Tracking Digital Asset Markets Beyond Crypto-Native Venues

Введение

Glassnode has expanded its analytics platform to track digital asset markets beyond crypto-native venues. New data includes daily price and volume for U.S. spot ETFs and publicly-listed digital asset treasury (DAT) companies. This allows users to compare the behavior of these listed equities against underlying crypto assets, assessing which stocks act as strong proxies. ETF trading volume data provides insights into institutional participation and liquidity, helping to distinguish genuine market trends from thin, speculative moves. These new metrics offer a unified view of crypto exposure through traditional finance instruments, bridging the gap between on-chain and traditional market data.

Glassnode has continued to expand its Traditional Finance coverage in Studio, helping users connect crypto-native market activity with the growing universe of listed instruments tied to digital assets.

This expansion reflects the growing role of ETFs, treasury companies, and other listed vehicles in digital asset market analysis, as institutional exposure increasingly moves beyond spot markets.

Two new metric families are now live:

  • US Spot ETF Price & Volume
  • US Digital Asset Treasury Company Price & Volume.

For each selected crypto asset, users can now retrieve daily price and traded volume across the relevant US spot ETFs and publicly listed treasury companies, with one time series per ticker. This gives investors a more complete view of how crypto exposure is being expressed through traditional equity markets.

DATs: Analyzing Equity Behavior Relative to Crypto

For US Digital Asset Treasury (DAT) companies, the data makes it easier to compare how listed equities behave relative to the underlying crypto asset and assess which names exhibit stronger or weaker equity beta to crypto market movements.

For example, users can compare BTC performance against companies holding BTC on their balance sheet to identify which stocks behave more like direct crypto proxies, and which names trade with a more idiosyncratic equity profile.

US Spot ETF Volume: Assessing Participation and Liquidity Conditions

The addition of trading volume is particularly useful for US spot ETFs. Trading volume provides insight into liquidity, participation, and conviction.

For example, a sharp spike in ETF trading volume around a major price move or macro event can signal heavy institutional repositioning — and comparing ETF volume against the underlying spot market shows how much real flow is moving through TradFi venues versus crypto-native ones. Sustained volume can confirm genuine demand behind a price trend, while thin volume on a move may warrant more caution.

Together, these new metrics strengthen Glassnode’s ability to bridge crypto-native data with traditional market instruments, giving users a unified view of spot assets, ETFs, and listed treasury vehicles directly in Studio.

Top 10 Promising Emerging Hyperliquid Native Protocols to Watch

Title: A Review of 10 Emerging Native Protocols on Hyperliquid Hyperliquid is evolving beyond perpetual contracts into a comprehensive on-chain financial stack. This article highlights 10 key native protocols driving this growth: 1. **Monetrix**: A yield-optimizing protocol akin to Ethena, aggregating funding rates, HLP rewards, maker rebates, and HIP-3 into a single stablecoin yield. 2. **ROSETTA**: An automated stablecoin yield router, allocating USDC across top protocols (e.g., Felix, Aave, HLP) for optimal returns, factoring in gas and slippage. 3. **papertrade.xyz**: A fair-launched perpetuals protocol offering up to 1000x leverage, no funding rates, no slippage, and fully on-chain, oracle-based execution. 4. **alt.fun**: A launchpad where tokens are paired with leveraged perpetual positions (2x-5x), linking token price to trading activity and underlying position performance. 5. **Ventuals**: Pre-IPO perpetual contracts (built on HIP-3) allowing up to 10x leveraged speculation on valuations of private companies like SpaceX and Stripe. 6. **Liminal**: A delta-neutral yield protocol that captures funding rates via automated short positions and uses generated xTokens (xBTC, etc.) as DeFi collateral. 7. **Melt**: Brings tokenized stocks, commodities, and RWAs to Hyperliquid spot markets, enabling 24/7 trading alongside crypto assets. 8. **Chainsight**: An oracle and data infrastructure protocol providing low-latency (<3s) price feeds, volatility indices, and risk metrics for novel derivatives. 9. **rip.xyz**: Tokenized vault strategies on HyperEVM; its flagship rHYPURR offers liquidity and fractional exposure to a Hypurr NFT basket, priced hourly via NAV. 10. **Markets**: A perpetuals exchange (by Kinetiq) for trading stocks, forex, commodities, bonds, and crypto with up to 50x leverage, using USDH collateral and Kaiko oracles. These protocols form the foundational layer for generating real yield, liquidity, and innovative financial products natively on Hyperliquid.

Musk Posted a Recruitment Ad for SpaceX, and After Reading the Comments Section, I Understood

On May 20th, SpaceX filed for a landmark IPO with a $1.75 trillion valuation. Shortly after, Elon Musk posted a recruitment call on X, seeking "world-class engineers and physicists" for SpaceX. The application process was starkly simple: email with three bullet points proving "exceptional ability," with real, complex projects as a plus. Musk promised to review qualifying emails himself. The post garnered millions of views and thousands of replies, revealing a spectrum of responses. Most comments, including a highly-upvoted humorous one listing absurd "skills," merely listed credentials or experiences in a conventional, non-differentiating way. This highlighted a key insight: a traditional resume listing degrees and skills often fails to demonstrate true exceptionalism. Effective self-presentation requires "performance efficiency." A standout reply came from an OpenAI engineering lead, who simply stated "codex." This demonstrated that for those who have built significant, recognized products, the product itself becomes the ultimate resume. The article argues that in the AI era, any tangible, shareable output—a tool, research, or online project—serves as a living, self-evident credential more powerful than a list of attributes. However, a twist emerged when applicants found the provided email address non-functional, leading to speculation that the post might also serve as an IPO publicity stunt, projecting an image of aggressive talent acquisition to investors. Ultimately, the episode served as a microcosm: some participate through performance, others through proof of work, while some question the reality of the stage itself. It underscores the enduring challenge of defining and demonstrating value in an age of abundant, yet often superficial, content.

Cutting Off OpenAI, Anthropic Acquires the Tool Provider Used by a Quarter of Global Developers

Anthropic has acquired Stainless, a developer tool company that automatically generated official SDKs (Software Development Kits) for AI giants including OpenAI, Anthropic, Meta, and Cloudflare. The deal, reportedly valued at around $300 million, marks a strategic shift for Anthropic as it builds its "AI agent" infrastructure. Stainless acted as a "translator," converting complex API specifications into ready-to-use code libraries for developers. Its tools indirectly reached about a quarter of professional software developers globally. Following the acquisition, Stainless will shut down its public products and its team will join Anthropic to focus on internal platform development, notably for the Claude Platform. Existing SDKs remain with their respective client companies but will no longer receive updates from Stainless. This move is part of Anthropic's broader 18-month strategy to assemble a complete "agent stack." The stack consists of the Claude model at its core, the newly acquired Stainless for standardized API interfaces, and the Model Context Protocol (MCP), an open standard for connecting agents to external tools and data. This contrasts with OpenAI's focus on model generations and consumer-scale compute. Anthropic believes an agent's ultimate utility depends on its ability to connect to external systems. By internalizing the SDK layer and promoting MCP as a connection standard, Anthropic aims to lock in long-term ecosystem advantages and create path dependency, moving beyond the transient lead provided by any single model generation.
