22 Jul 2025
Gm! This week, Rebecca Rettig and Alexander Grieve join Jason to unpack the successful crypto week and the 3 pieces of legislation that have passed and will now impact the way stablecoins and crypto move forward in the US landscape. -- Katana is a DeFi-first chain built for deep liquidity and real yield, by redirecting chain revenue back to active DeFi users. The 1 billion KAT campaign is live. Bridge and deposit directly into vaults in one simple click and start earning immediately on your ETH, BTC, USDC, and more. Go to app.katana.network to check it out. -- EigenLayer just launched EigenCloud - the infrastructure powering crypto's "cloud era." Like AWS transformed the internet, EigenCloud gives any developer cloud-grade programmability with crypto-grade verifiability. EIGEN stakers earn from the entire verifiable economy flywheel. Follow @eigenlayer on X to learn more. This is not financial advice. Investing in blockchain-based assets like the EIGEN token involves significant risk, including the potential loss of your entire investment. By participating, you are agreeing to EigenCloud’s terms and conditions apply. -- Citrea is the first zero-knowledge rollup to enhance the capabilities of Bitcoin blockspace and enable Bitcoin applications (₿apps). Citrea is optimistically verified by Bitcoin, offering the most Bitcoin-secured and native way to extend BTC’s utility to DeFi.
