What is Rocket Pool (RPL)?

What is Rocket Pool (RPL)?

Rocket Pool is a decentralized Ethereum staking protocol that lowers the barrier to entry for participating in network validation. It allows users to stake any amount of ETH by minting rETH, a liquid staking token that accumulates rewards. For node operators, it reduces the capital requirement from 32 ETH to 8 ETH, plus RPL token collateral. The RPL token serves as governance and insurance within the ecosystem. This model promotes a more decentralized and accessible staking landscape compared to larger, centralized competitors.

Why crypto infrastructure matters more than hype

Why crypto infrastructure matters more than hype

While market speculation and hype dominate headlines, the long-term value of crypto lies in its underlying infrastructure: the blockchains, Layer 2 scaling solutions, decentralized storage, and oracle networks. This foundational technology enables practical applications like DeFi, NFTs, and DAOs, reshaping finance, ownership, and global coordination. Unlike transient hype cycles, infrastructure development provides lasting utility, censorship resistance, and a new paradigm for user-owned digital economies. Its continuous, quiet evolution, regardless of price volatility, is what will ultimately drive mainstream adoption and create sustainable value.

Will there be a bull run in 2025?
Crypto10 min

Will there be a bull run in 2025?

The potential for a 2025 crypto bull run is supported by accelerating institutional adoption via Bitcoin ETFs, favourable macroeconomic conditions, and the maturation of key sectors like DeFi and real-world asset (RWA) tokenization. While historical cycles and current indicators like growing stablecoin liquidity are positive, risks remain, including regulatory uncertainty and macroeconomic shocks. Success requires a focus on long-term, diversified strategies rather than short-term speculation.

Co-branded cards: the what, why, how

Co-branded cards are payment cards issued by a financial institution in partnership with a consumer brand, featuring the brand's identity. They drive business growth by enhancing customer loyalty through integrated rewards, creating new revenue streams via interchange fees, and providing valuable spending insights. These cards can be open-loop or closed-loop. Successful implementation requires a strategic partnership between the brand, a financial institution, and a payment network, balancing attractive perks with potential drawbacks like higher interest rates.
