70% of Zcash Is Exposed to Quantum Risk, and a Deadline Just Landed

70 percent of all Zcash sits in addresses a quantum computer could one day target, and developers just set a deadline to fix it.

Zakura engineer Roman Akhtariev says post-quantum signature opcodes are planned for January 2027, a development target rather than a confirmed activation date. About 11.96 million of the 16.98 million coins issued are held in transparent addresses, and the proposed hash-based signatures use different math from elliptic curves, built to resist quantum attacks. Shielded coins are not covered in this first phase.

Markets are already nervous. $ZEC trades near 1,240 dollars, down about 12 percent over seven days after rallying toward 1,600 to 1,700 dollars, following a warning from Ethereum researcher Justin Drake about quantum and AI threats to wallet cryptography. No practical attack on wallet keys has been shown.

Quantum risk is becoming a real narrative across the sector. $BTC, $ETH, $STRK and $XMR holders are watching who ships protection first.

Crypto's Worst Day Turns One Year Old Today

19 billion dollars in leveraged bets vanished in 24 hours exactly one year ago today.
October 10, 2025 remains the largest liquidation event in crypto history. $BTC fell more than 14 percent to about 106,560 dollars, $ETH dropped to 3,551 dollars, $SOL hit 174 dollars, and altcoins lost about 47 percent on average. Perpetual futures open interest collapsed 43 percent, with a 57 percent wipeout on $HYPE-linked Hyperliquid, and $USDE briefly traded near 65 cents on Binance.

So is another one coming? The data says the setup is different. Funding rates topped 8 percent annualized on 18 of 32 days before the crash, but only once in 28 days this year. Bitcoin open interest sits at 3.20 percent of market cap versus 3.70 percent then, and leverage is at its lowest since August 2024.

The risk has not vanished. Oil above 100 dollars, a 10-year yield near 5.28 percent and rising altcoin leverage keep traders alert. One year later, the market looks calmer, but not bulletproof.

Apple, Nvidia and Tesla Shares Just Went Live on Solana

Apple, Nvidia and Tesla shares are now live on Solana, and each token is backed by one real share.

Securitize just launched twelve tokenized US stocks on $SOL today, including Apple, Microsoft, Alphabet, Meta, Amazon, Netflix, Palantir and Strategy, alongside $NVDA, $TSLA and $CRCL. Every token is linked to a real share that is not lent out, with trading and settlement in $USDC and Jump Trading acting as market maker.
The catch: holders get a security entitlement, a claim through an intermediary rather than a direct entry on the shareholder register, and trading runs on extended hours, not yet around the clock. Full 24/7 trading is a stated goal, not a live feature.

It lands weeks after the SEC opened a five-year Innovation Exemption for tokenized stocks, and it confirms the pattern: real equities, on-chain rails, and Solana racing to host them.

Robinhood Just Took Over Tokenized Stock Trading

Robinhood went from 9.7 percent to 42 percent of tokenized stock trading in a single month.

Tokenized equities just hit a record 4.87 billion dollars in market value, up 13.7 percent from August, while monthly trading volume reached a record 15.6 billion dollars. $HOOD alone handled 6.57 billion dollars of that volume, and together with Binance’s bStocks it controls 76.7 percent of all activity. xStocks did 2.11 billion dollars and Coinbase 804 million dollars. On assets, Securitize leads with 1.62 billion dollars and $ONDO follows with 1 billion dollars.

The real gap: tokenized stocks are only 8 percent of the tokenized real-world asset market but 93 percent of its on-chain trading.

More is coming. OKX and the NYSE’s parent filed to trade 63 tokenized US stocks around the clock on a permissioned venue, settling against $USDC and other stablecoins. $BNB and $OKB sit right inside this race.

Ondo is how Wall Street comes onchain.

Not financial advice. Do your own research.

Tokenization is becoming a national priority.

Last year, the White House featured Ondo’s explanation of tokenization in a report outlining its vision for the future of digital finance.

Since then, tokenization has accelerated:

→ Tokenized real-world assets grew over 140% year over year, reaching $34.5B.

→ U.S. regulators opened new pathways for tokenized stocks to trade onchain.

→ BlackRock, DTCC, and other major institutions expanded their tokenization efforts.

The past year has given the industry a stronger foundation for growth. Ondo will keep building alongside the institutions, developers, and policymakers shaping what comes next.

Weak Jobs Report, Strong Market

A weak jobs report just became Wall Street's best friend.

September payrolls are expected to show only 100,000 new jobs, a sharp drop from 162,000 in August. Weak enough to cool the economy, not weak enough to spark panic, exactly the kind of print traders love.

Futures are ripping. Dow futures are up 0.58 percent, S&P 500 futures up 0.49 percent, and Nasdaq futures up 0.71 percent, as traders pare back bets for an October rate hike. Nike is the outlier, sinking as much as 6 percent after hours on disappointing earnings and fresh job cuts.

Weaker labor data, stronger risk appetite, that's the trade today. $NKE is the one name bleeding while $BTC and $ETH ride the same risk-on wave lifting $QQQ and $SPY.ETF

RWA Issuers Add $330M+ in 24 Hours

RWA issuers just added over 330 million dollars in a single day, and Tether is the one leading the charge.

