Pendle is the largest protocol in DefiLlama’s yield category, comprising over 50% of the TVL in this sector. Last year, we settled over $21 billion of PTs, generating over $1.5 billion in yield.
Such growth was largely fuelled by the adoption of Pendle PTs as collateral, which have reached an all-time-high with over $1.8 billion deployed across DeFi money markets.
Today, PTs are an economy of their own. They’ve become essential infrastructure for listed projects to accelerate adoption and bootstrap deep liquidity. As we move toward the next phase of growth - expanding PT as a product to new clients in TradFi and non-EVM chains (e.g. Solana)—this foundation is what enables us to scale.
This was always the vision, that is to evolve Pendle assets beyond just “invisible receipt tokens” into yield-bearing primitives that power DeFi’s backbone.
In TradFi, financial instruments are routinely leveraged for greater capital efficiency. Seeing Pendle assets move along that same trajectory, being accepted as trusted assets for backing loans across household names like @Aave, @MorphoLabs, and @eulerfinance, is something I’m deeply proud of. It's a strong validation of Pendle’s utility, credibility, and brand.
Growing PT as an economy also means curating the product and building the liquidity layer that allows institutions and power users to settle efficiently.
We're working hard towards our goal of owning the entire yield layer, be it TradFi, CeFi, DeFi…
Job’s not done. But it will be!
🐋 Bitcoin Whale Moves on Binance — Is a Major Price Swing Incoming?
The market trend is solid despite this short-term downturn. Bitcoin has maintained its rise and is barely below its record high from yesterday. On-chain indications have increased with recent price activity, indicating significant participants are returning to the market.
Market leaders like Binance, which have traditionally influenced price discovery and market direction, are being keenly monitored by experts.
The analyst noted that the Binance Whale Activity Score has increased in his QuickTake piece “Binance Whale Activity Spikes Eyes on the Market.”
This indicator shows that huge holders are actively repositioning by measuring Binance's top 10 whale wallet inflow and outflow. These changes may predict market volatility and direction.
The expert added that whale inflow spikes may indicate distribution or strategic selling, while outflow surges indicate money buildup or redeployment to other platforms.
Whale movements historically anticipate big price changes, making them important. He found that inflow-outflow oscillations may boost short-term liquidity and volatility.
Real-time demand is proxied by the difference between taker purchase and sell volumes. A green phase suggests market purchase orders are prevalent, indicating buyers are regaining power.
The analyst noticed that the same chart showed largely red values in prior months, signaling sell orders and downward price pressure. Bitcoin's sudden return to green may indicate fresh demand as it tests its highs.

In just a few days, Project X and Loud have become the frontrunners in the crypto space. Here's why you shouldn't miss out.
A bit of backstory: At first glance, both projects seemed to appear out of nowhere, dominating news feeds. However, they are backed by experienced individuals and solid marketing strategies.
So, what is @stayloudio? As @0x_ultra explains, it's primarily an experiment where users are forever rewarded based on their mindshare and engagement with Loud. These rewards are generated from trading fees, and yes, the project is powered by Kaito.
The situation with @prjx_hl is more mysterious. While not much is known about it yet, the "hl" in the name likely refers to Hypeliquid. The project gained traction with just two posts from @BOBBYBIGYIELD and @Lamboland_, and then its popularity has been fueled by the community. This is an example of founders with extensive experience successfully launching a project.
The best course of action now is to set up notifications and keep an eye on updates. Joining early will probably ensure you receive all the early bird benefits.
How a Crypto Whale GAMBLER Lost $60M in a Day
James Wynn, a big-name trader, just got wrecked on Bitcoin—here’s what happened:
The Setup
May 19: Went 40x long on $550M worth of BTC (~5,520 BTC at $103K)
May 20-21: Doubled down, pushing his position over $1B
At one point, he was up $39M as BTC neared $112K
Where It Went Wrong
May 23: BTC dropped 4% after Trump’s tariff news
May 24: Tried to recover by closing a Pepecoin trade (+$25M) and adding more BTC longs
May 25: Liquidated at $107,746, losing $13.4M
Same day: Flipped to shorting $856M worth of BTC
May 26: Got squeezed again, losing another $15.9M
The Lesson
Leverage kills – 40x is a ticking time bomb
Revenge trading fails – Going from long to short in panic just burns more cash
Even pros get wrecked – No one’s invincible in crypto
Moral of the story? Trade small, sleep well.

BTCfi is taking shape fast, and seeing xBTC go live on @Aptos with immediate support from major dApps is a huge statement.
This rollout shows real coordination across the Aptos ecosystem, Panora, Echo, Thala, Aries, Hyperion and the rest all showing up on Day 1 says it all. Momentum like this does not just happen, it’s earned by builders who stay consistent.
🚨 $WIF Traders, Pay Attention! 🧢🐶
After a solid run-up from the $0.40 range lows, #dogwifhat hit resistance at $1.18 — the same level that marked a lower high earlier this year. Since then, it’s been stuck in a short-term range ($0.93–$1.20), struggling to break out. ⚖️
But don’t confuse this slowdown with weakness. 🧠 The OBV has flattened, not dumped. And the Awesome Oscillator? Still green above zero — bullish momentum isn't gone, just cooling off. 🌡️
Here’s the thing: it's not just WIF. The entire alt market has stalled since May 10. All eyes are on $BTC 🟠 — it's leading the dance now. Once Bitcoin makes its move, WIF could follow fast. 💨
📉 Open Interest dropped from $350M → $256M. That means speculators are sitting out for now. Funding rate flipped negative briefly, but has recovered — a sign that sentiment might be shifting back. 🩺
📌 TL;DR: WIF is in chill mode, not dead. Wait for BTC to show strength, and we could see a sharp rally from WIF 🚀
$HUMA : #ImportantUpdate 📈📈
"As you all know, the Huma coin has been launched, and it's currently trading around the $0.062 area. I think in the coming time, although nothing is certain, it's possible that the Huma coin will first go to the $0.045 area and then directly to the $0.06 area, and from there, it will go to the $0.08 area. Now, we just have to see if this coin only goes up, but we have to see if this good buying area comes in our luck or not. My every prediction has been successful before, but let's see this time if the Huma coin comes to the $0.045 area or if it pumps directly tomorrow. So, whoever wants guidance can tell me in the comments."
