@coinbureau The issuer pushback is part of the story too.
The tokenization that lasts will probably be built with companies and regulators, so holders know exactly what they own.
Reply to @coinbureau: A month ago, we warned that “MASS TOKENIZATION” was coming.
Today, it’s breaking records, and the numbers are getting hard to ignore.
Stocks. Bonds. Bank deposits. Investment funds.
The way we invest and move money is changing.
You could end up using blockchain without even knowing it.
What’s already changing:
Wall Street is going onchain, with the NYSE’s parent company and OKX originally proposing over 60 US stocks as tokens
Government debt is going onchain, with Hong Kong issuing a RECORD $2.6 BILLION digital bond and Luxembourg issuing €1.7 BILLION
Tokenized stocks and ETFs total $3.53 BILLION across 4.42 MILLION holder addresses, per RWA(.)xyz
Bank dollars are going onchain as JPMorgan expands JPM Coin to Ethereum for institutional clients
The pushback is also growing, with Microsoft, Alphabet, Goldman Sachs and Wells Fargo among 22 companies opposing tokens of their shares on the planned OKXICE venue
Investment funds are following, with Franklin Templeton’s Singapore fund reportedly adding roughly $150 MILLION in fund shares on the XRP Ledger
Trading hours are stretching, with Nasdaq targeting 23 hours of weekday trading from December 6
Britain is preparing its own digital government bond pilot, with six banks appointed to lead it
Most trades are fractional, with about 80% of tokenized stock trades in an IMF study smaller than one share
Buying a stock token does not necessarily make you a direct shareholder in the company

I don't know why I bother, but I'll point out all the stuff in your latest claim that you know is nonsense yet again:
"You just said the platform’s own speech can’t conceivably create liability."
And I'll note that you neither agreed with that claim nor disagreed with it. You just moved on to your next talking point.
"Then 230 adds nothing there."
You absolutely know that's not true. Among the dozens of ways 230 could add something would be in a case like Stratton Oakmont where the liabilty was not for Prodigy's own speech.
"Yet platforms invoke it for that very conduct, and no newspaper or bookstore gets it."
I've already explained to you several times, and you have never even disagreed, that newspapers and bookstores do get similar immunity. And this is in a reply after you didn't take issue with my claim that there would almost never be immunity for their original speech anyway. So this is like triply nonsensical.
"Their own speech, plus an immunity no other publisher has. That’s the chart."
As you fully know, none of that is even remotely close to true. Speakers are also publishers. And if I hand you a copy of a book I bought and tell you, "I think you should read this book", I am a speaker and a publisher. I have no legal obligation whatsoever to investigate the lawfulness of the contents of the book and only the same kinds of legal obligations (such as complying with Federal criminal law on child pornography) that social media companies also have.
You know all this is complete nonsense. It's been explained to you several times. You've never even really disagreed, you just pivot to a different talking point.
I keep bothering to give you reasoned replies because I find it hard to believe someone can write in complete sentences and still be so completely immune to reason.

And, again for anyone who actually cares about this issue, you are *well* aware that bookstores *do* get substantially the same kinds of immunities.
A bookstore can pick and choose what books to sell however it wants. A bookstore can recommend or not recommend books as they please. A bookstore can have a "best reads" shelf and put whatever books on it they want. A bookstore can remove books they think are offensive or don't want to provide for any reason at all.
And even with all of this, they have no legal obligation to investigate whether any of the books they sell contain statements that are defamatory or fraudulent prior to putting them on their shelves. And for all of obligations that they do have (for example, not to violate Federal criminal laws regarding things like child pornography), there are analogous legal obligations that social media providers do have.

1. Vulnerabilities, Cybersecurity and old tokens: ethereum:0x9e46a38f5daabe8683e10793b06749eef7d733d1
Knowing my fiery passion about being max long cybersecurity, a few good ppl brought this to my attention in a gc as essentially the only viable exposure in crypto (one could argue XMR is also one), with a real business (@PolySwarm) and old token = gud token as of these times.
I do not disagree, however, the value accrual of NCT is very flebile, it's mostly a reward token and there's virtually no liquidity on DEXs (although coinbase + upbit august listing makes up for a good potential pump I guess).
I even went as far as joining their discord to check out if there's any plan for the token but i didn't see anything. Should this change, this is a max bid, before then, it can be mostly a very illiquid narrative play.
2. ethereum:0x0d8775f648430679a709e98d2b0cb6250d2887ef Roadmap 4.0
When i first started pointing out about BAT, i ended up having a lot of side conversation (well, mostly about the first pump). My position didn't really change: this is going to be one of the liquid plays with most potential for this quarter / q1, as Brave 4.0 slowly rolls out.
