Everything Still Runs on Ethereum! 🧠👀

Published

Description

Crypto has expanded into hundreds of ecosystems. New chains, new architectures, new experiments. But somehow, everything still seems to come back to Ethereum. Why? Tonight we take a step back and explore the Ethereum ecosystem as a whole — not just what it is, but why it continues to sit at the center of crypto. We’ll walk through: • why Ethereum became the foundation for DeFi • how its ecosystem evolved over time • why so many applications still build on it • how rollups are extending Ethereum’s reach • what keeps liquidity anchored to the network This isn’t just about Ethereum. It’s about understanding why certain ecosystems become dominant — and why they stay that way.

Real light. [music] I think that we're just holding on to something. Heat. Heat. I think that we're just holding on to something. that we're just holding on to something. Heat. Heat. I think that we just holding on to something. I think that we're just holding on to Tell me something. Don't do it. Welcome to Underground Crypto Deep Dive Research Show. Just getting everything put together here. Make sure we're over on the crypto bubbles. We sure are. And it's Monday and we're kicking off a new series. We're going to be doing ecosystems this week. So, it's going to be a little bit different than what you're used to, but also very much the same. Here we are over the crypto bubbles. Let me get this get this webcam working here. Bang. There we are. And uh welcome to the show.

Another awesome [music] week of streaming here. I don't know if this uh this mint was a good idea right before I go live, but we're gonna rock with it. And who's all in the chat? Looks like Melissa, Chris Go, Raw Handyman, the funky ferret. Shout out to everybody who's here and I hope you're excited to learn about why the Ethereum ecosystem is the core of really all DeFi smart contracts. I guess number one smart [music] contract platform. All right, let's get to one through 100 here. Seeing quite a bit of green on the day. And of course, when everything is green, River's down 24% to [music] $22.75. That doesn't surprise me. It's always moving kind of inverse to [music] the rest of the market. Towel up 13%. We've been talking about how strong Bit Tensor has been looking. Is

my microphone on? Okay, microphone is on. Always got to double triple check that. Then we got layer zero, which we haven't seen on the radar in a while. It's up 14.3%. Aptose up 13%. Let's drop down another 100. And as we do, let's look at the rundown here. 2.7% 3.7% 2.6%. So, some decent movement in the altcoins. So, 100 to 200. Let's see. We got JTO up 28%. Aerodyome up 13%. Saw this was down the other day. Undead games, you know, we love DeFi gaming. So, we've checked out this pro uh project in the past. They were still building up 20%. AR or Arweave up 14.4% and this Kula up 13%. Didn't look like it held it though. Let's drop down another 100. Usually only go to 300. Says yes, Mike is on. Thank you very much. So, we

[music] have the Casper Network, not to be confused with Caspa, which just starts with a K and ends with an A. This is Casper Network, is up 36.7%. Pippen down another 17.3%. When you thought it couldn't go any lower, look at this thing on the monthly. Just absolutely been uh decimated. Comedian up 12.8%. 8% tag up 10% TRIA down 10%. That's all the significance here. Let's go do our rundown. Friday and Saturday streams were a lot of fun. At least I enjoyed them quite a bit. All right, so where are we at? Bitcoin $7,647. Ethereum $2,142. XRP $142. B&B $637. Salana $91. Tron 30 cents up 4% in the last seven days. Dogecoin right where we left it at a low 9. Cardono 26 cents. [music] Hyperlid 37 or sorry Hyperliquid $37. That's a misspeak if I ever did

one. Deadwood, what's up, man? Welcome in. Welcome in. Um $351 for Monero Chain Link. $9. Canton Networks 14.5 XLM 16.5 Avalanche $9.52 har 9u 94 and let's [music] go see where flare is like 84 before right now it's 86 still in the top 100 and let's go take a look at what's trending today it's our usual rundown why we let people come on in. So we got Bitcoin backpack. Isn't Backpack a part of Hashera or am I confusing it with something else? Let's see. Salana ecosystem. It's an exchange. Backpack exchange. Okay. So yes, I am confusing that with something else. Bit Tensor of course trending. That should surprise nobody. [music] Uh, Pudgy Penguin, AOS Network, Sirene, Resolve USR, uh, XRP, Ethereum, Caspa, Zcash, Hyperlquid, Salana, Pi Network, and Manab. Can't say that there's anything that really sticks out to

me other than Backpack. And look at that chart. Says March 23. Oh, yeah. Let's go to the max chart there. There we go. [music] not the yearly and go to price and not market cap. Looks like token generation event the 23rd of March 2026 today and 56.3 million in market cap a billion max supply 250 million circulating supply again [music] we said it has a salana contract it's an exchange let's go take a look at it smash the like button I assume that's what he means thank you thank you very much said okay I Yes. Uh, modern finance. So, your broker, your bank, your exchange, trade, borrow, spend, all of those type of financial things. I want to see the actual That's like a landing page here. Kind of giving me Coin Gecko vibes there a little bit. Let

