Large $XRP withdrawals from Binance have climbed to their highest 30-day total in seven months, according to on-chain analytics platform CryptoQuant. The figure, tracked by CryptoQuant contributor Arab Chain, points to a notable shift in how major holders are managing their positions relative to the world's largest crypto exchange.
1.38 Billion XRP Exits Binance
Data from CryptoQuant shows the 30-day sum of $XRP outflows from Binance has risen to 1.38 billion XRP, the highest whale outflow reading in seven months. The rebound follows an earlier period of declining activity, with $XRP trading near $1.50 at the time of the analysis.
Arab Chain notes that the outflows suggest a shift in whale holding behaviour, as more large addresses choose to hold their coins away from Binance rather than keeping them readily available for selling. That pattern, if sustained, could gradually reduce the liquid supply available for trading on the exchange.
Separate CryptoQuant data shows whales accounted for around 77% of $XRP outflows from centralised exchanges overall, with Binance showing an even stronger concentration, where whale activity made up roughly 81% of outflows versus 18.7% for retail.
Context: Outflows Are Not the Same as Reserve Losses
The headline figure requires some qualification. The distinction between exchange outflows and net flows determines what the figure actually measures. The former counts amounts withdrawn; the latter subtracts those amounts from deposits over the same period. Consequently, the reported total cannot be equated with a 1.38 billion $XRP decline in Binance's reserves. Coins leaving Binance may have moved to other exchanges or private wallets rather than into long-term cold storage.
CryptoQuant separately reported that $XRP whale inflows to Binance totaled about 1.6 billion $XRP over the prior 30 days, with Binance reserves standing near 2.62 billion $XRP, the highest level in roughly 69 days. That means large holders have been both depositing and withdrawing at elevated rates, adding nuance to any straightforward accumulation narrative.
Wallets holding between 10 million and 100 million $XRP added 1.6 billion tokens over two weeks, reaching a record 13.93 billion $XRP. The accumulation coincided with large transfers dominating exchange outflows on September 30, when moves of at least 1 million $XRP made up 60.8% of Binance outflows and 48.7% of Coinbase outflows. Whether the latest outflow trend represents a continuation of that dynamic or a separate rotation remains to be seen.

Cardano (@Cardano) founder Charles Hoskinson (@IOHK_Charles) used TOKEN2049 Singapore on October 7 to put Midnight (@MidnightNtwrk) and its privacy-focused technology firmly in the spotlight, while taking a pointed shot at the Cardano Foundation over the project's absence from the ecosystem's main booth at the event.
Midnight Left Out of Cardano's Booth
Hoskinson was visibly critical after finding no mention of Midnight at the Cardano Foundation's showcase. He questioned why the project was excluded from the 108-square-meter stand, which featured more than 30 Cardano projects. Projects including Minswap, Iagon, SNEK and GravityDEX all had a presence at the display. "The largest project on Cardano doesn't seem to be listed anywhere in the ecosystem," Hoskinson said in a video shared on social media. He quipped that Midnight's absence was perhaps fitting, given its focus on privacy. Hoskinson also noted the booth was funded by the Cardano community and urged members to monitor how treasury funds are used.
Midnight had its own separate presence at TOKEN2049, and the episode added to ongoing disagreements between Hoskinson and the Cardano Foundation over ecosystem representation.
The Night Frame and Midnight's Technical Push
On the TOKEN2049 stage, Hoskinson promoted what he calls the Night Frame, a framework that pairs zero-knowledge proofs, multi-party computation and trusted execution environments on Midnight, the privacy-focused partner chain built by Input Output Global (IOG). The combination is designed to bring meaningful privacy and computational complexity to on-chain operations, going beyond what conventional smart contracts can offer.
Midnight also ran its own keynote at TOKEN2049, where the team showcased several products, including Night Mode, Midnight Passport, the Collateral Warehouse and Offer Files. Night Mode uses the same trio of zero-knowledge proofs, trusted execution environments and multi-party computation, and is designed to support programmable smart contracts with selective disclosure, written in Midnight's Compact programming language.
The event followed a significant technical milestone for the network. On October 2, 2026, permissionless smart contract deployment went live on the Midnight mainnet, allowing developers to freely deploy contracts or create them through code. Developers can now deploy contracts directly to Midnight mainnet without first going through a mandatory security review, and applications can also deploy contracts on behalf of users, removing another hurdle from the onboarding process.
Midnight's Solana wallet integration could also extend its privacy tools beyond the Cardano ecosystem, widening the potential addressable market for the $NIGHT token. The network runs on two tokens: NIGHT, which handles governance and utility and has a fixed supply of 24 billion, and DUST, a shielded token that serves as a renewable resource for paying transaction fees.

