Following continued monitoring of the ongoing Binance situation, borrowing has resumed in the SOL/BTC Market.
While borrows were paused, the team monitored onchain activity to assess any risk to the market or users. We found no immediate risk, and Kamino remained unaffected throughout.
Deposits, withdrawals and repayments continued to process normally.

that's exactly why I'm so bullish on Kamino.
sure, tokenizing stocks is cool.
but it's actually the marketplaces, money markets and DeFi protocols that make the tokenized version of these assets superior once they are onchain.
as supply grows orders of magnitude from here, so will the platforms capturing a major share of that value chain.
and Kamino is positioned right at the center of it.
Backpack x Kamino is a match made in heaven, and likely just the first of many.
Introducing the Backpack Market on Kamino.
Kamino is expanding loans backed by tokenized equity on Solana with @Backpack Securities, bringing 1:1-backed, redeemable tokenized U.S.-listed equities directly into onchain credit markets.
I'm excited to be speaking at @solana Breakpoint in London next month.
I'll be sharing more detail on our vision and what we're building at Kamino. We will cover the gamut; tradfi assuets and customers coming on chain making yield and liquidity easier to access, fixed-rate onchain credit markets, and more.
Tokenized assets will unlock a multi-trillion dollar credit market that couldnt exist without it. New collateral offers new lending origination. @kamino we're building the infrastrucutre to make it all happen right here on @solana
More Breakpoint 2026 speakers are confirmed.
Lending, trading cards, robotics, poker and tokenized bank assets, all running on Solana and all on the Breakpoint stage in London this November.
ALT Breakpoint 2026 speakers announced: Jeff Platt, Michael Weisz, Todd McDonald, George Ruhana, Jack Pearson, Tuom Holmberg, Lily Liu, Michael Coates. 15-17 November 2026, solana.com/breakpoint
All markets will be onchain. First slowly, then it will feel like it’s happening all at once. The efficiency, costs of capital, distribution and growth, and net new opportunities to deploy risk capital w liquidity are pulling all types of use cases on chain. @kamino @solana are ushering in a wave of new assets and liquidity onchain.

Excited to work with Payward to forge a path for onchain derivatives built on Hyperliquid's infrastructure. Kraken is one of the most trusted and respected exchanges in crypto. They are also true believers in the technology and crypto ethos. We're honored that they are building on Hyperliquid to bring the next evolution of perpetual markets to the United States.
Go Kamino Go!
Borrower's want more clarity on their cost of capital.
Its important to curators, loopers, and anyone who wants to optimize a trade that they have clarity of cost of capital and return on capital.
We will continue to innovate on the various use cases for borrowers and lenders.
Big thank you to @Figure @mcagney @HastraFi for being great partners. We will continue to grow together!
The GENIUS Act and the OCC’s final rule are a genuine step forward for American leadership in digital assets.
Clear standards for payment stablecoins strengthen the dollar rails that institutions need to participate in on-chain markets. That foundation makes it more practical to build the credit, liquidity, and distribution layer for tokenized assets: the work we’ve been focused on at Kamino.
We will continue to help build and shape the future of capital markets in the U.S.
The GENIUS Act marks a watershed moment in American finance, further cementing the United States as the crypto capital of the world. Just as President Abraham Lincoln’s National Currency Act of 1863 established a national framework for bank-issued currency, the GENIUS Act establishes a federal framework for payment stablecoins in the digital age.
The @USOCC's final rule carries that landmark legislation forward, providing a clear, practical foundation for private-sector innovation, competition, and American leadership in digital assets.
Tradfi moving aggressively to tap onchain talent. Financial services will look radically different in several years. Assets will be readily accessible and liquidity and credit will drive an expansion of wallet share by 50%.

Warm welcome to Matt and Blake!
Excited for both of these rockstars to join Kamino!
Matt and I have worked together for over a decade and excited for him to lead institutional solutions as we scale.
Blake Messer is a rockstar technologist who dove deeply into AI over the past few years. Blake pitched me on a new startup (pretty awesome concept) but I felt he had greater potential in building with us. He agreed :-)
Blake is spearheading operational excellence agentically by using agents across various functions like Sales, BD, Operations, IR, CEOs office, and daily activities to accelerate growth, maintain efficiency, and ensure things don’t drop. In his short time here, he’s had a lot of impact already! Maybe he’ll share some of the initiatives he’s implemented soon.
Go Kamino Go!
We’re building the team and adding roles weekly. If you’re a self starter, aggressive and determined in your work, curious and excited about onchain finance, please look at the roles. We’re redefining an industry and will need the best and brightest to do it.
Massive growth and development opportunity!

Other than Tesla’s Roadster, @kamino is the most exciting I can think of building.
Elon is 1 of 1.
Congrats guys!
Proud to share that Fission has raised a $10M Series A, led by @PanteraCapital.
I’ve spent years working on tokenization. The part i’m most excited about now is that investors can actually do with these assets once they’re onchain.
Thank you to the investors and partners backing our mission.

Let’s bring it to @kamino for broader distribution and credit/leverage !
Tokenizing the ARK Venture Fund puts our conviction in the evolution, if not revolution, of capital markets into practice. Based on our research, tokenization has the potential to reshape fundamentally the way that investors access and participate in both private and public financial markets. The ARK Venture Fund being available on chain is a natural extension of our mission to democratize access to technologically enabled disruptive innovation. Because it has built the regulated infrastructure to help make that vision a reality, we are excited to partner with @Securitize in taking this important step forward.

Thanks @JasonYanowitz and @theempirepod. You’re a great host.
Why I joined @kamino (spoiler, amazing team), where onchain finance goes next, the teammates were looking to build with, and touched on how KMNO fits, we covered a lot.
Listen to the conversation. If this is the future you want to build, come build with us.
More on KMNO and key roles soon.
👏👏👏👏