It's going to take some time, but a decent execution on Pay + Wallet + Rewards, not even a good one, is going to have a big impact. Especially if actions follow words, re-establishing alignment between the product and the token will really go far.
Brave is one of the most used browsers and it's very liked, if the token manages to become a half-decent way of expressing a directional belief on the product, it's going to be good.
One thing i cautioned about is sudden price pumps, i do believe that here a slow up-build in price will be much healthier than a sudden repricing (as in, i think it can lead to far higher end results, vs jigsaw) and that's why should i wake up one day with BAT up 50% in 24h, i'll surely tp, just like i'll buy dips at relevant levels if it goes down significantly.
3. Prediction Markets noise, Defillama's distribution: base:0x21cfcfc3d8f98fc728f48341d10ad8283f6eb7ab
This is maybe an interesting one:
- @llamaonthebrink is a good lad;
- @DefiLlama integration of Trueo ups its distribution by a lot and makes it really interesting
- there is a lot of talk about and around Prediction Markets (again) mainly due to Polymarket's insider manuvers over the control of the company
- Trueo is still trading at a fraction of competition (i'm not even talking about Kalshi/Polymarket, i'm talking about the C-tier ones)
Again, very illiquid token, but i think here the chances of a good pump outweights the risk (capped to -100% afterall). I'm long.
4. Extra collection of thoughts: ethereum:0x6e2a43be0b1d33b726f0ca3b8de60b3482b8b050 , $XTEN, ethereum:0x88800092ff476844f74dc2fc427974bbee2794ae
These are some tickers that i looked into for miscellaneous reasons.
Starting from the first...
- $XTEN / Extended, they migrated to Arc and announced the upcoming token in November, with 30% earmarked for the airdrop.
I do not have much to say about this yet, i've had a rollercoaster of a relationship with Extended as i went from being very bullish and heavily using it at the beginning (very painful UX back then), to be quite more skeptical (the relationship with Revolut being constantly flaunted around, the eToro tease that later on materialized, the spreads, liquidity and funding not improving), to be once again more positive.
I've disposed of a chunk of my points OTC, and at the moment Polymarket is not too bullish on Extended upcoming valuation (>$300m is merely 35%) and i do expect a massive dump of airdrop tokens, however, should it really go low low, i may be a buyer once the avalanche sets in.
The team did have some good execution on the two migrations, the Arc positioning is not bad (and probably came with financial strings attached) and the European distribution is not bad either (and i'm very bullish on distribution as a moat, even more than product often).
- ethereum:0x6e2a43be0b1d33b726f0ca3b8de60b3482b8b050 / Arkham, one of the most used non-trading platforms in crypto, recently announced their Enterprise plans and essentially the sunset of the free-for-all games. Very understandable as they probably have massive infrastructural expenses and they need to somewhat monetize, with plans for side monetization (via perps) having failed.
The struggle here is that the token has no value accrual, the team needs funding (and therefore will probably keep dumping) and i'm not sure i see an easy pathway for Arkham to sustainability (and even value accrual) that doesn't pass by essentially becoming a fed platform (but for real).
Regardless, i don't hate the chart, it has been going horizontal for a while, and i'm gonna take a small punt here. Things are moving (re: monetization) and while i doubt that this will bring a lot of money to the platform, changes can be a positive signal compared to stagnation. I'm ready to close should it not play out.
- ethereum:0x88800092ff476844f74dc2fc427974bbee2794ae / Ambire, here i'm more looking for opinion as i read more and more positive opinions about Ambire, but essentially after trying it a little bit (admittedly not much) i didn't notice particular UX improvements over Rabby and i see way too much bullishness on CT. This clearly means that i'm missing something (it may even just be a round eh), what is it?
Last week i've also closed filecoin:native at a loss, unfortunately the market didn't care of the end of the unlocks.
5. Options: ethereum:0x232ce3bd40fcd6f80f3d55a522d03f25df784ee2 beyond binaries, ethereum:0xb32e10022ffbedfe10bc818a1c7e67d9d87e0fa7 Post-S3
I'm not sure how much push options can really get in crypto, sometimes i do use them, but i'm definitely more of a perp enjoyooor.
Undoubtedly though, people do like options.
And undoubtedly, the adoption of options (which has been touted at least 8 or more times in the cycles i've been in) is underpriced.
We always talked in the past about ethereum:0xb1d1eae60eea9525032a6dcb4c1ce336a1de71be which is great. However, i'm trying to also look beyond that, because it had a crazy run and it needs to probably rest a bit (or maybe it already rested enough, it's been a while it didn't have some crazy volatility), but anyway running some more ideas.
Lighter's binaries are - i think - of none's interest. It's essentially prediction market stuff. However, what's interesting is real uncapped options, especially if they can get a hold of a bit of the RH cohort of degens.
