Cardano lance le protocole Cardinal, permettant l’utilisation du BTC dans la DeFi sans ponts.
Le prix de l’ADA augmente à mesure que l’adoption de Cardinal augmente sur les principales plateformes DeFi de Cardano.
Cardinal assure un jalonnement et un prêt de BTC sécurisés et non dépositaires.

Cardano a fait un bond majeur dans le monde de la finance décentralisée avec le lancement de son premier protocole Bitcoin DeFi, Cardinal, déclenchant une forte hausse du prix et du volume de transactions de ADA.

Le protocole Bitcoin DeFi a été dévoilé pour la première fois par Charles Hoskinson, le fondateur de Cardano, lors de la conférence Bitcoin 2025, où une démonstration en direct a présenté une transaction BTC sans pont vers Cardano à l’aide du nouveau système. Le protocole est maintenant en ligne.

Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson has announced the launch of Cardinal, the first Bitcoin DeFi protocol on the Cardano network. The protocol leverages MuSig2 multi-signature technology to enable non-custodial cross-chain functionality, allowing users to directly use Bitcoin UTXOs…

— Wu Blockchain (@WuBlockchain) June 10, 2025

La nouvelle s’est rapidement répercutée sur le marché, faisant grimper le prix d’ADA de près de 4 % en 24 heures et poussant son volume de transactions à plus de 700 millions de dollars, selon DefiLlama et les données de suivi du marché.

L’inclusion récente d’ADA dans l’indice de crypto-monnaie Nasdaq, ce qui suscite l’intérêt institutionnel, alimente l’élan haussier d’ADA.

Cardinal intègre le bitcoin à l’écosystème DeFi de Cardano

Pour la première fois, les détenteurs de bitcoins peuvent désormais accéder à des services financiers décentralisés sur Cardano sans passer par des dépositaires centralisés ou des ponts tiers.

Développé par Input Output (IOHK), Cardinal encapsule les sorties de transactions non dépensées (UTXO) de Bitcoin dans des jetons rattachés que les utilisateurs peuvent miser, prêter ou emprunter tout en gardant un contrôle total sur leurs actifs.

Le protocole utilise le schéma multi-signature MuSig2 pour gérer les processus d’ancrage en toute sécurité, garantissant que le Bitcoin original reste verrouillé sur sa blockchain native.

En raison de cette conception minimisée par la confiance, Cardinal est considéré comme une innovation majeure par rapport aux solutions Bitcoin enveloppées traditionnelles qui dépendent fortement de l’infrastructure de garde.

UTXO encapsulés et compatibilité inter-chaînes

Ce qui distingue Cardinal, c’est sa capacité à gérer les UTXO enveloppés d’une manière qui reste transparente et sécurisée tout en offrant une flexibilité dans la façon dont les utilisateurs récupèrent leurs bitcoins ou ordinaux natifs.

Ces jetons enveloppés sont non seulement rattachés 1:1 avec des BTC, mais ils peuvent également être brûlés à tout moment par les utilisateurs pour récupérer leurs actifs d’origine grâce à un processus vérifiable.

Cardinal utilise également BitVMX, un système d’exécution hors chaîne, pour contourner les limites de script de Bitcoin et permettre des interactions avec les contrats intelligents de Cardano.

De plus, cette approche facilite la compatibilité avec d’autres blockchains telles qu’Ethereum, Solana et Avalanche, élargissant ainsi la portée de Bitcoin dans les environnements DeFi multi-chaînes.

Les plateformes DeFi de Cardano adoptent déjà Cardinal

Les principales plateformes DeFi basées sur Cardano, notamment MinswapDEX, SundaeSwap et Fluid Tokens, ont déjà intégré Cardinal, donnant aux utilisateurs la possibilité de cultiver, prêter et échanger directement des actifs liés au Bitcoin.

Grâce à cette intégration, le bitcoin peut désormais être utilisé comme garantie, échangé contre d’autres jetons natifs, ou même utilisé sur les marchés NFT et Ordinal sans compromettre la sécurité ou l’histoire.

Le directeur technique, Romain Pellerin, a souligné que si Cardinal est déjà en pleine transformation, les futures mises à niveau se concentreront sur l’intégration des portefeuilles, les preuves à divulgation nulle de connaissance et l’augmentation de la liquidité.

