ONDO Token - Critical Data There’s much news lately about the ONDO Token. As a potential investor, here’s data you should know. $ONDO is a governance token on Ethereum (ERC-20), not a claim on Ondo’s products or cash flow. What ONDO Token Does Today (Official use, from Ondo Foundation docs): 1) Vote in the Ondo DAO and on Flux Finance (*) 2) Delegate that vote (*) Locked tokens can vote That’s it as of Sept 2026. - You do not need ONDO to mint, hold, or redeem USDY, OUSG, or Ondo stocks. - ONDO is not gas. - ONDO is not staked to secure Ondo Chain—validators stake tokenized RWAs, not ONDO. - No staking yield, no fee share, no buybacks, no burns. - The fee switch is off. Governance is gated: a proposal needs 100 million ONDO. Independent reviews note little on-chain DAO activity since 2024. Intrinsic Value: There is no cash-flow intrinsic value. ONDO is not equity, not a share of USDY/OUSG, and not redeemable for Treasuries. Docs are explicit: no rights to revenue, dividends, or yield. - A future fee switch or Ondo Chain role is an option, not a live mechanism - Large unlocks remain on the calendar (notably around Jan 2027 and Jan 2028). That supply pressure is scheduled. Reasons to Own ONDO Token: • Option on later value capture — fee switch, buybacks, or a hard role on Ondo Chain. Not live now. • Liquid proxy on “Ondo wins tokenization” if you cannot get private equity of Ondo Finance. • Governance only if you are large enough to matter • Trading liquidity around RWA news Bottom line: Ondo the platform is a real RWA issuer. $ONDO the Ethereum ERC-20 sits next to that business, not inside its P&L. Own it for sector beta or a future governance payout—not for yield. cc: @PaulBarron #ONDO #RWA #TokenizedTreasuries #USDY #OUSG #Tokenomics #Ethereum #Crypto #DeFi

The Ondo–BlackRock story didn’t start today. It started with collateral — and one hire. The people trail is thinner than the product trail — but it’s real: • Katie Wheeler — former BlackRock VP, later Circle Web3 BD, joined Ondo Q1 2024 as VP Partnerships. Now MD, Global Partnerships. The clearest HR bridge between the two firms. • Samara Cohen — BlackRock Global Head of Market Development. Shared the Ondo Summit stage with Ian De Bode (Feb 2026). Same rooms, not the same payroll. • Lisa O’Connor — BlackRock Global Head of Model Portfolio Solutions. The name on today’s strategies. She didn’t move to Ondo. She wrote the recipes Ondo wrapped. Product history (what everyone else is skipping): 2023: OUSG launches on BlackRock’s SHV ETF. Mar 2024: BUIDL live. Ondo parks ~$95M of OUSG in it → 24/7 mint/redeem. First big crypto-native BUIDL client. 2025: Same names on stages and advisor lists — OUSG, Ondo Chain, Nexus. 2026: Tokenized IBIT, then IVV. DTCC table next to BlackRock. Today: first BlackRock-designed portfolios as single onchain tokens (BLKHIon / BLKDIGon / BLKGRWon). From using BlackRock funds as backing → one ex-BlackRock operator inside Ondo → BlackRock writing the allocation models Ondo puts onchain. #ONDO #BlackRock #RWA #Tokenization #BUIDL

I don’t own a lot of single stocks, but SECZ is in my top five. A real investment in the future of finance. Definitely not a trade for me. I #HODL this stock.

Silver Just Got a Factory Date: Samsung’s Solid-State Batteries Samsung SDI targets H2 2027 mass production of sulfide all-solid-state batteries at Ulsan. CEO Noh Tae-moon wants Ulsan first in the world to real volume. Stacker angle: these are not “a little silver in the wiring.” Samsung’s design uses a paper-thin silver-carbon (Ag-C) layer so lithium plates evenly instead of growing dendrites. That layer is why they get called silver-intensive SSBs. What the cell is built to do: • Target density above 900 Wh/L • Fast charge in the ~9-minute, 8–80% window • First commercial use likely humanoid / Physical AI pouches, then EV prismatics, later wearables • The underrated feature: safety. No flammable liquid electrolyte. Harder to leak, vent, or go thermal-runaway. “Doesn’t spontaneously combust” is the product pitch robots and EVs actually buy. Silver math (Samsung has never published grams — working reconstruction, not a spec): • ~5 g Ag per large cell, ~10 g per kWh, ~1 kg (~32 oz) per 100 kWh EV pacK • Today’s liquid Li-ion EV: ~25–50 g in electronics. Ramp, not a day-one gigafactory: • H2 2027: robots and qualification packs • 2028: first meaningful GWh if yields hold • Year-one Ulsan silver is tens of thousands of ounces a month. • The demand event is cloned lines + cars, not the first robot pouch Watch three things: • Does the production cell still use Ag-C, or do they engineer silver out? • Do SKUs stay in robot pouches, or do EV prismatics ship? • Do they copy Ulsan, or does sulfide yield keep this boutique? Ulsan is a date and a chemistry, not a 2027 squeeze by itself. It is the first time a major cell maker put a factory calendar on a silver-bearing anode. #Silver #SSB #SolidStateBattery #SamsungSDI #Ulsan #SilverStackers #IndustrialSilver #PhysicalAI #EVBatteries Samsung SDI Korea sites and liquid vs solid-state layout:

The repricing of XRP is imminent. Just Today, over 800M XRP was moved off exchanges into offline storage. 100M per wallet. That means 93% or 93M XRP total supply is held in mega whale wallets include escrow. That leaves 7% or 7B of “float” or available supply for the rest of us. So whales moved 11.5% of XRP float to cold storage in one day. Massively Bullish. #xrp $xrp #xrp_army #xrparmy

