BTC vs Gold in 2025: Which One Deserves Your Next Trade?#btcvsgold Quick take: Gold is closing 2025 near record levels on persistent rate‑cut expectations and haven demand (CNBC; GoldPrice.org), while Bitcoin printed a fresh ATH before a ~30–36% mid‑cycle drawdown—a move that remains historically normal for BTC volatility (Coin Insider; CNBC). Why Did Gold Surge While Bitcoin Stumbled—Did Haven Demand Beat Halving Hype? Gold’s “best year in decades”: Spot gold repeatedly set new records, trading around $4,200/oz into December after an October peak near $4,381 (CNBC; GoldPrice.org). The driver? Falling-yield expectations and risk aversion that favor non‑yielding assets.BTC’s roller coaster: Bitcoin hit ~$126K in early October before sliding toward the $80–93K range—behavior consistent with past cycles (Coin Insider; CNBC).Net result: By late Q4, gold led major assets, while BTC finished flat‑to‑down YTD in several measures—a sharp inversion of the usual “digital gold” story (Analytics Insight; 24/7 Wall St.). Is ‘Digital Gold’ Broken—or Just Different? What the 2025 Data Says Correlation decoupled: The BTC–gold relationship oscillated wildly in 2025, underscoring distinct risk profiles: gold = crisis hedge; BTC = high‑beta, liquidity‑sensitive asset (see live price drivers in CNBC’s metals coverage and BTC cycle context in CNBC’s drawdown analysis).Practical takeaway: Treat gold as capital preservation and BTC as capital multiplication—different roles, different timing (Analytics Insight; 24/7 Wall St.). Did Central Banks Pick a Side? (Hint: They Bought Gold—A Lot.) Official buying spree: Central banks added ~53 tonnes in October alone, capping a year of robust net purchases (Money Metals; Kitco).WGC confirms breadth: October’s buying remained strategic rather than opportunistic, led by Poland, Brazil, Kazakhstan, China, Turkey and others (The Hindu BusinessLine; Kitco).Why it matters: Reserve accumulation reinforces gold’s official role—no major central bank holds BTC in reserves at a similar scale (compare the official tone in Money Metals and Kitco). What About Institutional BTC? Did ETFs Help or Hurt in Q4? Record outflows, then a turn: November saw record BTC ETF outflows (~$3.79B), concentrated in IBIT and FBTC (24/7 Wall St.; CoinTelegraph).Flows resumed: Early December logged a five‑day inflow streak as BTC stabilized near $93K, showing how regulated rails now anchor liquidity and sentiment (Invezz; CoinTelegraph).Structural shift: The ETF era is maturing BTC’s market structure—tighter spreads, lower realized volatility, and price discovery that now reacts to daily flow streaks (Invezz). Halving + Macro in 2025–2026: Does Scarcity Still Drive BTC—or Do Rates Drive Everything? Halving backdrop: The April 2024 halving reduced block rewards to 3.125 BTC, historically a bullish catalyst; however, 2025 price action appears more macro-sensitive than supply-driven alone (cycle context in CNBC).Forward views: Forecasts for 2026 span $150K–$250K depending on ETF demand, liquidity, and key technical levels—manage expectations and position sizing accordingly (24/7 Wall St.; flow turn noted by Invezz). 2026 Scenarios: If Rates Fall and Geopolitics Stay Hot, Does Gold Keep Winning?

I’ve noticed the same! Seeing $ICP hit $1B+ volume at just $5–$7 is wild compared to 2021 levels. Feels like whales are loading up quietly for the long game. I’m holding my ICP bags tight—this could be the calm before a big move. 🚀 What’s your take?

Something is very strange this year with $ICP. ⚠️👀
Because if you look at past year charts, you'll see that $ICP volumes haven't crossed $1B in many years. In 2021, when $ICP was at $72, its 24-hour volumes were around a billion dollars. ☄️♾️
We've seen $1B++ volumes this year at ~$5-$7. What I think is that whales have accumulated ICP for the long term, so don't fade your ICP bags because we are here to stay.🌊🚀
Red market ≠ broken trend! BTC, ETH, SOL, XRP all dipping together screams liquidity grab, not collapse. Smart money buys at demand zones—BTC 88.5K, ETH 2.9K, SOL 132. Corrections are healthy. Are you accumulating or waiting for confirmation?

Market is red, but this is NOT the time to panic.
All major coins like $BTC, $ETH, $SOL, $ZEC, and $XRP are down together, and that tells us one simple thing — this is a liquidity move, not the end of the trend.

Big players always shake the market to fill shorts and collect liquidity from both sides. They push price down to grab long liquidations, then reverse it again. This is how the game works.
Weak hands panic.
Smart money accumulates.

Next Key Support Levels to Watch:
$BTC 88,500 – 87,200
$ETH 2,900 – 2,780
$SOL 132 – 126

These are strong demand zones where buyers usually step in.
Remember this clearly:
Markets do not move in straight lines. Corrections are healthy.
If you panic now, you sell at the bottom.
If you stay calm, you position yourself for the next push up.
Trend is not broken. Structure is not broken. This is just a reset move.
Stay sharp. Stay patient. Opportunities are being created right now.