me turn this heater off. It is not needed. 12.4 APY on your Manad. There you go, Melissa. Are you getting that much yield on your manat anywhere else? Wire transfers even. All right. I don't see that very often. So then we got futures. Looks like they really have everything allin-one. And you can do looks like the leverage [music] is different on every coin, but Bitcoin is usually the highest leverage 75x and then Ethereum you got 50x BNB down to 40 and then it looks like it's somewhere under 20 for mostly everything else. Then of course you have lend vault uh BP. So, backpack participation program. This must be like their affiliate program, I'm assuming. Where you can stake wire discounts. Very interesting. I don't usually see that in a lot of these programs. And if we hit more, you

could download it. They have a mobile app. It looks like, of course, affiliate programs, all that other stuff. So, this looks interesting. I'll be keeping an eye on this project. [music] It's new. It's got a lot of the things that you would expect from any kind of decentralized exchange and some that you might not expect like [music] wire transfers said I don't like their wallet. Okay. Have you used their backpack wallet before? Are they the same wallet that's integrated [music] with um Hashera like third party wallet? I feel like that's where I remember it from. All right, now let's go to crypto rank. Let's see where the fear and greed index is at. Not sure I said it and forget it. It's on Atlantis website [music] and manad uh version website. Yes. Okay. Well, that explains a lot. That's

where I recognize [music] it from. Backpack's a pretty distinctive name. Fear and greed index at 11 and altcoin index at 50 right in the middle. So, the market's still very indecisive. Let's go take a look at what's trending over on Crypto Rank. Make it [music] the top 20, not the top 10. And let's [music] see what there is to get into today. And we don't force it. If there's not a bunch of new tokens to go over, then there's not a bunch of new tokens to go over. Hope everybody again is [music] enjoying their Monday. We got Bit Layer, Katana, uh, Bright Light Labs or Light, I remember that project, Super Form, Nexira, Backpack of course again, Bondex, Pax Gold, Tether, [music] S, Fabric Protocol, Sahara AI, Plasma, Aptose, Bit Tensor, IP or Story, Ethereum, Everland, FET, and of

course, I love to see FET actually getting some attention again. Bit Layer, of course, Bitcoin, DeFi, Katana is very much financial. Let's look at this BitLite Labs because it's been a little while. And let's see when this token came out. Looks like token generation the 22nd September 2025. 15.4 [music] million in its market cap been as high as 205. So, of course, it has fallen quite a bit. is a company working to build infrastructure for Bitcoin and Lightning Network ecosystems. So, that should pretty much not surprise anybody. Let's take a look at their website [music] real quick. Looks like you can connect your wallet right in. [music] Bit wallet extension not installed. So, I guess you have to have their extension installed. All right, so you get the gist. Bitcoin, DeFi, [music] Lightning Network, Bitlight Wallets. They have their

own wallet. Uh, of course, PayFi financial, but for Bitcoin DeFi. I don't think there's really anything else to say about this project right in a second. Let's see what else we want to talk about here. And we've been pretty heavy on things like Nexira, Katana, Super Form. Like, we've looked at those projects many times. Sign, [music] Fabric Protocol, Sahara AI, Plasma. Like we've talked a lot about almost all of these projects. We'll touch on Everlin again because that's probably something people know less about. Open source foundational video model and multi- uh modell agent ecosystem. So it looks like it has a lot to do [music] with AI. Yep. Got AI categories. Let's go to the weekly and see where the token generation event was. Looks like the 6th of October 2025. and it had a little recent run up,

right? All the way to 52 cents and then it's come all the way back down. So, I guess if you like this project and you were looking for an entry, they might have been giving you one. I should not have tried to eat this mint while I was live on stream. That was a mistake. All right, so here's their website. What are you dreaming to create? So, it's a lot about creating. It's a lot about AI, of course, video, >> [music] >> um, text, text to image. Uh, if you're not familiar with this stuff, then you're probably not using things like Grock or Chat GBT or anything like that. And these are all just examples of stuff you could do with it. Not a whole lot to talk about to be honest with you. Showcase is just more examples

of stuff you could do with it. Now, a lot of the AI can do pictures and stuff. Videos is a little bit harder to find. It's harder to find stuff that does videos. But there you go. Everlin AI is an AI project running on blockchain or what ecosystem was it in? Actually, I didn't catch that. Let's pull up tags here. B&B. So, Binance Chain and all right, let's move along to the story of the night and introduce the series, introduce the topic of the night. We're going to be doing ecosystems. I figured start with Ethereum. Makes a lot of sense to me. All right, so at [music] this point in crypto, there are more ecosystems than ever. I think everybody would agree with that. [music] New chains launch regularly and each promises something better faster. Right? Every [music] website

