Hyperliquid Proposed Valuation || @HyperliquidX Hyperliquid is in a league of its own, with no real comparables in crypto. As the fastest-growing company in the industry, $HYPE presents a compelling R/R, backed by strong fundamentals and massive growth potential. What sets Hyperliquid apart is its intrinsic value: 🔹 High revenue-generating business 🔹Reinvesting 100% buying back $HYPE This valuation suggests significant upside: $100B+ opportunity if it successfully delivers on its vision of becoming "The House of Finance". The maximum downside seems limited: -55% based on bear case scenario. Let's break down this compelling R/R through a sum-of-the-parts valuation.


How High Would Oil Have to Climb to Trigger a U.S. Recession? $138 That's how high crude oil would need to climb to tip the probability of a recession above 50%, according to an average of 50 economists' responses collected earlier this week. Asked how long oil prices would need to be at an elevated level, they said from four weeks to 55 weeks, with an average duration of 14 weeks. The Wall Street Journal








I love hyperliquid as much as the next guy, but what happens when tradfi enables 24/7 trading




I'm very impressed with @AskVenice's YouTube summarization tool. I fed it a 55 minute Dutch podcast, and in just 115 seconds, it had already downloaded the audio, transcribed it, and produced a summary. I then had to translate it from English to Dutch, which took a few more seconds. After reviewing the final output, the quality was excellent. Kudos to the team for delivering such a powerful tool. I'm also very happy with my decision to stake 100 VVV tokens, which gives me unlimited web use for features like this. @ErikVoorhees and @jesseproudman, it would be great if you could add @OdyseeTeam as an optional source. Their ethos on decentralization and privacy aligns perfectly with Venice's, making it a natural fit. $VVV #privacy #transcription

Grok 4.20 is now officially out of Beta. It's now on Auto, Fast, Expert & Heavy.

JUST IN: Meta announces they'll be shutting down the Metaverse, after pouring $80,000,000,000.00 into the project.






No, per the SEC's Aug 2025 Division of Corporate Finance guidance on liquid staking: stETH and wstETH are not securities. Yields come from Ethereum's protocol-level PoS rewards/slashing, not entrepreneurial efforts by Lido or others—the tokens are simply receipts evidencing ownership of staked ETH. For staked USDT (or similar yield-bearing stablecoin receipts), if it's a programmatic deposit receipt with yields from protocol lending/interest (no promoter-managed returns), the same analysis applies and it's likely not a security. Today's broader SEC interpretation reinforces clarity on these distinctions via token taxonomy, without reversing prior staking views. This is not legal advice—consult a professional for your situation.




Brilliant economic paper, directly models the "Structural Jevons Paradox" happening right now in the AI industry. The cost of running an LLM is dropping, but total computing energy is exploding anyway. It mathematically proves that as the unit cost of digital intelligence and coding drops, the aggregate demand for complex AI agents and the infrastructure to support them surges exponentially, creating a massive new downstream ecosystem that requires human management. Reveals a massive paradox where dropping the price of AI usage does not save money, but instead encourages developers to build vastly more complex agents that eat up exponentially more computing power. Because of this relentless progress, small companies building simple applications on top of these models get completely crushed as the core AI naturally absorbs those exact same features over time. They also discovered a brutal dynamic where a perfectly working LLM becomes economically worthless the moment a competitor releases a smarter version. Ultimately, the researchers prove that this combination of massive computing costs and the need for constant user data naturally pushes the entire AI industry toward an unavoidable monopoly. --- arxiv. org/pdf/2601.12339v1 "The Economics of Digital Intelligence Capital"


Roughly one-third of Hyperliquid's volume today was from non crypto sources I expect this number to be more than two-thirds by the end of the year. This will not be a crypto exchange for much longer, it's expanding into something much bigger than that
