Resumen

探索比特币的新可能性,在资产协议和扩容领域奋力前行。

1. 引言

欢迎收听由 Ryze Labs 带来的 Ryze Up 栏目。Ryze Labs 是连接东西方的桥梁,我们希望加速新兴市场中Web3的发展,并影响全球的Web3世界。Local Insights, Global Impact,让我们一起启程,Time to Ryze Up。

Ryze Labs 曾成功投资了 Polygon、Sui、Solana、LayerZero 和 Wintermute 等高增长潜力项目。

本期节目主持人:Joven,Ryze Labs 商务拓展总监,专注于拓展基金在全球开发者社区的影响,并为基金的投资组合公司提供战略指导。

特邀嘉宾:Jeff,Bitmap tech 的 Founder,Bitmap tech 致力于在比特币生态创建新的资产协议和扩容方案,包括资产协议 BRC 420、比特币 Layer 2 Merlin Chain、元宇宙项目 Bitmap.Game、递归协议 Recursiverse 等。

2. 被 DMT 理论吸引决定建设 Bitmap Tech

在创立 Bitmap tech 之前,Jeff 已经在Web2行业创业了十几年,虽然一直都有关注区块链行业,但始终没有说服自己进入Web3领域创业。在 2023 年看到 Ordinals 和 BTC 生态之后,决定在 2023 年五六月,市场对铭文仍有偏见的时候,开始建设整个比特币生态。

关于 Bitmap tech 和 Bitmap 的关系,很多人容易混淆。实际上,Bitmap 是 Blockamoto 发明的,Bitmap tech 是 Bitmap 上的深度建设者。当时在 Bitmap 上建设也是被 DMT(Digital Meta theory)理论吸引,所有的内容都是数字生成的,每一个区块可以对应一个 avatar、一首歌或者一个小世界,数据永久的存储并且无法篡改。

而 Bitmap 是这个概念相关的最令人激动的资产,因此选择在 Bitmap 上进行建设。

3. BRC 420 的核心优势

Bitmap tech 团队推出的 BRC 420 协议是一个理论上很晦涩,但实操上和产品上非常酷的一个资产类型。核心有两个优势:第一个优势在于,相比于以太坊上的 NFT 存储在中心化的云服务器上,比如亚马逊云、阿里云等等,BRC 420 的资产可以存储在链上,从而可以实现内容的不可篡改和永久存储;

第二个优势在于开源和永久存在带来的可组合性,世界上所有的创新都是基于前人的努力,例如游戏中的爆款产品英雄联盟、CS 等等也都是基于前人的创意。而如果把所有的内容都铭刻在铭文里,后面的人就可以基于前人在铭文里的内容进行引用和二次创新。

总的来说,BRC 420 的核心在内容的模块化和模块的资产化。内容的模块化是指可以将游戏的玩法、人物、音乐等全部以铭文的方式刻上去,比如有 1000 个铭文,成为一个个模块,这些模块也可以结合起来成为一个最终的内容,可以对这个内容进行代币化。当用户拥有了这个代币之后,既成为了项目的股东,也可以拥有内容访问权,同时也成为了项目的潜在 builder。

因此,BRC 420 的想象空间非常大,不论是音乐、游戏还是各种类型的事物都可以变成模块,然后变成资产,给创业者和开发者带来了很大的空间。

4. Pandora、BRC 420 与图币二象性

关于最近很火的 Pandora 的 ERC 404 的图币二象性方面,Jeff 表示图币二象性的概念最早是由 Bitmap tech 团队提出的。提出之后,也有很多项目在做类似的事情。不过 BRC 420 和 Pandora 这样的项目的本质区别在于,ERC 404 这类标准更多的是在金融维度上着手,切入金融角度来增加币和图的流动性。而 Bitmap tech 项目方更希望从 utility 的角度着手,例如 Bitmap 在元宇宙里可以作为土地、有了土地就可以有 space 等。先做 utility,然后金融的衍生需求的满足是一个顺其自然的过程。

而 Bitmap tech 之前推出蓝盒子的本质是因为任何一个资产协议都需要 first token,就像 Domo 推出 BRC 20 的时候,推出了 Ordi 代币。与其让市场随意的发第一个 token,不如让开发协议的团队自己来发第一个 token,于是推出了 token 叫 BRC 420 ,也就是大家俗称的蓝盒子。

并且由于项目的早期关注者和硬核的支持者在思考能力和影响力都是比较不错的,因此也带动了项目的出圈。而在项目出圈价格上涨之后,这些社区的 OG 也自然的开始为项目做出更多的贡献,包括概念的解释和传播等等。