Ces améliorations devraient renforcer l’attrait du protocole et renforcer la position de Cardano dans le paysage DeFi plus large.

This year has seen the emergence of a new Internet person empowered by AI coding tools to build software for the Internet’s long tail: the vibe coder. The vibe coder heralds an era of software development that is democratized, effortless and instant, and an Internet economy propelled by builders rather than influencers.

Vibe coders need a viral and organic way to market their products. Crypto could provide it. A new generation of token launchers, such as Believe and L( )ng, is trying to unlock the vibe launch using tokenized idea markets that allow users to launch and trade product ideas. If those tokenized ideas attract enough support, these platforms assign a portion of the trading fees to builders who are willing to execute on them.

Ideas markets are a clever way to harness democratized token creation and speculative trading towards dispersed innovation. For the vibe coder, they are a way to spark virality, attract community and gain access to Internet capital markets. Provided these new platforms can find ways to control abuses, cultivate committed communities and gain mainstream traction, they could help define the Internet’s next chapter and its new main character.

Meet the Vibe Coder

New technologies create new persons. Or, as Marshall McLuhan put it, “first we build the tools, then they build us.” Meet the vibe coder: the product of the vibe-coding revolution. Andrej Karpathy, a co-founder of OpenAI, coined the term “vibe coding” about four months ago. Since then, the term has set off a stampede towards this Internet persona.

Vibe coders are non-technical creators who build software products using AI coding tools (e.g. Cursor and Windsurf) that are flow-based and chatbot-oriented, and that enable fast and intuitive product development. Like past successful Internet personae, anyone can become a vibe-coder builder. With AI doing the coding, what matters is creativity, flow and intent, not technical knowledge.

Among the defining traits of vibe coders is that they put their products into production practically as they conceived of them. They also iterate quickly, collaborate often and welcome strange and unexpected turns during product development, which they guide more than they control. Their creations extend to niche and esoteric fields but remain responsive to the current moment.

Vibe coders must rely on the viral and memetic properties of the web to bring their creations to market. They have many ancestors but the most immediate is the cracked Gen Z indie hacker.

Vibe coders are still in their emergent phase so we are just getting to know them, but they may soon bestride the web with the ubiquity of influencers in the age of corporate social networks or bloggers at the dawn of websites, and they may become a default persona for young people unable to find entry-level white-collar jobs.

Vibe It and Launch It

Vibe coders want an early market signal about which ideas and products are timely, so they can immediately seize upon them. They avoid venture capital for funding and aim to bootstrap development while attracting early users.

A new generation of token launchpads is trying to deliver on those wants using ideas markets. An illustrative early mover is Believe, which has been compared to a Kickstarter for ideas and projects for the long tail of the Internet. Believe’s flow is simple. A founder or scout can submit a project through the app or tag an idea post on social media with @launchacoin, which automatically creates an idea token tied to that idea. That token then immediately begins trading in an ideas market that determines the idea’s fair value based on the scale and importance of the problem being solved, and the builder’s ability to execute.

The ideas market allows builders to gauge the timeliness of the product idea and to assess market demand while creating conditions for viral distribution. If enough trading fees are generated in the ideas market, the builders can claim part of them to start or continue building the product itself. This means that product ideas with early viral traction can begin producing real revenue before the product has matured or a full ecosystem has formed. It also means that vibe coders can bootstrap early users economically motivated to support rapid iteration.

Over time, builders can begin integrating the idea token within the real product and its economics, imbuing it with more economic fundamentals and aligning token-holders with its long-term success. Believe offers a suite of APIs that support that integration, including a burning mechanism that burns tokens based on the product’s ability to convert users.

Believe has competitors, such as L( )ng and an evolving Pump.fun, which recently turned on creator fee sharing. What they have in common is that they are relying on ideas markets for incidentally launching real products. Those products so far include Dupe (finds cheap dupes of high-end furniture and décor), CreatorBuddy (optimizes your presence on X), AVO (a marketplace for trading agents), Kaiko (an app studio) and Fitcoin (an AI virtual closet). AllianceDAO, a crypto accelerator, recently accepted its first startup that launched on Believe.

Vibe Kill

Crypto is no stranger to co-opting hot narratives before failing to deliver on them, and this latest experiment has its fair share of detractors.

