谁将从中获益最多?

目前只有少数人关注到@LayerZero_Core 对@StargateFinance 的收购,但由于此类合并极为罕见,我认为值得深入探讨。

提案摘要

LayerZero 计划收购 Stargate 的代币及资金库(按当前比例,每枚 $STG 由 $0.1444 的资金支持),并终止 Stargate DAO,将其并入 $ZRO 主导的经济体系。

  • 收购价格:每枚 $STG 为 $0.1675,或每 1 枚 $ZRO 兑换 0.08634 枚 $STG。

  • 该提案将遵循 Stargate DAO 的标准流程,需至少 120 万票且赞成率达到 70% 才能通过。

  • 未来 Stargate 产生的超额收入将用于通过回购减少 $ZRO 的流通量。

利弊分析

这引出一个关键问题:「谁将从中获益最多?」

当前情况下,LayerZero 和 $ZRO 持有者似乎是最大受益方,因为这是一次通过其代币进行的流动性收购,具体表现为:

  • 以 16% 的适度溢价收购 Stargate 资金库支持的 $STG,同时增加 $ZRO 持有者数量。

  • 赚取协议产生的费用(据@DefiLlama 数据,年化约 174 万美元),这些费用将用于在公开市场回购 $ZRO。

  • 通过回购垂直整合 $ZRO 代币经济与跨链业务(LayerZero 处于领先地位),并提升其效用。

而 $STG 和 $veSTG(锁定 STG)持有者能得到什么?并不多:

由于 $ZRO 近期价格上涨,其兑换折扣较低;$STG 因市场波动仅有微弱溢价,但价格下限明确。

经过最初 24 小时讨论,LayerZero 决定向 $veSTG 持有者支付六个月的 Stargate 收入,因为他们无法在锁定期结束前解锁代币。

弊端与隐忧

此处问题复杂,但归根结底在于一个词:妥协。

LayerZero 在当前形势下获利更多,而 Stargate 代币持有者则难以满意。以下是三大问题和不确定性:

  • 应如何计算 LayerZero 收购 $STG 的合理溢价?

  • 对 $STG 持有者而言,「两害相权」如何选择?是继续承受代币持续抛压,还是选择安全但缺乏上升空间的方案?

  • $veSTG 持有者的平均锁仓期约为一年,若提案通过,仅获六个月补偿,其激励何在?

  • 目前 $STG 的完全稀释估值(FDV)不足 $ZRO 的 10%,而价值 810 万美元的 $STG 以 $veSTG 形式锁定。

许多持有者要求 1:1 兑换 $ZRO 与 $STG,但这并不合理,这意味着他们瞬间获得 12 倍收益,而 LayerZero 需动用全部 FDV 收购一个资金库稳健但收入有限的业务。

个人观点

尽管我认为 LayerZero 团队应重新评估支付给 $STG 持有者的溢价,并为质押者设计更合理的收入分成方案,但此次收购对项目本身未必是灾难。

DAO 主要依赖收入和代币发行维持运营,而 $STG 从历史高点暴跌超 95%,年化收入仅 200 万美元的 Stargate 已难有扩展空间。此外 Stargate 本就依赖 LayerZero 的基础设施,整合后更易借助其技术栈和资金实现增长。

尽管如此,我认为该提案对 Stargate 有意义,但无需急于定论。$STG 持有者对 LayerZero 的留存与忠诚度,很大程度上取决于团队如何处理此事。否则,他们可能失去一批潜在的新 $ZRO 忠实持有者及从项目伊始支持 Stargate 的参与者。

更新:

提案已在 Stargate DAO 上线,最低门槛已达成,目前 230 万枚流通中的 $veSTG(总计 1700 万枚)投出「赞成」(98% 对 2%「反对」)。

我不认为这是恶意收购,但现阶段 LayerZero 的获益显然远超 $STG 和 $veSTG 持有者。

How the CLARITY Act Reshapes the Stablecoin Yield Economy

The CLARITY Act, recently advanced by the U.S. Senate Banking Committee, fundamentally reshapes the stablecoin yield economy by closing loopholes left by the earlier GENIUS Act. Its Section 404 expands the ban on "hold-to-earn" rewards to all Digital Asset Service Providers (DASPs) and their affiliates, prohibiting any passive, interest-like yield. Crucially, it introduces a legal distinction, permitting "use-to-earn" rewards based on actual activities like spending, trading, or staking. In anticipation of this regulatory shift, major Wall Street asset managers—Morgan Stanley, BlackRock, and JPMorgan—have launched a series of tokenized money market funds (e.g., BlackRock's BRSRV, JPMorgan's JLTXX) designed explicitly for stablecoin reserve assets. These products represent a new, compliant yield layer: the stablecoin issuer earns interest from the underlying tokenized fund, which can then be passed to users through redesigned activity-based rewards. This marks a paradigm shift from a "hold-to-earn" to a "use-to-earn" market. While pathways remain for exchanges to redesign rewards (Path A) and for DeFi protocols to offer yield (Path B), the tokenized reserve asset layer (Path C) emerges as the most robust and strategically positioned infrastructure. However, this concentration—exemplified by BlackRock's BUIDL fund backing over 90% of USDtb's reserves—introduces new systemic risks. The final outcome hinges on regulatory decisions, particularly the OCC's proposed 20% cap on tokenized assets in reserves, which will determine the scalability of this new financial infrastructure layer.