Una nueva capa, no una nueva moneda
La empresa fintech Metallicus ha presentado la versión alfa de DogecoinVM, una nueva capa de pagos que acelera las transacciones de Dogecoin ($DOGE) en la red principal por un factor de 300. Marshall Hayner, director ejecutivo de Metallicus y miembro de la junta directiva de la Fundación Dogecoin, destacó este avance como una respuesta tecnológica a un desafío que Elon Musk planteó a la comunidad de Dogecoin en 2021. En aquel momento, Musk argumentó que Dogecoin necesitaba un volumen de transacciones considerablemente mayor para convertirse en un sistema de pagos global práctico.

Ondo Finance is pushing further into Europe, giving eligible investors on the continent access to tokenized U.S. stocks and ETFs directly onchain. The expansion marks a notable step in the broader effort to bring traditional Wall Street assets onto public blockchain infrastructure.
Assetera Handles the Regulatory Layer
The distribution is being handled by Assetera, a regulated trading platform based in Austria that allows partners to offer tokenized financial products like stocks and ETFs without applying for their own MiFID license. Assetera holds both MiFID II and VASP licenses, with an ongoing upgrade to meet MiCA standards. By managing the entire issuance, distribution, and settlement process, the platform removes the regulatory burden for partners looking to offer tokenized securities in Europe.
Through Assetera's MiFID II-regulated platform, eligible European investors will get access to 450+ tokenized U.S. stocks and ETFs, with more than 100 already live. The full product range is projected to cover hundreds of U.S. stocks and ETFs by Q4 2026.
How the Tokens Work
Each token issued through the platform represents an underlying security. Every onchain token is fully collateralized by the underlying stock held in custody. That structure means investors hold an onchain instrument with a direct claim on the real-world asset, rather than a synthetic or derivative product, distributed across 30 EU and EEA markets.
The partnership builds on Ondo Finance's broader European push. Authorization from the Liechtenstein Financial Market Authority extends across the EEA through its passporting regime, enabling Ondo to serve investors in 30 European countries, with regulated onchain exposure to U.S. markets accessible to more than 500 million potential investors.
Ondo Finance's tokenized equities platform has also reached a significant milestone globally. In less than eight months, Ondo Global Markets became the first tokenized stock and ETF platform to reach $1 billion in TVL. The platform holds over 70% market share among tokenized equity issuers and has generated over $18 billion in cumulative trading volume, live across Solana, BNB Chain, and Ethereum.
The move reflects growing momentum in the real-world asset sector, where tokenization platforms are racing to bring regulated, onchain exposure to conventional financial markets to investors outside the United States.

