Base is for Everyone
+ the SOL trenches continue to heat up
In Partnership with $IO
IO continues its network earnings momentum, growing 18% in the past month. Meanwhile the BD team also keeps signing meaningful partnerships, with the most recent from Nillion

Base is for Everyone
Equities are trading slightly up this morning, as is BTC which is back to $84.7k. ETH remained flat at ~$1.6k and SOL was up 7% to $133. The BTC ETFs have seen inflows actually stay positive both on the month and YTD, with IBIT receiving $2.4bn this year (likely explaining some of the strength we’ve seen so far). Traders are now hoping we see some of the Gold perma bid (Gold +42% over the past year) spill over to BTC.

Crime szn remains in full swing, with Trump launching SMAs for stocks that will benefit from his tariff policies. Trump also continues to call for the termination of Powell. Raydium responded to PumpFun’s DEX launch with its own launchpad. And alts remain quiet despite strong BTC and improving trenches, with OTHERS still down on the week, and only a few spots of strength on the day (incl XCN, WAL and HYPE).

Chart of the Day with Vertex
If SOL is the casino chain, and the casino is heating up, could it be time for SOL to ride again? The $100-120 level was still defended during the recent bloodbath, and in general SOL looks sendy. Try app.vertexprotocol.com and trade SOL with up to 10x leverage.

The trenches continue to improve every day, with the runner of the day being Base is for everyone. The token went from $18mm to $1mm yesterday (and the timeline was in tears), but it has since run it all the way back to $17mm so far. The SOL trenches also continue to be decent with TIME running to $8mm, Defiant to $23mm and KAPIBALA to $10mm. Other existing tokens doing well incl Italianrot, FAT, GRPH and titcoin.

TIME took the lead for SOL onchain mindshare (while base is for everyone would likely be the overall #1 at this point). Notable attention gainers included Defiant, titcoin, BUTTCOIN and pwease.

TG trench trading volumes continue to experience positive momentum, with volume up over 3x from the lows (helped by the recent base launch).

Axiom volume/fees continued their up only trend on the day as well.

Interesting projects getting smart follows:
SMART MONEY CORNER - Presented by chainEDGE
Smart buying on the day was led by Fartcoin, AGiXT and RAID. Overall activity levels are heating up, which is a good sign from where we were a week ago.

Smart balances still a little skittish, with core positions in Fartcoin and titcoin along with gamble positions in memecoin, TIME and DARK.

Base is for everyone also got some decent smart holdings over the day (despite all of the drama)