It increasingly (and predictably) looks like RH is just going fully in-house for the most important stuff (eh surprise), but still, the Lighter connection is indeed there, and they may want to help pump their bags somehow.
The other token is ethereum:0xb32e10022ffbedfe10bc818a1c7e67d9d87e0fa7 from Paradex.
I've already expressed my thoughts on both the team, the execution and the product so i won't repeat myself. It's a matter of fact that they're one of the largest venues for options. Yes, it's a fraction of Derive's volume and fees, and yes DIME is already trading at a premium for that fraction.
However, their S3 is over but rewards not yet distributed, and i think this token can belong to the trio of tickers to keep an eye on for options expansion, with potentially good entries after S3 airdrop comes (and gets jeeted on a paperthin liquidity).
6. AI Plays: is the music slowing?
Obviously cracks are showing up everywhere in TradFi and even Anthropic seems to be accelerating their IPO plans (or just keen on executing them on time).
This obviously affects what happens onchain too (a little bit) with AI runners being very colder compared to what they would have been a few months ago (let alone in late 2024 / early 2025).
Both the tickers indicated in the title enjoyed already some bumpy upside, and while i managed to only play a little bit of the first, i captured a good bounce on the second.
I trimmed both my ORBIO and SURPLUS bags, but there are also reasons to be positive: both platforms are liked and used, surplus is transitioning from a full-blown meme with the team having near to no stake in to a real (still memetic, in terms of value accrual) token that the team will be able to jeet (and will have an interest in pumping).
It's probably for the best that surplus gets transitioned via supply expansion in a real token rather than just dismissed in favor of a new launch.
Essentially these are not really huge plays for me, but they're the small tokens i like the most in this corner of the market. There's also a lot of talk about Phala recently, but i didn't make it in time to dig in before the market puked the latest news on the chart, so i'll check in some more in the next days.
7. $MSTR back at 1.16x
Now, this is a dangerous game, because mNAV = 1.16x is high for recent times, but we know very well it's not high by average historical standards - at all.
And being moderately bullish BTC these days, it's maybe not that easy of a play.
However, i'm comfortable to start shorting the premium again here. If i'm wrong, i'll lose money, so what. I think the DAT narrative is completely cooked for good, and while there'll always be cycles of booms and busts for stuff like MSTR, i do think historical averages for mNAV premium shouldn't be regarded as reliable point of reference, but rather a much more compressed level of this.
We can add the fact that MSTR is set to be delisted at the end of November (final list on 11 November and implementation on the 30th), with MSCI funds holding around $1.9b of stocks they'll have to dump.
8. Short side: near:native and ripple:native what's below the line
I don't remember a single trade i won when me and hedgehog were publicly on the same trade, however, i'm indeed short NEAR (again).
I think the narrative is gone, the ZEC correlation is cold, the pump was mostly fugazi and the token tried to break 4.6$ already like... 7 or 8 times?
There's the abyss below that and i think this time it'll get it.
Similar story for XRP, i think this is still on its way to 0.5/7s, it's just going to be more of a rollercoaster, but every cycle is the same and this won't be different. Yes FDV is a meme when the token is much less liquid, yes there's also a lot of XRP used as collateral at Maple and other insti lending platforms and desks, but yes, XRP will slowly grind down back to square 2 imo.
It's not always easy to find longs to hedge these kind of plays, aside from BTC and maybe ETH... HYPE has been a good one so far, but right now it's going through some weakness (ig increased competition, some fears that the airdrop is actually going to happen, papertrade burning a bit of the attention around the ecosystem -> people let it rest for a while).
9. Old/new lessons: initia:native
Just a small note for frens, this is an easy lesson to learn but also an easy lesson to forget, and everybody always do this. On hacks, you short first, then you get out of the door fast and you do not play it right away again.
This is not necessarily true on tokens that are large, liquid and crowded (see zcash:native, you could be very late at the short when they found the first privacy pool vulnerability, and be profitable), but it's always always true for small illiquid tokens.
Here it's not even a given that the token will dump, although it's easier for it to dump on perps at least.
Squeezing the late shorters becomes a much easier achievement for people who want, when the supply is already cornered enough or simply just illiquid.
Be early, leave early.
Sometimes you get another chance later on, when the jigsaw of liquidations is over.
As always, have a good night

Crypto News - 23 October 2026
The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency issued final regulations on October 21 implementing the GENIUS Act for payment stablecoins under its supervision. The rules cover reserve backing, redemptions, custody, risk management, audits and the approval process for eligible issuers, including banks and certain nonbank firms. They take effect on January 18, 2027, alongside the law itself. Separate rulemaking will address anti-money-laundering and sanctions requirements, so implementation work is not yet complete. For banks, payment companies and consumers, the decision provides a clearer federal framework for issuing and using regulated dollar-backed tokens.
