there’s been so much narratives cooking behind the scenes. ik, the whole crypto TL has been silence and the market has been ranging between bulls and bears. imo, there’s likely going to be more bear move before we hit a necessary run in most altcoins. till then, builders keep building. those who ship faster will enjoy the bull market perks the most.

Variational just raised another $50M There’s so much bullish sentiments and suddenly everyone on CT is now bullish. RWA and TradFi market seem to be the current meta. It’s not late to farm variational.
We’ve raised $50M led by @dragonfly_xyz to go all in on RWAs and bring TradFi liquidity on-chain. Today, we're launching Phase 1 of our RWA rollout to stress-test our infrastructure before bringing 100 TradFi markets on-chain this summer.

Just recently I posted about how you can trade delta neutral using Perps dex and xStocks holding. xStocks points your favourite perp dex points (if stocks are listed) as I've said, extended and hotstuff stays at the top of my list for that. but yeah, @tradehotstuff just introduced Hotstuff invest. which makes all my points valid and also mean I might be fully aligned with hotstuff. bullish
Introducing Hotstuff Invest 24/7 spot markets for Tokenized Stocks, ETFs & Crypto, powered by @xstocksFi Built on a Hybrid RFQ order-book model with @bebop_dex as our 1st RFQ venue and more venues being integrated over time The $147T equity market is coming on-chain.

If crypto market won't move, stocks or commodity will move. The era of jumping towards different platform or exchange just to trade various market has ended. Majority of perp dex are now having traditional assets tradable. My best choices currently are Extended and @tradehotstuff. Good UI from both platforms.

Just incase you are unaware, TradFi markets currently have the same trading fee structure as crypto markets on extended atm. TradFi Markets currently supported on @extendedapp >>> FX - EUR, USDJPY Commodities - XAU (Gold), XAG (Silver), XCU (Copper), XPT (Platinum), NATGAS (US Natural Gas), XBR (Brent Crude Oil), WTI (WTI Crude Oil) Indices/ETFs: SPX (S&P 500), NDX (Nasdaq-100), EWY (MSCI South Korea ETF) Equities: GOOG, NVDA, AMZN, TSLA, AMD, MSTR, COIN, HOOD, INTC, PLTR, AAPL, CRCL, MU, MSFT, SNDK, META, BABA For those looking for ways to be delta neutral on Xstocks holding or positions. You can focus on Extended Tradfi Market (Commodities and Equities to be precise). That should do the margic. You win in 2 ways.
When it comes to unified margin and Tradfi integrations, Extended seem to be cooking. They just introduced multi asset collateral with native lending - most perp platforms are yet to build this into their ecosystem. And yeah, Extended still has more coming soon, I believe it will be surprising. According to the released roadmap - Phase 2 will be much broader universe of crypto and TradFi markets, spot trading, and an open lending protocol. Phase 3 will be additional products beyond perps, spot, and lending. This means in the future, a single account on extended will span towards perpetuals, spot, lending, yield-bearing products, and additional products. Bullish.

Multi-Asset Collateral is now live on Extended From today, wBTC and ETH are accepted as collateral alongside USDC and XVS (Extended yield-bearing collateral). EURC and USDT are coming soon. How it works The system operates on a native money market, with the vault acting as the primary lender. When trading losses push your USDC balance negative and that deficit is covered by non-stablecoin collateral, you are borrowing USDC. Borrowing rates depend on two factors: overall vault utilisation and utilisation against each specific collateral asset. For example, if demand to borrow USDC against ETH is lower than against BTC, borrowing against ETH will be cheaper. When a user holds multiple collateral assets, borrowing is automatically allocated starting with the lowest-rate asset and moving upward, minimising the effective cost with no manual input required. We are not aware of this being implemented anywhere else in DeFi. Example. User is down $175K on a perp and borrowing $175K USDC against a mixed book: $50K USDT @ 1% - $500 $50K ETH @ 5% - $2,500 $75K BTC @ 10% - $7,500 Total annualised interest: $10,500. Effective rate: ~6%. Borrowing the same amount entirely against BTC would cost $17,500 annually, or 67% more. What this means for Extended Vault The vault is the primary lender for the entire system. All interest paid by USDC borrowers flows to vault depositors as Extra Yield, on top of the trading fees already distributed. This creates a second, structurally independent yield stream for XVS holders. The vault earns by serving as the backbone of the margin system.

Looks like cascade has been opening mainnet beta to lots of people on the waitlist. Just incase you are unaware. You can confirm if you already have access. To be fair, @cascade_xyz is still early and has potential, if you have been wondering on how to position. This is probably a good chance.

The case of hantavirus might be more serious than we are all thinking. and yeah most of this virus are powerful humans propagating this agendas. The first outbreak discovery is always a distraction for them to spread them else where. All this viruses have long been created before the proper outbreak. I really don’t want to imagine another outbreak.

Interesting .... XO Market raised $6M in their recent seed round which includes Coinbase as an investor. Platform currently in Beta, which means it's early. XO Market concept is fascinating to me, will explore more on this.
Nine months ago XO was a thesis: the biggest platforms decide which markets exist, liquidity is killing trades, and resolution is broken. We thought we could fix all three. Given we just completed our $6M seed round, we thought now is a better time than any to reflect on where we started, what's happening right now, and a sneak peak at our roadmap for the future.

Base is currently hinting a whole lot of stuffs rn. And I think I’ll rather pay more attention to it. Top ecosystem/Protocols I’m more interested in right now. > Fluent > Base > Neobanks Ecosystem > Still looking more into ARC Sometimes, it’s not a bad things looking other ways