WINDSOR DOCTRINE: THE NIGHT EUROPE CHANGED

A royal banquet just rewrote the global security order.

King Charles, standing beside Germany’s President Steinmeier at the first German state visit in 27 years, declared what no British monarch has said in generations:

“The United Kingdom and Germany together stand with Ukraine and bolster Europe against the threat of further Russian aggression.”

Hours earlier, Putin warned he was “ready right now” for war with Europe. The UK called it “sabre-rattling.”

Charles responded with steel, not silence.

THE NUMBERS THEY DO NOT WANT YOU TO SEE:

The German-British Bridging Battalion at Minden: 1,200 soldiers. Two militaries fused into one unit. The only binational NATO formation of its kind in Europe.

Germany’s defense surge: €108.2 billion budget for 2026. Target: 3.5% of GDP by 2029.

Combined UK-Germany Ukraine commitment: €21 billion pledged in April alone. Germany: €11 billion through 2029. UK: £4.5 billion for 2025.

Trinity House Agreement: Signed October 2024. First-ever UK-Germany defense pact across all domains.

THE STRATEGIC REALITY:

Putin has massed 170,000 troops at Pokrovsk. Europe’s two largest defense spenders just announced they are merging military capabilities.

This is not diplomacy. This is architecture.

While Moscow watches for cracks in Western unity, London and Berlin are welding the seams shut.

Steinmeier’s words echoed through Windsor’s halls: “Side by side for a free, peaceful Europe. Side by side in support of Ukraine.”

Crystal glasses clinked. But the real sound was the closing of ranks.

THE WINDSOR DOCTRINE IS NOW ACTIVE.

Europe is not waiting for permission. It is preparing for permanence.

The question is no longer whether the West will hold.

The question is whether Moscow calculated correctly.

Crypto Investment Interest Declines Among U.S. Investors, Study Finds
According to Cointelegraph, a recent study by the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) reveals a decline in U.S. investors' interest in cryptocurrency investments. The study indicates that while the percentage of crypto investors remained stable at 27% from 2021 to 2024, the number of investors considering purchasing more or buying for the first time decreased from 33% in 2021 to 26% in 2024. This shift reflects a broader trend of reduced risk-taking behavior among investors.

The FINRA study highlights a notable decrease in investors with high levels of investment risk, dropping from 12% to 8% between 2021 and 2024. The most significant decline was observed among investors under the age of 35, whose risk-taking behavior fell from 24% to 15%. Despite the steady number of crypto investors since the last study in 2024, the inclination to add cryptocurrency to investment portfolios has diminished. This trend is attributed to uncertainties surrounding interest rates, inflation, and the overall economic environment, prompting investors to seek safer assets.

The study, conducted between July and December 2024, involved 2,861 U.S. investors and a state-by-state online survey of 25,539 adults. It found that 66% of respondents viewed crypto as a risky investment, up from 58% in 2021. Nonetheless, a third of investors expressed the belief that taking significant risks is necessary to achieve financial goals, with this sentiment rising to 50% among those aged 35 and under. Additionally, 13% of investors, including nearly one-third of individuals under 25, reported purchasing meme stocks and other viral investments.

The pace of new investors entering the market has also slowed compared to 2021. Only 8% of investors reported entering the market in the last two years leading up to 2024, a decrease from 21% in 2021. FINRA noted that the surge of younger investors during the early pandemic period reversed as the pandemic ended, bringing the share of U.S. adults under 35 who invest back to 2018 levels. Overall, the study indicates a modest trend toward more cautious investment attitudes and behaviors compared to the 2021 survey.

🚨 #CZ vs. Peter Schiff The Moment That Shocked the Room🔥🔥🔥‼️

At #BinanceBlockchainWeek , CZ and long-time Bitcoin critic Peter Schiff finally met on stage for a face-to-face debate. Schiff doubled down on gold, CZ doubled down on #Bitcoin then things took an unexpected turn.

CZ walked out holding an actual gold bar… and handed it straight to Schiff.

“Is this real?” CZ asked.

Schiff the world’s loudest gold advocate paused and said:

“I’m not sure.”

And just like that, the room shifted.

In a single exchange, CZ illustrated what Bitcoin critics often overlook:

👉 Gold can be faked, forged, or doubted.
👉 Bitcoin can’t it verifies itself instantly, with no trust required.

CZ didn’t just win the debate…
He closed it.

Interesting take from BlackRock’s CEO—calling Bitcoin a ‘panic asset’ really shows how it’s seen as a hedge during uncertainty. With sovereign funds quietly stacking BTC, do you think this strengthens Bitcoin’s role as digital gold or just fuels volatility?

