2024 年上半年,二次收益的概念掀起市场沸腾,“再质押”一度成为席卷加密生态的核心话题。EigenLayer 崛起,Ether.fi、Renzo 等项目接连涌现,再质押代币(LRT)遍地开花。

然而,如今赛道的两大龙头项目均选择了转型:

  • Ether.fi 宣布转型为加密新型银行(neobank),计划推出现金卡及面向美国用户的质押服务;

  • Eigen Labs 宣布裁员约 25% ,将资源重组,全面聚焦新产品 EigenCloud。

曾经火热的“再质押”,如今迎来转折点。两大龙头的战略调整,是否预示着这条赛道正在走向失效?

涌现、热潮与出清

过去几年,再质押赛道经历了从概念试水到资本密集涌入的周期。

据 RootData 数据,目前再质押赛道已累计诞生 70 余个项目。以太坊生态的 EigenLayer 是首个将 ReStaking 模型推向市场的项目,并催生出 Ether.fi、Renzo、Kelp DAO 等流动性再质押协议的集体爆发。随后,Symbiotic、Karak 等新架构项目也接连登场。

2024 年,融资事件激增至 27 起,全年吸金近 2.3 亿美元,成为加密市场最炙手可热的赛道之一。进入 2025 年,融资节奏开始放缓,赛道整体热度逐步降温。

与此同时,赛道洗牌加速推进。现已有包括 Moebius Finance、goTAO、FortLayer 在内的 11 个项目相继停运,早期泡沫逐渐被清理。

目前,EigenLayer 仍是赛道的主导者,TVL 约为 142 亿美元,占据全行业超 63% 的市场份额。在其生态中,Ether.fi 占据约 75% 份额,Kelp DAO 和 Renzo 分别为 12% 和 8.5% 。

叙事失重:数据背后的冷却信号

截至当前,再质押协议的总 TVL 约为 224 亿美元,相较 2024 年 12 月的历史峰值(约 290 亿美元)已下降 22.7% 。尽管整体锁仓体量仍高,再质押增长动能已出现放缓迹象。

用户活跃度的下滑更加显著。根据 The Block 数据,以太坊流动性再质押的日活跃存款用户数已从 2024 年 7 月的高峰(上千人)骤降至当前仅三十余人,而 EigenLayer 的每日独立存款地址数量甚至跌至个位数。

从验证者角度看,再质押的吸引力也在减弱。当前以太坊每日活跃的再质押验证者,与常规质押验证者相比已不足 3% 。

此外,Ether.fi、EigenLayer、Puffer 等项目的代币价格均较高点回调超过 70% 。整体来看,尽管再质押赛道仍保有一定体量,但用户活跃度与参与热情已显著下滑,生态正陷入“失重”状态。叙事驱动效应减弱,赛道增长进入瓶颈期。

头部项目转型:再质押生意做不下去了?

当“空投期红利”褪去、赛道热度消退,可预期收益曲线趋于平滑,再质押项目开始不得不面对拷问:平台如何才能实现长期增长?

以 Ether.fi 为例,其在 2024 年底连续两月实现超 350 万美元的收入,到了 2025 年 4 月,收入回落至 240 万美元。在增长动能放缓的现实下,单一的再质押功能,或许很难撑起一个完整的商业故事了。

也正是在 4 月,Ether.fi 开始扩展产品边界,转型为“加密新型银行”,通过“账单支付、工资发放、储蓄与消费”这些真实世界场景,构建金融操作的闭环。“现金卡 + 再质押”的双轨组合,成为其试图激活用户粘性与留存的新引擎。

再质押赛道降温:头部项目的转型与突围

与 Ether.fi 的“应用层突围”不同,EigenLayer 选择的是更偏向基础设施战略层面的重构。

7 月 9 日,Eigen Labs 宣布裁员约 25% ,并将资源集中投入新产品开发者平台 EigenCloud,其也因此吸引了 a16z 新一轮 7000 万美元的投资。EigenCloud 集成了 EigenDA、EigenVerify、EigenCompute,试图为链上与链下的应用提供通用信任基础设施。

Ether.fi 和 EigenLayer 的转型,虽路径各异,却本质上指向同一逻辑的两种解法:让“再质押”从终点叙事变为“起始模块”,从目的本身变成构建更复杂应用系统的手段。

再质押未死,但其“单线程增长模式”或难再续。只有当它被嵌入更具规模效应的应用叙事中,才具备持续吸引用户与资本的能力。

再质押赛道降温:头部项目的转型与突围
再质押赛道以“二次收益”点燃市场热情的机制设计,如今正在更复杂的应用图谱中,寻找新的落点与生命力。

Breaking News: DeepSeek Announces All-Day Off-Peak Pricing on Weekends, Making Weekend Work More Cost-Effective?

