this market — he grew up in it. That's not a detail. That's the whole thesis. The best consumer companies aren't built by people chasing TAM. They're built by people who are a little obsessed. Mike is a little obsessed. And Trove is live today at @Trovexyz.

After over 2 years of blood, sweat and sacrifice… Mainnet is imminent. We have spent an inhumane amount of hours building what we believe to be not only the most complete trading venue in the world... But also infrastructure that will serve as the blueprint for the largest technological advancement for financial products in recent history. We have come along way since the birth of perpetual contracts, but we are still a considerable distance away from offering an environment that real size is willing to deploy on In a game of never ending exchanges, the question we have repeatedly asked ourselves is "why would people switch?" The answer for us is simple, we offer that environment. For the longest time the debate has been between globally distributed, or fast… And although you absolutely need both, this misses the point entirely. The heart of an exchange is the risk engine. Where real people trade real money, you must offer the most efficient venue for protecting and enabling capital. BULK approaches risk management like a tradfi clearing house - precise and robust. Our key differentiator is SPAN style portfolio margining, where every asset has a correlation that adjusts required margin dynamically based on market conditions. A result of this is positions hedge each other resulting in lower margin requirements. Leading CEXs and DEXs don’t offer anything close to this, but instead they view your portfolio on a per position basis, which puts capital at risk. For over 3 decades SPAN has been the gold standard for futures and we are brining it on chain. Liquidations are like precise surgeries where it’s an optimisation being run in realtime. During market momentum bulk removes positions that don’t correlate and reduces your protfolio risk, instead of liquidating an entire position To build an engine like this is incredibly expensive when it comes to compute, which is why no L1 today is able to offer the same. There has never been a better environment for someone to disrupt this space and offer an experience that the industry so desperately needs Competing between ourselves in crypto is too short sighted, as the true TAM for this is EVERYTHING The best thing about this, is that because we are a complete stack, every market participant from traders and hedge funds to validators and market makers, get to become part of the network and benefit in the growth of it. As an ecosystem, we have repeatedly told each other not to let the traditional giants come and take everything we have worked so hard to build… This is our chance to see that reality. We are not only committed, but obsessed with building something truly capable of advancing modern finance on a global scale One Exchange. Infinite Markets.
