XRP open interest across major exchanges (Binance, Bybit, OKX, Kraken) has compressed back to levels last seen before the late-2024 rally, even as price holds near $1.08. Leverage has been flushed out of the market a sharp divergence from the euphoric OI spikes seen during the January and July 2025 price peaks.

Solana has now outpaced Bybit, Coinbase, and Kraken in weekly DEX spot volume for four straight weeks, second only to Binance. That’s a blockchain outperforming some of the world’s biggest centralized exchanges, even as the market stays cautious. DeFi’s market cap is down 11.5% and Bitcoin sentiment remains in Fear, making this sustained volume look more like real activity than hype. The timing is notable. It comes as institutional access expands with new Solana investment products, while retail liquidity continues moving onchain. Many still see Solana as just the “memecoin chain,” but the data suggests something bigger: liquidity is shifting onchain, and volume is often the first sign

New : Tokenized equities are accelerating into the mainstream. Onchain equity holders have reached a new all-time high of 759K. ✔️ +92% in the last 30 days ✔️ +522% year-to-date Investors no longer want to be limited by traditional market hours. They want 24/7 access to real-world equities, and adoption is accelerating. Key players driving the trend: ▫️ Ondo Finance – 400+ tokenized stocks and ETFs across Solana, Ethereum, and BNB Chain. ▫️ xStocks (Backed + Kraken) – One of the broadest tokenized equity offerings, backed 1-for-1 with underlying shares. ▫️ Bitget (rTokens) – 500+ U.S. tokenized stocks tradable with USDT through a crypto-native experience. ▫️ Binance bStocks – Rapidly expanding with 24/7 access to tokenized equities. ▫️ Securitize – Institutional leader powering regulated tokenized securities alongside major financial firms. ▫️ Robinhood – Bringing tokenized equities to a broader retail audience. Tokenized equities are moving beyond experimentation and into adoption. 24/7 markets, onchain settlement, and global accessibility are reshaping how investors access traditional assets. This is no longer just a crypto narrative. It is the early stages of capital markets moving onchain. Who do you think will dominate the tokenized equity market over the next 3 years? 👇

August 10 just might be the most important day in crypto this year. And people arent talking about it enough. That's the deadline for CLARITY ACT. If the Senate doesn't vote on the CLARITY Act by then, it's dead until September. The bill splits crypto oversight between the SEC and CFTC. Right now companies get sued for guessing wrong about which one owns them. Backers: Coinbase, Ripple, Circle, Kraken, a16z, Paradigm, Galaxy Digital. 100+ firms signed the letter. Marc Andreessen and Fred Ehrsam are advising the White House on it directly. Already passed the House, 294–136. Republicans plus 78 Democrats. Senate Banking cleared it too. Tim Scott, Cynthia Lummis, plus Democrats Ruben Gallego and Angela Alsobrooks. Meanwhile: whale wallets added 270,000+ BTC in the last two weeks. Retail sentiment sits in Extreme Fear. Big money is positioning on the rule. Retail is reacting to price. Miss August 10, and this whole conversation resets for months. That's why it matters more than any chart right now.

Ink Daily

@InkDailyTK

.@krakenfx launched a prop firm, and there's an $INK angle. 👀 Trade Kraken's capital, funded from $20, eval sizes $5k–$200k, keep up to 90% of profits. What's so special? 🔥 No time limit. The clock never starts. Most firms give you 30 days and that deadline kills accounts, people force trades and breach the daily loss cap chasing it back. At Kraken Prop you go at your own pace. And no complicated rules. One eval, one profit target, done. No phase 1 into phase 2, no minimum trading days. Pick your wallet size then your package: ▫️ Starter 10% / 3% daily / 6% DD ▫️Intermediate 12% / 3% / 5% ▫️Advanced 9% / 3% / 3% You trade on Kraken Pro directly, not a third-party terminal, trade directly within platforms that millions trust. Start a new evaluation this week and you earn bonus $INK Points. Limited window. One note: Pick for the drawdown, not the target, trade smart and good luck!
