PANews reported on November 11th that blockchain analytics platform Bubblemaps disclosed on its X platform that a wallet purchased 20% of the GIGGLE token during its initial public offering (IPO), but sold it off before Changpeng Zhao (Zhao's founder) tweeted about it, missing out on $30 million in potential profits. In 2024, Changpeng Zhao launched the non-profit education platform Giggle Academy; in September 2025, the GIGGLE token was launched as a community fundraising project to raise funds. After Zhao's tweet of support, the token's market capitalization quickly exceeded $200 million. Before Zhao's tweet, several "early bird buyers" had already targeted GIGGLE. Analysis of the first minute of trading data after the IPO revealed that nine addresses were linked, each purchasing 20,000 tokens, totaling 180,000 GIGGLE (worth $28 million at current prices). However, this "early bird buyer" sold off most of the tokens that same day, making a profit of $170,000. It's worth noting that in the same block, another 240,000 GIGGLE tokens were snapped up (accounting for 24% of the total token supply), and no on-chain connection has been found between them and the first "early bird" token.PANews reported on November 11th that blockchain analytics platform Bubblemaps disclosed on its X platform that a wallet purchased 20% of the GIGGLE token during its initial public offering (IPO), but sold it off before Changpeng Zhao (Zhao's founder) tweeted about it, missing out on $30 million in potential profits.

Tokenized Assets Shift From Wrappers to Building Blocks in DeFi

The post Tokenized Assets Shift From Wrappers to Building Blocks in DeFi appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. RWAs are rapidly moving on-chain, unlocking new opportunities for investors and DeFi protocols, according to a new report from Dune and RWAxyz. Tokenized real-world assets (RWAs) are moving beyond digital versions of traditional securities to become key building blocks of decentralized finance (DeFi), according to the 2025 RWA Report from Dune and RWAxyz. The report notes that Treasuries, bonds, credit, and equities are now being used in DeFi as collateral, trading instruments, and yield products. This marks tokenization’s “real breakthrough” – composability, or the ability to combine and reuse assets across different protocols. Projects are already showing how this works in practice. Asset manager Maple Finance’s syrupUSDC, for example, has grown to $2.5 billion, with more than 30% placed in DeFi apps like Spark ($570 million). Centrifuge’s new deJAAA token, a wrapper for Janus Henderson’s AAA CLO fund, is already trading on Aerodrome, Coinbase and other exchanges, with Stellar planned next. Meanwhile, Aave’s Horizon RWA Market now lets institutional users post tokenized Treasuries and CLOs as collateral. This trend underscores a bigger shift: RWAs are no longer just copies of traditional assets; instead, they are becoming core parts of on-chain finance, powering lending, liquidity, and yield, and helping to close the gap between traditional finance (TradFi) and DeFi. “RWAs have crossed the chasm from experimentation to execution,” Sid Powell, CEO of Maple Finance, says in the report. “Our growth to $3.5B AUM reflects a broader shift: traditional financial services are adopting crypto assets while institutions seek exposure to on-chain markets.” Investor demand for higher returns and more diversified options is mainly driving this growth. Tokenized Treasuries proved there is strong demand, with $7.3 billion issued by September 2025 – up 85% year-to-date. The growth was led by BlackRock, WisdomTree, Ondo, and Centrifuge’s JTRSY (Janus Henderson Anemoy Treasury Fund). Spark’s $1…