Bank-Grade Custody for Institutions
Standard Chartered (@StanChart) has announced plans to offer custody services for selected cryptocurrencies, stablecoins, and tokenized real-world assets (RWAs) in Singapore. The service is aimed at institutional clients and accredited investor corporate clients, subject to applicable regulatory requirements.
In Singapore, the planned custody service will complement the bank's broader Financing and Securities Services capabilities, bringing together traditional asset servicing, tokenization, and digital asset custody. This will allow Standard Chartered to support clients across a wider range of asset lifecycles, from safeguarding traditional assets to providing custody for tokenized assets within an institutional-grade framework.
Expanding a Growing Digital Asset Footprint
The move marks another step in Standard Chartered's continued expansion of digital asset custody capabilities across key international financial centres, building on its existing presence in the UAE, Luxembourg, and Hong Kong.
Patrick Lee, CEO of Singapore and ASEAN and South Asia at Standard Chartered, said Singapore is a key hub for financial innovation with growing demand for trusted digital asset solutions. He added that robust infrastructure would be critical to supporting the secure movement, safekeeping, and servicing of tokenized assets at an institutional scale.
Under a broader restructuring, Zodia's customer-facing custody business for Standard Chartered's institutional clients is moving inside the bank's Corporate and Investment Banking division. The subsidiary will continue operating as a standalone software-as-a-service platform, providing white-label crypto custody services to third-party banks and fintechs.
The move reflects Standard Chartered's continued investment in digital asset capabilities, responding to growing demand from institutional and corporate clients for secure, regulated, and bank-grade digital asset custody.

Biden Demands Accountability After Disastrous Launch
Hunter Biden has publicly called on the unnamed market maker behind the $LAPTOP memecoin to buy back and burn the tokens, saying he takes the failed launch personally. The demand followed the release of a forensic report that laid out what went wrong when the token debuted on September 9.
Biden commissioned the review from Groom Lake, an independent blockchain forensics firm. The report pointed to limited LAPTOP inventory, heavy early trading, and changes in liquidity as the main factors behind the chaotic price action on launch day.
A wallet linked to one market maker received $500,000 ahead of launch but used only around $5,200 for initial liquidity. Fewer than 30,000 LAPTOP tokens remained in the main pool, representing just 0.003% of the initial one-billion-token supply, making the price highly susceptible to even small trades.
The price surged from $0.05 to $317 within two minutes, then dropped 98% within an hour. Market Maker 1 withdrew its funds 84 seconds after the peak, eliminating the liquidity available to absorb sell orders.
Market Maker Paid $500,000, Deployed Almost Nothing
Market Maker 1's DEX position generated a profit of around $686,000, while Market Maker 2's related DEX trades netted more than $2.1 million.
Within an hour of launch, more than 11,500 wallets were sitting at a loss, with approximately 80% of buyers having paid too much.
The Groom Lake review confirmed that all founder tokens remain unmoved in their original wallet, while Biden's personal allocation is locked for six months, followed by a two-year vesting schedule. Biden has pushed back firmly on suggestions that his team profited from the collapse, insisting the project was undermined by the market maker's conduct rather than any sell-off by insiders.
Biden said he takes ultimate responsibility and will not leave the project. He also plans to burn most of the unclaimed tokens from the first airdrop, which accounted for 10% of the total supply.

DNC Files Federal Lawsuit Over Campaign-Style Ads
The Democratic National Committee on Wednesday sued President Donald Trump's administration over television advertisements that promoted his political message while costing taxpayers millions of dollars. The complaint, filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, alleges the ads are illegal government-sponsored propaganda and accuses Trump of personally directing them.
The DNC cited a measure Trump signed into law this year barring congressional appropriations from being used for publicity or propaganda purposes. The lawsuit also cites the Anti-Deficiency Act and the Purpose Statute, which restricts taxpayer funds to only the specific purposes approved by Congress. The ads were paid for through funding earmarked for U.S. Customs and Border Protection.
The lawsuit says the ads began airing in September and ran nationally and locally, including during NFL and college football games. Ad tracking firm AdImpact estimates the campaign has already cost taxpayers more than $12 million. The watchdog group Common Cause also filed its own suit making similar legal arguments, alleging the administration violated appropriations statutes.
White House Defends Ads, Pledges PAC Funding Going Forward
The White House has defended the ads as public service announcements akin to what past administrations have done to promote various policies. Legal experts have said the recent ads differ from many past public service announcements because they are not aimed at helping members of the public benefit from specific government programs. Responding to criticism, Trump defended the ads as "positive promotion for our Great U.S.A." but said he would pay for them using his MAGA Inc. super PAC going forward. However, the costs already incurred using public funds remain at the center of the legal dispute.
The DNC argued the administration's use of taxpayer dollars for campaign-style advertisements deprived Democrats of a fair electoral process by adding public funds to resources available to support Republican candidates, placing Democratic candidates at an electoral disadvantage. Trump has faced bipartisan backlash for the ads, which glorify him and echo his campaign pitch as voters cast early ballots with the midterm elections less than a month away.
The defendants in the lawsuit include Trump, the White House, DHS, and the Office of Management and Budget.