Bitcoin Viewed as a 'Panic Asset' Amid Global Uncertainty, Says BlackRock CEO
According to PANews, BlackRock CEO Larry Fink described Bitcoin as a 'panic asset' during the DealBook Summit, suggesting that people purchase it due to concerns over fiat currency devaluation, financial instability, and geopolitical crises. Fink emphasized that Bitcoin is not a traditional 'hope asset' but gains popularity during periods of increased market uncertainty. Currently, BlackRock's Bitcoin ETF (IBIT) manages assets worth approximately $80 billion, holding over 780,000 BTC. He also mentioned that sovereign funds are quietly increasing their holdings at high levels. However, Fink cautioned that Bitcoin's high volatility and susceptibility to leveraged funds make it unsuitable for short-term trading.

Bitcoin News Today: Bitcoin Falls Below $87.5K as Japan Bond Yields Hit 17-Year High and BOJ Rate-Hike Bets Surge
Bitcoin weakened in early Asia trading on Monday, sliding under $87,500 as Japanese bond yields spiked to levels not seen since 2008. The move strengthened the yen, accelerated carry-trade unwinds, and triggered a wave of crypto liquidations during thin liquidity hours.The pressure followed a sharp rise in Japan’s short-term government bond yields — a shift that traders increasingly interpret as a sign the Bank of Japan (BOJ) may be preparing its first rate hike in more than a decade.Japan Yields Surge, Sending Shockwaves Through Crypto MarketsJapan’s 2-year bond yield briefly reached 1.01%, the highest in 17 years, after BOJ Governor Kazuo Ueda said policymakers would assess whether a rate hike is appropriate at this month’s meeting.The comments accelerated yen buying and caused leveraged traders to unwind risk positions funded through yen carry trades — a dynamic that has supported global risk assets throughout 2025.Crypto, which is extremely sensitive to overnight liquidity moves in Asia, was hit immediately:Bitcoin dropped below $87,500, triggering forced liquidationsEther slid toward $2,850Both BTC and ETH long positions saw more than $290 million combined in liquidationsLiquidity remained thin across perpetual futures markets, magnifying the downside movePrediction markets reacted quickly. On Polymarket, the probability of a December BOJ rate hike rose to roughly 50%, up seven percentage points on the day.Why Japan Matters: Yen Strength and Carry Trades Put Pressure on CryptoThe yen’s rapid strengthening is central to the market volatility. For much of the year, traders have borrowed cheaply in yen to buy higher-yielding assets — including equities and crypto.A sudden shift toward BOJ tightening leads to:A stronger yenForced deleveraging of carry tradesLower liquidity for risk assetsAccelerated crypto sell-offs during Asia hoursGiven Bitcoin’s high leverage footprint on offshore exchanges, funding conditions tied to FX markets often amplify downside volatility.Market SnapshotBitcoin (BTC)Fell below $87,500More than $150M in long liquidationsDealers flagged additional downside risk if yen strength continuesEther (ETH)Dropped toward $2,850Approximately $140M in long liquidationsFunding rates compressed sharply, indicating a market-wide deriskingGoldGoldman Sachs reports 70% of institutional investors expect gold prices above $5,000 by 2026Rising safe-haven demand underscores broader macro uncertaintyNikkei 225Declined 1.3%Investors priced in an 87% chance of a December Fed rate cutChina’s manufacturing data remains a key near-term catalystWhat Traders Are Watching NextThis week’s crypto performance may hinge on two variables:BOJ communication ahead of its December meetingYen strength, particularly if USD/JPY breaks lower and accelerates carry-trade unwindsAny further hawkish signal from BOJ leadership would likely spark additional regional volatility — and by extension, more pressure on crypto markets during Asia trading hours, according to CoinDesk.

In a significant development for the cryptocurrency industry, the legal saga surrounding WEMIX manipulation charges has reached its conclusive chapter. Former Wemade CEO Jang Hyun-guk’s acquittal is now final, marking a pivotal moment that raises important questions about regulatory boundaries and market transparency in digital assets.

What Were the WEMIX Manipulation Charges About?

Prosecutors initially indicted Jang Hyun-guk in August 2023, alleging he manipulated the market by making false announcements about WEMIX coin liquidation. The core accusation centered on his early 2022 statement that he would stop liquidating WEMIX coins. Authorities claimed this announcement artificially supported both Wemade’s stock price and the WEMIX token value, allowing for improper profit-taking.

The prosecution built their case on the premise that this constituted market manipulation. However, the court ultimately disagreed with this interpretation, leading to the initial acquittal that has now become final.

Why Did the Acquittal Become Final?

The legal process reached its conclusion through a straightforward procedural step: neither side appealed the verdict. South Korean prosecutors had until December 4 to challenge the second-instance court’s not-guilty ruling. When they declined to file an appeal, and with Jang (now CEO of Nexus) also not appealing, the acquittal automatically became final on December 5.

This development matters for several reasons:

Legal Precedent: The case establishes boundaries for what constitutes manipulation in cryptocurrency markets

Regulatory Clarity: Provides clearer guidelines for crypto executives regarding public communications

Market Confidence: Reduces uncertainty surrounding WEMIX and related projects

What Does This Mean for Cryptocurrency Regulation?

