First truly cross-chain DvP completed! Chainlink's Runtime Environment (CRE) just orchestrated an atomic swap of Ondo Finance’s tokenized U.S.-Treasuries fund $OUSG on the brand-new Ondo Chain (L1) against instant cash settlement on @jpmorgan’s Kinexys Digital Payments network. Why it matters: 🔹 Bank-grade rails (Kinexys > $1.5 T notional, ~$2 B daily, 10× YoY growth) now plug directly into open blockchains. 🔹 Assets + payments move simultaneously, slashing counter-party risk that still costs markets ~$914 B each decade. 🔹Blueprint for bringing trillions of real-world assets on-chain with full compliance and near-real-time finality. Huge milestone! 🔥 Driving the TradFi ↔ DeFi convergence forward. 🚀

Ethereum’s growth spurt in three numbers (courtesy of growthepie.xyz): • 13.6M active addresses (+30 % WoW) • 682k multi-chain users (+15 %) • 5.8 × L2 dominance (+22 %) What that actually means: 1. The rollup thesis has escaped the whitepaper. 2. Cost is no longer crypto’s moat, UX is. 3. Inter-chain muscle memory is forming. 4. Fee revenue isn’t being cannibalised, it’s being compounded. 5. Infra is the stealth winner. The takeaway: Ethereum isn’t fighting for users; it’s building bigger stadiums for them. If your project still lives only on L1 and ignores rollup UX, you’re quietly donating market share.

Stablecoins settled $27.6T in 2024, surpassing Visa and Mastercard combined. The next $270T may come from enterprise-grade, global payment infrastructure.

One likely outcome once stablecoins are everywhere, crypto becomes invisible, powering apps behind the scenes with instant, global money. Unlocks more real-world utility, kills off speculation-driven tokens, and finally makes consumer crypto go mainstream.

Ethereum is becoming the global settlement layer, and the world is building on it. 🔹 Alibaba, one of China’s largest tech giants, is building its own Ethereum L2. 🔹 Deutsche Bank, a pillar of European finance, is building its own Ethereum L2 infrastructure. 🔹 BlackRock, the world’s largest asset manager, is actively tokenizing real-world assets directly on Ethereum L1. 🔹 @worldcoin-xyz is betting its vision of identity and global finance on Ethereum L2 rails. 🔹 Visa and Mastercard are building payment and settlement solutions using Ethereum L2s. 🔹 @coinbase launched @base , now one of the most vibrant L2 ecosystems. 🔹 Circle’s USDC dominates Ethereum L1 and L2 — more volume, more velocity, and more trust than other chains. Polygon AggLayer now working to unify fragmented chains and L2s, offering liquidity routing, interoperability, and seamless user experience. From TradFi to Big Tech to decentralized apps, they’re all converging.

Crypto consumer apps are finally solving real problems, not just fuelling speculation. OnchainHQ latest research shows crypto payments are now the most adopted use case, outpacing NFTs, gaming, and DeFi. Whats really interesting is that finance is not being reinvented but actually reprogrammed. Web3 fintech isn’t about UX on old rails but rather a new logic layer where the infrastructure is the product. Yield-bearing balances, programmable spending, and composable DeFi are the primitives. Neobanks for instance made TradFi feel modern. Web3 makes it modular, programmable, and borderless. https://onchain.org/research/crypto-apps-for-consumers-are-here-to-stay/chapter/2/