BRC 420 协议推出之后,基于此也诞生了 1000 多个项目,有了像蓝水晶、音乐盒这样让人意想不到的创新。

5. Merlin Chain 的社区成功来自于公开透明

想做 Merlin Chain 的初衷源自于发现很多元宇宙、自治世界和金融相关的需求在比特币 Layer 1 上无法实现,因此做比特币的扩容是必须的。

目前在比特币 Layer 2 上的技术解决方案上,大部分是比较接近的。Merlin 之所以没有公开技术解决方案,是因为由于链的火爆,团队的时间精力都放在了解决链上拥堵,给用户提供更好的体验上。而大部分 Layer 2 之所以一直在强调技术方面,是因为其主网一直没有上线。

Merlin 社区成功的核心原因在于公开透明,在所有公开的采访和 twitter space 都会表达最真实的想法,比如为什么说自己是 Layer 2 ,因为发现很多技术类似却更薄弱的团队也说自己是 layer 2 。这种公开透明的态度让社区的人比较认同。

第二,为了避免 marketing fee 影响社区的公正性,项目选择了零市场营销费用,很多 youtube、podcast、twitter 上的人都是自发宣传的。营造出一种信仰和精神图腾的氛围。

第三,相比于一些想蹭比特币生态热度,后来才来建设的项目,社区成员更愿意接受像 Merlin 团队这样从生态早期就开始建设的团队获得收益的果实。

为什么很多西方玩铭文的人喜欢 Merlin,因为比特币的筹码已经分了很多年,但是铭文却才刚开始。Merlin 给铭文的赋能吸引了很多的西方用户。此外,对于比特币生息的需求也是很多比特币大户的刚需。而 Merlin Chain 能很好的满足这两者的需求,这也是爆火的原因之一。

6. 核心是服务好项目的目标用户

对于未来的比特币 Layer 2 竞争,Jeff 认为核心是做好自己的事情,服务好自己的目标用户就好。生态里会有很多潜在的 builder 一起共建。

Merlin 目前有三个基金,一个是流动性基金,为整个生态和应用的二级市场提供流动性。另一个是生态基金,进行项目投资;第三个是 Merlin token,将一部分 token 预留给了 builder 和早期开发团队。

目前 Bitmap tech 团队做递归协议、BRC 420 ,Merlin,更多地是被市场推着往前走,一方面,不想放弃之前的用户和产品,另一方面也希望去解决更大的需求和技术挑战,所以会竭尽所能去努力面对和解决这些挑战。

7. 结尾

未来希望有更多更好的开发者加入,因为 Merlin 本身已经吸引了大量的散户和这个资产进来,如何能更好地利用好这些资产?如何能更好的服务用户,是团队密切关注的。

目前比特币生态仍处于一个非常早期的阶段,希望所有的开发者、投资人以及生态不要去急功近利,而是更加关注早期的底子如何能打好,如何能茁壮成长,一起更好的共建比特币生态。

Soaring Export Data for Memory Chips, Market Is Redefining the Valuation Anchor for Memory Stocks

Korean storage export data for the first 20 days of June shows substantial year-on-year increases in both value and price-per-kilogram for categories like DRAM, NAND, and SSDs. This signals a potential shift beyond simple demand recovery, indicating rising prices and a product mix shift towards higher-value items, possibly influenced by AI infrastructure needs. A key point is that the surge in price-per-kilogram is not simply a uniform chip price hike. It reflects a combination of actual price increases and, more importantly, an export structure increasingly dominated by high-value-density products like HBM (High-Bandwidth Memory) and advanced DRAM, which are critical for AI servers. This suggests AI-driven demand may be spilling over from just HBM into broader memory markets. SK Hynix stands to benefit directly due to its leading HBM position. For Samsung and Micron, the implication is potential for greater margin elasticity if the tightness in high-end memory spreads to enterprise SSD and NAND prices. However, the storage sector remains cyclical. Risks include supply expansion, inventory changes, and potential slowdowns in broader AI capital expenditure. Ultimately, while the strong export data supports upward revisions for storage company earnings and fuels discussion of an "AI infrastructure bottleneck premium," a definitive valuation shift from a cyclical to a structural story depends on upcoming quarterly reports. Investors need confirmation from SK Hynix, Samsung, and Micron that improvements in average selling prices, product mix, and, crucially,毛利率 are sustained over multiple quarters.