In the past 24 hours, Tether's real-world asset backing grew by 120.7 million dollars, more than double its nearest competitor. Ondo added 57.9 million dollars, Sky Ecosystem added 51.6 million dollars, Paxos added 24.4 million dollars, and a Binance-linked issuer added 18.5 million dollars. Smaller names like USDai, 3Jane, xStocks, Hastra and Figure rounded out the rest, each still adding millions in fresh on-chain asset value.

Combined, the top 10 issuers alone grew RWA market cap by more than 330 million dollars in just 24 hours.

This isn't speculative trading volume, it's actual asset issuance, real credit, real treasuries and real dollars moving on-chain every single day.

$USDT, $ONDO, $SKY, $PAXG and $BNB all sit at the center of this quiet but massive daily grind.

$ONDO

Tokenized Stocks Hit ATH

Tokenized stocks just printed a fresh all-time high, and the chart is a straight line up.

Market cap has rocketed to 3.7 billion dollars, up 763.5 percent over the past year. Ondo Finance leads with 983 million dollars, followed by xStocks at 864.2 million dollars and a Binance-backed issuer at 759.3 million dollars. Securitize holds 424.3 million dollars, with Robinhood, Reality, Republic, Superstate and Backpack all stacking in behind them.

This is no longer a side experiment, it's an entire on-chain stock market forming in plain sight. $ONDO, $HOOD, $BNB, $BTC and $ETH all sit inside this exact growth curve. Wall Street is quietly migrating on-chain, one issuer at a time.

One platform wants to put 10,000 stocks on-chain. Not 10. Ten thousand.

Backpack is building toward 10,000 tokenized equities on Solana, starting with its SpaceX token already outpacing rivals. If it lands, it turns Solana into the biggest stock exchange nobody officially calls an exchange. $BP, $SOL, $BTC, $ETH and $ONDO are all positioned for it.

Your wallet is about to let you buy stocks without ever touching a broker.

MetaMask just added tokenized U.S. stocks, ETFs and commodities straight into the wallet, powered by Ondo Global Markets. No new app, no new account, just one click from crypto to equities. $ONDO, $ETH, $BTC, $CFG and $PAXG all benefit as this rail goes mainstream.

Regulators just gave tokenization its biggest green light yet.

Federal banking regulators now say tokenized securities with the same legal rights as their traditional form get the same capital treatment. That single line changes how banks can hold this asset class. $ONDO, $CFG, $BTC, $ETH and $PAXG are the tokens built exactly for this moment.

A tokenized SpaceX stock just beat its biggest rival, and it isn't even close.

Backpack's SPCX token on Solana crossed 10,000 holders, nearly double xStocks' version, using real share redemption instead of cash settlement.

It launched just six days after SpaceX hit Nasdaq. $BP, $SOL, $BTC, $ETH and $ONDO are the names riding this exact wave right now.

Tokenization just went from niche to 26.4 billion dollars, and almost nobody noticed.

That's nearly four times last year's 6.6 billion dollars. Six categories, private credit, commodities, Treasurys, corporate bonds, foreign debt and alt funds, have each crossed 1 billion dollars alone. $ONDO, $CFG, $PAXG, $BTC and $ETH all sit at the center of this shift. Real-world assets aren't the future anymore. They're already here.

Wall Street is quietly moving onto the blockchain, and the numbers just confirmed it.

Tokenized real-world assets have exploded to 26.4 billion dollars in on-chain value, nearly four times last year's roughly 6.6 billion dollars. Six categories, private credit, commodities, U.S. Treasurys, corporate bonds, non-U.S. government debt and institutional alternative funds, have each individually crossed the 1 billion dollar mark. Federal banking regulators now say tokenized securities carrying the same legal rights as their traditional form deserve the same capital treatment, about as close to an institutional green light as this sector has gotten.

The stock side is heating up too. Backpack's tokenized SpaceX token on Solana just crossed 10,000 onchain holders, nearly double its closest rival's count, built on a redemption-for-shares structure instead of cash settlement, and launched just six days after SpaceX's own Nasdaq debut.

$ONDO and $CFG remain the names most exposed to this trend, while $PAXG shows the same thesis playing out in commodities. $BTC and $ETH still anchor the infrastructure underneath all of it. RWAs were the slow story of 2025. In 2026, they're becoming the main one.

Do you believe the future of finance is tokenized ?

GOLD HOLDERS CAN NOW EARN GOLD ON THEIR GOLD — VIA A BRAND NEW TOKEN LAUNCHED THIS WEEK

Paxos Labs launched PAXGy on September 24 — a new token built on $PAXG that deploys reserves into the institutional gold-leasing market to generate yield measured in troy ounces rather than dollars. Holders deposit PAXG or eligible stablecoins like $USDC and receive PAXGy, which accrues value against an exchange rate denominated purely in gold terms.

The mechanism: institutions have quietly earned yield lending physical gold reserves for decades, a market previously closed to ordinary holders. PAXGy pools retail participation into that same leasing market, so a holder's token balance stays constant while the PAXG each token redeems for grows over time.

Launch partners: OKX, Uniswap, Ether.Fi, and $LINK's Chainlink all support PAXGy, with Chainlink powering cross-chain infrastructure and price feeds. PAXG itself is backed by 1.8 billion dollars in LBMA-certified gold, attested by KPMG.

The risk Paxos flags directly: this isn't free yield. Deploying gold into external lending introduces credit and market risk — if borrowers default, the exchange rate can move downward, unlike $ETH-based tokens that simply track an asset directly. This launches the same week $BTC traded through a volatile session.