A prominent criticism is that these vibe launch platforms are wrappers for memecoins. While it is true that idea tokens possess the basic characteristics of memecoins, they trade in markets aimed at processing information constructively and subsidizing product development as a byproduct. At least in theory, this is similar to the way that prediction markets reveal truth or policy markets promote better policymaking—what Vitalik Buterin calls info finance. That said, in order to prevent an extractive industry growing up around ideas markets, platforms must curb automated sniping and dumping while cultivating devoted communities, or even product cults, by design. In this regard, Believe repels sniping with taxes on early purchases and uses APIs to align token-holders with the product long-term. L( )ng goes considerably further by orchestrating Dutch auctions for idea tokens and embedding vesting schedules.

Another criticism is that the business model is non-compliant because it orchestrates ICOs. Yet, ideas markets might actually be a compliant path to fund products (not legal advice!) because product funding is generally the byproduct, or the exhaust, of the meme/idea market, not of any fundraising sales to the public. The absence of a legal relationship between builders and holders of the tokens, which can be initiated by third parties (i.e. scouts), makes it even more challenging to locate a traditional securities issuer or an investment contract. And a friendlier SEC has begun permitting certain creators to monetize their creations using tokens, at least when it involves NFTs. At minimum, the “vibe raise” will be a case of first impression for courts and regulators.

Finally, detractors contend that ideas markets like Believe’s will not attract mainstream builders and consumers who fear the wild west of crypto. Yet, Believe is steered by a Web2 founder and has attracted mostly Web2 builders. Growth hacker Nikita Bier is an investor and vocal booster. Mainstream success rests on curation, safeguards and sustainable economics. Here, Believe’s record is mixed. While it has taken great pains to prevent spam and rugs spam and rugs, its monetization take rate of 50% is more extractive than the AppStore’s (only 30%), and it is not above featuring flash-in-the-pan gambling games. The more recently launched L( )ng is searching for mainstream traction by integrating verified communities for curation and aggressively courting long-term builders outside of Web3

A Builder Economy

Vibe-coding is rapidly ushering in an Internet builder economy populated by an influx of builders and their nearly instant creations. At the same time, democratized token issuance and ideas markets are creating a blueprint for the tokenized vibe launch. Together, they can power the proliferation of a range of niche and eccentric products to serve the web’s long tail and likely make it even longer. That is a good thing for the web and for the crypto ecosystem.

The launch of Bitcoin in 2009 created a resilient and decentralized monetary asset. Early adherents rallied around it as a singular innovation — immutable, fixed-supply, and leaderless. Over time, this coalesced into a belief system: Bitcoin maximalism. The argument was simple. Bitcoin came first. It had the most Proof-of-Work security. The most conservative monetary policy. All other assets were distractions or regressions.

But that framing increasingly diverges from how Bitcoin is now being applied in practice.

Interoperability Becomes the New Norm

Today, the crypto ecosystem is no longer a collection of isolated silos or, at least, it needn’t be. Interoperability is the backbone of Web3. The same technologies that maximalists once dismissed, like wrapped bitcoin and cross-chain bridges, are now exposing the limitations of that worldview. While these technologies are far from perfect, they prove that users want more than ideological purity; they want utility and functionality. This evolution is particularly significant for Bitcoin, which has historically been limited by its transaction speeds and a lack of smart contract functionality.

The watershed moment came with the emergence and explosive growth of DeFi, offering yield farming, lending, and trading opportunities that Bitcoin — at least in its native form — couldn’t directly participate in (most early DeFi activity was concentrated on Ethereum).

To bridge this gap, solutions like wrapped Bitcoin (WBTC) were conceived and launched, tokenizing BTC for use on Ethereum and other chains. While this was a step forward, wrapped tokens came with associated risks, such as centralized custodians, potential security vulnerabilities and an overall departure from Bitcoin’s trustless ethos.

New systems, including trust-minimized tunneling and Bitcoin-anchored consensus proofs, are enabling BTC to be integrated into smart contract environments without compromising its core properties. These architectures avoid the need for wrapping. Instead, they treat Bitcoin as a foundational, external settlement layer that can interact directly with the rest of the blockchain ecosystem — through tunneling and specialized Bitcoin-aware virtual machines.

The result is simple: Bitcoin is no longer isolated. And it no longer needs to be.

Maximalism vs. Infrastructure

Bitcoin maximalism asserts that BTC alone is sufficient. But the infrastructure now being deployed across the ecosystem proves otherwise. BTC is being used in DeFi. BTC is supporting NFT standards. BTC is moving across chains. And it is doing so without compromising its consensus layer or monetary properties.

