JTX hit new volume record today with over $20m. Yesterday was 3rd highest day at $17m. Combined for $41k in fees ($7.5m annualized) Product is young but early feedback is strong and improves every day. Give @jtx_trade a shot and let us know what you think

True value
I hate to say this but if the Chinese can fake the Chinese exclusive cards this well, pretty sure they can fake all your valuable modern English cards too

It's official @jtx_trade just made the trading experience I always wanted on Solana > every Spot asset on a clean, fast, familiar trading UI (perps soon) > smart fill & advanced order types for better onchain execution > one-click trading with full self-custody Truly a CEX killer

I just tested JTX of @jito Here's what I think of it: - no platform fee (Jupiter Ultra has 0.1%-0.5%) - limit orders no fees as well - stocks 0.1% fees - gasless swaps are missing - smart fill and TWAP very cool - UI and UX smooth like a CEX - csv/excel file to download - can create different wallets for same account - liquidity levels are missing cc: @kbeards @justinknox__ @Blockanalia

"It's always been a misperception in our industry that these large banks are going to come in and take over. What we're seeing and will continue to see is our native companies going out and taking territory from them." @kbeards on @_TalkingTokens

I’m glad to share that the future of Ctrl Wallet and the $CTRL token is secure. We’ve signed a long-term services agreement with a major fintech institution. This will allow Ctrl Wallet to continue growing in the years ahead and unlock new revenue streams. > Ctrl Wallet remains independant > Our team stays in place, focused entirely on the wallet > The $CTRL token stays live, with token economics unchanged For our community, this is an important win; It means we can shift our full focus back to what matters most: the products. Over the past five years, we’ve built Ctrl Wallet into one of the most trusted wallets in the space: > Support for more chains than any other wallet > Best-in-class UX with top ratings > Billions in assets safeguarded for hundreds of thousands of users With this new chapter, we’re focused on unlocking the next phase of growth, with a clear plan to revalue $CTRL around the new revenue streams we’re building. Thanks to everyone in the community for your patience and support throughout this process. More soon.

After nearly 5 years of building @ctrl_wallet, we’ve made the decision to explore opportunities for the company through an acquisition. As a founder, this has been one of the toughest choices I've ever had to make. Last year, we rebranded to Ctrl Wallet and launched a new extension along with mobile apps for iOS and Android, which have received incredible feedback. Today, Ctrl Wallet is the highest-rated multi-chain wallet in the Chrome Store. We’ve grown to over 650k users and support more chains than any other wallet. Our wallet remains the only product offering full gas abstraction with USDC payments, social logins, and a portfolio tracker across such a wide range of chains. While we are confident that Ctrl Wallet is the best multi-chain wallet, we believe that scaling to compete with the largest players requires serious backing and support from the right partner who can unlock new distribution channels for us. To my contacts, the community and friends in the industry: if you know of any companies or leaders who are aligned with Ctrl’s mission, we would appreciate introductions. To everyone who has supported Ctrl Wallet so far, thank you. Whether as a user, an investor, or an advocate, your trust and belief means everything.