The final resolution of these WEMIX manipulation charges offers valuable insights into how legal systems are adapting to cryptocurrency markets. Traditional securities laws don’t always translate perfectly to digital assets, creating gray areas that courts must navigate.

Key takeaways from this case include:

Prosecutors must meet high evidentiary standards when alleging cryptocurrency manipulation

Executive statements about token economics require careful legal consideration

The line between market communication and manipulation remains complex in crypto

Moreover, this outcome suggests that regulators may need more specific frameworks for addressing alleged cryptocurrency market abuses, rather than relying solely on existing financial regulations.

How Does This Impact WEMIX and the Broader Market?

With the WEMIX manipulation charges now definitively resolved, several immediate effects emerge. First, uncertainty that may have surrounded WEMIX trading diminishes significantly. Second, the precedent could influence how similar cases are prosecuted globally.

For investors and market participants, this case highlights crucial considerations:

Legal risks associated with cryptocurrency projects vary by jurisdiction

Executive communications carry significant legal weight in crypto markets

Regulatory scrutiny continues to intensify across global crypto markets

Final Thoughts on the WEMIX Legal Resolution

The conclusive acquittal in the WEMIX manipulation charges case represents more than just one executive’s legal victory. It signals how legal systems are wrestling with cryptocurrency regulation’s complexities. As digital assets continue evolving, we can expect more legal tests that define acceptable market practices.

This outcome provides temporary clarity but also underscores the need for more precise regulatory frameworks. The cryptocurrency industry benefits from clear rules, and cases like this help establish those boundaries through legal precedent.

Frequently Asked Questions

What exactly was Jang Hyun-guk accused of?

He faced allegations of manipulating WEMIX’s market price by falsely announcing he would stop liquidating WEMIX coins in early 2022, which prosecutors claimed artificially supported both the token and Wemade stock prices.

Why didn’t prosecutors appeal the acquittal?

While specific reasons weren’t publicly disclosed, prosecutors typically consider evidence strength, legal precedent, and resource allocation when deciding whether to appeal. Their decision suggests they assessed their case as unlikely to succeed in higher courts.

Does this mean WEMIX had no manipulation issues?

The court’s verdict means prosecutors didn’t prove their case beyond reasonable doubt. It doesn’t necessarily make broader statements about WEMIX’s market activities, only that specific charges against Jang weren’t legally substantiated.

How might this affect future cryptocurrency regulation?

This case highlights challenges in applying traditional securities laws to cryptocurrencies. It may push regulators toward creating more tailored frameworks for digital assets rather than relying on existing financial regulations.

What is Jang Hyun-guk’s current role?

He now serves as CEO of Nexus, having moved on from his position at Wemade. The legal proceedings didn’t prevent his continued involvement in the cryptocurrency industry.

Could similar charges be brought against other crypto executives?

Yes, but this case establishes precedent that may make prosecutors more cautious. They’ll likely need stronger evidence and clearer legal theories before pursuing similar WEMIX manipulation charges type cases.

AlphaTON Securities Filing: the $420.7 Million Power Move for AI and TON Growth
BitcoinWorld AlphaTON Securities Filing: The $420.7 Million Power Move for AI and TON Growth

In a bold move that signals growing institutional confidence, AlphaTON has taken a major step to secure its future. The Nasdaq-listed Digital Asset Treasury firm for the TON token has filed to raise a staggering $420.7 million. This AlphaTON securities filing represents more than just capital—it’s a strategic bet on the convergence of artificial intelligence and blockchain technology. Let’s explore what this means for investors, the TON ecosystem, and the broader crypto landscape.

What Does the AlphaTON Securities Filing Actually Mean?

AlphaTON recently submitted a Form S-3 shelf registration with U.S. financial authorities. This regulatory filing allows the company to issue up to $420.69 million in securities over time. Think of it as getting pre-approval for fundraising—the company can now tap into capital markets when conditions are favorable without starting from scratch each time.

The timing is particularly interesting. As traditional finance shows increasing interest in digital assets, AlphaTON’s move positions it at the intersection of regulated securities and innovative blockchain technology. The company plans to use these funds for several strategic initiatives that could reshape its role in the crypto ecosystem.

Where Will the $420.7 Million Actually Go?

AlphaTON has outlined clear priorities for the substantial capital it seeks to raise. The allocation strategy reveals much about where the company sees the greatest opportunities for growth and innovation.

The primary focus will be expanding AI and high-performance computing infrastructure. Specifically, this expansion will support Telegram’s Cocoon AI network—an ambitious project that could revolutionize how users interact with artificial intelligence through the popular messaging platform.

Beyond AI infrastructure, the funds will support:

TON token acquisition and related digital assets

Strategic investments in TON ecosystem startups

General corporate purposes and operational expansion

This diversified approach shows AlphaTON isn’t putting all its eggs in one basket. Instead, the company is building a comprehensive strategy that strengthens multiple aspects of its business simultaneously.

Why This AlphaTON Securities Move Matters for Crypto Investors

The significance of this AlphaTON securities filing extends far beyond the company itself. It represents several important trends in the evolving relationship between traditional finance and cryptocurrency.

