summary
Institutions rally behind Bitcoin spot ETF Jan 2024 as BlackRock-style managers push allocations; stablecoins enable cross-border remittances and real-world betting on Polymarket which is used on US national TV (Polymarket bets with stablecoins). PayPal migrates to Zana for faster payments, Coinbase’s Base layer2 grows via the Onchain Summer campaign, and dePIN and digital bonds (KfW + CashLink) move infrastructure and finance on-chain. Starbucks’ NFT loyalty collapses for low revenue and poor UX, while Ikea in Roblox, Hugo Boss loyalty NFTs, Messi’s tokenized shoe and Telegram’s blockchain experiments show mixed but tangible product rollouts.
