RaaS #470: Uniswap Foundation Eyes Fee Switch!

LayerZero Offers Stargate Buyout, PumpFun VS Bonk Competition, and Moar!

KDA3 isn’t chasing clout deals; they’re shipping Berachain apps that non-CT folks will actually touch. First up: Canada Basketball’s Unify+, blending rewards, schedules, and merch into a product built to be used.

Uniswap Foundation plans to wrap its DAO in Wyoming’s DUNA framework, forming “DUNI” to handle contracts, compliance, and taxes. The $16.5M UNI proposal covers up to $10M in back taxes and legal costs, paving the way for a protocol fee switch without changing governance.

Vitalik pushes back on economic definitions of AGI, arguing they’re moving targets. By 1800s standards, most jobs are already “automated.” Instead, he frames AGI as the point where automation stops reliably creating new jobs and humans lose their dominance. His benchmark: if humanity vanished, AI in robot bodies could sustain civilization.

In Nov 2018, just days before his wedding, Polygon’s Sandeep Nailwal flew to Shanghai to pitch, securing a $600k BTC commitment, only to see BTC halve, the deal collapse, and Polygon’s runway shrank to 3 months. He borrowed $3k for his honeymoon.

Pumpfun’s new “Group Coins” lets teams co-launch tokens with multi-sig safety and shared fees, aiming to recover ground from BONKBot’s community-first model. Early gains show promise, but BONK still leads.

Cohort 4 of the Token Transparency Framework adds EtherFi, Fluid, Marinade, WalletConnect, and Horizen, scoring 37–39/40 with deep disclosures on MM deals, token allocations, sales history, and governance structures.

Steer clear of legal, CT leads.

Intern is pivoting into a full-time “threadoor” by breaking down internet culture arcs. Latest example: Hubs Life, the creator who romanticized corporate 9–5 life, quit his job in secret, rented a fake office to maintain the brand, got exposed, and responded by paywalling answers behind TikTok donations.

Facet is now the first general-purpose Stage 2 Ethereum rollup, with no multisigs or canonical bridge. It uses its native gas token FCT, removing protocol-level bridge risk and pushing for an “Unstoppable Rollup” standard with zero admin control.

Boom, built on Rise Chain, is an on-chain CLOB with 3ms latency, 100K TPS, and a unified liquidity layer for perps, spot, and lending. Aims to end fragmented books and slow execution while staying fully composable for builders.

Top Gainers: TOKABU, LIORA, U, RIZE, GAI.

Heritage Distilling (CASK) will become the first public company to hold IP tokens as a primary reserve asset, launching a $340M treasury strategy backed by a16z crypto, Polychain, and others, buying IP at a 47% discount via a $220M PIPE deal.

Strategy’s $BTC stack is sitting on $30B in unrealized gains, about 43x what Michael Burry made shorting the 2008 housing market.

LayerZero’s $138M plan to merge Stargate into ZRO has met backlash from STG holders, who call it undervalued, dilutive, and against DAO guidelines. Critics say it shifts fee revenue to ZRO without a fair benefit.
