RWA looping is going to be the biggest trend in 2026. I wouldn't be surprised if RWAs single handedly bring DeFi out of the gutter here. Proud to support 3F with what they're building, big things ahead 🫑

We are excited to announce that @3f_xyz has raised $4 million in seed funding led by @Maven11Capital, with participation from @FPrimeCapital, @MetalayerVC, @GSR_io, Susquehanna Crypto, @Gate_Ventures and others. 3F is building the onchain infrastructure that unlocks leveraged exposure to tokenized real-world assets.

Bringing RWAs onchain through lending markets seems like the obvious next step for onchain finance, but it comes with a million nuances and blockers. @sonyasunkim and @3f_romeo just raised $4M for @3f_xyz to bridge the gap between defi primititves and institutions. And of course, it's built on @Morpho πŸ’™

"If your users disappear the moment incentives end, you never had users. You had mercenaries." @mickey_graham (@metalayervc) moderated a sharp panel on airdrops and incentives at InnovateDenver with @AyeshKiani (@monarq_mgmt), @Vir_Anand (@KronosResearch), @mkriak (@ConsensysMesh), and @danmon_ (@wintermute_t). The room debated what actually works, what's broken, and what comes next.

Liquidity is the real bottleneck for RWA adoption in onchain finance. Excited to be powering a new facility alongside @multiliquid_xyz designed to unlock that constraint.
1/ Today marks a major milestone for Multiliquid. Together with @metalayervc, we’ve launched an institutional liquidity facility on @solana, enabling instant redemptions of tokenized real-world assets.

A blockchain-enabled, 24/7 NYSE isn’t just about extended trading hours. It materially disrupts a U.S. equity market structure designed in the 1970s by completely transforming large portions of the post-trade ecosystem. This will quietly become one of the largest consequences of mass market crypto adoption over the next few years. theblock.co/post/386123/nyse…
