Crypto Lender Maple Finance Expands to Solana With Chainlink
Maple Finance, a cryptocurrency lending firm offering decentralized finance-like (DeFi) yields to institutions, has expanded into the Solana ecosystem with the help of Chainlink's Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol (CCIP).
To support the expansion, Maple's ecosystem has allocated $500,000 in incentives and coordinated over $30 million in liquidity, establishing a deep and stable foundation for lending, trading and collateral provisioning on the Solana blockchain.
There's more than $10 billion in stablecoins circulating on Solana, making it one of the most liquid ecosystems in crypto and a growing hub for institutional DeFi.
Maple's token, syrupUSDC, will be accessible on Solana-native platforms including Kamino and Orca. Robinhood-backed stablecoin consortium the Global Dollar Network (GDN) is also supporting the launch with USDG being a key supply asset into the market, according to a press release.
'Expanding to Solana unlocks a high-speed, high-capacity environment where Maple's products can reach a broader class of users — from institutions to advanced DeFi participants,' said Sid Powell, CEO and Co-Founder of Maple. 'With syrupUSDC now native to Solana, we're delivering yield, capital efficiency and liquidity to one of the largest stablecoin ecosystems in crypto.'

Markets sink amid Trump and Musk tension
Markets sink amid Trump and Musk tension originally appeared on TheStreet. On June 6, the overall cryptocurrency market cap decreased by 3.42% to $3.36 trillion, with losses concentrated in large-cap cryptocurrencies, including Ethereum (-5.4%), Solana (-8.7%), and Dogecoin (-13.3%), as per Kraken. Bitcoin remained stable, down only 1.8% to $104,002, with 24-hour trading volume at more than $41.8 billion. Altcoins across the board saw weekly losses exceeding 2%, with Cardano, XRP, and BNB all suffering notable declines. However, Bitcoin had a small gain of 0.3% over the last hour. BNB saw a 0.4% gain, while Solana had a similar hourly gain of 0.7%. Cardano saw the most significant hourly gain of 1.3% on the hourly bounce. Other cryptocurrencies, such as Dogecoin and XRP, experienced hourly bounces of 0.6% and 0.1%, respectively. The overall decline is occurring alongside broader macro and political tensions, while we observe an escalating war of words between U.S. President Donald Trump and Elon Musk. After Musk condemned Trump's $1.5 trillion "Liberation Day" spending bill for a "disgusting abomination", the former allies had a bitter exchange across social media. Musk, who has recently resigned from the Department of Government Efficiency, accused Trump of being ungrateful and claimed credit for helping the GOP win the 2024 elections. Trump dismissed the drama, telling Politico, "It's going very well, never done better", although aides set up a call to reconcile. Speaking alongside German Chancellor Friedrich Merz, he suggested that Musk's anger stemmed from losing electric vehicle (EV) subsidies, which he believes will negatively impact Tesla. The feud has already sown uncertainty in the already jittery markets over debt risks and policy uncertainty. With crypto sentiment already teetering, analysts warn that U.S. political instability could encourage further outflows from tokens such as DOGE and ADA, which are more retail-heavy.

New token soars 1,300% after Elon Musk tells America to 'Kill the Bill'
New token soars 1,300% after Elon Musk tells America to 'Kill the Bill' originally appeared on TheStreet. In a whirlwind of politics, pop culture, and crypto chaos, a new Solana-based memecoin called Kill The Bill (KILLBILL) has exploded more than 1,300% within 24 hours — all after Elon Musk blasted President Donald Trump's latest federal spending proposal, calling it the 'Debt Slavery Bill.' Launched less than 16 hours ago on Solana's memecoin launchpad PumpSwap, KILLBILL is a clear reference to Quentin Tarantino's cult classic Kill Bill. As of now, the token is priced at $0.00009575 and has already seen $8.68 million in trading volume with over 81,000 transactions, according to GeckoTerminal. The surge appears to be driven by Musk's viral opposition to the 1,100-page 'One Big Beautiful Bill,' which passed the House on May 22. The bill is set to raise the national debt ceiling by potentially over $2.4 trillion, piling on top of the existing $36 trillion debt load. 'If this bill is passed, it will bankrupt the country,' Musk warned earlier this week. On Wednesday, he posted to his 180 million X followers: 'Call your Senator. Call your Congressman. Bankrupting America is NOT ok! KILL the BILL.' Shortly after, Bitwise's Jeff Parks responded to the post with a photoshopped Kill Bill movie poster — but with Musk's face swapped in, helping fuel the memecoin frenzy. As of this writing, KILLBILL has 4,325 holders and net buys of over $57,000 — numbers that suggest coordinated retail enthusiasm rather than organic utility. While there's no indication that Musk is associated with the token, that hasn't stopped opportunists from piggybacking on the attention. Despite the hype, there's zero evidence Musk is connected to the KILLBILL token — and traders should be aware that memecoins built around political moments have often ended in rug pulls or sudden collapses. The speed and anonymity of Solana memecoin launches have made them both alluring and risky. As always, traders should proceed with caution.

To us, it was a pure signal that people are starting to see what Stacks has been building all along: a future where Bitcoin isn't just held, but used for apps, defi, and real ownership.' - Rena Shah, COO of Stacks. Set against the backdrop of the Sphere, the evening brought together innovators, investors, and community leaders for a night dedicated to celebrating Bitcoin's growth and the people driving its future. The program opened with a welcome reception, followed by gourmet hors d'oeuvres and vibrant conversations. A keynote and honors segment recognized those making meaningful strides in Bitcoin adoption and development. Guests were then invited to explore a premium tequila tasting experience curated by Reach, and indulge in interactive gourmet chef stations. 'Our team has been fortunate to be part of the Bitcoin community since 2016, so we're thrilled to see all the progress on display almost 10 years later at Bitcoin 2025.

Actor and comedian T.J. Miller was also a speaker at the event: 'The bitcoin conference 2025 was incredible for so many reasons. It was such a joyful journey to be with so many like-minded people (all of whom have been laughed at) who share the same values: freedom, community, hope, and getting rich- the highpoint was the BitGala. I bought incredibly large expensive shoes for the specific purpose of showing up to the gala non-verbally saying bitcoin destroying Fiat, well that's big shoes to fill… and we'll fill 'em.
