yesterday 93 people called rugs on the free board. 2 people boosted. @eddyson_b boosted a -$425K call with 0.095 SOL and took the 4 SOL pool. 44x. @dreamlucide000 called a -$8.9M rug for free and took 1 SOL. paid on-chain. same call with one boost would have been 4 SOL. next round opens 20:00 UTC tonight. the boosted board is empty. that's the edge.

Search, compare, buy, all in one conversation. AI is quickly becoming the new front door to online shopping. In July 2026, AI-driven retail traffic grew 62% YoY. AI-referred visitors converted at a rate 60% higher than non-AI traffic, a gap that has completely reversed in just one year. If this continues, e-commerce competition may shift from owning traffic to becoming the product, data source, or checkout destination that AI recommends by default. Source: @Adobe

wishing for an agent to check holders and liquidity before you ape in makes sense, but relying on standard tools is a trap since former insiders just leaked that platforms like Bubblemaps took $45k/mo to help bundler devs hide, with receipts on trapmap.fun/boycottbubblemap shared by @jujudog69

One thing working in crypto communications has taught me: just because something makes sense to us doesn’t mean it makes sense to everyone else. So I’m curious - what do you think the crypto industry still struggles to explain?

What will drive the next wave of crypto valuations? As institutional capital moves deeper into crypto, the market is shifting from narrative-driven valuations toward measurable fundamentals, real demand, and sustainable value capture. In our latest Gate Ventures research, we explore three investment themes shaping this cycle: πŸ”Ή Protocol Revenue & Token Value Capture β€” Why sustainable cash flows, buybacks, and tokenholder economics matter. πŸ”Ή The Full Tokenization Stack β€” Why the next RWA opportunity goes beyond issuance to liquidity, lending, and structured financial markets. πŸ”Ή Privacy as Financial Infrastructure β€” Why confidential execution, verifiable settlement, and selective disclosure are becoming essential for institutions and AI agents. The key question is no longer just what can be tokenized, but what can generate real economic value β€” and capture it sustainably. πŸ“– Read the full Gate Ventures research for deeper insights, case studies, and investment implications: β¬‡οΈπŸ”—

β€œWe want Bitcoin to become the main USDT layer.” β€” Viktor Ihnatiuk, Co-Founder of UTEXO @VIhnatiuk @utexocom Why Bitcoin? As Viktor explains, USDT was originally launched on Bitcoin, and the technology to bring it back is finally ready β€” with transfers in just 50–100 milliseconds, near-zero fees, and privacy without compromising compliance. In this episode of the Gate Ventures Podcast, Viktor shares his vision for how RGB and the Lightning Network could transform Bitcoin into a fast, private settlement layer for USDT, along with his ambitious goal of bringing $10–20 billion in USDT TVL to Bitcoin within the next 12 months. We also cover: πŸ”Ή Private but compliant: Only the sender and receiver see the transaction, while bad actors can still be blacklisted πŸ”Ή How private OTC trading on RGB could put an end to the β€œBlackRock is dumping” FUD πŸ”Ή Instant cross-exchange arbitrage: UTEXO could serve as a programmable prime broker for HFT traders πŸ”Ή Why AI agents will choose Bitcoin for payments, and how x402 is coming to Bitcoin The full episode is now available on YouTube and Spotify! 🎬 YouTube: youtu.be/UJZhRIbGbl0?si=KxJS… 🎧 Spotify: open.spotify.com/episode/196… πŸ“ Key Takeaways: gate.com/blog/bringing-usdt-…
