Soil Farm (@soil_farm) has launched a DeFi yield protocol offering institutional-style on-chain lending across USDC, RLUSD and XRP. Its XRP vault is deployed natively on XRPL and offers a 5% fixed annual yield without using bridges. The protocol also offers a flexible USDC/RLUSD liquid vault with ~5% fixed APR and a credit vault targeting ~8% yield, supported by ORQO’s regulated infrastructure and professional asset management.

Ethereum staking infrastructure protocol ether.fi said it has partnered with decentralized insurance protocol Nexus Mutual to provide on-chain insurance covering potential slashing risks during ETH staking. The arrangement is positioned for institutional-scale users and is aimed at boosting trust and adoption among large stakers on ether.fi. The partnership does not change Ethereum’s base protocol rules, but seeks to reduce staking tail risk and indirectly support a more resilient staking ecosystem and improved capital efficiency, according to ether.fi.

Hertzflow has formally launched a decentralized leveraged-trading infrastructure on BNB Chain, enabling permissionless market creation, up to 1000x leverage, and a Vault/Pools model where liquidity functions as strategy. The project is backed by YZi Labs and positions BNB Chain as its primary deployment focus, aiming to activate existing TVL on the chain and reshape how leverage trading is built. The launch contrasts its architecture with existing perp DEX models such as GMX, framing the difference as foundational rather than incremental. The update does not involve a token issuance, listing, or regulatory change.

$Player No.9 (contract address: 0x55a86b5ea2861919fcd3ecbc2f8a6162cb53ffff) said it has permanently burned 65M tokens. The project also reported holding a 500+ BNB on-chain treasury reserve. It said the treasury supports an autofunded 6% buyback mechanism and that liquidity is increasing.

Tokenized US Treasuries on the XRP Ledger increased from $50,000,000 to $418,500,000 over twelve months, an 8x jump. Transfer volume reached $352,300,000 in just four months. That compares with $70,100,000 for all of 2025, or 5x in roughly a third of the time.

IOTrader has gone live on the Ethereum mainnet, expanding its decentralized trading services to the ETH network. To mark the launch, the platform is running a limited-time campaign offering a $50 trading bonus to users who deposit at least $10 and complete their first trade. The integration is positioned as an expansion of spot-trading infrastructure within the Ethereum ecosystem and aims to increase on-chain usage. The promotion is open to all users, with no stated regional restrictions or KYC requirements, and does not involve regulatory approval, a token issuance, or a protocol upgrade.

Jupiter (JUP) says it has launched more than 15 products spanning swaps, perpetuals, a global card, mobile and desktop wallets, portfolio tracking, asset lending, prediction markets and a gacha machine. At the time of the post, the protocol’s total value locked was cited at $1.5B, alongside $15M in monthly generated fees. Despite that breadth, JUP was described as still trading at $0.2.

$BoLe, a token on BSC, highlights its core mechanics, including 4.3M+ tokens permanently burned and treasury reserves above 860 BNB. It says transaction tax fees are automatically routed to strengthen the treasury, while liquidity continues to expand. The contract is public and the total supply is fixed, forming a thesis built on shrinking supply, a growing treasury, and potential buybacks. The author says the project still appears to be in an early stage.

BoLe ($BoLe) has burned more than 4.3M tokens, with its automatic deflation mechanism continuing to run. The project’s treasury balance has crossed 860 BNB, while tax revenue continues to flow in and liquidity keeps growing. The mechanisms are implemented via a public smart contract with a fixed total supply. The update does not mention listings on major exchanges or any major partnership developments, focusing instead on incremental on-chain economic metrics.

Gate DEX and USDD have launched a yield-boost campaign across BNB Smart Chain (BSC) and Ethereum running through 2026 July 30. USDD Earn APY has been raised to 7.89% on BSC and 7.04% on Ethereum. The campaign also offers a total 50,000 USDD reward pool, allocating 30,000 USDD on BSC (1,000 USDD per day) and 20,000 USDD on Ethereum (about 666 USDD per day). It is designed to strengthen USDD’s multichain liquidity and user participation, tied directly to assets in the USDD, BNB and ETH ecosystems.