we read is like we're the newest and the best, the quickest, whatever metrics they want to tout depending on what kind of project it is. So faster transactions, lower fees, better user experience. And yet despite all of that, something interesting keeps happening. Everything still seems to come back to Ethereum. Very, very true. Most major DeFi protocols started there. Most stable coins are deeply connected to it. A large portion of crypto [music] liquidity still flows through its ecosystem. So the question becomes why? [music] Why can't people get away from Ethereum? Ethereum wasn't the fastest. It wasn't the cheapest, but it was the first to create a real platform [music] of applications. Developers could build on it. Users could interact with it. And over time something powerful formed an ecosystem. [music] As more applications launched, more users joined. And as more

users joined, more capital flowed in. And as more capital flowed in, more developers were drawn to build. This created a feedback loop. Ethereum became a place where things happened. Even as new chains emerged, they struggled to replicate the depth of Ethereum. Because ecosystems aren't just technology, they're networks of users, developers, and liquidity. all interacting at once. [music] Now, Ethereum is evolving again. Instead of trying to handle everything directly, it's becoming [music] a foundation of a larger system. Rollups are building on top of it. New layers are extending its reach. What started as a single blockchain or a monolithic blockchain [music] is becoming something much bigger, a base layer for an entire ecosystem. And that's why no matter how many new chains appear, everything still seems to run through Ethereum. I think anybody who's been around here for a while

knows that Ethereum is still the king of development inside of crypto. Now, of course, Salana, we're going to touch on all these different things as we go through the series, but I figured it makes too much sense [music] to not start with Ethereum. I think I said that backwards. It makes too much sense [music] uh yeah, to not start with Yeah, okay, I said it right. Anyways, Ethereum as the starting point. Ethereum was the first blockchain to support [music] smart contracts or programmable smart contracts at scale. This allowed developers to build applications directly on the chain. I don't know who's calling [music] me now. The birth of DeFi, right? So, most early DeFi protocols launched on Ethereum. This created a concentration of liquidity users and developers. And we're going to move along and talk about that. Let's type in

Ethereum. like if I can spell that is go to categories. So you have Ethereum P ecosystem classic Ethereum of course I don't know if you [music] would include that in Ethereum ecosystem as it's more of like a fork of it and it says proofof work ecosystem. It really should be proof of stake. I really expected like a straightup Ethereum category. I guess this is as best as we're going to get here. So, of course, we're not going to go over stable coins and things like that. Again, because of Ethereum's history and what our talking story kind of pointed out is that most liquidity still flows through somewhere through Ethereum at some point. So, of course, you got like all your stable coins, Tether, Gold, BNB, they even consider an Ethereum coin. I don't know why they would do that.

That's weird. Chain link, Pepe. Yeah, let's see all of them. I don't know if the ecosystem is just [music] so big that they don't have like an Ethereum category, but I do find that rather odd. And I just wanted to hop into it and see what all things we could talk about here. A V3 wrapped ETH, Coinbase wrap BTC. It's going to take a second to get through a lot of the wrapped [music] assets because of how big liquidity is on the Ethereum network. Sheibba Inu, Toncoin, everything pretty much touches Ethereum at some point. So, you're going to see a lot of projects that you know and maybe think of as their own separate thing, but all chains need liquidity. Blues Guy in the house. Welcome in. Welcome in. says, "Greetings, beautiful people, and gratitude to all underground, my

man. You awesome, bro. Thank you for all you do. Much appreciated. Let's [music] go. Hype in the chat. Back at you. Thanks for being here, Blues Guy. So, when it comes to talking about Ethereum ecosystem, you could pretty much um, you know, pick just about any project. Whoops, wrong thing. There we go. and talk about it because it's most likely somehow connected to Ethereum. I wish they had slightly better category here. Let's try this again. Yeah, they have ETH proof of work ecosystem, but I don't really think that that's I think that's a totally separate coin. Yeah, ETH proof of work is only 28 cents. ETH proof of work was pretty much people that really wanted to hold on to Ethereum proof of work when it moved to being proof of stake. They didn't want to let it go,

right? They wanted the glory days of proof of work on Ethereum. And so basically, this is their ecosystem. It's not very good. Is your DAP on Ethereum running? Well, you better go [music] catch it. Yeah, exactly. All right. So, network effects, right? And uh forgive me everybody. It might be a shorter stream today. We're going to definitely do our due diligence, but I I do have a lot of things going on. But that is not your problem. You're here for the show. So network effect as more applications launched on Ethereum it became more valuable. Therefore more users attracted more builders and more builders attracted more liquidity. This created and reinforcing cycle liquidity gravity liquidity tends to cluster where the most activity exists. It just makes sense. Ethereum becomes the primary hub for trading, lending and stable coins. When you

think liquidity in blockchain, you got to think of Ethereum, the expansion into rollups, right? So, think of all the layer twos. And why is base been so predominant? Because it's built upon the most reliable and secure blockchain out period. I don't I don't know if you could say Bitcoin's more secure. Bitcoin's pretty secure. I don't know how they stack up against each other, but that's not really even the conversation. And the conversation is more a conversation of building and you can't really build on Bitcoin. So instead of replacing Ethereum, new systems are building on top of it. Rollups, which we spent a lot of time in the last week talking about extended Ethereum's ecosystem rather than competing with it directly, right? It complements it. Ethereum as a settlement layer. So Ethereum is evolving into a base layer for security,