APEPE Surges 21% in 24 Hours
Ape and Pepe (@apepeofficial) has jumped 21% over the past 24 hours, pushing its market cap toward approximately $325 million. The move adds to a string of volatile price swings for the token, which has drawn attention from retail traders looking for exposure to the broader memecoin sector.
CoinGecko ranks APEPE around No. 141 by market capitalization, with all 210 trillion tokens in circulation. Despite the latest rally, the token remains well below its all-time high of $0.056888, trading roughly 77% beneath that peak.
What Is Ape and Pepe?
Launched in June 2023 on the Polygon (@0xPolygon) blockchain, APEPE combines two of crypto's most recognisable meme identities: the "Ape" culture associated with retail trading enthusiasm and the Pepe frog meme lineage. The result is a community-driven token that positions itself as a rallying point for small investors.
The project runs on Polygon's layer-2 infrastructure, which offers low transaction fees and fast settlement times, making it accessible for small-scale retail participation. Its total supply is fixed at 210 trillion tokens, all of which are currently circulating.
Like most memecoins, APEPE carries no formal utility roadmap. Its price is driven primarily by community sentiment, social media momentum, and broader conditions across the memecoin sector. Traders should treat any sharp move in either direction as consistent with the token's historical behaviour rather than a signal of fundamental change.

El veterano trader Peter Brandt (@PeterLBrandt) ha señalado a Monero (@monero) como su claro favorito tras publicar una comparación semanal, lado a lado, de los gráficos de varias de las principales altcoins. El análisis dejó a $XRP rezagado frente a sus pares según criterios puramente basados en la acción del precio.
Monero se lleva el visto bueno
Brandt publicó recientemente una comparación semanal de los gráficos de XRP, Monero y Solana, evaluando cada activo exclusivamente según patrones clásicos de precios y movimientos medidos. Su veredicto sobre $XMR fue inequívoco. La criptomoneda centrada en la privacidad destacó porque Brandt consideró que ya había absorbido toda la oferta por encima del precio, en marcado contraste con la carga que soporta XRP, y describió a Monero como un activo con «el camino despejado por delante».

Una billetera de Bitcoin inactiva desde hace 15 años mueve 2,43 millones de dólares
Una billetera de Bitcoin cuya última actividad se registró en el verano de 2011 ha movido 28,46 $BTC, que ahora tienen un valor aproximado de 2,43 millones de dólares. Galaxy Research detectó la transferencia en la cadena e informó que las monedas, recibidas por primera vez el 12 de junio de 2011, se incluyeron en el bloque 970281 a las 03:33 UTC del 7 de octubre de 2026, tras permanecer completamente intactas durante aproximadamente 15,2 años.
Cuando esas monedas se recibieron originalmente, $BTC cotizaba a unos 15 dólares por moneda, lo que situaba el costo total de adquisición de la billetera en aproximadamente 427 dólares. A los precios actuales, la ganancia estimada asciende a cerca del 582.198%, según los datos de seguimiento de Galaxy Research. Esa cifra se basa en el costo base estimado y representa un cálculo de ganancias no realizadas a realizadas. El registro de la cadena de bloques, por sí solo, no confirma que se haya producido una venta ni verifica el precio exacto de compra original.

