8.17 All-In Morning Report: Over the weekend, Bitcoin barely moved at all. Everyone’s just waiting for the U.S. stock market to open on weekdays to stir things up. Meanwhile, altcoins are doing their own thing. 1. BTC is seeing all kinds of hard forks starting. Some are saying it’s time to buy the dip, while others are predicting $30k-$50k. Let’s wait and see. 2. ETH looks like there’s no reason to buy it. Everyone’s talking about shorting ETH together because it doesn’t have its own exchange. 3. SOL Foundation still feels dead, but it’s definitely the top choice for startups. 4. Iran says U.S. forces have been expelled and are banned from entering the Strait of Hormuz. 5. Stripe is set to acquire OpenRouter for over $7 billion. Still gotta rely on intermediaries, huh? 6. On-chain tokenized RWA (Real World Assets) market size has grown to $44.7 billion in three years, with Ethereum still the largest settlement layer. Too bad it has zero impact on price. 7. Polymarket launches a Pokémon card prediction market. 8. Prediction market Novig files a lawsuit against Wisconsin’s Attorney General over sports contracts—another round of disputes between the two. 9. Deribit secures a VARA broker-dealer license, enabling access to Coinbase Exchange markets and liquidity. 10. SEC cancels its scheduled crypto regulation rules meeting, delaying the innovation exemption plan yet again. 11. Vaya AI goes live, allowing agents to gain credit lines and complete tasks on behalf of users via the x402 protocol. @base making a comeback? 12. StablecoinX holds $218 million worth of ENA, accounting for about 20% of total supply. Isn’t this ENA treasury already bleeding money? 13. UBS significantly increased its Bitcoin exposure in Q2, with related ETF call option positions surging 24x. 14. Vitalik: The Bitcoin community deserves credit for UTXO innovation. Ethereum scaling will integrate multiple state model advantages. Haven’t seen him in ages. 15. Tom Lee: OpenAI and Robinhood’s success comes from founders’ vision, not reliance on AI tools. No idea what they’re up to every day. 16. @BNBCHAIN sticking to its old tricks, spitting out a whole bunch of nonsense again. -------------- This is just too interesting. Whether it’s on-chain or off-chain, the recent market trends are undeniably good. But remember, you can’t have it all—gaining some things always means losing others. And you know what?