settlement, and finality. Other systems rely on it rather than replacing it. You know, for a long time we heard ETH killer this, ETH killer that. Ain't nobody [music] killed ETH yet. And now it seems like a lot of projects have transitioned to building alongside of it versus trying to compete with it. Why builders still choose Ethereum? So developers often build on Ethereum because of existing infrastructure, the tooling, which would be developing, the user base, the people already using it, and composability. Making sure we're caught up on the chat here. I don't know why it decided [music] to freeze all of a sudden. So, competing ecosystem, other chains attempt to compete by offering lower fees. That's been the one that everybody wanted to tout as why, you know, insert whatever chain was going to be able to compete with Ethereum

because they had lower fees, faster execution and different architecture, but Ethereum retains dominance [music] through the network effect. And I will say uh a lot of people went very hard against Ethereum because of its network fees. But in reality, the network fees is what makes it so secure. The trade-off, Ethereum sacrifices speed and cost for decentralization, security, and ecosystem depths. [music] Um the one thing that everybody loved about Bitcoin and still does is its retainment of value of course, but also its security, right? And so ETH coming as the next thing out after Bitcoin very much um kept that idea that security was of the utmost importance. [music] So the core insight here Ethereum remains dominant not because it's perfect but because its ecosystem is deeply entrenched and a lot of people have when you build something when you

get developers when you make a product whether it's financial or whatever it's an investment like you spent money to do that right and I want to show you guys some um I don't want to call them charts right there's some images of the ecosystem of Ethereum in [music] general if it'll open. Come on, make it bigger. Anyways, I guess while we wait for that. Check up on the chat. There we go. Now it's working. All right. Still very small. It should open up and get bigger. I don't know why it is lagging a little bit. Let's see if we can make this happen. Ah, I don't want to talk about it with it being that small. I want to make it nice and big for everybody. What can you do with computers and uh your [music] Wi-Fi speed? It

fluctuates, right? Come on. All right. very much not cooperating. That is not what [music] I needed. Again, I hope everybody's enjoying [music] Monday for as much as you could enjoy a Monday, right? Who are my nineto-ive people and stuff? They're like, "What are you talking about? Enjoy Monday. Monday sucks, right? Sunday night, you didn't want to go to work. Now you had to go to work. There you go. It's like the initiation of the week. All right, that is not working. Let's go over to Crypto Rank and see what they have for categories on Ethereum. Wow, everything is just super slow. It's probably because I'm streaming or you just hit random times where the Wi-Fi is slow. It's only happens when I'm streaming. All right, let's come over here. Now, the categories over on [music] uh Coin Gecko are

a little different. There we go. They have an Ethereum ecosystem [music] though. That's what I wanted. And really what I wanted to show you is that most projects that you might think about as being independent are actually Ethereum projects like Faky for example. Lido in the you know is a very financial product but uh [music] Lido has had a lot of popularity over time. And Pendle I don't think ever panned out as much as people wanted them to. But Pendle is of course there. Dententraland Pancake Swap [music] even interacts with Ethereum Center and and it's got 51 pages 51 pages [music] of projects that are in the Ethereum ecosystem in one way or another. And you could toggle it through tokenized assets, memes, dexes. There's 100 dexes, GameFi, stable coins. And that's really the point here that I'm trying

to make about Ethereum is that it is very much the core of all DeFi. Reliable J in the house. Today's Monday. He says, "Just kidding." Oh, you know, you felt it. We all [music] felt it. It's Monday for sure. And again, as you go through these Ethereum name service, I guess that one's pretty obvious. Pudgy Penguins, all of these projects, many of them, you know, they're all Ethereum based. Alchemy Pay, I haven't heard about that one in a while. Live Pier, do [music] yep, is very much a DEX. Since there's a 100 Dexes, [music] let's go look at that. So, look at all these different dexes. Why would you have 99 [music] different decentralized exchanges unless there was a wealth of liquidity says today's Monday and tomorrow it's Friday for me. Hey, there you go. He must be off

for the next couple of days. That's what I get from that. So, how many of these have you actually heard of? Right. Tai. I mean, we know what Tao is, right? Bit Tensor [music] ecosystem says it's brand new. We should check that out. I remember when we were going over Tao and Tao ecosystem. Uh, it was a little difficult to decide where the best decentralized exchanges were for Tao. Yeah, here we go. So, Tali has acquired Astrid. Okay. I wonder if Astrid is the one that we were using originally. So you got subnets. This looks a lot easier to use. And with uh Bit Tensor being so popular right now, this might be good information to somebody. This Templar has come up many times. So let's click trade and see. Wow. So it looks like it's relatively easy to