La principal agencia policial de Europa ha emitido una advertencia mesurada pero contundente a la industria de las criptomonedas: la computación cuántica no va a destruir la cadena de bloques de Bitcoin, pero podría vaciar las carteras de millones de titulares que han expuesto sus claves públicas.
El 7 de octubre de 2026, el Centro Europeo contra la Ciberdelincuencia (EC3) de Europol publicó dos informes sobre cómo la computación cuántica podría afectar a las criptomonedas y los datos cifrados. La principal conclusión de la agencia trazó una clara distinción entre la cadena de bloques subyacente y las carteras que la gente usa para guardar sus monedas.

Una integración, dos importantes redes de monedas estables
Polygon (@0xPolygon) ha ampliado su Open Money Stack para admitir la red TRON (@trondao), ofreciendo a las empresas fintech, los proveedores de remesas y las plataformas de pago una vía directa desde las cuentas bancarias tradicionales hasta el mayor ecosistema de USDT del mundo. El 7 de octubre, Polygon Labs añadió la compatibilidad con TRON a su Open Money Stack, conectando los más de 94.000 millones de dólares en USDT en circulación de la red con los canales bancarios regulados de Estados Unidos mediante una única integración.
Tradicionalmente, las empresas que prestan servicios a esa economía han tenido que reunir por separado licencias, bancos patrocinadores, proveedores de monederos e infraestructura de enrutamiento entre cadenas antes de transferir fondos entre los canales bancarios y las redes blockchain. Polygon Open Money Stack reúne esos componentes mediante una única integración.

Un panorama más amplio para los ETF
El mercado de ETF de criptomonedas está entrando en una nueva etapa, y Grayscale se está posicionando en el centro de ella. Durante su intervención en Token2049 Singapur, Krista Lynch, directora general de Grayscale, afirmó que los estándares genéricos de cotización de la Comisión de Bolsa y Valores de Estados Unidos han creado un marco que ahora abarca alrededor de 15 tokens, lo que da a los emisores mucha más libertad para decidir qué activos digitales pueden respaldar productos de inversión.
Lynch dijo que los emisores han empezado a ir más allá de Bitcoin y Ether, y que ahora seleccionan con más cuidado en función de la demanda de los inversores y de sus propias convicciones. El cambio regulatorio se deriva de la aprobación, en septiembre de 2025, por parte de la SEC de estándares genéricos de cotización para participaciones de fideicomisos basados en materias primas en Nasdaq, Cboe y NYSE. Según esos estándares, los fondos que cumplan los requisitos pueden cotizar sin presentar una solicitud de cambio normativo individual, lo que reduce los plazos de aprobación potenciales de hasta 240 días a unos 75.

Samsung Wallet and Samsung Pay will support USDC transfers on Solana for cross-border remittances, starting in the last week of October across 82 million U.S. Galaxy devices. The move marks a significant push to bring stablecoin payments into the mainstream consumer wallet experience, without requiring users to download a separate crypto app.
Built Into the Wallet You Already Use
The feature is built into Samsung Wallet rather than alongside it. Users will be able to send a remittance from the same interface they already use for cards, boarding passes, and IDs, with integrated fiat on- and off-ramps converting to and from local currency, while Solana's infrastructure operates behind the scenes. The Sui Network will also provide supporting infrastructure as part of the multi-partner arrangement.
Eligible Galaxy users will be able to send USDC directly from Samsung Wallet to compatible crypto wallets internationally, with no transfer fees charged by Samsung. Samsung Wallet will also enable eligible users to send money to qualifying bank accounts in more than 60 countries, with funds delivered in the recipient's local currency. Fees apply to those bank transfers, vary by destination country and amount, and are shown in the app with an estimated delivery time before the sender confirms.
Custody, Compliance, and the Coinbase Connection
Bastion, a stablecoin infrastructure provider for global enterprises and financial institutions, has been selected by Samsung as the licensed stablecoin custodian and an infrastructure partner for the new built-in stablecoin capabilities inside Samsung Wallet. Bastion has partnered with Coinbase as its official sub-custodian, safeguarding all USDC in Samsung Wallet through Coinbase Prime Vault.
Samsung described the upcoming feature as the next stage of its collaboration with Coinbase. Last year, Samsung expanded the Coinbase partnership to let U.S. Galaxy users fund Coinbase accounts with Samsung Pay.
Transfers will also require biometric authentication on registered Galaxy devices. The stated device reach describes the potential distribution of the feature, not confirmed adoption.

