RT @52kskew: $BTC Looks like we got out first bite off new headlines with limit chasing on both spot & perps leading price higher importa…

A little update on what we've been working on. Super excited to announce that we recently closed a strategic pre-seed round to double down on a problem that I genuinely think is one of the most exciting opportunities ahead. We're building the rails for structured yield today, with the long-term vision going further to support an open finance stack for even AI agents and democratize opportunities for both institutional and retail users globally. More in the article below! 最近我们 @enhanced_defi 刚完成了一轮战略融资。这篇文章分享一下 Enhanced 主要做什么，和为什么我们认为现在在这大家都认为加密行情不好的时候，反而是做这件事的时机最好的时候。 链上资产随着 RWA 的增发只会越来越多。利用期权来制造收益的策略在这借贷收益低迷的时候需求也更强。更多的在文章里。

I don't think you understand how insufferable I will be on this downtrend I'm fine with entire CT going full personal attacks on me, nothing new, but death wishes/threats, dox attempts and false allegations [again] cross the line even some "friends" & followers joined in on the "dunking" so they can get that sweet engagement it's going to be glorious.

A little career announcement today: I recently wrapped up my time at Aptos after 2 years. 🙏Forever grateful to the team for the opportunity and learned a lot across roles in devrel, dev growth, to hands-on supporting founders in the ecosystem. As for what's next, I'm going to work on a problem I (and a few frens) am really excited about. As the space matures and more assets come on-chain, we think there's a massive opportunity to innovate and make all spot assets (not just stables) more productive by bringing battle-tested TradFi strategies leveraging derivatives. We're still mostly stuck at just the 'hold & moon' mindset for spot alts and other on-chain assets. Why? Because the infra to put them to work is limited. Yes, there's liquid staking (tbh that's just more emissions, but oke). Or LP and get rekt by IL. Somewhere along the way we just accepted that this is the best we can do. But that's not true. There are strategies in TradFi that are readily available for investors to make their assets more productive. Real yield. Manageable risks. In crypto, these are usually reserved only for the large players. Or available just for BTC & ETH. That's because the infra isn't quite there (yet). It will be. And no, the approach will be different from stables Vaults and different from previous DOV (option vaults) approaches. Will write more about it pls follow @enhanced_defi ! Job's just started.

🚀 Today, @moshaikh @neilhar @alextang & I launch Maximum Frequency Ventures (MFV) - a $50M operator-led crypto company-creation engine and venture fund. This is personal for me. I’ve spent my career moving between the discipline of institutions and the chaos of startups, and every stop along the way taught me lessons I wish more founders had access to.

Aptos accelerates money movement. Backpack accelerates adoption. Aptos on @Backpack Wallet is here, with day one support from the Aptos ecosystem with @PanoraExchange, @EchelonMarket, and @hyperion_xyz for seamless & borderless money movement. Welcome to a new era of finance 🎒

Borrow fees are gone. Echelon has fully removed origination fees — making borrowing simpler and more capital-efficient across all markets. It’s a structural shift designed to benefit both users and the broader ecosystem.

We’re excited to announce that Ekiden is now live on the @Aptos testnet. Our testnet launch marks a key step toward mainnet, as we validate platform stability, performance, and security in a real-world environment. Here’s how to get involved. 🧵👇

Congrats on the raise! It’s a testament to the quality of products Panora has built.

Not-so-honest review of @avantisfi after 2 weeks of degen trading 👇 I didn’t expect to be addicted to this. But 2 weeks in, I’m still trading on Avantis, and honestly, this might become the "on-chain Robinhood" Here’s why: This thing is intuitive for traders and degens Zero-Fee-Perpetuals (ZFP) offers: - up to 500x leverage - zero fees if you lose, only profit share when you win Last week's upgrades also made a big leap forward: - Base Flashblock integration = 200ms blocktime - Trading feels much better and faster now - Taker fees slashed 25% - Borrow fees dropped 50% - Liquidity deepening, spreads tightening for alts And ZFP now works on $XRP, $HYPE, even USDJPY (up to 1000x lol) But what flipped my switch wasn’t just the UX. I spoke to the team and their vision is way bigger than “yet another DEX” They want to become the "on-chain Robinhood" Over the next 2 months, they’re launching RWA synthetic perps, basically stocks with ZFP: - Zero premium - Zero daily holding fees - Perfect for day traders If that hits, Avantis won’t just be the #1 perp DEX on BASE. And most traders still aren’t paying attention. Anyway, I’ve been trading here for 2 weeks and I’m hooked. Will be sharing more soon