Big Banks killed Clarity. They didn’t want the competition. What a stupid move. Here comes massive competition! #crypto #bigbanks #clarity

Elizabeth Warren and Senate Democrats are the reason Clarity likely won’t pass today. They are in the pocket of big banks and don’t care about USA global competitiveness. They hate crypto and want to ban it. cnbc.com/2026/09/14/warren-c…

Watch Clarity Act Voting on CSPAN2 ~ 2pm Tuesday. The CLARITY Act cloture vote is scheduled for Tues, Sept. 15, 2026 at 2:15 p.m. ET. That is a procedural vote on cloture on the motion to proceed to H.R. 3633 (the Digital Asset Market Clarity Act). It needs 60 votes. It is not a final-passage vote. If cloture is invoked, debate can begin and Republicans plan to offer their newly released substitute text. Television / livestream: Senate floor proceedings are covered gavel-to-gavel on C-SPAN 2. You can also watch on c-span.org and the C-SPAN app.

If you ask me, the US Open men’s final was fought last night — in a quarterfinal. The 5-set, 4.5-hour swagger-filled slugfest ran from 11pm until 3:30am. Huge rallies. Lines painted. Serves/aces up to 149 mph. It ended in a 10-point 5th-set tiebreak, Shelton fighting through to 10-8. Best match of this Open. Best I’ve seen in years. The 22-year-old American beat the No. 2 seed, the 2-time defending US Open champ widely favored to win it again. Alcaraz streaks Shelton ended last night: • Defending US Open champion (2024-2025) • 18-match Grand Slam winning streak • 4 consecutive Grand Slam finals • First Slam loss to an American (was 13–0 vs U.S. men at majors) • First Slam loss to a lefty (14 in a row vs left-handers) • 25–0 at the US Open after winning the opening set LFG 🇺🇸 USA!! #USOpen #Shelton #Alcaraz #Tennis #USA

LABOR DAY KEY FACTS Labor Day didn’t start as a long weekend. It began Sept. 5, 1882, when 10,000+ New York workers took an unpaid day to march. They were fighting 12-hour days, 7-day weeks, and kids as young as 5 working in mills and mines. Oregon made it official in 1887. Congress followed in 1894 amid the Pullman Strike. A holiday born from real struggle and by real people. #LaborDay #LaborDayHistory #USHistory #WorkersRights

Canton Coin ($CC) — Bearish Thesis for Retail Investors Setup: $CC is not a privacy coin and not equity in Digital Asset. It’s metered gas for the public Global Synchronizer. Institutions pay USD-priced traffic, convert that into $CC, and burn it. New $CC is minted on a published curve to Super Validators, validators, and featured apps. Circ. ~39.5B. Price ~$0.11. Cap ~$4.2B. No premine. No hard cap. Net supply = mint minus burn. Bear case (the one that matters): Most “trillions on Canton” can sit on private domains and never touch $CC. Demand is high-velocity — buy, convert to traffic, burn. Nobody has to warehouse the token. Gross issuance in this tranche is still large (~10B/yr ceiling; apps take ~62%). Fees can rank near the top of crypto and the coin can still go nowhere if mint > burn. Retail is the float that absorbs operator/app emissions. Bull case: If DTCC Treasuries, Broadridge-style repo, bank deposits, and collateral keep routing through the paid public layer, USD fees rise, more $CC gets destroyed, and the 2029 issuance cut shrinks the faucet. Burn-mint equilibrium > 1 is the whole thesis. Famous counterparties + actual fee prints are why this isn’t a zero. Recommendation: Don’t own $CC because Goldman/DTCC are on the network. Own it only if you will track one ratio: USD burned vs USD minted, 90 days trailing. Until burn ≥ mint, you’re funding the subsidy. Bearish on passive retail holding from here. The network can win and the token still lose. If BME flips and stays flipped, revisit. Until then, counterparties ≠ coupon. $CC #Canton #CantonNetwork #CantonCoin #RWA #Tokenomics #Crypto #InstitutionalCrypto

🐋 XRP Whales vs Minnows: Where Do You Rank on the XRP Rich List? Here’s the reality of XRP wallet distribution right now (Aug. 18 2026, ~8.06 million funded accounts): • Top 10%: ~2,140 XRP • Top 5%: ~7,500 XRP • Top 1%: ~44,800 XRP • Top 0.5%: ~80,100 XRP • Top 0.1%: ~277,000 XRP • Top 0.05%: ~500,000 XRP • Top 0.01%: ~3.8 million XRP • Top 0.005%: ~16.7 million XRP • Top 0.001%: ~110 million XRP • Top 0.0005%: ~450–500 million XRP • Top 0.0001%: ~1.7–1.8 billion XRP • Top 0.00005%: ~5 billion XRP Now for the Minnows… Most of the network is swimming in the shallow end. The vast majority of wallets hold under 100 XRP. In fact, if you’re sitting on even a few thousand XRP, you’re already ahead of a huge portion of the ledger. The top 10% starts at just over 2,100 XRP — a level most serious holders have already passed. The real story for everyday XRP holders isn’t the multi-billion wallets at the very top. It’s how accessible the upper tiers still are once you move past the dust accounts. A solid five-figure bag puts you in RARE company. BUT set goals and #KeepStacking because most the “minnows” never leave the bottom half of the ocean. #XRP #XRPL #XRPArmy #Ripple #Crypto #XRPCommunity #Whales cc @XRParmy @allthemoney @Chloe_XRPL @XRPDegens @Bird_XRPL @sentosumosaba @xrp_rich_bot