Ethereum (@ethereum) co-founder Vitalik Buterin (@VitalikButerin) has warned that artificial intelligence could expose serious weaknesses in widely used cryptographic systems within the next two years, putting pressure on the crypto industry to rethink its security foundations sooner than many expected.
A Threat Beyond Quantum Computing
Most crypto security debates have focused on quantum computers that may arrive someday. Buterin pointed at a threat that might show up sooner: AI that is very good at math. Buterin warned that AI advancements in mathematics could undermine elliptic curve cryptography and lattice-based systems like ML-DSA and fully homomorphic encryption (FHE) within two years. He specifically said there is a "good chance" that the practical security of lattice-based cryptography could face "serious hits" within that window due to AI-driven mathematical advances.
Lattice cryptography is a mathematical approach increasingly favored by researchers and standards bodies as a replacement for traditional encryption methods. It is widely viewed as resistant to attacks from quantum computers, making it a leading candidate for post-quantum cryptographic standards. Governments and technology firms have been migrating toward lattice-based schemes precisely because conventional encryption, including RSA and elliptic-curve systems, is expected to become vulnerable once quantum computing matures. Buterin's warning puts that assumed safe harbor in doubt.
Ethereum researcher Justin Drake made a similar point on the same day, emphasizing that recent breakthroughs in AI-driven mathematics could produce vulnerabilities in ECDSA signatures much sooner than previously anticipated and calling for faster preparation.
Ethereum's Response and Practical Advice for Users
Ethereum's Lean roadmap is already transitioning toward hash-based cryptography, avoiding lattice-based signatures and zero-knowledge structures. The roadmap has adopted WOTS or SPHINCS+ for signatures and excludes any lattice-based components. Buterin emphasized that hash function-based schemes provide greater resilience and should be prioritized.
For everyday users, Buterin's guidance is measured. He recommends prioritizing the storage of funds in addresses that have not yet initiated any transactions, where convenience allows, but advises against hastily migrating assets, as the migration process itself carries risks of fund loss. He also advised privacy protocols to avoid on-chain encryption and recommended that multisig wallets verify signatures off-chain.
Buterin framed his concern as a probability, not a certainty, and the two-year window is a forecast. Any concrete AI-assisted result against lattice schemes or ECDSA would turn this from a warning into an emergency.

XRP y HYPE destacan en una semana difícil
En una semana en la que la mayor parte del mercado cripto ha tenido dificultades para atraer capital nuevo, dos altcoins han ido contra la corriente. Los ETF al contado vinculados a @Ripple $XRP y @HyperliquidX $HYPE son los únicos productos de altcoins que registraron entradas positivas: los fondos de $XRP sumaron 3,14 millones de dólares durante la semana y los ETF de $HYPE añadieron 277.000 dólares, según @BSCNews.
La escasa amplitud de los flujos positivos pone de relieve lo selectivos que se han vuelto los compradores institucionales. En lugar de rotar ampliamente hacia las altcoins, los asignadores parecen estar eligiendo nombres específicos y manteniendo la cautela en el resto. El dinero institucional ha seguido fluyendo hacia las categorías más consolidadas de ETF de criptomonedas, mientras se retira de los productos más nuevos de altcoins. Este patrón encaja con una rotación de aversión al riesgo dentro del propio sector cripto, en la que los asignadores reducen su exposición a activos de mayor beta y mantienen sus posiciones principales.