Kalshi and Coinbase Receive CFTC Approval, Ushering in the Most Regulation-Friendly Era for the Crypto Industry?

The U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) took two landmark actions on May 29. It approved Kalshi's application to list a Bitcoin perpetual futures contract and issued a no-action letter to Coinbase Financial Markets. This allows Coinbase to offer certain perpetual futures products to U.S. customers through a subsidiary, with digital assets permitted as collateral. These moves, coupled with a new CFTC policy statement, provide a clearer regulatory pathway for perpetual contracts in the U.S., moving them from a regulatory gray area. CFTC Chair Mike Selig stated this is a key step for U.S. crypto leadership but noted the policy is not yet permanent. The article explains that CFTC's previous reluctance stemmed from legal ambiguities, as perpetual contracts lack an expiration date. However, such contracts dominate global crypto derivatives, accounting for ~78% of centralized exchange volume in 2025, forcing U.S. regulators to adapt to competition from offshore platforms like Hyperliquid. The approvals offer two compliance paths: Kalshi's direct listing and Coinbase's model using foreign futures. This is expected to attract institutional capital back to regulated U.S. venues, stimulate the launch of more products like ETH perpetuals, and enhance U.S. competitiveness in the global crypto derivatives market. The author suggests this may signal a "regulatorily friendly" era for crypto.

Sharplink CEO: Ethereum's Future Is Playing Out Now

This article presents a perspective from Joseph Chalom, CEO of Sharplink and a former BlackRock executive. He argues that current controversies surrounding the Ethereum Foundation (EF) and ETH's price miss the bigger picture for institutional adoption. Chalom asserts that Ethereum is decisively winning in the three key attributes institutions value most: trust, security, and liquidity. He cites its dominance in stablecoin settlement, tokenized real-world assets (RWA), and high-value DeFi as evidence. This success is attributed to the EF's consistent, long-term protocol development over a decade, including major upgrades like The Merge and a robust future roadmap. He defends Ethereum's decentralization as a core strength, not a weakness, stating institutions require a neutral infrastructure not controlled by any single entity. Comparing ETH to Amazon, Chalom suggests critics focusing on short-term price are missing its potential to become the foundational settlement layer for the entire global financial system. The article encourages a contrarian "be greedy when others are fearful" investment approach, drawing parallels to Warren Buffett's strategy and BlackRock's continued investment during crypto winters. Chalom concludes that while the EF correctly focuses on core protocol attributes (CROPS: Censorship Resistance, Capture Resistance, Open Source, Privacy, Security), a leadership gap exists in market-facing narrative and institutional adoption. He calls for ecosystem participants, including his own firm Sharplink, to become more vocal advocates to support Ethereum's impending "supercycle" of institutional adoption.

Deconstructing the Investment Methodology of the 'Stock God Serenity' in One Article

"Serenity's Bottleneck Investment Methodology: A Deep Dive" This article dissects the "bottleneck point investment" strategy of the pseudonymous investor Serenity, known for exceptional returns (YTD 4502.45%). The core methodology involves identifying a major technological trend (e.g., AI compute expansion), mapping its supply chain, and investing early in the most irreplaceable, supply-constrained upstream component before the market fully values it. The framework is broken down into a five-factor model: 1. **Deterministic Demand**: Anchored in a large, validated trend. 2. **Constrained Supply**: The component must be difficult to replicate or scale quickly. 3. **Low Market Attention**: Opportunities exist where coverage is sparse. 4. **Value Capture**: The company must have pricing power, high margins, and customer lock-in. 5. **Catalyst**: A near-term event to trigger price discovery (earnings, customer ramp, etc.). The article provides illustrative examples like $AXTI (InP substrates for photonics), $RPI (edge hardware for AI agents), and $AAOI/$LITE (components for cloud ASICs). To apply this method, a six-step process is outlined: identify the macro trend, map the supply chain, pinpoint the true bottleneck, gather evidence (client wins, certifications), assess risks ("anti-thesis table"), and size the position according to research depth. Crucially, the article notes significant limitations: risk of overfitting inferences from sparse data, valuation challenges for pre-revenue companies, liquidity/reflexivity risks due to Serenity's own market influence, and survivor bias amplified by a strong AI bull market. The key takeaway is to emulate the rigorous research process—finding the trend, the bottleneck, the evidence—rather than blindly copying specific stock picks, emphasizing the discipline of "walking through the narrow gate."
