    Soul Protocol One-Pager. Omnichain Liquidity Layer for Lending

    Soul Protocol One-Pager. Omnichain Liquidity Layer for Lending

    One lending position, every chain. Soul pools Aave, Compound, Morpho and Venus into a single market, so you borrow and lend across five networks without bridging.


    Cross-chain actions settle through LayerZero, while staking SO boosts your yield on top. It's a single liquidity layer that makes multi-chain lending feel like one chain.

    a16z Launches a Post-Quantum Jolt zkVM

    a16z Launches a Post-Quantum Jolt zkVM

    a16z crypto released Lattice Jolt, a new version of its open-source Jolt zkVM that rebuilds the cryptography on lattices instead of elliptic curves, making it post-quantum without slowing down.


    The switch replaces Jolt's old Dory commitment scheme with Akita, a lattice-based scheme built on Module-SIS, the same assumption family behind NIST's ML-DSA and ML-KEM standards, developed with LayerZero, Carnegie Mellon and USC, targeting a full 128 bits of security. Because lattices reach comparable security over 128-bit fields instead of 256-bit ones, the prover and verifier run 2 to 3 times faster: over 2 million RISC-V cycles per second on a laptop CPU, and more than 10 million on a MacBook GPU via Apple Metal. Its proofs are the shortest of any post-quantum zkVM, under 100 KB, which makes onchain verification cheaper.


    Most post-quantum SNARKs in production today are hash-based; Lattice Jolt argues lattice-based ones can be both faster and more compact, mirroring how digital signatures have already shifted toward lattices. Jolt stays open-source, letting developers prove ordinary programs rather than hand-crafted circuits.

    Pump fun Debuts Custom Pairs With Stocks & Metals

    Pump fun Debuts Custom Pairs With Stocks & Metals

    Pump.fun introduced Custom Pairs, letting token creators launch coins paired with tokenized stocks, crypto majors and metals on Solana, not just SOL or USDC.


    The feature brings 20 brand-new asset pairs to Solana through a partnership with Sunrise, spanning tokenized equities like BA, BABA, COST, DELL, DJT, HIMS, IBM, JNJ, LMT, LULU, MGM and PFE, alongside crypto majors and metals. Pump.fun pitches more variety, deeper liquidity and lower fees than rival launchpads. Pairing a token to a tokenized stock only mirrors that asset's price, though: holders get no claim on the real shares, no dividends and no voting rights.


    The move pushes Pump fun past pure memecoins into the fast-growing tokenized-stock narrative, and lands amid a wave of stock-paired launchpads, from Robinhood Chain's PAIR and Long xyz to Solana rivals like StonkFun, all betting community tokens will trade against equities instead of gas coins.

    StoneX Sees Further Upside for Robinhood Amid Growing Crypto Expansion

    StoneX Sees Further Upside for Robinhood Amid Growing Crypto Expansion

    StoneX analysts see further upside for Robinhood, raising their price target as the company continues expanding across crypto, equities and prediction markets.


    The analysts highlighted Robinhood’s growing transaction activity, crypto adoption and expansion into new financial products as key drivers for future growth. The company’s blockchain strategy and increasing onchain activity also strengthen its position as it moves deeper into crypto infrastructure.


    StoneX expects Robinhood’s broader product ecosystem and increasing user engagement to support continued revenue growth, with the firm maintaining a bullish outlook despite the stock’s strong recent performance.

    Pons Drives Robinhood Chain Fees to Record $6M Daily

    Pons Drives Robinhood Chain Fees to Record $6M Daily

    Robinhood Chain generated a record $6M in daily fees on September 4, while weekly DEX volume reached $12.4B, more than double the previous week's total.


    Chain fees totaled approximately $25M over the seven days through September 4, up from just $1.4M the previous week. Despite average daily active accounts falling to 396K, fees per active account surged from $0.13 in mid-August to $15.90 in early September.


    The surge is largely driven by Pons, Robinhood Chain's leading token launchpad. Pons generated nearly $6M in fees on September 3, while its PONS token briefly reached a valuation above $970M.