The future of crypto belongs to collaboration, not isolation. Blockchain infrastructure will be shaped by interoperability and modular design. Bitcoin need not compete for dominance in such an ecosystem; rather, it can complement and secure a broader multi-chain ecosystem. As developers build bridges between chains rather than walls, they prove that Bitcoin can coexist with other networks, enhancing its utility instead of competing for dominance. In this environment, the maximalist mentality of “one coin to rule them all” already feels out of touch.

Regular crypto users want flexibility and different options to stake, lend, or trade their assets across multiple platforms, which interoperability enables — unlike Bitcoin maximalism that restricts all out-of-the-box use cases. As multi-chain ecosystems mature, users are increasingly drawn to infrastructure that supports cross-chain utility, including secure integrations of BTC.

Finally, Bitcoin maximalism has always been rooted mostly in ideology — but the crypto industry is driven by innovation, and new technologies are proving that BTC can evolve without losing its importance or advantages. This way, maximalists risk being left behind if they dismiss these advancements as mere “distractions.”

The Core of A Multi-Chain Stack

Bitcoin continues to serve as the most secure and censorship-resistant settlement network in the world. That is not changing. What is changing is the environment around it. Decentralized systems are growing more interoperable. The expectation that networks will remain isolated is no longer viable.

BTC is becoming a core layer in a multi-chain stack, and more integrated into systems it once stood apart from.

Where once Bitcoin maximalism offered clarity during crypto’s early phases of growth, the ecosystem has evolved. Today, Bitcoin can serve as a cornerstone in a broader system emphasizing security, interconnectivity, and composability.

As this trend continues to gain momentum, Bitcoin maximalism may fade because the idea that one coin must dominate all others ignores the power of collaboration and innovation. Interoperability isn’t a threat to Bitcoin — it’s a catalyst for growth. The future of crypto isn’t about choosing a single winner but rather about building a decentralized world where every chain, including Bitcoin, plays a vital role.

The decentralized future will rely on systems that are secure, interoperable, and modular. Bitcoin’s role as a resilient base layer ensures that it will persist as an integral component of that future, not as the only chain, but a fundamental cornerstone among others.

Crypto wallet infrastructure company Turnkey has raised $30 million in Series B funding led by Bain Capital Crypto, Fortune reported on Monday.

Turnkey, which was co-founded by former Coinbase employees Bryce Ferguson and Jack Kearney, aims to help developers build user-friendly wallets using application programming interfaces (APIs).

This can help wallets become more streamlined and easy to use, Ferguson said.

“We’re moving from this world of these slow, clunky systems that were designed for buying and holding crypto to very high throughput, machine-based transactions,” he said, according to Fortune’s report.

The company counts prediction market platform Polymarket, non-fungible token (NFT) marketplace Magic Eden and Stripe-owned stablecoin firm Bridge among its clients.

The funding also included contributions from Lightsped Faction and Galaxy Ventures, who led Turnkey’s $15 million Series A in April 2024.

Turnkey will use its new capital to grows its headcount, which currently sits at 35 employees. Principally, Turnkey is looking to expand its engineering team, according to the report.

The company did not immediately respond to CoinDesk’s request for further comment.

Bitcoin BTC rose over the weekend, offering a reprieve after a week of market jitters. It is now trading around $106,600 after gaining 1.2% in the past 24 hours, while the broader CoinDesk 20 (CD20) index added nearly 1.7%.

The recovery appeared driven less by headlines and more their absence, marking a shift from the public feud between U.S. President Donald Trump and Tesla CEO Elon Musk that rattled investors. As tensions cooled, markets recovered.

Even developments that might be seen as negative did not appear to sway markets. These include Taiwan-based crypto exchange BitoPro confirming being hacked, and data from Blockchain.com showing a slowdown in BTC’s network activity to the lowest level in a year.

Meanwhile, the Hang Seng index jumped 1.6% as traders reacted to U.S. President Donald Trump expressing optimism for talks with China in London that start today, saying the meeting “should go very well.”

Still, concerns are mounting over deflation in China. Consumer prices fell 0.1% year-over-year in May and factory gate prices dropped 3.3%, the steepest decline since October 2022.

