Uniswap Labs founder and CEO Hayden Adams said at WebX 2026 in Tokyo that Robinhood Chain has become one of the most talked-about topics in crypto because of its rapid early growth. He said the chain already has both meme-related activity and real-world assets, or RWA, which he described as especially promising for a new network. In his view, Robinhood Chain could serve as a bridge between tokenized traditional assets and crypto-native assets. Adams also spoke about the current market backdrop, saying builders still have to keep moving even in a bear market. He compared the environment to Uniswap’s early days, when few people believed crypto still had a future, and argued that this cycle still has room for adoption as existing businesses and assets continue moving online and on-chain. On Uniswap Chain, Adams said the team often has to explain how crypto works to traditional finance clients, who remain cautious and must also deal with a fragmented market structure across protocols, standards, and ecosystems. He said Uniswap’s long-term goal is to become the liquidity layer for assets on-chain worldwide, with this year’s main focus set on RWA.

Coinbase co-founder and CEO Brian Armstrong said in a post on X that Base’s earlier push around creator coins did not succeed and that the network completed a strategic shift earlier this year. He said Base is now focused on three connected priorities: trading, payments, and AI agents. Armstrong added that payments require foreign exchange trading, while AI agents are also expected to involve a large number of trading and payment use cases. At present, most of Base’s resources have been directed toward trading, making it the project’s main operating focus.

New Hampshire Governor Kelly Ayotte has signed HB 639, known as the Blockchain Basics Act, according to Decrypt. The measure gives legal protections to crypto users, miners, validators and developers in the state, and also allows the superior court to create a docket for blockchain-related disputes. State Representative Keith Ammon, the bill’s prime sponsor, said the law protects the right of individuals to control digital assets through self-custody and sets clearer legal guardrails for blockchain developers, miners, validators and fintech firms. The move adds to New Hampshire’s recent crypto policy activity. In May last year, the state passed a strategic Bitcoin reserve bill that allows the state treasurer to invest up to 5% of public funds in Bitcoin as well as precious metals including gold and silver. Still, the state’s executive council rejected a proposal last week that would have allowed Bitcoin-backed municipal bonds.

Sablier Labs said it will stop active product development and move into maintenance mode through June 2028, while keeping its existing token streams, vesting plans, and airdrops in place. The company said its smart contracts will continue running on-chain, and its official interface is expected to be open-sourced and maintained by the community. Founder Paul Razvan Berg said usage and revenue fell sharply in the first quarter of 2026. He also said some customers delayed launches because of worsening market conditions. At the same time, AI-assisted coding has made it much cheaper to replicate similar products. Based on that assessment, the team concluded that while demand still exists for on-chain token distribution and streaming payments, the market is not large enough to support the company’s continued active development efforts.

Onchain Lens said on July 14 that a whale opened a new 15x leveraged long position in Brent crude, with the position valued at nearly $2.6 million. The tracker described the trade as a momentum entry at higher prices. The same whale is also sitting on an overall loss of $2.49 million on Hyperliquid, according to the monitoring data. The update points to a sizable commodities bet from a trader already carrying substantial losses on the platform.

China’s commercial space stocks surged after the July 10 debut of Long March 10B and its recovery milestone, then reversed sharply within days, reigniting debate over how the sector is being priced. The original article argues that the violent move had less to do with the launch headline itself and more to do with market structure: limited long-only institutional ownership, fragmented positioning, and a large quant presence in A-share turnover. The piece contrasts that short-term trading dynamic with steady conviction in the primary market. It cites 89 disclosed financing events worth RMB 15.13 billion in China’s commercial space sector in the first half of 2026, with launch services taking 44% of total funding. It also lays out a multi-stage narrative for the sector over the past two years, from concept-driven speculation to policy support and then technical validation, while noting that profitability remains highly uneven across the supply chain. The article says the next test will come from rocket recovery milestones, reuse attempts, IPO progress and interim results. In that framing, Long March 10B’s success marked a major technical step for China’s commercial space industry, but not necessarily an immediate shift in how the secondary market assigns value.