First, it demonstrates that established companies can successfully navigate regulatory requirements while operating in the digital asset space. AlphaTON’s Nasdaq listing already provided legitimacy, but this securities filing shows the company can work within traditional financial frameworks while focusing on innovative technologies.

Second, the specific focus on AI infrastructure highlights how blockchain companies are expanding beyond their original mandates. AlphaTON started as a Digital Asset Treasury firm but now positions itself at the intersection of multiple cutting-edge technologies.

Finally, the substantial investment planned for the TON ecosystem signals strong confidence in Telegram’s blockchain ambitions. As one of the most widely used messaging platforms globally, Telegram’s integration with blockchain through TON creates unique opportunities for mass adoption.

What Challenges Could AlphaTON Face?

While the AlphaTON securities filing represents an ambitious vision, the company will need to navigate several potential challenges. Regulatory scrutiny will likely intensify as the company raises and deploys such substantial capital. U.S. financial authorities pay close attention to crypto-related securities offerings, particularly when they involve substantial sums.

Market conditions present another consideration. The success of any securities offering depends on investor appetite, which can fluctuate with broader economic trends and crypto market sentiment. AlphaTON’s shelf registration provides flexibility, but ultimately the company must issue securities when market conditions are favorable.

Execution risk represents the final major challenge. Successfully deploying $420.7 million across AI infrastructure, token acquisitions, and startup investments requires sophisticated management and strategic discipline. The company must demonstrate it can allocate capital effectively across these diverse areas.

The Bigger Picture: AI Meets Blockchain

AlphaTON’s focus on funding Telegram’s Cocoon AI network deserves special attention. This represents one of the most concrete examples of blockchain and artificial intelligence convergence in the current market.

The integration could work in both directions: blockchain technology might provide the transparency and security framework for AI systems, while AI could enhance blockchain applications through improved analytics and user experiences. AlphaTON’s substantial investment suggests the company sees this intersection as particularly promising.

For the TON token specifically, this development could drive increased utility and demand. If Cocoon AI becomes widely adopted within Telegram’s massive user base, the underlying blockchain infrastructure—and its native token—could see corresponding growth.

Conclusion: A Strategic Bet on Convergence

AlphaTON’s $420.7 million securities filing represents more than just a fundraising effort. It’s a strategic declaration that positions the company at the convergence of artificial intelligence, blockchain technology, and traditional finance. The move demonstrates growing institutional confidence in structured approaches to digital asset investment while highlighting the expanding possibilities of the TON ecosystem.

As AlphaTON deploys this capital toward AI infrastructure, token acquisition, and ecosystem investments, the crypto community will watch closely. The success or challenges the company faces could provide valuable insights into how traditional financial instruments can support innovative blockchain applications. One thing is clear: AlphaTON isn’t thinking small, and its ambitions could help shape how AI and blockchain technologies evolve together.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a Form S-3 shelf registration?

A Form S-3 is a regulatory filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission that allows companies to register securities for future offering. The “shelf” aspect means the company can issue these securities over time when market conditions are favorable, rather than all at once.

How will AlphaTON use the $420.7 million?

The company plans to allocate funds across three main areas: expanding AI and high-performance computing infrastructure for Telegram’s Cocoon AI network, purchasing TON tokens and related digital assets, and investing in startups within the TON ecosystem.

What is AlphaTON’s relationship with Telegram?

AlphaTON is a Digital Asset Treasury firm specifically for the TON token, which is integrated with Telegram’s messaging platform. While separate entities, their strategies are closely aligned, particularly regarding blockchain and AI development.

How might this securities filing affect TON token value?

While direct impacts are uncertain, substantial investment in the TON ecosystem could increase utility and demand for the token. However, cryptocurrency values depend on numerous factors beyond single corporate actions.

Is this a common practice for crypto companies?

Traditional securities filings by Nasdaq-listed crypto companies are becoming more common as the industry matures. However, the scale of AlphaTON’s filing and its specific focus on AI infrastructure represents a notable development.

What risks should investors consider?

Potential risks include regulatory challenges, market condition fluctuations affecting securities issuance, and execution risks in deploying substantial capital across diverse initiatives.

Kite: The First Blockchain That Treats Autonomous
—Agents as Real Citizens of the Network

Every generation of blockchains is defined by a question they were built to answer.

Bitcoin answered:

“How do we move money without trusting anyone?”

Ethereum answered:

“How do we execute agreements without intermediaries?”

Solana answered:

“How do we scale computation for global throughput?”

Appchains answered:

“How do we give applications sovereignty?”

Kite answers a question none of those systems were prepared for:

“What happens when machines — not humans — become the dominant users of blockchains?”

That question rewrites everything:
throughput designfee modelsidentity systemspermission boundariessafety constraintsexecution logicdeveloper assumptionsgovernance models

Most chains still pretend humans are the primary users.

Kite is the first chain that doesn’t.

Kite’s core thesis is simple, radical, and almost uncomfortable to admit:

Autonomous agents are the future.

Blockchains must evolve around them — not the other way around.

