Prefers projects that bring “externalities” to the industry
Simply put, it’s bringing people and money from outside the circle into Crypto for the first time.
▌A great example: Robinhood Chain
The Robinhood platform has more than 20 million stock trading users. These people:
Used to buying and selling assets through an app
Interested in finance
Trusting the Robinhood brand
When Robinhood Chain opens, it opens the door to crypto for the first time for people from a completely different world. These people weren’t part of this industry before—their entry is net incremental.
▌Another highly worth watching example is @ADIChain_ @ADI_Foundation
If Robinhood Chain brings incremental users in niche financial markets, then ADI Chain brings an even larger external variable: institutional capital, compliance frameworks, and global-level users.
You can understand ADI Chain with a few keywords:
1. Sovereign-level compliant public chain
ADI Chain is a sovereign-level compliant public chain in Abu Dhabi, established by Sirius International Holding under IHC.
IHC is an investment group with a sovereign background in the UAE, with assets under management exceeding $240 billion.
In July 2026, ADI Chain announced it had secured a $50 million strategic investment.
So from the very beginning, ADI Chain isn’t an ordinary on-chain project—it’s infrastructure with strong sovereign-capital and compliance DNA.
2/ A prediction market in an official World Cup partnership
ADI Chain’s flagship application, ADI Predict Street, is a prediction market that is officially partnered with the 2026 FIFA World Cup, for billions of viewers worldwide.
The key point is that what it reaches isn’t only crypto-native users, but the mainstream audience behind a global top-tier sports event like the World Cup.
I’m sure you must have seen it during World Cup match broadcasts.
And recently, ADI Predictstreet also reached a deep partnership with Kalshi, one of the world’s largest prediction markets. The collaboration covers co-branding, product integration, and the infrastructure layer.
3. Institutional adoption is already happening
Another core highlight of ADI Chain is that it’s starting to capture more and more institutional partnerships and deployments:
The UAE’s first central-bank-authorized stablecoin issuance
Teamed up with global custodian banking giant BNY Mellon and Finstreet
Partnered with BlackRock to accelerate institutional-grade blockchain adoption
Teamed up with Mastercard to build a payments ecosystem
Partnered with Franklin Templeton to build digital asset infrastructure
Partnered with FIFA
Joined Open Standard and, alongside giants like Blackstone and Mastercard, supports Open USD
When you look at these pieces of information together, it’s actually already very clear.
ADI Chain is trying to become a public chain that truly serves compliant finance, institutional assets, and global application scenarios.
4/ Money never lies
Sometimes the market is more honest than any narrative.
$ADI’s issue price is $1.
Even after going through a difficult bear market phase, so far $ADI has still achieved nearly a 7x increase.
Why can it perform like this?
The core reason is that every transaction on ADI Chain must be paid with $ADI.
Whether it’s stablecoin settlement, trading tokenized assets, or related prediction-market activities, $ADI is needed as the gas payment medium. As the ADI Chain ecosystem expands and on-chain activity grows more active, the demand for using $ADI becomes stronger.
Lastly, the above is not investment advice.
