Industry News
U.S. banking sector questions White House report on stablecoin yields
Odaily Planet Daily news: The U.S. banking sector has questioned the White House's report on stablecoin yields, believing the report's conclusions are based on erroneous issues. The White House Council of Economic Advisers research report states that banning stablecoin yields has a negligible impact on bank loans, only increasing loans by about $2.1 billion. American Bankers Association Chief Economist Sayee Srinivasan and Vice President Yikai Wang stated that the core policy concern is whether allowing stablecoins to generate yields would prompt deposit outflows, especially from community banks to large institutions, thus increasing financing costs and reducing local lending. The American Bankers Association admits that the pursuit of high-yielding stablecoins will incentivize households and businesses to move funds out of banks. Currently, the cryptocurrency and banking sectors are negotiating terms of Senate bills, with prohibiting interest payments on stablecoins being a key point of contention.

Tether launches self-custody digital wallet tether.wallet
Odaily Planet Daily news: Stablecoin issuer Tether announced the launch of a self-custody digital wallet tether.wallet, which offers access to assets that are truly important to most people: the U.S. Dollar (USD₮ and USA₮), gold (XAU₮), and Bitcoin. These currencies are supported across multiple networks and aim to eliminate the complex technologies that have historically restricted the broad application of digital assets. Users can send funds using simple, readable identifiers (such as name@tether.me) without having to enter lengthy and error-prone wallet addresses, thereby reducing the risk of irreversible mistakes. There is also no need for users to hold separate network tokens or Gas tokens; transaction fees are paid directly as a form of the transferred asset, eliminating one of the most persistent frictions in blockchain systems.

Hyperliquid refused investment terms from a certain VC at a $10 billion valuation in early 2024
Odaily Planet Daily news: Hyperliquid founder Jeff Yan and his team members recently conducted a special interview with Colossos magazine.
In the interview, Jeff revealed that in January 2024, he met with investors and set the condition of "only considering investment terms at a valuation of $1 billion." When an investor accepted this valuation, Jeff spent a weekend thinking it over but ultimately decided to refuse.
Including another co-founder of Hyperliquid, iliensinc (who manages funding), and other team members who found it hard to accept at the time, iliensinc had already communicated for two weeks with the investors. When Jeff called that fund, they also could not believe it, thinking he had just accepted the terms of another institution.
Jeff responded with an analogy: "Hyperliquid is not a company; it is a protocol, and 'neutrality' has been the core concept from the beginning. If Bitcoin had undergone venture capital financing back then, it would not be the Bitcoin it is today, and its entire value proposition would have been destroyed."

Nava completes $8.3 million seed round financing, Polychain and Archetype co-lead

It is reported that the company's method to prevent AI agent misconduct is to create a custodial service that holds funds until the agent proposes a transaction. Once the agent proposes a transaction, Nava uses a verification framework to determine if the transaction result aligns with the user's intent. If the transaction passes verification, then it is executed; otherwise, the funds remain in the custodial account, and any reasons for accepting or rejecting a transaction are recorded on the blockchain, creating a referenceable public decision ledger.

People * Voice
Odaily Planet Daily news: Hyperliquid founder Jeff Yan and his team members recently conducted a special interview with Colossos magazine. In the interview, Jeff mentioned his career before founding Hyperliquid in 2022.
Before founding Hyperliquid, Jeff almost ran one of the largest anonymous trading teams in the cryptocurrency industry at the time — Chameleon Trading, which was named after his gaming nickname during school.
Jeff started with $10,000 in savings, achieving thousands of percentage points of annual growth over two and a half years; by the age of 27, he had already achieved financial freedom.
By 2022, the Chameleon Trading team had expanded to 6 people. However, Jeff felt that the crypto industry had made almost no substantial progress beyond Bitcoin and Ethereum; the two largest exchanges in the market (Binance and Coinbase) were still centralized, and the vision originally envisioned by Satoshi Nakamoto for Bitcoin was being buried by the industry.
As a result, influenced by this industry instability and the collapse of FTX, Jeff terminated Chameleon Trading and set out to build a decentralized exchange, Hyperliquid.