The Problem Kite Saw Before Everyone Else

Blockchains were built for human cognition:

slow, intentional, intermittent, emotional.

Humans sign messages.

Humans wait.

Humans double-check.

Humans hesitate.

Humans act in bursts.

Agents do none of that.

Agents operate like financial organisms:
constant sensingconstant rebalancingconstant optimizationconstant executionno fatigueno emotionno breaks

A human might rebalance once a week.

An agent might rebalance 3,000 times a day.

A human might interact manually with DeFi.

Agents interact continuously.

This mismatch is catastrophic for existing chains.

Agents overwhelm fee markets.

Agents suffer from MEV attacks.

Agents are crippled by unpredictable gas.

Agents can’t self-regulate.

Agents can’t be safely constrained.

Agents can’t be trusted without boundaries.

Existing chains were simply not built for autonomy.

Kite is the first to acknowledge this openly — and rebuild the full execution environment from scratch.

Kite’s Breakthrough: The Agent Passport

The Agent Passport is the conceptual heart of Kite — a framework that gives agents identity with boundaries, not identity with keys.

A Passport doesn’t just say who the agent is.

It defines what the agent is allowed to do.

It is programmable self-regulation.

A Passport can encode:

maximum daily spendwhitelisted contractsforbidden behaviorsrate limitsrisk toleranceslogic constraintsemergency stop rulesmulti-step execution boundaries

This transforms agents from unpredictable black-boxes into verifiable, rule-bound digital citizens.

Humans trust passports in the real world.

Agents need the same concept on-chain.

Kite didn’t create autonomy.

It created safe autonomy.

That’s the difference between chaos and a new financial era.

**Execution Without a Mempool:

The Only Fair Playground for Autonomous Systems**

One of the biggest hidden failures of modern blockchains is the mempool —

a public waiting room where bots front-run, sandwich, and manipulate any predictable action.

Humans tolerate mempool theft because it’s mostly invisible.

Agents cannot tolerate it at all.

Kite eliminates the mempool.

No mempool →

no MEV predation →

no agent exploitation →

no timing attacks →

no execution distortion.

This transforms the chain into a safe environment for:

arbitrage agentsmarket-making agentscross-chain routing agentsintent solverstreasury managersrebalancing botssynthetic asset agentsportfolio managers

Kite is the first chain where an agent doesn’t have to fight the infrastructure to exist.

The KITE Token: Fuel for Machine Behavior

Humans speculate on tokens.

Agents consume them.

Every agent transaction, update, recheck, rebalance, or execution consumes KITE the same way servers consume bandwidth or cloud apps consume compute credits.

This makes demand:

continuousprogrammaticnon-emotionaltied to usage, not marketingstable across market cycles

Agents don’t panic-sell.

Agents don’t pump.

Agents don’t dump.

Agents don’t time markets.

They simply pay for what they need to operate.

This transforms KITE from a speculative asset into a machine utility token — something closer to AWS credits than a typical DeFi governance coin.

It’s one of the few tokens built for the actual users of the future.

Why Agents Need Their Own Chain

Let’s zoom out.

Agents interacting with DeFi will face five structural problems on all existing chains:

Unpredictable gas makes consistent automation impossible.MEV makes profitable strategies unviable.Lack of native guardrails makes autonomy dangerous.Throughput limitations throttle agent behavior.User-centric design slows machine-native workflows.

Kite solves all five:

predictable executionMEV-free environmentrule-bound agent behaviorhigh-frequency throughputidentity tied to constraints

This is not a “better L1.”

It is a different category entirely.

When autonomous systems become the main liquidity actors —

something already starting in DeFi, gaming, and cross-chain routing —

Kite becomes not optional, but foundational.

The Agent Economy Is Closer Than People Think

Here’s the uncomfortable truth:

Agents are already everywhere, but most people don’t realize it.
liquidation botsrebalancerscross-chain market makersMEV searchersDeFi routersasset managerspredictive AI strategiesoption hedgersstructured-product engines

These are agents — crude ones.

The next generation will be:
smarterautonomousgoal-orientedcomposablemulti-chainconstantly learning

Humans won’t interact with every protocol manually.

Humans will authorize their agents through something like the Kite Passport — then sit back while their digital assistant optimizes their entire financial life.

This is not sci-fi.

It’s already emerging in:

intent-based executionAI-assisted walletsautonomous yield routingself-managing treasuriesagent-to-agent marketplaces

Kite is building the execution layer those systems will rely on.

**My Take:

Kite Isn’t a Blockchain for People.

It’s a Civilization Layer for Machines.**

Every once in a while, a protocol doesn’t just propose a feature — it proposes a future.

Ethereum proposed programmable trust.

EigenLayer proposed programmable security.

Celestia proposed programmable data.

Kite proposes programmable autonomy.

That matters because the next wave of activity won’t come from retail traders or DeFi farmers —

it will come from digital actors:

agents that manage portfoliosagents that execute tradesagents that manage DAOsagents that run entire businessesagents that negotiate with other agents

Humans won’t be the main users of blockchains.