swap in and out of here. Just connect your wallet. pretty much any EVM wallet, Salana wallet [music] or BitTensor wallet. So, they give you some options here. And uh again, when we were doing the BitTensor ecosystem, I felt like a lot of people were saying, "How do I even buy a subnet?" [music] And this is going to be your place. Tali, which is a great name. the I don't know if it's Astrid that we found before when we were doing the deep dive, but I will say this is a lot more straightforward in name, right? All right, let's get out of that because we're not doing Bit Tensor ecosystem today. Camsta in the house. Yeah, Blues Guy says, "Tired to trade in my time. Soon, baby, soon." Yep, there you go. Uh, two days on, two days off. says

the blues guy. And again, look at all these decentralized exchanges. We don't got to go to all of them. The towel one kind of caught my eye, but we we don't have to go look at every exchange, right? Dydx [music] is one a lot of people would know. But look how many of them you don't know, right? Not just focusing on the ones that are obvious, but the ones that are maybe less obvious. I don't know why it started us on like page three of Dexes, though. Let's go to page [music] one. Yeah, of course. Things like unis swap, pancake. Let's see what other categories can we get into. Gamefy, of course. You know, I I'm itching to click GameFi. And a lot of things you would know. Sandbox, Dentralland. Did Dententraland pretty much fail? I don't think Dententraland

really made it. Axi Infinity, Heroes of Mavia, Pixels, Aluvium. Alivium, in my opinion, turned out to be pretty disappointing. Uh, at least so far. They're still building just taking [music] a really long time. Uh, Cyius, I should remember this um page whenever we are [music] looking for DeFi games, right? Pirate Nation, My Neighbor Alice, we looked at very briefly. Alien World. Yeah, we should definitely come back to this on like a DeFi [music] Friday, right? And then of course you have data service which is going to be a little techy and not retail central but the backend [music] and the focus for a lot of things and let's go to lending protocols. So maker DAO compound goldfinch a uh which ones do you recognize? World Liberty Finance is even very much built into the Ethereum ecosystem. Spark. Anybody remember

Spark? When it came out, I bought like [music] 50 bucks of it. I have no idea what it's doing, but I don't think it's good. Flying Tulip was on our radar a lot. I don't know how well it's doing, but it is a newer project for sure. And let's see if this thing ever decided [music] to play ball. Doesn't seem like it. [clears throat] Said I can feel the heat. I can feel the sun on my neck. I can feel the sand between my toes. Oh man, a dream starts in the mind. Let's go. Let's raise that crypto IQ. Well, I really was looking forward to using some of these images to demonstrate the largestgess of the ecosystem of Ethereum. And usually all I have to do is double click them and they're like full screen. I don't know

why it's not cooperating. So, that sucks. That was a big part of what I was going to do here. There we go. Ethereum ecosystem. [music] Go to images. There we go. This will work better. This will actually let me pull it up hopefully. >> No, there we go. You got to open it in a new tab. I think that's what it is. So, you have your like staking layers, [music] your application layers. A lot of the other photos were full far more indepth than that one. This is the one I really wanted to look at. All right. It's not going to let me zoom in either, but as you can see, you have your infrastructure, your lender, lending, and borrowing. I'm just going to roll with this since I can't seem to get it to make it full screen.

Uh swaps, derivatives, and synthetics. Synthetics were supposed to be a really big thing and [music] I don't know they just kind of creep in the background and haven't really taken off. asset management predictions of course poly market uh reporting aggregators yield farming data and oracles and tooling for developers wallets tracking privacy payment and transfer bridges of course uh communities exchanges NFT and gaming and side chains like things like Polygon [music] I'm surprised base isn't in there maybe this is an older picture of the ecosystem Uh, look up [music] Impel Swift SEPA alternatives. Let's see what he's talking about. So swift. You mean these projects Swift or what do you mean? Let's see. Let me read it again. Look up Impel Swift SEPA alternatives today. He says uh today awesome to a day to a daily awesome. There we go.

That's what he was saying. Impel Swift SEPA alternative. Yeah, I don't know what you're talking about, man. It's called Impel. Okay. I searched it. Is it a new newer token? [clears throat] I see a a really tiny project here. Let's look it up on crypto rank. Okay, now I get what you're saying. Yeah, it's not coming up for me. Uh, what do we want to go over to like deck screener, I guess. No token. Well, it's part [music] of XDC. Gotcha. All right. It's a little hard to look up when there's no not because there's no token. If [music] it's really small, you're just not going to get anything for it. So, [music] I don't really have any way of looking it up necessarily. Well, we ran through the show way too fast. That's not supposed to happen. I

