Blast closes its Ethereum layer-2 after earning $1,793 in a month

Blast is closing its Ethereum layer-2 after the chain earned $1,793 last month, down from about $3.5 million in June 2024. Revenue fell far faster than deposits, a pattern that fits an airdrop-era chain better than an industry-wide squeeze.

Robinhood's crypto head expects SEC volume caps to bind a US stock-token launch

Robinhood's Johann Kerbrat says its offshore stock-token turnover is already high enough to hit some caps in the SEC's September 17 Innovation Exemption. The larger obstacle is the product itself, a Jersey-issued debt note the order excludes, so a US version must first be rebuilt to carry full shareholder rights.

Ninth Circuit hands Nevada the power to enforce gaming law against Kalshi's sports markets

A unanimous panel decided that Kalshi's contracts on who wins a game are likely bets rather than swaps, which turns one federal registration back into a fifty-state licensing problem for the exchange.

Standard Chartered sets 66x ARB target for 2030, betting on tokenization growth

Geoff Kendrick's note puts ARB at $10 by 2030 from about $0.15, and the Expansion Program revenue behind that call splits 8% to the Arbitrum DAO treasury and 2% to a developer guild. A holder's claim on it runs through what the DAO spends.
