01MARKETS & BUSINESS

SOCIETE GÉNERALE BECOMES FIRST MAJOR BANK TO LAUNCH STABLECOIN

Societe Générale is the first major bank to launch a dollar-backed stablecoin on Ethereum and Solana, with public trading set to begin in July. These tokens are classified as e-money under the EU's MiCA framework, offering regulated dollar liquidity to corporates, financial institutions, and crypto exchanges. Reserves will be custodied by BNY Mellon, initially held in cash and later invested in yield-bearing assets, enabling use cases from trading and cross-border payments to collateral management. The coin will be called “USD CoinVertible.”

02INNOVATION & LAUNCHES

PAY-TO-LEARN: MULTI-AGENT FINE TUNING WITH MICROTRANSACTIONS

This onchain framework allows “student” language models to automatically pay specialist evaluator agents in sub-cent USDC micropayments on Base for structured feedback, eliminating the $2–5 per-annotator bottleneck of RLHF. By choosing evaluators from openly published agent cards, models create a live marketplace that rewards high-quality, domain-specific judgment and maintains feedback relevance as capabilities improve, addressing reward-model drift and echo-chamber issues noted in prior multi-judge research. Early results show orders-of-magnitude cost savings and iterative performance gains, with economic selection preserving evaluator diversity and driving continual improvement. The system is already integrated into Nous Research's Atropos RL framework.

03GUIDES & TUTORIALS

BLUEPRINT TO BUILDING WEALTH IN WEB3

To go from $0 to $1 million in crypto, one should begin with zero-cost opportunities like social-fi content creation and testnets, then reinvest small earnings into on-chain activity and airdrops, and gradually scale into DeFi, NFTs, stablecoin farming, and more advanced strategies as capital grows. At each stage, have a mindset of consistency, adaptability, action, and profit-taking, while avoiding common pitfalls like leverage, memecoins, and security exploits. At 100k, consolidate gains through diversified stablecoin and DeFi yields, Bitcoin/Ethereum DCA, and traditional assets, before finally preserving wealth via broad diversification and real-world investments.

STATE OF DEFAI Q2/2025

After an initial Q1 surge around AI abstraction layers that suffered decision paralysis and valuations sell-offs, DeFAI projects in Q2 have pivoted to specialized discovery layers for trading and yield-farming alpha. AI is now being embedded directly into existing DeFi workflows via HUD overlays, while fully autonomous, noncustodial agents like Giza's zkML-driven vault optimizers manage over $70 million in volume. Simultaneously, major DeFi protocols (BasisOS, Zerion, Vectis, and Mode) are rolling out AI roadmaps, from ML autopilots to price-predictive vaults, to boost yield and UX. Looking ahead, the convergence of traditional analytics with AI interfaces and robust, verifiable DeFAI foundations is poised to drive the next wave of value accrual as fundamentals regain favor.

04MISCELLANEOUS

ETHEREUM IS HITTING A CRITICAL INFLECTION POINT

Ethereum is moving beyond speculative hype toward real financial innovation, driven by rising institutional adoption of stablecoins, tokenization, and blockchain-based capital markets. With ETH ETFs seeing $815M in inflows over 20 days and fintechs like Visa, Stripe, and Robinhood building onchain, Ethereum is becoming the operating layer for a new financial system. If stablecoin activity is valuable, then so is Ethereum, marking a critical shift in how investors perceive network assets like ETH.

THE GREAT COMEBACK OF DAOS.FUN

DAOs.fun's journey began as Tailwind Labs, a Cosmos-based wallet that pivoted through a Sei wallet and a memecoin launchpad before finding product-market fit in investment DAOs. In its final turnaround, the team launched ai16z on Solana using the ElizaOS framework for autonomous AI agents, earning 7,000 GitHub stars in one month and reaching an $800 M market cap. The success spurred a wave of new DAO launches, democratizing on-chain fund management.