guess I got to slow it [music] down a little bit. I did say it was going to be a quick stream. So, hopefully [music] nobody's too disappointed on a Monday with me here. I want to look at new tokens as well [music] today. They've changed things around a little bit. Recently listed. There we go. No, just googling it. It is part of the ISO messaging. All right. So, Vanguard Digital Oil Reserve, that's a meme. They're I guess they're not going to start with the stop. I mean, anyways, with these oil reserve memes, uh Coreweave. Yeah, these are the last 30 days. Let's go to like the last seven days. That's a little better. So, you got Coree, Ono, tokenize. Looks like a lot of tokenized stuff. Ono. Ono. Ono. So, I guess is just steady building, huh? Ono's really

getting after it. [music] We don't see really any news about it, though. So, they must be uh doing that for a while. We got some kind of black hole Chinese meme. Chipation. I don't know what the heck that means. Thermo Fisher scientific tokenized [music] stock. Again, almost everything I see here has to do with Ono, Disney, T-Mobile. So's ecosystem is really building itself out, huh? Tokenized [music] asset projects. Melissa says, "Everything is awesome. You move as fast as you want." Hey, sometimes it just goes like that. Uh, to a daily awesome. I'm just going to call you awesome. How about that? It says bingo. Built on XDC network, it facilitates secure real-time crossber payments using digital assets like XDC or stable coins. Is it going to come [music] step on XRP's toes? Is that what you're saying? It's going

to compete with XRP. All right. Is there anything that's not a tokenized asset? Of course, I clicked something and messed it all up. Let's refresh. recently listed. There we go. Last 30 days. All right. The popups on Crypto [music] Rank. Telling you, I thank God for them every day. Uh cost DeFi. So, what is that? Of course, these are going to be really small tokens, [music] guys, but it's been a while since we looked at them. AOS is a protocol building a cross-chain and AI integrated ecosystem focused on community governance and addressing fairness in token distribution. That's an interesting mission to be after here. Oh, I've been blocked from the website. got some memes, stable coins, more memes, and then just tokenized assets like like you wouldn't believe. And if they're just tokenizing like everything over on the stock

market, like it's going to just go forever. SP 500 derivatives, aliens are real. Okay, it's an interesting meme. Catching a little bit of wind though. 731,000 robot money titan trying I'm not going to name every uh tokenized asset that just seems a little bit repetitive interoperability and [music] military grade security and XDC is actual utility XRP is just a commodity of course it's [music] going to crush XRP all right hot take hot take no it's not the bricks replacement So, says [music] Blues Guy. And then I guess for anybody who doesn't know, let's pull up XDC. I know a lot of people love their XDC. Uh, not only that, but ask yourself, why is everyone like XRP, X, HAR, Canton, Soul, all building EVM side chains? Nice. He says, "Lol, look up on PEL." I'll get to it in

a minute. Be mindful of what you claim here, my man. What did he claim that was so Oh, the XRP was going to get crushed by XDC. First, I kind of wanted to show everybody what XDC is, right? So, decentralized smart contract platform, you know, first and foremost. But what I really wanted to go to show is the ecosystem. So, let's see. Razer Network, Swift. I think you stepped on Blue's guy's toes a little bit there. Uh, [music] Coinsby, Welli, trying to see how many of these projects and its ecosystem I'm familiar with. It's like a whole other world over here on XDC. I've looked at XDC before, but it's been a little while since then. [music] Stronghold, I've heard of that. Although that looked like Stronghold Security, that might not be the same thing. Pandoracape. Oh, that's gaming.

So, it's supposed to be like some kind of Runescape. Is that what that is? Meta Soccer. See, it seems like there's some game fis or some way to uh sort these. Yeah, of course. Let's look at RWA here. Comp tech gold. So, yeah, a lot of alternative uh projects and stuff. You would think maybe Impel would be in here, right? Alliances, Block Degree, and [music] Coinsby. Coinsby is the leading platform that allows you to use cryptocurrencies to purchase gift cards, [music] mobile topups, and stuff. Okay. [music] The first meme launch platform on the XDC network. So, I guess uh BBB pump is [music] their pump.f fun kind of equivalent. XDCR3 Corda. [music] Yep. Digital assets shared ledger with R3. XDC 2.0 [music] with subnets is cracked. Says, "Nah, I'm going to argue here. I've been deep [music] dive over

XDC and Quinton. It'll do good, but it ain't going to [music] crash nothing." So, he's saying it'll it'll go well alongside XRP and stuff, but he doesn't think it's [music] going to overtake XRP. What do we got for gaming? You know, I'm interested in that. Gamma. All right. They have a few things. I'll have to remember that when we do our DeFi Fridays. All right. And then we'll do what he wanted. Impel XDC. [music] >> Oh, I put [music] too many things in there. So, Impel AI. Is that what you're talking about? That doesn't sound right for automotive. [music] That doesn't sound right at all. says you have to look up impel. Okay. I mean, [music] if I just type in Impel on Google, it's going to know what I'm talking about. You see what I'm saying? Got to

