When we started building Blockster V2, we weren’t just imagining a media platform. We were imagining a place where crypto feels like a culture, something you live in, belong to, and identify with. And at some point it became unmistakably clear: culture needs artifacts. Identity needs expression. And for all the innovation happening in Web3, the industry has never really had a fashion identity that felt authentic to the people inside it.
BTCC is ending the year with a playful twist. The decade-old exchange announced that SachiCoin (SACHI) — a Solana-based memecoin starring an irresistibly smug Scottish Fold cat — will go live for spot trading on December 3, 2025. And because no cat-themed token launches quietly, BTCC is rolling out an X meme contest to mark the moment.
Prediction markets just took a massive leap into mainstream accessibility. Myriad, the fast-growing Web3 prediction market protocol, is now the first platform ever to integrate natively inside Trust Wallet, giving more than 220 million users the ability to trade real-world outcome markets without ever leaving their wallet.
The Cardano ecosystem is entering a new era of scale. In a rare show of unified action, the Cardano Foundation, EMURGO, Input Output (IO), Intersect, and the Midnight Foundation have jointly introduced a sweeping 70 million $ADA proposal aimed at fixing the core infrastructure gaps that have slowed Cardano’s growth.
Falcon Finance is taking another major step toward building a truly global collateral ecosystem. The protocol has added tokenized Mexican government bills (CETES)—issued on-chain by Etherfuse—to the USDf collateral base, marking Falcon’s first integration of a non-USD sovereign yield asset.