The People’s Bank of China has already responded by trimming interest rates, reducing reserve requirements, and injecting liquidity into the market. That may eventually benefit cryptocurrencies, which often trade in tandem with liquidity conditions in traditional markets.

All that may recede in importance on Wednesday, when the U.S. announces the latest inflation figures. May’s consumer price index report is expected to show a rise in core inflation to 2.9%, up from 2.8% in April.

A stronger-than-expected reading could delay the Federal Reserve’s next rate cut and inject volatility across financial markets.

In a note published Monday, Spanish bank Bankinter warned that rising inflation and U.S. bond yields could pressure equity valuations and weaken the « fear of missing out » momentum that’s been propping up global stocks and other risk assets.

The yield on the 10-year Treasury has already climbed to 4.5%, a level that could begin to weigh on market sentiment if inflation surprises to the upside. Crypto markets, for now, are caught in the crossfire. Stay alert!

Skate, a blockchain infrastructure layer focused on unifying liquidity across decentralized networks, is introducing its SKATE token today.The Token Generation Event (TGE) marks the public debut of the token, with listings on Binance Alpha, Bybit and MEXC.Formerly known as Range Protocol, Skate is building a framework that allows decentralized applications (dapps) to run across multiple virtual machines like Ethereum, Solana and TON without needing separate deployments.The token lies at the heart of the system, supporting governance, staking and liquidity provision through the network’s automated market maker (AMM).Out of a fixed 1 billion token supply, 10% is being distributed via airdrops to early users, ecosystem contributors and NFT campaign participants. Claiming and staking the tokens immediately may boost rewards by 30%.MEXC’s pre-market trading started on June 4, with prices initially jumping 33% to $0.20 before dropping back down to $0.12 at the time of writing.

Derivatives Positioning

BTC options open interest on Deribit is $32.9B, with calls significantly outweighing puts at 200,000 contracts versus 110,000. The put/call volume ratio stands at 0.54, indicating continued demand for upside exposure. The $140K strike leads all others with 16,100 calls open, representing $1.79B in notional value.The 27 June expiry is the main focal point, accounting for $13.1B in notional open interest or 41% of the total. Daily notional flow is highest at this expiry with $206M traded, followed by $194M at the 13 June expiry.Monday flow data from Deribit shows 31% of contracts were calls bought and 17% were puts bought. The rest of the activity came from call and put selling, suggesting traders are combining bullish positioning with yield strategies at higher strikes.Coinglass liquidation heatmaps show high concentrations of long leverage near $104K and $107K. A total of $39M in liquidation leverage is stacked around $104.7K, making it a key downside level to watch for potential forced selling.Funding rates from Velo are steady, with BTC annualized funding holding near 6.2%. This reflects a moderately bullish stance, with no signs of excessive leverage in perpetual markets.

Technical Analysis

Bitcoin has reclaimed the 20-day exponential moving average (EMA) on the daily timeframe after retesting the 50-day EMA for the first time since its breakout from $85,000. Price action has broken out of the downward trendline, signaling a potential shift in momentum. However, it remains within a key daily order block, which may act as resistance.For a bullish continuation, it’s crucial for the BTC price to hold above these reclaimed EMAs and secure a weekly close above $109,400, which would invalidate the current weekly swing failure pattern and confirm the cryptocurrency’s strength.

Crypto Billionaire. Si l’on en croit les estimations du magazine Forbes, Donald Trump aurait réussi à doubler sa fortune depuis la fin de son premier mandat. Et cette performance serait en grande partie due à ses nombreuses aventures dans le secteur des cryptomonnaies. En effet, le président des États-Unis aurait engrangé environ 1 milliard de dollars sur ce seul marché. Une somme qui lui permettrait d’atteindre un patrimoine net estimé à 5,6 milliards de dollars.

Le président des États-Unis, Donald Trump, a multiplié les aventures crypto au cours des derniers mois. Une stratégie numérique qui lui aurait permis de gagner approximativement 1 milliard de dollars, selon les estimations du magazine Forbes.

Une manne financière qui lui a également permis de retrouver une liquidité dont il avait désespérément besoin. Car il y a un an, il manquait de liquidités avec environ 400 millions de dollars sur son bilan et plus de 500 millions de dollars de jugements légaux contre lui. Mais désormais, Trump détiendrait près de 900 millions de dollars d’actifs liquides, dont environ la moitié provient de ses aventures crypto.