give it a little bit more direction than just the word impel. Okay. So, you want me to type in all those things. [music] All right. So here we go talking about Impel is a blockchainbased fintech platform that provides costefficient ICO. Yep. Compliant alternative to Swift and Sappa. Yeah, I mean that's pretty much what you had already said. Is there like a website to represent the project? Cuz that's kind of what I'm looking for. Maybe Twitter would be a better place to find it. I see the three R Corda platforms like I see but that's gold. That's goldfinch, right? I get the idea of what you're saying. Like I get the gist of what you're talking about. I mean, that's why I started talking about XRP, right? Cuz that's one of the few things that would be in the same

ballpark here. Then he says [music] SBIXDC AP pack. Okay. Uh yeah, I'm not here. What's We'll go over to Twitter maybe. Right. Take a look at that. Does Impel have a Twitter? All right, I'm going to move along for that. I I I'm not sure what you wanted me to do exactly there, but I tried. I always try for new people in the in the chat. XDC is pretty cool. It does have an ecosystem [music] of its own that is very much of its own. What I like kind of about XDC is that it does [music] have its own projects and stuff. They're not just like the same recycled projects, which is kind of what you see when we talk about like Ethereum ecosystem. A lot of it is the same projects you already know because everything pretty much

touches Ethereum. says, "I sent the link." Where did you send it? In the Discord. You sent the link. >> I see some [music] people posted about some GameFi. I see Melissa was posting in the Gamefy tab. That's cool. This Continuum World play to earn game. Okay. I'll have to check that out. That'll definitely be on the roster. I don't know why else to say. I don't know why I can't find it in this chat. A lot of times it'll stop you from posting links in the chat. Um, so we do have a Discord if you want to join that. That's a better place to put links. Bro, I've [music] been in that Japan banking system, SBI Holdings. They are using multiple chains. I know that uh Japan is pretty big on uh XRP, but I wouldn't doubt that they

have multiple things that they're using. I mean, that would only really make sense. I mean, base ecosystem very much does count as Ethereum ecosystem, too. And again, you see all the same projects. The whole point of a lot of what I'm trying to get it to is that Ethereum touches pretty much everything. Uh you're going to see base and uh polygon. Oh, yeah. base polygon and other layers like arbitum. They all touch a lot of the same stuff. And again, oh, did I already close out of my talking points? Dang, I wish I wouldn't have did that. But anyways, you'll see that um everything pretty much flows together and Ethereum is the home of development and liquidity for blockchain technology. So, just fine. How are you tonight? Let's do our test net stuff again. And I am running through

the stream pretty quick. Yes, I'm not debating on if they're using multiple chains. What [music] I'm saying is when you look at Composer X and the currency and the and scrutinize and [music] the DTCC, they're using XDC for the actual tokenization. Okay, I follow and I'm not arguing with you. I know um you know, Blues Guy is pretty deep in a lot of that stuff. I don't think he was really arguing with anything other than maybe your claim that it was going to crush XRP. I think that was the the point that he was mostly arguing. I think a lot of these things will work in their best capacity, right? Maybe XDC is best for tokenizing assets or maybe XRP works better for crossber payments. Um, I think everything will pretty much find its niche. Everything will pretty [music]

much find its space. I don't think it's like for a long time in crypto we were in this world of like one thing or the other, right? It's rather going to be Ethereum or it's going to be something that kills Ethereum because for a long time crypto didn't have a lot of users and attention and so it was kind of like that when something came out and the masses moved the other project would just die. I think we're in a bigger space now. Is it huge? Is it all-encompassing? No, not necessarily. But it is growing by the day. And I just still had a lot of things up from the last couple shows that we were doing. I think I need to vote in this proxy real quick. And I'm going to pretty much hit a round or two

of Panzer Dogs on my way out the door. I do apologize for the short stream. I hate [music] to do that to you guys, but um totally awesome, man. I really appreciate you being here. I love your enthusiasm about your XDC or about XDC. I don't know why I said your XDC like it was yours, but [music] um we really welcome people here who are very enthusiastic about certain things. and uh everybody in our, you know, Discord and things are pretty much very um adamant about one thing or another. And so, yeah, I really just invite you to hang out with us a little bit more and tell [music] us more about, you know, tell us more about what XDC and this uh Impel, you know, really means to you. Maybe find some more resources for us to look

at, find some more like explainers and stuff. It's a little hard to do a ton of research on it on the fly on the stream because I I I got to keep downtime to a minimum. So, I don't want to spend a bunch of time reading through stuff. Something I could maybe look at a little bit more on my off time. If you want to join uh [music] the Discord or you want to message me directly in Discord, this thing is lagging like crazy. I knew the internet was terrible today. But yeah, if you want to message me directly and stuff like that and give me a few more resources and stuff, I could present it a lot better on the stream, if you know what I mean. Hey, I got one. Even though we have crazy lag going

on here. Yo, the lag is nuts. I don't think I'll be able to kill anybody. Uh yes because XRP is [music] just a commodity which means which legally means it's not needed. ETH BTC soul all commodity XDC is a utility digital token. [music] That means it's required. Okay. Says oh yeah XDC is used quietly and is building strong in the background along with XRP and others. Yep. messaging making it easier for banks to communicate between them. Many will participate in the mist. I'm not even really trying to play [music] this right now. The lag is so terrible. Yeah, I hear [music] what you're saying. Totally awesome. I just have to double check a couple of things about what you're saying. I can't just take it at [music] face value. Although, there's a good chance you probably are right. Wow.