Humans will be the source of intent.

Agents will be the source of execution.

Kite is the first chain that understands this at the architectural level.

Not faster.

Not cheaper.

Not trendier.

Correct.

Correct for the world that’s coming, not the world that’s fading.

In a few years, people will look back at Kite the way we now look at the early days of Ethereum —

the beginning of a category we didn’t yet have words for.

If blockchains are cities,

Kite is the first city built for machines —

with rules, laws, safety, and identity designed specifically for them.

And in that future, humans won’t disappear.

We’ll simply stop doing the work ourselves.

Our agents will live there on our behalf.

Moonwell Q3 2025 Report
1) Executive summary
Moonwell is an open and decentralized lending project designed to make onchain lending and borrowing accessible. The project emphasizes simplicity through an intuitive user interface that enables users to lend, borrow, and claim rewards in just a few clicks while maintaining complete control over their digital assets. All protocol changes are governed through onchain governance proposals, ensuring alignment with community interests. Token Terminal currently tracks Moonwell on Base and OP Mainnet.
In Q3 2025, Moonwell saw growth in TVL and fees while revenue and MAU remained relatively flat. Base remains the dominant chain, accounting for over 85% of TVL, fees, and user activity.
🔑 Key metrics (Q3 2025)
Total value locked: $393.34M (+21.09% QoQ)Active loans: $202.66M (+10.20% QoQ)Fees: $3.04M (+29.29% QoQ)Revenue: $527.02K (-1.58% QoQ)Monthly active users: 20.80K (-1.42% QoQ)
2) Total value locked
Total value locked (TVL) measures the total USD value of collateral deposited into Moonwell, as well as active loans. Q3 TVL averaged $393.34M, up from $324.81M in Q2, representing a 21.09% increase quarter-over-quarter. Base accounted for the majority of deposits at $341.68M (86.87% of Q3 total), followed by OP Mainnet at $51.66M (13.13%).

👥 Moonwell team commentary
"TVL continued to grow as the Base ecosystem expanded, with more users joining quarter on quarter and bringing additional liquidity. These trends lifted activity in Moonwell markets and increased collateral deposits across the protocol. Moonwell benefited from offering lending markets for several top native assets on Base such as AERO, MORPHO, and VIRTUAL. These markets attracted users who prefer to stay onchain and hold exposure to Base native assets while earning a return on deposits. OP Mainnet activity remained steady, while most new growth concentrated on Base, supported by deeper liquidity, stronger user inflows, and higher onchain participation."
3) Active loans
Active loans measures the total USD value of outstanding borrows across all Moonwell lending markets. Q3 active loans averaged $202.66M, up from $183.90M in Q2, representing a 10.20% increase quarter-over-quarter. Base accounted for the majority of borrowing at $168.08M (82.94% of Q3 total), followed by OP Mainnet at $34.57M (17.06%).

👥 Moonwell team commentary
"Borrow demand increased as Base markets deepened and more users relied on the network for trading, liquidity rotation, and collateralized borrowing. Loans were driven mainly by users seeking stablecoin liquidity against ETH or cbBTC collateral, supported by market conditions that provided opportunities for short term positioning and hedging."
4) Fees
Fees measure the total USD value of fees paid by users across all of Moonwell's lending markets. Q3 fees totaled $3.04M, up from $2.35M in Q2, representing a 29.29% increase quarter-over-quarter. Base generated $2.74M (90.00% of Q3 total), followed by OP Mainnet at $304.34K (10.00%).

👥 Moonwell team commentary
"Fees continued to show real usage across Moonwell markets. TVL by itself does not reflect activity and can be passive, while borrowing demand, fee generation, and revenue show whether capital is working. Total fees reached $3.04M in Q3, a 29% increase from the $2.35M generated in Q2. Base remained the center of fee generation as deeper liquidity and stronger borrowing demand lifted activity, while OP Mainnet held steady with smaller but consistent volumes. Fees support lenders and also drive the Moonwell economic flywheel, where protocol reserves and vault performance fees move through onchain auctions to acquire WELL from the open market that then flow to stkWELL stakers. Higher borrowing leads to higher fees, and higher fees lead to more WELL acquired for stakers who help secure the protocol."
5) Revenue
Revenue measures the total USD value of fees retained by Moonwell. Q3 revenue totaled $527.02K, down from $535.48K in Q2, representing a 1.58% decrease quarter-over-quarter. Base accounted for $494.18K (93.77% of Q3 total), followed by OP Mainnet at $32.84K (6.23%).

