There are two essential layers to the onchain economy: chain and liquidity networks. And it is not often noted, more value is accrued at the liquidity layer ($5B+) than chain layer ($3B+). MetaDEXs treat liquidity as a network -- and will soon unify it around a single token.

@robinhanson what if you're reading too much into the words "financialize" and "tradable" and not enough into the words "everything" and "any" Capitalist libertarianism tends to be perceived most positively when framed as "we're peacefully doing our own thing", most negatively when it's

An old Steve Jobs quote that comes to mind: "Everything around you that you call life was made up by people that were no smarter than you. And you can change it. You can influence it. You can build your own things that other people can use... That's maybe the most important

Yeah, I think this clears things up. Kudos to @jessepollak for playing it straight. 🫡

For strong projects looking to expand their reach and distribution from Solana to Base, and access more users, this is as easy as 1,2,3 solution

Been diving deep into @AerodromeFi's growth throughout 2025 and they've done incredibly well. Going to share a deeper write up tomorrow doing analysis of their 2026 plans, the metadex and everything included. If there's any data or angles I should consider, feel free to share

As @DefiLlama demonstrates, @AerodromeFi on @base generates 31x more revenue than @helium.

Any @Solana token can now get distribution to millions on @coinbase. And it's easy as 1-2-3 👇 1. Launch pool 2. Choose token & pool parameters 3. Go live on @base Head over to the Liquidity page and get started 👇

Impressive addition from one of the strongest team in the defi business! @AerodromeFi just unlocked additional meme-related volume coming in from Solana. Some of the big memes will enable more fees on the platform and will expose them to quality projects on base $AERO flows🛫

Bridge to @base with @AerodromeFi. Become eligible to trade on @coinbase. Distribution to millions with just a few clicks.

If you are a creator or issuer on @solana and you’ve always dreamed of trading on @coinbase, Aero Launch means you are now just a few clicks away. Permissionless global distribution — only on @base.

That said, this chart pretty well illustrates why they don’t see a two-way bridge as mutually beneficial. But that’s a Solana problem, not a Base problem.

Nailed it.

Base builders, you can now keep your contracts on base, expand to Solana and call your contracts from there Maybe Toly was right: there are only 6 programs worth writing (on solana), but there are 100s more on Base

Lots of bearishness and infighting on the timeline among an increasingly smaller number of people still building in our industry. Not the energy I came for or care to be a part of. Brings me down seeing people I admire and respect getting wrapped up in local maxima short term

Highlights From The Last Week 👇 • The @base - @solana bridge is here • $SOL is live on Aerodrome • New Flight School Bonus • $AERO is live on the @RobinhoodApp • @wagmiAlexander recaps A New Horizon • https://t.co/uJYnOLFkVO migration complete • $200M in rewards in 2025

FWIW we’ve been flagging these composability issues for some time (@ZoomerAnon took a lot of flack for flagging them early) — seems folks get it now. MetaDEX03 is designed in a modular way which means you can improve it without breaking composability which is real edge.

SEC chair emphasizes the most important upgrades coming from tokenization are: Same Day (T0) Clearance and Settlement. This means the most important aspects of tokenizing the world are security and reliability. This is EXACTLY what @ethereum is built for.

okay so here is my somewhat toxic legal take that I think can manage to piss off pretty much everyone and every type of person in crypto simultaneously: *right now there are numerous launchpad projects that pitch themselves along the lines of 'make tokens work like equity but

We are not just up against some of the most entrenched and well resourced interests in history, but forces even more powerful: cynicism, doubt, the bias for the familiar. We didn't enter this industry to exit it, but to make it (and thus the world) better. It is still Day 1. 🛫
