HyperLend is quietly becoming one of the more attractive USDC lending markets in DeFi: - Latest @hyperlendx market weighted supply APY: ~7% - Industry average: ~3% Capital flows to yield, and HyperLend is now leading the pack. hyperliquid.

ZEC @ $300 was a very obvious buy opportunity if you have a shred of critical thinking and don't blindly tail your favorite KOL telling you to dump all your ZEC because of a bug that was fixed...

They got a red headline on Bloomberg *BLOCKWORKS BUYS MESSARI, COMBINING CRYPTO DATA PLATFORMS Congrats to both teams!

Messari has been acquired by Blockworks. This brings together the two largest crypto data and market intelligence platforms to build the trusted information infrastructure onchain markets need as they mature.

I joined Messari nearly 4 years ago. Spent years competing in the rivalry between crypto's data and research giants. The Messari Mafia spreads wider than most know. I'm proud to be a part of it. Always had respect for @Blockworks. Best of luck to both teams as they become one!

It was an absolute honor to work at Messari for 2 years. One of the densest talent hubs in crypto at it's peak, the Messari Mafia speaks for itself. Bullish on the future of research data, Blockworks now has all the tools they need to crush it.

Step by step, Blockworks is becoming one of these industry’s giants. Not just for data and market intelligence, but for trust. Impressive to see them acquire Messari, a company valued in the hundreds of millions just a few years ago. This further cements their position as the market leader across their categories, and very much deservedly so. Proud to call these chads a portfolio company and to work with a team as talented and ambitious as @JasonYanowitz and @MikeIppolito_. Time to raise the standards of this space to meet what the next 10 years of institutional adoption will demand.

There is a major consolidation happening in the crypto space. It's never been harder to start a new crypto company. Venture dollars into early stages has been dwindling. The established players with PMF continue to gain resources and market share. And yet this is a sign of the industry maturing. The best chance crypto has to make an impact is to pile its resources into the things that are already working. Blockworks has proven itself to be the category leader in crypto media and now data/analytics. Congrats to @JasonYanowitz and the team!

Tokens will change capital formation forever, and Blockworks will remain on the front lines Expect a new era of product velocity as we continue to build a platform for businesses to earn trust and provide investors with the data they need to underwrite the asset class

Blockworks is a giant in the making.

Having had the honor & privilege of working at both of these OG legends — this is an incredible moment for crypto. You now have the very best data, research, and market intelligence products together under one roof, combined with the most trusted & wide-reaching distribution networks in the entire industry. This is a win for crypto adoption. Accelerate 🚀

1/ Today we announce our acquisition of Messari. Our mission is to bring trust and transparency to onchain markets. This acquisition accelerates that mission.

Extremely excited to announce our acquisition of Messari! Blockworks stands on the shoulders of giants, and we wouldn't be here without battling it out in the trenches with our frenemies for the past 7 years. Iron sharpens iron, as they say. Onwards and upwards, but jobs not finished.
