‍Mantle, Bybit, & Backed Launch xStocks: Tokenized U.S. Equities Onchain Mantle, Bybit, and Backed have partnered to launch xStocks, a platform for tokenized U.S. equities on the Mantle Network. This initiative provides 24/7 onchain access to assets like NVDAx and AAPLx, bridging TradFi, CeFi, and DeFi. xStocks tokens are issued by Backed and fully backed 1:1 by underlying securities, with regulated custodians ensuring compliance. Bybit will facilitate deposits and withdrawals via the Mantle Network. Emily Bao of Bybit stated, "Tokenized equities are redefining how traditional markets interact with blockchain technology." David Henderson of Backed added, "Together with Mantle and Bybit, we’re building the onchain economy to not only absorb capital markets but improve them." This collaboration aims to expand Mantle's Real-World Asset (RWA) ecosystem and foster broader adoption of tokenized assets. xStocks are not available in the U.S. or to U.S. citizens.

‍Ethereum Shows Resilience Above $3,000, On-Chain Metrics Signal Support Ethereum (ETH) has demonstrated notable resilience, with its price finding strong support above the $3,000 level following a recent sell-off. This recovery is bolstered by several key on-chain indicators, suggesting potential for continued stability and upward momentum. The Spent Output Profit Ratio (SOPR) has dipped to 0.96, indicating that many investors are realizing losses, a common precursor to market bottoms. Historically, such dips have preceded significant recoveries. Furthermore, Ethereum's network dominance is reinforced by surging fees, which rose 83% week-over-week, significantly outpacing competitors. The supply of ETH on exchanges has also reached a nine-year low, decreasing selling pressure. Technical analysis confirms strong support between $3,000 and $3,150, where the 100-week and 50-week SMAs converge. Analysts suggest this level is a critical stronghold for ETH.

‍Crypto's Incentive Crisis: Bonding Curves Hinder Mainstream Adoption Jake Antifaev, CEO of Thrust, argues that prevailing token launch mechanisms, particularly bonding curves, prioritize speed and insider advantage over long-term commitment. This "extractive" model rewards early "snipers" who use genuine investors as exit liquidity, creating a pump-and-dump cycle. Antifaev stresses that for crypto to mature, it must move beyond treating newcomers as exit liquidity. Sustainable growth requires incentivizing genuine participation over greed. Alternative models like flat-price presales, vesting schedules, and revenue-based team compensation can foster fairness and long-term viability, paving the way for mainstream adoption.
