By John Morris, updated August 17, 2026 A figure has been passing around the crypto press this year: crypto casino activity supposedly makes up roughly 17 percent of all iGaming bets placed in 2026. It is a clean, quotable number, the kind that lands in a headline and then gets repeated until it feels like a settled fact. Anyone who has watched a token’s market cap get quoted three different ways in one afternoon should feel a familiar itch. Where did the 17 percent come from, what does it actually count, and would it survive a second look? This audience…

Tokenization is beginning to face a harder test than attracting assets and investors: proving the infrastructure and economics can work at scale.A series of developments over the past week illustrates that transition. Securitize reported record tokenized assets but weaker tokenization revenue, tokenized equities surpassed 1.3 million holders, and JPMorgan disclosed larger positions in Bitcoin and Ether exchange-traded funds.Together, the developments suggest digital assets are moving deeper into mainstream financial markets.

Not every 46-year-old com­e­dy still gets laughs, but Air­plane! seems only to get fun­nier with the decades. Some view­ers too young to have caught it in its the­atri­cal release even take the Ben­jamin­ian view of it as the kind of great work that cre­ates its own genre: the rapid-fire dead­pan joke machine, we could call it. But as the InCin­e­mat­ic video essay above reminds us, Air­plane! belongs, at its core, to that ven­er­a­ble comedic form of the par­o­dy. The key lies in its tit­u­lar excla­ma­tion point shared with Zero Hour!, a con­ven­tion­al Para­mount dis­as­ter movie from 1957 also about a dis­graced fight­er pilot forced…

Even if the plot of Coyote vs Acme didn’t feel like an uncanny reflection of its own making, it would be hard not to mention the making of the film itself, a near-victim of Warner Bros’ habit of creating and then casting off feature films for tax write-offs. But Dave Green’s courtroom-drama parody does position one of the Looney Tunes against a company whose interest in cartoons only goes as far as its profit margin.The metatext of Coyote vs Acme doesn’t quite overshadow everything, even if its plot strongly reminds you of the corporate apathy that landed the film in distribution purgatory…