👥 Moonwell team commentary
"Protocol revenue followed similar patterns to fees and is directly linked to the usage and capital efficiency. Moonwell recorded $527K in revenue for Q3, slightly below the $535K recorded in Q2, before rising to $854K in Q4. Revenue reflects the share of fees retained by the protocol after lender interest, and the year to date trend has remained upward despite short term shifts in borrowing patterns. Base contributed $494K in Q3, equal to 94% of the total. Strong borrowing demand on Base, deep liquidity in core markets, and the growth of the Moonwell vaults all supported this performance. The vaults were key to generating revenue that flowed back to WELL stakers while helping to provide borrowable liquidity for the Bitcoin and Ethereum backed loans product available in the Coinbase app. Taken together, these trends show Moonwell growth driven by real onchain usage rather than static TVL."
6) Monthly active users
Monthly active users (MAU) measures the number of unique wallet addresses that have interacted with Moonwell over a rolling 30 day period. Q3 MAU averaged 20.80K, down from 21.10K in Q2, representing a 1.42% decrease quarter-over-quarter. Base accounted for the majority of user activity at 17.50K (84.13% of Q3 total), followed by OP Mainnet at 3.50K (16.83%).

👥 Moonwell team commentary
"Monthly active users averaged 20.8K in Q3, a slight decrease from the 21.1K in Q2. Overall activity stayed stable and followed broader Base network patterns rather than any single event. Base accounted for 17.5K monthly active users in Q3, equal to 84% of the total. New applications launched on Base during the quarter which attracted more users to the network, creating additional onchain activity. Moonwell benefited from this growth but also experienced modest seasonal slowdowns during quieter market periods. User retention remained strong as existing users continued to borrow, lend, and manage positions at consistent levels which helped maintain a solid baseline of monthly activity."
7) Outlook
👥 Moonwell team commentary
"Q3 delivered steady progress across Moonwell core metrics. TVL and active loans expanded, fees reached new highs, and protocol revenue remained healthy. The protocol benefited from growth of the Base ecosystem, rising demand for lending and borrowing, strong performance of Moonwell vaults, and the reserve auction mechanism, which converts protocol earnings into rewards for stakers. Looking ahead, the focus remains on deepening capital efficiency and strengthening Moonwell's position as a core lending layer on Base. Key work for the next quarter includes additional integrations with Base native applications that rely on Moonwell for borrowable liquidity, the addition of other Morpho-powered vaults on Base, and ongoing improvements in risk management, monitoring, and transparency. Success will be measured through growth in active loans, consistent fee generation and protocol revenue, reserves accumulated, and the amount of WELL acquired through monthly reserve auctions. These indicators will show whether Moonwell continues to lead in real usage, capital efficiency, and sustainable onchain fundamentals."

Revolutionary: WisdomTree’s Pure StETH ETP Launches in Europe, First of Its Kind
BitcoinWorld Revolutionary: WisdomTree’s Pure stETH ETP Launches in Europe, First of Its Kind

In a landmark move for cryptocurrency institutional adoption, U.S. asset manager WisdomTree has launched a groundbreaking financial product in Europe. This is the first-ever exchange-traded product (ETP) designed to hold exclusively stETH, the token representing staked Ethereum via the Lido protocol. This stETH ETP represents a significant evolution in how traditional investors can access the Ethereum ecosystem.

What Makes This stETH ETP So Revolutionary?

Unlike other staking-related ETPs, WisdomTree’s new product is structured with a key difference: it operates without an unstaking buffer. Typically, providers hold a portion of assets in liquid ETH to manage redemptions, as unstaking Ethereum involves a waiting period. This new stETH ETP is a “fully staked” vehicle, meaning 100% of its underlying asset is stETH. This structure offers a purer, more direct exposure to the rewards of Ethereum staking.

Why Should Investors Care About a Pure stETH ETP?

For investors, this product simplifies a complex process. Instead of navigating decentralized finance (DeFi) protocols or managing private keys, they can buy a familiar security on a regulated exchange. The stETH ETP effectively bridges the gap between traditional finance and the innovative world of crypto staking.

The benefits are clear:

Simplified Access: Gain staking rewards without technical know-how.

Regulated Environment: Trade within familiar, established exchanges.

Pure Exposure: Direct link to stETH’s performance and yield.

Liquidity: Easy to buy and sell like a traditional stock or ETF.

What Are the Potential Challenges and Considerations?

However, this innovative structure is not without its nuances. The absence of an unstaking buffer means the product’s net asset value is intrinsically tied to the market price of stETH. While stETH generally trades close to the value of ETH, it can occasionally experience slight discounts or premiums, especially during periods of high network activity or market stress.

Furthermore, investors must understand they are exposed to the smart contract risks associated with the Lido protocol, albeit indirectly. While Lido is a leading and well-audited platform, it remains a crucial point of due diligence. This stETH ETP democratizes access but does not eliminate the underlying technological risks of the DeFi ecosystem.

A Compelling Step Forward for Crypto Finance

WisdomTree’s launch is more than just a new product; it’s a signal. It demonstrates growing institutional maturity around Ethereum staking and a demand for sophisticated, regulated wrappers for crypto-native assets. This stETH ETP could pave the way for similar products, further integrating staking yields into mainstream portfolios.

In conclusion, WisdomTree has introduced a pioneering instrument that offers a seamless gateway to Ethereum staking rewards. By removing the unstaking buffer, it provides a uniquely pure investment thesis. For European investors seeking regulated exposure to crypto’s innovative income-generating mechanisms, this stETH ETP marks a compelling and revolutionary new option on the shelf.
