What to know:
- Luminite, a seedless wallet aimed at making DeFi accessible to XRP holders by adding smart contract functionality, is launching on Flare.

Luminite, a non-custodial, seedless wallet designed to make decentralized finance (DeFi) accessible to XRP holders, launched on the Flare Network as part of a broader push to give smart contract functionality to assets that historically lacked it.
“By removing complex barriers of entry, we’re enabling anyone - from first-time users to seasoned crypto holders - to access the full power of the Flare ecosystem,” the Luminite team said in a statement.

“This is about making DeFi approachable, not just for the crypto-native, but for the next wave of users discovering blockchain through real utility,” the team said.
Built with Turnkey’s embedded infrastructure, Luminite skips seed phrases in favor of passkeys, biometrics or email sign-ins.
Users can acquire FLR and XRP via integrated fiat on-ramps like Topper, then engage directly with DeFi protocols on Flare, including services like staking, swaps, minting synthetic FXRP, and bridging assets via Stargate.
For XRP holders, it means that within the next few months it will be possible to wrap the token into FXRP via Flare’s FAssets protocol and deployed across staking and liquidity products. Once the feature is released, will give the token holders a reason to remain within the Flare ecosystem instead of bridging elsewhere.
Whether this becomes sticky will depend on what comes next: sustained TVL growth, liquidity incentives, and whether developers start building tools that integrate XRP in ways that Ethereum and Solana users already expect.

Bitcoin could fall to $10,000 as U.S. recession risk builds, Mike McGlone Says
McGlone links bitcoin’s downturn to record U.S. market cap-to-GDP levels, low equity volatility and rising gold prices, warning of potential contagion into stocks.
Wat u moet weten:
- Bloomberg Intelligence strategist Mike McGlone warns that collapsing crypto prices and a potential bitcoin slide toward $10,000 could signal mounting financial stress and foreshadow a U.S. recession.
- McGlone argues the post-2008 "buy the dip" era may be ending as crypto weakens, stock market valuations sit near century highs relative to GDP, and equity volatility remains unusually low.
- Market analyst Jason Fernandes counters that a drop to $10,000 bitcoin would likely require a severe systemic shock and recession, calling such an outcome a low-probability tail risk compared with a milder reset or consolidation.
