This week, we break down the violent selloff across equities and crypto, how real revenue, institutional capital, and RWA-looping are reshaping which assets survive. We also discuss the rise of institutional lending markets, Uniswap’s long-awaited fee switch proposal, and why retail-driven tokenomics are dead while fundamentals and sustainable business models take over. Enjoy!
