Anvil, a decentralized finance protocol designed to bring traditional financial services onchain, is gaining traction among businesses and institutional investors. The @anvil_xyz protocol acts as a universal collateral layer, allowing digital assets to secure verifiable financial commitments. That infrastructure has applications wherever businesses accept deposits, extend credit, or facilitate payments. Links below to DYOR. Very interesting...

Most of DeFi uses collateral to take out loans. Anvil uses it to keep promises. Verifiable guarantees for payments and credit, now easy to integrate with our new SDK. Excited to have Founders Fund and an incredible group of partners in the Anvil community.
NEW: $5M from Founders Fund, Pantera and others, plus a brand-new SDK, as Anvil tries to make crypto fade into the background of everyday business. @AcronymFNDN President @trspalding joins @kateirwin to break down how a DeFi letter-of-credit protocol powers buy now, pay later, accounts receivable and reservations, and why Bitcoin, Ethereum and tokenized real-world assets could become on-chain collateral. Watch the full conversation on Markets Outlook: 00:00 - Tyler Spalding Joins Markets Outlook 02:02 - Anvil Launches Its SDK for Builders 03:10 - DeFi's New Playbook: Letters of Credit 04:09 - Founders Fund Leads $5M Anvil Token Round 05:40 - Why a Governance Token Still Makes Sense 09:12 - The First Companies to Integrate 11:42 - What Makes Anvil's On-Chain Collateral Different 14:22 - Collateral in the Age of AI Agents 14:57 - Bitcoin, Ethereum and the Future of Collateral

"It's not like AI will have a credit score or software will have a credit score." @AcronymFNDN President @trspalding makes the case for AI and software pledging collateral to get credit, as Anvil launches its SDK and Founders Fund leads a $5M purchase of ANVL tokens. Thank you to @SPGlobalRatings for being a sponsor of the CoinDesk Media Network.

$GRAB CEO Anthony Tan buys 10,350,000 shares of Grab at $2.89/share. Anthony has been a net seller on the open market since the company went public. This is first open market purchase. Obviously, for him to buy $30M of stock while his net worth is around $300-400M shows how significant of a purchase this is and how much he thinks the market has lost their minds on this name. We are now looking at a public valuation LOWER than what Grab was worth in the private markets. Their enterprise value is $7B and they will profitably do $4.2B of revenue this year. Really nice to see an insider buy — it has been a tough hold but the broader thesis, in my opinion, is being executed in a VERY strong way with a horrible macro backdrop . For a CEO who has been criticized for many insider sells (many of which were pre-planned and also deserved given the guy founded the company and wasn’t liquid for a decade) it is nice to see him put almost 10% of his net worth into the company he started 15 years ago via purchases on the open market. Grab Holdings President & COO Alexander Charles Hungate also bought $867K of $GRAB with 299,571 shares at a $2.89 avg. The markets are the greatest game on earth, they will test your patience, they will turn your stomach inside out, they will drive you crazy as the price of an asset goes down while fundamentals get better, every bear case will make more sense as you see the price go down, but one thing is clear: execution and compounding earnings wins in the end. It’s nice to see a C-suite that believes in that themselves and takes advantage of that with a sizeable amount of their personal networth. The story continues!

$HOOD is heading into the most important weekly close I’ve seen in years. Last time this happened we rallied +700% 🤯 For the first time since 2023 my system is flashing the start of a new Bull Cycle. In the video I walk through the setup and my 6–12 month targets.

Put on your hoodies folks. Robinhood has been traded with $BTC all year. Today, the market is pricing in agentic finance + Trump Accounts + new PDT rules along with various other catalysts to begin the divergence from Bitcoin. First time seeing $90s in 4 months! $HOOD +7%

I’m so serious there needs to be an INVESTIGATION done on these refs. They ignored Mitch Johnson asking for a challenge when the ball went off Chet’s foot, inbounded the ball, and hit him with a technical for complaining. This is EMBARRASSING
The Spurs were trying to challenge because it was CLEARLY off Chet's foot. The refs ignored them and put the ball in play. INSANE