Crypto Sentiment Falls Back to Neutral as ETF Flows Reverse
Crypto market sentiment cooled sharply this week, with Alternative.me's Fear & Greed Index falling to 50, or Neutral, on October 23, compared with 68 a day earlier, 63 a week earlier and 71 a month earlier. U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs attracted more than $1.07 billion from Monday through Wednesday, helped by strong buying in BlackRock's IBIT. That momentum reversed Thursday, when the funds recorded $635.6 million in net withdrawals, led by IBIT and Fidelity's FBTC. The four-day balance remained positive at $439.1 million, but the reversal highlighted uncertain investor appetite. The sentiment reading reflects a more cautious market mood.
Banks Expand Stablecoin Payments Across Asia
Asia's regulated digital-money push gained momentum on October 23 as HSBC launched RedCoin, a Hong Kong dollar stablecoin for its PayMe payments platform. Users are expected to gain in-app stablecoin wallets in the coming days, enabling person-to-person transfers and payments across PayMe's merchant network. Separately, Singapore's central bank announced that Malaysia and Thailand's central banks had joined its BLOOM initiative to explore cross-border settlement using regulated stablecoins and tokenized deposits. The expanded project includes Ripple, Visa, Mastercard and financial institutions. Together, the announcements show banks and payment networks exploring digital money for everyday commerce and international transfers.
U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs opened Monday with $526.7 million in net inflows, driven by $665.2 million entering BlackRock's IBIT, despite outflows from Fidelity's FBTC ($83.6 million) and Grayscale's GBTC ($54.9 million). Tuesday saw inflows slow to $23.2 million, led by IBIT ($29.9 million), while Bitwise's BITB recorded $10.3 million in outflows. Wednesday brought another strong session with $524.8 million in net inflows, supported by IBIT ($235.0 million), FBTC ($212.7 million) and GBTC ($32.6 million). Thursday reversed the trend sharply with $635.6 million in net outflows, driven by IBIT ($254.1 million), FBTC ($217.5 million) and ARKB ($109.4 million). Overall, Bitcoin ETFs recorded approximately $439.1 million in net inflows from Monday through Thursday, despite substantial selling pressure late in the week. Friday's figures remain incomplete and are awaiting final issuer reporting, including IBIT.
U.S. spot Ethereum ETFs opened Monday with $103.3 million in net outflows, led by BlackRock's ETHA ($95.4 million), Fidelity's FETH ($6.0 million) and ETHIE ($1.9 million). Tuesday extended the decline with another $26.1 million in net outflows, as ETHA shed $33.0 million, partly offset by inflows into FETH ($3.6 million) and Grayscale's ETH fund ($3.3 million). Wednesday brought a brief reversal with $14.9 million in net inflows, supported by Grayscale's ETH fund ($28.1 million) and FETH ($13.0 million), despite $29.3 million leaving ETHA. Thursday saw renewed selling pressure with $110.6 million in net outflows, driven by ETHA ($75.5 million), ETHB ($17.2 million), Grayscale's ETH fund ($10.7 million) and ETHIE ($9.6 million). Overall, Ethereum ETFs recorded approximately $225.1 million in net outflows from Monday through Thursday, reflecting persistent institutional selling pressure despite Wednesday's modest recovery. Friday's figures remain incomplete and are awaiting final issuer reporting, including ETHA.
Metal DAO (MTL) led the 13 tracked cryptocurrencies this week with a 3.0% seven-day gain, outperforming a broadly weaker market. XRP followed with a 0.7% increase, while Solana managed a modest 0.4% advance, making these the only three tokens in positive territory. Bitcoin (-0.2%) and Ethereum (-0.4%) held relatively steady, while Dogecoin (-1.1%), Stellar (-2.4%) and Litecoin (-2.6%) posted moderate declines. Losses were more pronounced among smaller tokens, including Metal Blockchain (-6.4%), XPR Network (-13.4%) and LOAN Protocol (-14.4%). The results highlight selective resilience as broader crypto market sentiment weakened.

Shocking that the same tools would work in the same way for both good guys and bad guys. Nike sneakers work great for terrorists. Shame on them.
"... and that when Meta suspected someone was a fraudster, it sometimes just charged them extra instead of kicking them off."
One of the key ways you stop low-profit crime is to make it more expensive. If mail cost $1, it would stop a lot more junk mail than valuable mail. One of the reasons we see so much email spam is because it is so cheap. This is actually a good tool because it is less likely to stop valuable speech and more likely to stop worthless and annoying speech.