    Around 80% of Pons' revenue is used for token buybacks, with more than 28% of the token supply already burned.

    Consensys Splits MetaMask Into Independent Company

    Consensys Splits MetaMask Into Independent Company

    Consensys plans to split MetaMask into an independent company, separating its wallet business from its Ethereum infrastructure and institutional operations by the end of 2026.


    Consensys Software Inc. will rebrand as MetaMask, with Ethereum co-founder Joe Lubin serving as chairman and CEO. The new Consensys will retain the Consensys name and focus on Linea, Besu, Teku, and blockchain infrastructure for banks and other institutions.


    The restructuring comes as MetaMask expands beyond its wallet roots into payments, savings and investing, while the new Consensys focuses on tokenized assets, stablecoins and institutional settlement infrastructure.


    The company did not provide an update on its previously delayed U.S. IPO plans or clarify which entity could pursue a listing.

    Plume Opens Factor, a Tokenized Credit Vault

    Plume Opens Factor, a Tokenized Credit Vault

    Plume opened its Factor credit vault, a capacity-limited pool on Plume Vaults that gives stablecoin depositors exposure to a curated book of invoice factoring and working-capital loans.


    Built with Tradeable and New York credit fund Deep Ocean Partners, Factor is an actively managed book rather than a single wrapped fund: depositors get a FACTOR receipt token and hold exposure to short-dated, self-liquidating, asset-backed facilities like invoice factoring, receivables revolvers and floorplan lines. The targeted 14%+ net APY comes from capital efficiency, cycling each dollar four to twelve times a year against investment-grade obligors, not from reaching for riskier credit. Weekly liquidity is engineered from a liquid treasury sleeve, contractual collateral runoff, and a contractual buyback from the lender of record.


    It targets the roughly $170 billion US factoring market and the underserved $2M to $20M ticket that banks find too small and big private-credit funds too large, turning an asset class that once needed an LP agreement and quarterly redemptions into a receipt token in a wallet. All APY figures are targets, not guarantees.

    Hunter Biden's $LAPTOP Craters ~99% at Launch

    Hunter Biden's $LAPTOP Craters ~99% at Launch

    Hunter Biden's $LAPTOP went live on Base this morning and collapsed roughly 99% within the first hour of trading, as the launch spike unwound almost as fast as it formed.


    The memecoin, named after the laptop at the center of years of political controversy, went live at 8:00 AM ET with a one billion supply. Founders including Biden hold 30%, locked for six months; 20% is airdropped to wallets that lost money on TRUMP, his Substack subscribers and journalist Andrew Callaghan's mailing list; and another 30% is tied to real-world prediction outcomes, with tokens burned if events hit and otherwise eventually donated to charity. Despite launching on Base, neither Base nor Coinbase endorsed the project, with Base lead Jesse Pollak stressing the network is permissionless, while Kraken drew criticism for promoting the token.


    The near-vertical drop is a familiar day-one memecoin pattern: an early spike as buyers chase the headline, then a rapid unwind as the first holders sell into the hype, leaving latecomers deep underwater.

    Bybit Debuts Bybit AI, a Chat Trading Tool

    Bybit Debuts Bybit AI, a Chat Trading Tool

    Bybit launched Bybit AI, a conversational assistant built into its app that lets users trade and manage their accounts with plain natural-language commands instead of tapping through menus.


    Through chat, users can query their assets and place spot, derivatives and options orders, and reach Earn, copy trading, lending, P2P and customer-support tickets without leaving the conversation. Enabling Bybit AI automatically creates a separate sub-account whose assets are physically segregated from the user's main account, ringfencing whatever the assistant is able to touch. The design keeps the assistant's activity walled off from a user's core balance while it acts on their instructions.


    The move puts Bybit among the exchanges racing to wrap AI agents around trading, days after Binance opened early access to its own in-app assistant, as venues bet natural-language interfaces will lower the barrier for everyday users.