The first time I lost, like my team lost on this game in a long time. Well, with the internet being terrible, I'm not going to bother trying to play [music] that again. That sucked. Yeah, I I don't know about XRP not being needed. I mean, of course, again, talking about taking things at face [music] value, XRP has um, you know, stated many times that the token XRP is [music] absolutely needed in their ecosystem. So, I do believe anybody who uses XRP system for crossber payments will be using the XRP token. I know that there's a lot that's said out there about [music] XRP and that there's a lot of people who say a lot of crazy stuff. So, I'm not siding with every person who says crazy stuff about XRP. And just [music] like any end of the stream,

even if it's coming quickly, I'm going to go ahead [music] and uh mess with some chainers real fast and then I'm probably going to hop off. I think I made my point that I wanted to make today, which was Ethereum [music] is the core. I showed you how many different projects are all tied in with Ethereum. I want to show a few more [music] um visual representations, right, of the whole ecosystem. I think you got the idea from the picture. I just wanted to go over [music] it in a little more fun way, and I didn't really get to uh cuz I couldn't get anything to go full screen. Uh well, okay, that's your opinion [music] only. That's fine. Be mindful what you claim though because obviously have no clue, my man. Yeah. I mean, people in those circles

debate a lot of things, right? In regards to the XRP talk, what gives the US dollar its value? XRP has that and some. I do agree with that. uh just for gas, not the token itself. You can use XRP. Uh it's like using a bar of gold or oil stock. They're [music] commodities. I mean, I get I get the argument for sure. Just going to grab a couple of things here. keeps giving me the wrong fertilizer that I need for upgrades. It's very annoying. See what's going on in the hours for crypto bubbles. in the hour. Sirene's down 31.9%. That reminds me, [music] let's go take a look at the uh top gainers, top losers of the day. Sirene's got to be on there now, right? Yeah, Sirene's like [music] the fifth biggest loser. Backpacks down 52%. Guess that

didn't go so well. PQ, it's a very interesting project. I like that one. Uh, up 32.4%. Subnet number four, Teragon, which has been around for quite some time, is up 30%. Casper Network up 33%. Mantra, the old one, it seems like people are like rejecting the uh the rebrand or the move in the ticker, you know, change of contract. The old mantra is up [music] uh 24%. And then of course not a lot after that. Here's some more subnets. So bit uh yeah [music] bit tensor towel ecosystem really heating up. That's another big takeaway from today. And of course overall market cap up 3% to 2.5 trillion. Again totally awesome. if you want to provide me some actual resources to look at uh specifically around how um XTC is, you know, [music] a utility and not a commodity and

that whole argument. If you want to point me to some resources for that, I'd [music] be glad to look at that. Um yeah, if you really want to kind of make a case, I would look into that. But you could just message me directly on Discord [music] or we have, you know, a chat in the Discord. Blues Guy says, "I want to spend more time on this. XRP is beyond the understanding. That's fine. Opinions matter." Sure. Everybody has opinions. That's how it goes. His opinion is different. We're perfectly fine with that. And I would I still welcome you into the, you know, into the community and would love to hear more about what you're saying before I make too much discernment one way or the other. So, what is this? IQ. [music] They're They're stealing my coin here. Uh,

Everedia has branded. So, Everedia sounds like some kind of research something. IQ Wiki. It just stuck out to me. The coin doesn't look like it did very well. Where are we at? The Oh, 16th of July, 2018. Very interesting. says, "Bro, I did look up the CFTC and SEC new rules, lol." Okay. I don't know if you're talking to me or if you're talking to Blues Guy. All right, everybody. Well, have a good night. Like I said, it was [music] going to be a short stream, but better that I hop on, say hello to everybody, and we have a stream than not one at [music] all. Tomorrow, I'll be back. It'll be a longer stream tomorrow. We'll have a lot more to talk about. We'll be going over a different ecosystem. We're going to be going over like a

different ecosystem every day. [music] Should be a really fun week to uh to hang out and talk with everybody and raise our crypto IQ's overall. Just trying to give you guys a week of something different [music] than just in depth about blockchain and stuff like that. Just wanted to give you guys a fun week of just ecosystems, right? It's like that. It's like that week in school where the teacher was like, "We're going to watch videos and take notes versus doing whole lectures and stuff like that, right? [music] And uh I really look forward to it. It's going to be a lot of fun. Have a great night everybody. You know what it is. Stay underground. Stay crypto. Thanks for being here. I'll see you tomorrow night." [music] And uh Crypto Run out.
