Just last week when Bitcoin was trading below $90k, we thought it was over. The timeline was panicking, doomsday charts were flying around, and everyone briefly remembered they had “touch grass” goals for 2025.
Fast forward to today, fear is slowly fading away and things feel like they’re restoring back to normal. The cycle of despair → hopium → cope → joy is truly undefeated.
And speaking of mood swings, the news cycle had its own share.
Kalshi has announced it’s now CNN’s official prediction markets partner. Political pundits, data analysts, and your uncle who watches cable news every night will soon be staring at on-screen odds powered by onchain prediction markets.
CNN’s Chief Data Analyst Harry Enten will be weaving Kalshi’s real-time probabilities directly into programming, and even a Kalshi-branded ticker is going live.
Still on prediction markets, CZ-owned Trust Wallet has also launched its own native prediction markets inside the app, called ‘Predictions,’ and eligible users can bet on everything from crypto to politics to sports, without leaving the wallet.
Aggregated markets, self-custody, simple yes/no outcomes - basically, it’s Polymarket but tucked inside the same app people use to hold memecoins and accidentally lose seed phrases.
Meanwhile, over in DeFi-land, Aave is rethinking its entire multichain strategy, which might just be a diplomatic way of saying: “Maybe we’re deployed on too many chains.”
Aave is currently live on at least 18 networks, but several of them bring in shockingly little revenue. zkSync, Metis, and Soneium are topping the list of low-performers that Aave’s governance reps are pushing to deprecate.
Some delegates want a strict $2 million annual revenue requirement for future deployments. Others warn that shrinking too much could backfire and reduce Aave’s influence.
The early snapshot vote is showing 100% support for reevaluating the multichain footprint, so we may actually see a retrenchment for one of crypto’s most expansion-heavy protocols.
Speaking of contraction: Ethereum treasuries are so far not looking too hot anymore.
Bitwise data shows corporate ETH purchases fell to just 370,000 ETH in November, down 81% from August’s 1.97 million peak. What was once hyped as “this cycle’s altseason” is now unwinding.
Bitmine (Tom Lee’s firm) remains the mega-whale, holding more ETH than all 68 other treasury companies combined. Smaller players on the other hand are getting crushed by falling premiums and shrinking capital access.
Meanwhile, Sam Bankman-Fried is back on the timeline, praising Donald Trump’s pardon of former Honduran president Juan Orlando Hernández.
The same SBF who donated $5.2 million to defeat Trump in 2020 is now publicly celebrating one of Trump’s pardons while quietly seeking one himself.
He called Hernández “one of the kindest and most dedicated people I’ve met,” which is pretty ironic. SBF’s appeal process is underway, but his chances remain slim, though clearly, he’s trying every possible angle.

Tapestry is building Solana’s user-owned social graph, pulling data from Farcaster, Bluesky, and Lens into one onchain layer. Its flagship AI companion game, Zumi, is where it all comes alive.
Zumi basically listens, remembers, reacts, and evolves with you, helping with trades, discovery, or just daily brain noise. It’s part digital pet, part agent, and fully plugged into Solana for real-time autonomy.
What sets Tapestry apart is how human the experience feels: Zumi gives unlimited attention, builds personal memories, and rewards engagement. It launched on the App Store earlier this quarter.
At the protocol level, Tapestry unifies social data under one roof, making it easy for devs to access and build upon this layer through a simple API.
It pretty much functions as the identity, memory, and economic graph for agents and apps by combining user identity with persistent memory and a framework for value exchange.
We are currently at a stage where folks around the world are comfortable interacting with AI chatbots. We’re witnessing a global shift toward more sophisticated AI products, and Tapestry’s approach is designed to give you an edge.
The success of Zumi is a potential game-changer for agentic commerce due to one key reason: trust enables transactions.
If you wanna stay ahead of the curve, I’d say familiarize yourself with the Tapestry ecosystem and keep an eye on everything that they’re building.
To save you doom scrolling.
Survivors will be rewarded!
