SpaceX is planning to IPO at a valuation of $1.5 trillion, potentially making it the largest IPO in history.

On December 11th at the Solana Breakpoint Conference, Sunrise CEO Saeed noted that the first asset listed by Sunrise on Solana is the MON token. This non-native token—originally not issued on Solana—was integrated into the Solana ecosystem on day one, even its first minute of launch. It competes not only with all other on-chain exchanges but also major centralized exchanges (CEXs). Within 24 hours of listing, MON’s trading volume outpaced well-known platforms including Hyperliquid, KuCoin, Kraken, Coinbase, Bybit, Bitget, and Gate—some of which boast user bases exceeding 1 million. Most impressively, it offers tighter spreads than these established CEXs, higher trading volume, and all this is backed by Solana’s native ecosystem user base.

On December 11, He Yi responded to a question about "how to become a Binance content editor" on X, saying: "It’s a high-risk profession. One person has been arrested, another is under investigation, and the individual who added me on WeChat is being pursued. There’s no need to dig for angles in official announcements or focus on content editors. I won’t engage with memes of this kind going forward."

Circle co-founder and CEO Jeremy Allaire announced at the Solana Breakpoint Conference on December 11 that the company will launch Circle Gateway on Solana, enabling instant cross-chain access to a unified USDC balance.

On December 11, Binance Wallet announced that the Talus Network (US) token airdrop will resume distribution at 8:20 PM.

December 11 — CoinDesk reports that Keel, an on-chain capital allocation platform built for the Solana Sky ecosystem, has launched a $500 million investment initiative called the “Tokenization Regatta.” The program will attract asset tokenizers via a competitive process: selected projects will receive direct funding and support to issue risk-weighted assets (RWAs) — including debt, credit, and funds — on Solana. More than 40 institutions have already signaled interest in participating. The first application phase opens Thursday, with two pathways: one for issuers planning to deploy by early 2026, and another for those still building infrastructure. Keel is an independent organization within the Sky ecosystem (formerly MakerDAO), backed by Sky’s $6 billion decentralized stablecoin USDS. Its mission is to invest in income-generating assets and return proceeds to Sky and USDS token holders.

At the Solana Breakpoint Conference on December 11th, Max Resnick—Chief Economist of Anza, Solana’s research and development arm—stated: "We hit 100,000 TPS in May. Not on a testnet, not in a whitepaper, but on the mainnet. Market structure is also evolving in real time: proprietary market makers are narrowing spreads, SOL-USD trading volume is now three times that of Binance, and fierce competition is ramping up. The order book is tightening and deepening daily."
