[KBW RECAP] Crypto House Seoul 🏠🔺 On Sept 28, 150+ builders, founders, and investors joined us at @AvaxTeam1 Korea's Crypto House, our KBW home base. Korea is rewriting its financial system onchain. So we spent the afternoon with people working through what that means for: 🔺 DeFi/DEXs 🔺 AI agent economy 🔺 Regulation and taxation Open opinions, shared freely. A look at where blockchain stands today, and where the next era is heading. Before Seoul got loud, we made room for real conversations 🧵

Measure. Capture. Distribute 🔺 Matias A. (@frostLedger) took the stage at Avalanche Summit New York to detail the economic framework underpinning the Foundation's research agenda. He addressed three central questions: how value can be measured, how it can be captured without disrupting economic activity, and how distribution can be made more efficient. Drawing a direct parallel to the fiscal multiplier concept in macroeconomics, where a dollar spent should generate more than a dollar of impact. The Foundation is examining each aspect of the agenda thoroughly and with rigour, with the aim of making meaningful, long-term changes that strengthen Avalanche.

BREAKING: Over $500M raised by Avalanche builders in the past year. When you build on Avalanche, you’re not building alone. Our network becomes your network: investors, institutions, operators, partners, and an ecosystem built to help ambitious companies raise capital & scale. Here are a few of the key raises and investments: @BuildOnIris secured $43M to scale ALVA’s onchain financial services and its Avalanche L1 for telecom operators. @GoKiteAI raised $33M across two funding rounds, with their latest round being led by PayPal Ventures. Kite is building the future of agentic payments on their Avalanche L1. @tare_io raised $13.25M to build private credit infrastructure on Avalanche, with @AvalancheFDN and Janus Henderson among the investors. @ValinorDigital raised $25M to scale its onchain credit platform, including institutional credit facilities running on Avalanche. And $400M+ across more than 30 other companies. The capital is here. The network is here. The opportunity is here. Build on Avalanche.

it's Avalanche Autumn Pass it on 🔺

Aave’s @StaniKulechov explains why Avalanche was the first expansion for @Aave V4. A public network connected to custom L1s for institutions, built for a future where more financial value moves onchain, and a really strong community.
