Kamino has solidified its position as the leading money market on Solana and is emerging as a DeFi bluechip. Although DeFi competition is fierce, Kamino has kept iterating on its product to provide the best-in-class UX, paired with a robust risk management framework and battle-tested infrastructure. Given the rollout of Kamino Lend V2, the protocol may scale aggressively over the coming months, penetrating previously untapped markets in Solana DeFi.

Despite Off The Grid’s early success through a well-planned marketing campaign, it currently lacks a native token.

Unlocking Institutional Ethereum Staking: A Survey of Industry Leaders

Blockworks Research

Institutional interest in Ethereum staking is growing rapidly, with a majority of participants using third-party platforms to manage their staked assets. Liquid staking tokens (LSTs) are increasingly popular for their ability to provide liquidity and improve capital efficiency. Advanced staking technologies like Distributed Validators (DVs) are gaining traction, offering enhanced security and fault tolerance, which is driving further institutional adoption despite ongoing concerns around risks and regulatory clarity.

Bitcoin Expressivity with BitcoinOS

Blockworks Research

The BitcoinOS team is the first to have developed and posted a ZK-compressed proof on the Bitcoin network. Other proof verification efforts have been limited to the Signet or testnet deployments. Their work has resulted in the development of BitSNARK, a software library for ZK-compressed fraud proofs on the Bitcoin network. The project aims to provide a horizontal scaling solution, offering a one-stop shop for teams interested in developing a rollup on Bitcoin. This approach shares similarities with the horizontal tech stack scaling in other ecosystems like Cosmos and Optimism, particularly in its focus on simplified verification, bridging standards, and lightweight interoperability.