DeepSeek has announced a significant change to its API pricing model, effective August 23. The new policy removes peak/off-peak distinctions on weekends (Saturdays and Sundays), charging the lower off-peak rate for the entire two-day period. This adjustment has sparked mixed reactions within the developer and professional communities. For developers and businesses heavily reliant on DeepSeek's V4-Flash and V4-Pro APIs, this is welcome news. It allows them to schedule bulk processing tasks on weekends without the higher peak-hour costs, potentially halving their API bills for such workloads. Some users have celebrated the move for making weekend work more cost-effective. However, the announcement has also raised concerns among employees. There is apprehension that companies, particularly in cost-sensitive sectors like AI-powered short drama production, might reorganize work schedules to align with these new cost incentives. Instances are already emerging where teams schedule high-token tasks during cheaper nighttime hours or adjust staff shifts. This has led to worries about a potential shift towards weekend workdays and weekday time-off, prioritizing cost savings over traditional work-life balance. Debate has ensued regarding the practicality of such schedule changes, with questions about increased communication overhead and overall efficiency. Speculation about DeepSeek's motives for the change includes theories that peak pricing correlates with internal model training schedules, though others counter that training is largely automated. The new pricing structure is now in effect, prompting users to reconsider their task scheduling strategies.

Just Now, The World's First Human vs. Robot Tennis Match Begins, Robot's Desperate Save Leaves Zheng Jie Astonished

Just now, the world's first human vs. robot tennis match began, featuring stunning robotic saves that left tennis star Zheng Jie in awe. This historic event, part of the second World Humanoid Robot Games and broadcast live globally by China Media Group, marked a pivotal moment in Chinese technological innovation and embodied artificial intelligence. The match featured both mixed human-robot doubles and a groundbreaking singles match between Zheng Jie and the "Galaxy Xingzai" humanoid robot developed by Galaxy General. The robot demonstrated impressive skills including serving, forehands, backhands, and strategic court movement, with serves exceeding 100 km/h. It exhibited remarkable adaptability, recovering from a fall to continue play and handling slices and spins. The doubles match highlighted its ability to coordinate dynamically with a human partner. The event's significance extends far beyond a novelty match. Tennis represents an ultimate pressure test for embodied AI, demanding real-time integration of perception, decision-making, full-body motion control, and live博弈 within fractions of a second—a stark contrast to the discrete, contemplative environment of board games like Go mastered by AlphaGo. It directly confronts Moravec's paradox, showcasing AI's move from digital cognition to physical execution. This capability is powered by Galaxy General's proprietary "Galaxy Star Brain" (AstraBrain) model. Its key innovation is a unified architecture that integrates high-level task understanding/tactical decision-making ("brain") and dynamic whole-body motion control ("cerebellum") into a single model, eliminating latency and information loss between separate modules. The model was trained using a two-step process via the "Galaxy Star Workshop" platform. First, it learned foundational movement priors from "imperfect" human motion data (both amateur and professional). Second, it underwent massive-scale evolution in a virtual tennis simulator where multiple AI agents played millions of games against each other. Through this adversarial training, skills like极限救球and recovery from falls emerged autonomously without explicit programming, before being transferred to the physical robot. This "AstraTennis" moment symbolizes a major leap: a decade after AlphaGo conquered the digital world, embodied AI from China has now demonstrated it can operate under the extreme, unpredictable physical pressures of real-world competition.

