The US CLARITY Act has an initial vote this week in the Senate. We’re bullish on the Clarity Act - for the future of finance and for American fintech startups. By specifying regulators and clarifying rules, Clarity makes it easier for American founders to build with blockchains.

Gate Ventures Podcast | Episode 14 Scarcity: Alpha, Tungsten, Dinosaur Bones 🌟Guest: Daniel Matuszewski, Co-founder of CMS Holdings @cmsholdings 🎤Host: Jeremy Wallis, Partner at Gate Ventures @Fintechblocks Bitcoin, a 41-pound tungsten cube, and a 70-million-year-old skeleton. Three very different assets, one shared question: what actually makes something scarce — and who decides what that scarcity is worth? Our guest Daniel Matuszewski, Co-founder of CMS Holdings and former Head of Trading at Circle, has spent four cycles trading scarcity in every form it comes in. He joins us to talk about where crypto liquidity goes when it leaves the screen. We'll cover: 🔹Bitcoin, tungsten, fossils — which purchase still best expresses how he thinks about scarce assets 🔹Tungsten cubes: a density meme that became a position, or a real analog to hard money? 🔹Fossil price discovery from Stan to Apex to Gus — how it rhymes with a thin alt going parabolic on one venue 🔹Diligencing a skeleton like a token: provenance, composites, and what the fossil equivalent of a rug looks like 🔹The private fossil market vs. early crypto OTC — same information asymmetry, same counterparty risk, older collateral 🔹Would a "dinosaur index" or tungsten futures market ever be tradable — and what's the next dino trade?

Gate Ventures Podcast | Episode 13 Future of Crypto Banking: Anchorage's Vision for Institutional Digital Assets 🌟Guest: Nathan McCauley, CEO & Co-Founder of Anchorage Digital @Anchorage @nathanmccauley 🎤Host: Jeremy Wallis, Partner of Gate Ventures @Fintechblocks Most institutions still treat digital assets as a specialized allocation, not a line on the balance sheet. The gap isn't conviction — it's banking infrastructure. Custody, settlement, and rails that a regulated institution can actually underwrite. Our guest Nathan McCauley, CEO and Co-Founder of Anchorage Digital — the first federally chartered crypto bank in the U.S. — joins us to unpack what real crypto banking looks like, and what it takes to earn institutional trust at scale. We'll cover: 🔹How a federal banking charter reshapes product, onboarding, and true banking rails — not just custody 🔹The remaining friction for institutions holding, moving, and settling crypto at scale 🔹Where on-chain settlement meets traditional rails, and who bridges the two 🔹Anchorage's place in the stablecoin & tokenized deposit stack as regulated cash products arrive 🔹Hardening security: key management and operational controls after the industry's biggest incidents 🔹Innovation speed vs. the conservative risk posture of a chartered bank 🔹What the industry still underestimates about earning institutional trust 🗓️September 2, 2026, 3 – 4 PM UTC | 11 PM – 12 AM GMT+8 📍Video livestream on Gate Ventures' X — also live on X Spaces.

USD stablecoins dominate 99% of the market. But the other 1% just grew 16x in 3 years. Local currency stablecoin supply is up 70%. On-chain transfer volume went from $600M to $10B. EURC is live on Aave and Visa Direct. BRLA hit $400M+ transfer volume in Feb 2026. XSGD is quietly settling Grab × Alipay+ in the background. And @circle StableFX is now trying to connect all of them — with RFQ mechanics and PvP atomic settlement. Essentially an on-chain FX network. The $9.6T/day FX market hasn't been disrupted yet. But the plumbing is being laid — and most people haven't noticed. Full breakdown 👇 medium.com/@gate_ventures/th…

Its happening. Full StableCoin adoption.

The last month, by the numbers on Provenance Pulse📊 Since our last pulse check at the beginning of March: → added ~$1B in total value locked → MoM chain transaction up 113% → increased network participation by nearly 2,000 With the recent launches of OPEN, and now Figure Forge, @Figure has been driving serious volume on-chain. The credit layer for all of DeFi is being built, and it’s happening on Provenance.

The era of turf wars, duplicative registrations, & differing regulations between @SECgov & @CFTC is over. By aligning regulatory definitions, coordinating oversight, & facilitating data sharing, @ChairmanSelig & I will ensure we deliver the clarity market participants deserve.

1/ MIT just published a paper that shows us why every bank fighting crypto will lose. It's called "Some Simple Economics of AGI" by @ccatalini et al. Here’s a thread on why AI makes crypto inevitable:

BITCOIN HISTORY WAS JUST MADE IN FLORIDA We are now the FIRST STATE to Pass a Stablecoin framework in the nation! It has now passed the Senate and the House, and will be signed by DeSantis within the next 30 days! How was this able to happen? Well, because we are literally the best State in the Union, that is how. Florida has been the leader in the Bitcoin world, and we will continue to be a leader to ensure we are the Bitcoin Capitol of the United States and the World. Thank you to everyone who has been a part of this process, from the small group of power players like @ZachWitkoff and @_jasonholloway to those within Florida's government who have made this such a successful Legislative Session.

🚨 Claude just got access to live stock prices, balance sheets, cash flow statements, and breaking company news in real time. No hallucinations. No guessing. Actual structured financial data. It's called Financial Datasets MCP Server and Wall Street should be nervous: ↓

BREAKING: $2.5 TRILLION CITI JUST ANNOUNCED LIVE AT STRATEGY WORLD IT WILL INTEGRATE #BITCOIN THIS YEAR “WE’RE MAKING BTC BANKABLE." THIS IS HUGE 🚀

🚨BREAKING: Google DeepMind just dropped a research bomb! It's called AlphaEvolve and it's using LLMs to automatically write better AI algorithms than humans can. No manual tuning. No trial-and-error. No human intuition required. AlphaEvolve treats algorithm source code as a genome → LLM acts as the mutation engine → Proposes semantically meaningful code changes → Auto-evaluates fitness on real game benchmarks → Keeps winners, evolves further Here's the wildest part: The AI discovered a warm-start threshold of iteration 500... without being told the evaluation horizon was 1000 iterations. It found non-intuitive mechanisms humans never would have designed manually. The results? VAD-CFR beats every state-of-the-art baseline in 10 of 11 games tested. SHOR-PSRO outperforms Nash, AlphaRank, and PRD solvers. This is the recursion nobody was ready for AI systems that design better AI learning algorithms than the researchers who built them. Paper dropped February 2026. Link in first comment.
