Ronin Network has fully integrated Rocket Pool, allowing users to stake ETH without locking assets by converting it to rETH, a yield-bearing token that grows in value over time. Users can also participate in Katana v3 liquidity pools to earn additional rewards. This development follows Ronin’s transition to an open ecosystem (Open Ronin) and its migration to Chainlink’s CCIP for secure cross-chain transactions. Additionally, Ronin’s NFT marketplace is now live on OpenSea, and its gaming ecosystem is thriving, as seen with the success of Ragnarok Landverse Genesis. RON’s price has also shown positive momentum, reflecting growing interest in the network.

Base’s official X account posted content on Zora, an onchain social protocol, which automatically minted as a tradable token. Despite disclaimers, traders drove its valuation to $13 million before it crashed to $1 million within hours. The token later recovered slightly, but allegations surfaced about supply concentration and potential market manipulation by top holders. Base and Zora emphasized their experimental approach to onchain content, while Jesse Pollak, Base’s founder, differentiated ‘content coins’ from traditional meme coins. Zora co-founder Jacob Horne’s essay framed such tokens as a solution to monetizing freely accessible internet content. The episode underscores both the innovation and risks in decentralized social finance.