The Biggest Dark Horse in AI Payments Might Be Coinbase Giving Agents a Wallet

In the AI payments race, while most focus on traditional giants like Visa or AI platforms like OpenAI, Coinbase has quietly emerged as a key player. Data from 2026 shows over 90% of on-chain Agent transactions occur on Coinbase's Base network, with 99% settled in USDC and over 97% using the x402 protocol. Coinbase's pivotal move was launching "Agentic Wallets" in February 2026—a dedicated wallet infrastructure giving AI Agents their own financial identity. Unlike Visa or Stripe, which connect Agents to existing payment rails, Coinbase provides Agents with autonomous wallets to hold assets (like stablecoins), initiate transfers, and execute transactions under predefined rules. This solves core issues for machine-to-machine payments: high credit card fees for micropayments, the need for constant human authorization, and unclear transaction attribution. Coinbase's strength lies in its closed-loop ecosystem: the Base blockchain (low-cost, high-throughput), the x402 payment protocol, Agentic Wallets, and native assets like USDC. This integrated stack, built through years of infrastructure investment, positioned Coinbase to capture early Agent payment demand as the AI economy surged. The key insight is that AI payment adoption may depend less on whose standard wins and more on whose usable infrastructure is ready first. While debates over protocols and payment rails continue, real Agent transactions are already flowing—primarily through Coinbase's ecosystem. It may not be the ultimate winner, but for now, it's the frontrunner by being prepared.

Dialogue with Bitwise CIO: Bitcoin May Be Near Bottom, Who Will Drive the Next Rally?

In a recent podcast, Bitwise CIO Matt Hougan analyzed Bitcoin's current market cycle, suggesting it is near a bottom characterized by low volatility and investor indifference. He believes the next major price surge will be driven primarily by wealth management platforms, financial advisors, and family offices, who control trillions in assets and are now gaining access to Bitcoin ETFs. Hougan views Bitcoin as a long-dated, out-of-the-money call option on it becoming a global reserve asset. Its value increases with global monetary system volatility, making it a natural hedge against currency disorder. He outlined Bitcoin's adoption path: first as a global digital store of value (competing with gold), and potentially later as a check against fiat currency abuse by sovereign states. Addressing the muted price action despite institutional ETF inflows, Hougan explained that significant selling by long-term retail holders has offset buying pressure. However, he is optimistic as data shows retail selling has subsided, which, combined with continued institutional inflows, could propel prices higher. Hougan downplayed the future impact of Federal Reserve interest rates and MicroStrategy's actions on Bitcoin's price, arguing they are becoming less relevant. Instead, he pointed to runaway U.S. fiscal deficits and debt as the core long-term drivers. Finally, he discussed the transformative potential of asset tokenization, predicting all traditional assets will eventually trade 24/7 on blockchains. This will merge traditional and crypto markets, increasing efficiency but also introducing crypto-like features such as overnight volatility and easier access to leverage into traditional finance.

Dalio Warns of U.S. Bond Supply-Demand Imbalance: Gold and Bitcoin Could Become Hedge Assets in Debt Crisis

Ray Dalio warns of an unsustainable imbalance in US Treasury supply and demand, drawing parallels to the mechanisms of a "big debt cycle" described in his book. Key recent developments include Japan selling US bonds to support the yen, rising US long-term yields amid weak demand, and limited Treasury buybacks. Dalio explains that when debt service burdens become too large relative to income, and bond supply outstrips market demand, a crisis point approaches. Typically, central banks then print money to buy bonds, leading to currency devaluation and inflation. He simplifies the US government's position: with ~$5.5T in revenue, ~$7.5T in spending, a $2T deficit, and $32T in debt, annual debt service is roughly $1T in interest plus ~$10T in maturing principal needing refinancing. Without change, he estimates a potential debt crisis in roughly three years, give or take two. Dalio proposes a "3% three-part solution" to reduce the deficit to 3% of GDP through balanced spending cuts, tax increases, and naturally lower interest rates. He warns that Japan's high debt, often cited as sustainable, has led to poor bond returns and significant currency losses versus gold and the dollar. In response to questions, Dalio states that all reserve currencies eventually decline via this debt cycle mechanism. He advises investors to diversify globally, favor countries with strong finances and stable politics, underweight bonds, overweight gold, and allocate a small portion (e.g., 10-15%) to Bitcoin as hedges against government-created currency devaluation.
