INK TO LAUNCH NATIVE TOKEN, TARGETS EARLY LIQUIDITY PARTICIPANTS WITH AIRDROP

 

Layer 2 network Ink has announced the launch of its native token, INK, with a capped total supply of 1 billion and no future minting via governance.

 

While Ink remains governed under the Optimism Superchain, the INK token will be used exclusively for incentivizing users and developers, starting with an airdrop to early participants of its Aave-based liquidity protocol.

 

Analysis:

 


This move strengthens Ink’s DeFi incentives while maintaining alignment with the Optimism ecosystem. The focus on utility rather than governance could attract more active liquidity and developer participation.

 

With a potentially small airdrop recipient base, community expectations for ROI are rising—but long-term success depends on how effectively Ink can sustain ecosystem growth and user retention.

 

 

ONDO FINANCE FORMS GLOBAL ALLIANCE TO STANDARDIZE RWA TOKENIZATION

 

Ondo Finance has launched the “Global Markets Alliance” to promote the tokenization of real-world assets (RWAs) like U.S. equities. Key members include Solana Foundation, Jupiter, Trust Wallet, BitGo, Fireblocks, Rainbow Wallet, and Alpaca.

 

The alliance aims to set best practices around interoperability, investor protection, liquidity, and composability.

 

Analysis:

 


The alliance brings together critical infrastructure players—from custody to liquidity routing—suggesting a strong industry push toward institutional-grade RWA adoption.

 

This could accelerate integration of RWAs into DeFi and traditional finance, although legal and jurisdictional hurdles still pose major challenges for global standardization.

 

 

NAMADA PREPARES MAINNET LAUNCH, NAM TRADING TO BEGIN THIS WEEK

 

Privacy-focused Cosmos-based chain Namada is entering its final mainnet stage. The network offers “privacy-as-a-service” for dApps and blockchains through shielded multi-asset pools.

 

NAM token distribution is underway, and exchanges like Gate have begun enabling deposits, with trading expected to start this week.

 

Analysis:

 


Namada’s launch positions it as a privacy layer in the Cosmos ecosystem at a time when on-chain privacy is gaining urgency.

 

Its multi-chain ambitions and service-oriented privacy design may appeal to DeFi projects seeking better data protection. Still, adoption will depend heavily on user trust and successful integrations across chains.