@Chainlink cerró septiembre con un hito destacado: 40 nuevas integraciones en 24 usuarios, que abarcan plataformas de finanzas descentralizadas, empresas tecnológicas y redes blockchain emergentes. La cifra, compartida por el protocolo el 7 de octubre, subraya la rapidez con la que la infraestructura de $LINK se está convirtiendo en un componente estándar de la economía on-chain.
Quiénes se conectaron
La lista de septiembre abarca una amplia variedad de sectores. En el ámbito nativo de las criptomonedas, @Aave $AAVE y @Coinbase $COIN figuran entre los nombres más consolidados que han estrechado sus vínculos con Chainlink. @Monad $MON y @Arc representan redes más recientes que necesitan datos fiables e interoperabilidad desde el principio. @Paxos, el emisor regulado de stablecoins, y @sunrise también figuran entre las nuevas incorporaciones.

Nuevo récord de rendimiento para Cardano
La cadena de bloques @Cardano estableció un nuevo récord de transacciones por segundo el 7 de octubre de 2026, al alcanzar 329 TPS, según los datos registrados por @chainspect_app. La cifra supera el máximo anterior de Cardano, de 304 TPS, registrado a finales de 2024, y representa el mejor rendimiento histórico de la red en la mainnet.
Para una red que ha sido objeto de críticas durante mucho tiempo por la velocidad de su capa base, este hito tiene un valor simbólico. Chainspect, una plataforma independiente de análisis de cadenas de bloques que monitorea los TPS en tiempo real y máximos de más de 40 cadenas, es la principal fuente de seguimiento citada por la comunidad de Cardano en general para consultar métricas de rendimiento.

El ecosistema de Avalanche muestra señales de renovada vitalidad: los datos on-chain apuntan a un repunte generalizado de la actividad que va mucho más allá del relato institucional que ha definido gran parte de la historia de la cadena en 2026.
El volumen en DEX alcanza su máximo en seis meses
Según datos compartidos por @MSBIntel, el volumen de $AVAX en los DEX alcanzó aproximadamente los 1,13 mil millones de dólares durante la última semana, la cifra semanal más alta registrada en la cadena desde marzo. El repunte se produce mientras las credenciales institucionales de Avalanche han seguido fortaleciéndose a lo largo de 2026. Avalanche atrajo 131,2 millones de dólares en entradas de acciones tokenizadas durante la semana que terminó el 25 de septiembre de 2026, superando a todas las demás cadenas de bloques seguidas en conjunto. RWA.xyz informó de un valor de activos distribuidos de 1,80 mil millones de dólares y una capitalización de mercado de las stablecoins de 933,90 millones de dólares en Avalanche C-Chain. Esta base institucional parece estar creando las condiciones para que los operadores minoristas también vuelvan al ecosistema.

Stellar escala posiciones en la clasificación de activos del mundo real tokenizados
Según datos de @RWAFoundation_, @StellarOrg alberga ahora alrededor de 3.500 millones de dólares en activos del mundo real tokenizados, lo que la sitúa en tercer lugar entre todas las cadenas de bloques públicas. Solo @Ethereum y @BNBChain están por delante. Esta cifra deja al ecosistema de activos del mundo real tokenizados de Stellar muy por encima del Ledger $XRP de @Ripple, con 2.500 millones de dólares; @Solana, con 3.000 millones; y @Avax, con 1.700 millones.
La clasificación refleja un cambio de rumbo notable. El valor de los activos del mundo real tokenizados en Stellar aumentó alrededor de un 360 % en 2026, hasta acercarse a los 4.000 millones de dólares, frente a los 868,8 millones de dólares al cierre del año pasado, según un panel de Dune Analytics mantenido por Stellar. Ese ritmo de expansión superó con creces al del mercado en general: el informe del segundo trimestre de 2026 de la Stellar Development Foundation indica que los activos del mundo real tokenizados alcanzaron los 3.050 millones de dólares, tras duplicarse en un solo trimestre, mientras que el mercado general de estos activos creció alrededor de un 50 % durante el mismo periodo.