Why Does SpaceX Have Such a High Valuation Ceiling? The Answer Lies in Musk's Business Blueprint

SpaceX achieved a record-breaking IPO on June 12, 2026, with its market cap surging past $2.1 trillion. This valuation reflects its central role within Elon Musk's expansive, interconnected technological ecosystem. The article details how four core components form a synergistic closed-loop system: 1) **The "Brain" (xAI & Orbital Compute):** xAI provides AI models and massive ground/space-based supercomputing for simulation and decision-making across the system. 2) **The "Neural Logistics Core" (Starlink & Starship):** Starlink's low-latency satellite network enables global data transmission, while Starship's low-cost, reusable launch capacity aims to make large-scale space deployment economically viable. 3) **The "Physical Body" (Tesla & Optimus):** Tesla's manufacturing prowess and energy products support hardware production and power, pivoting toward mass-producing the Optimus humanoid robot for terrestrial and potential space-based labor. 4) **The "Human Interface" (Neuralink & X):** Neuralink seeks direct brain-computer communication, and the X platform provides real-time societal data. Together, these elements create three reinforcing "flywheels": manufacturing/logistics, data-driven iteration, and energy/compute/network synergy. This integrated approach promises lower costs, faster innovation cycles, and potential infrastructure-as-a-service offerings. However, it also concentrates technical, regulatory, and corporate governance risks. Ultimately, SpaceX's high valuation stems from its position as the indispensable infrastructural backbone—handling space transport, global communications, and future orbital computing—tying together Musk's entire vision for a self-reinforcing technological empire.

Snap, Unprofitable for Nine Years, and a Decade-Long AR Obsession Without Return

Snap's AR Obsession: A Decade of Betting Against the Odds On June 16, Snap CEO Evan Spiegel unveiled the new AR glasses, Specs, priced at $2,195, causing the company's stock (SNAP) to plummet nearly 10%. The launch was met with intense criticism online, with investors questioning why a consistently unprofitable company would stake its future on an expensive product its core young user base can't afford. Snapchat, known for pioneering features like ephemeral Stories and popular AR lenses (like the iconic dog filter), has a history of innovation often copied by rivals like Instagram and Meta. Despite this, it has struggled to translate first-mover advantage into commercial success. Since its 2017 IPO, Snap has reported annual net losses, with a Q1 2026 loss of $89 million. Its stock is down 94% from its 2021 peak, hampered by iOS privacy changes, competition, and a young demographic less attractive to major advertisers. In this challenging context, Spiegel is doubling down on AR. He calls 2026 a "crucible moment," having recently laid off 16% of staff while reportedly investing over $3.5 billion cumulatively in its AR glasses line over nearly a decade. The new Specs represent a significant leap from the 2016 camera-focused Spectacles, offering true AR overlays, gesture control, and standalone operation. However, at $2,195, it faces tough comparisons. While more advanced than Meta's $799 Ray-Ban smart glasses, critics point to its heavier weight, short battery life, and features largely replicable by a smartphone. Facing pressure from investors to cut losses on the Specs project, Spiegel has refused, framing it as essential to Snap's long-term vision. The company finds itself in a paradoxical position: cutting costs while heavily funding a decade-long, unproven bet. Some see Specs as an awkward but necessary step in AR's evolution, akin to early mobile phones. Whether Spiegel is a visionary outlier or a gambler destined to fail remains an open question, highlighting the tension between long-term ambition and short-term market demands.

Annualized Revenue Exceeds $20 Billion, Kalshi Aims to Become the First Prediction Platform IPO?

Kalshi, a leading U.S. prediction markets platform, is reportedly in early, informal discussions for an Initial Public Offering (IPO). The company's annualized revenue now exceeds $2 billion, fueled by its dominance of over 90% of the domestic prediction market activity. This growth stems from a surge in trading volume—reaching a total of $52.7 billion—and an increase in fee rates, largely driven by sports event contracts like the NBA playoffs and the 2026 FIFA World Cup. Monthly active users are approximately 2 million. Kalshi recently raised $1 billion in a funding round led by Coatue Management, valuing the company at $22 billion. It has also expanded its offerings to include Bitcoin perpetual contracts and plans to launch a dedicated trading platform, Kalshi Pro. However, Kalshi's path to an IPO faces significant regulatory hurdles. The core risk involves jurisdictional conflicts, as multiple U.S. states are challenging its operations under local gambling laws. For instance, Arizona has filed criminal charges against the platform, while states like Kentucky have filed lawsuits. Kalshi and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) argue that its event contracts fall under exclusive federal jurisdiction as "swaps." The outcomes of these ongoing legal battles could critically impact Kalshi's core revenue and its IPO timeline. Analysts suggest that while an IPO could theoretically occur by late 2026, a more likely timeframe is late 2027 or 2028, contingent on resolving legal issues and favorable market conditions. If successful, its fundraising could significantly exceed $1 billion, given its current valuation and revenue multiple.