Mais le président des États-Unis ne compte pas en rester là. Car il reste encore des centaines de millions, voire des milliards, à venir. C’est en tout cas ce que laisse penser le succès de son memecoin TRUMP, dont il vient de débloquer 8 % de son allocation. Autant dire que les 92 % restants pourraient bien faire exploser les compteurs.

Donald Trump et les cryptomonnaies

Le parcours de Donald Trump dans le secteur des cryptomonnaies a commencé avec le lancement de sa collection de NFT en décembre 2022. 4 autres collections ont suivi jusqu’en aout 2024. Une opération qui lui aurait rapporté 7 millions de dollars dont une partie en cryptomonnaies.

Ensuite, il a lancé le projet World Liberty Financial, une plateforme de finance décentralisée (DeFi) qui a vendu des jetons pour un total de 550 millions de dollars. Selon les calculs de Forbes, Trump aurait empoché environ 246 millions de dollars après impôts grâce à cette opération.

Enfin, juste avant de reprendre ses fonctions, Trump a annoncé le lancement de son propre memecoin, le $TRUMP. Ce jeton, qui n’est pas censé être un investissement, a tout de même généré 350 millions de dollars de frais de transaction et de stablecoins pour Trump et ses partenaires. Si Trump a pris 90 % de ces revenus, comme il l’a fait pour Truth Social, il aurait gagné 315 millions de dollars.

Encore des millions de dollars à venir

Et ce n’est pas fini. Car Trump et ses partenaires ont structuré la distribution des jetons TRUMP de manière à recevoir 800 millions de jetons à long terme. Pour l’instant, ils n’en ont reçu que 64 millions, soit 8 % de leur allocation totale. Au prix actuel de 11 dollars par jeton, cela représente environ 700 millions de dollars. Mais si on tient compte de la dilution potentielle, Forbes estime que ces jetons valent plutôt 475 millions de dollars. Et si Trump possède 90 % de cette allocation, cela fait environ 430 millions de dollars pour lui.

En résumé, Trump aurait déjà gagné environ 1,2 milliard de dollars grâce à ses aventures crypto, selon Forbes. Et il pourrait encore gagner des centaines de millions de dollars supplémentaires avec le déblocage progressif des jetons TRUMP.

Alors que Donald Trump continue de surfer sur la vague des cryptomonnaies, son nouveau secrétaire au Commerce, Howard Lutnick, annonce une réforme réglementaire pro-crypto. Une décision qui pourrait bien renforcer encore un peu plus la position de Trump dans cet écosystème en pleine expansion.

Avalanche’s native token AVAX surged more than 6% in the last 24 hours, outpacing the broader crypto market as measured by the CoinDesk 20 (CD20) index, which rose 0.8% in the same period.

AVAX’s price may have rebounded from political jitters and moved on the back of major developments in real-world asset (RWA) tokenization and institutional adoption.

The token climbed from a low of $19.37 to $20.96, recovering from a wider market sell-off triggered by growing tensions between U.S. President Donald Trump and Tesla CEO Elon Musk earlier this week, which saw the former threaten to terminate government contracts for the latter, who in turn accused the president of being implicated in the Jeffrey Epstein files.

The token rebounded after showing multiple signs of bullish momentum, according to CoinDesk’s Research’s technical analysis data model, which shows AVAX established a strong footing around $19.40 that was confirmed by volume exceeding the 24-hour simple moving average.

Volume further rose around the time of AVAX’s breakout last the $20 mark, showing strength in the move. The token has now formed short-term resistance near $21 and support at $20.81, the model shows.

But the stronger-than-average rebound may not just be technical. Last month, FIFA announced it chose Avalanche to power its FIFA blockchain network, with plans to migrate its existing non-fungible token (NFT) collection from Algorand and Polygon into the new network and to build out new fan experiences.

Institutional momentum added another leg. Asset manager VanEck is expected to roll out a $100 million PurposeBuilt Fund this month after first announcing it on May 21, focused exclusively on projects within the Avalanche ecosystem.

The fund will back tokens and businesses in gaming, finance, and AI, while deploying idle capital into on-chain real-world asset products like tokenized money markets.

The price still faces technical resistance near $24.80, but the combination of institutional activity, on-chain RWA growth, and network usage from high-profile partners like FIFA could help AVAX stay ahead of broader market volatility through June.
