Resumen

过去 10 年的加密消费者应用程序很有趣,但接下来的 10 年将会比之前有趣 100 倍 。

未来 10 年,我最坚定的信念就是加密应用程序将渗透到文化的各个方面。过去 10 年,加密应用主要在深度技术和金融领域发展,但在接下来的 10 年中,我们将看到加密消费者应用程序与新闻、政治、体育、健康 / 健身、音乐、直播视频、播客等领域的碰撞。这些应用程序将成为有史以来最有用和最有价值的应用程序之一。

这种观点似乎与当前主流投资者相悖,他们一直在向非原创的零和产品投入大笔资金。虽然市场大肆宣传第 N 个可扩展的 L1 和有收益的稳定币,但开发者们正在悄悄构建能够带来新消费者行为的产品,这将帮助行业尽快吸引 10 亿用户并造福全世界。

我早期就参与了许多消费者应用程序(包括:Coinbase、OpenSea、Polymarket、dYdX),也从中学到了很多东西。过去 10 年里,这些应用程序在连接加密货币和文化,并吸引新用户方面取得了最大的成功。 

如果你正在考虑下一代顶级加密消费者应用程序,以下 4 个经验可能对你有用:

加密消费者应用程序的普及之路不会一蹴而就,所以要专注于你相信的事情(除了赚钱之外),并坚持下去。Polymarket 此前多次被注销,但创始人 Shayne Coplan 和团队坚信预测市场可以为世界带来更多真相。他们一路上遇到了可能导致大多数人放弃的障碍,但坚定的信念帮助他们活了下来。 Polymarket 2024 年的交易额已超过 4.23 亿美元,目前在 2024 年美国总统选举中发挥着重要作用。请记住:信念和坚持终会得到回报。

兼顾纯粹主义者和游客是关键。十多年来,Coinbase 巧妙地存在于纯粹主义者和游客的交汇地带。如果一个产品过于纯粹,它就会停留在小众市场,永远不会突破。可能有一小部分人精通历史知识并欣赏其中的细微差别,但只为纯粹主义者构建会限制你的市场规模。如果一个产品太过重视游客,人们就会喜欢它一时,然后离开它,来得快去得也快。 2012 年,Brian Armstrong 做出了一个早期的设计决定,向用户提供托管钱包服务,因为他们相信非托管钱包不会促进大众市场的增长。得益于这一决定,Coinbase 现在成为了一家价值超 500 亿美元的上市公司。(延伸阅读:《1co nfirmation:纯粹主义者与游客,谁是加密世界的主要推动者?》)

深入了解用户和你所在市场的文化。当 OpenSea 于 2018 年推出时,有不少其他 NFT 市场筹集了更多资金,并吸引了更多知名投资者参与。 OpenSea 获胜是因为 Dfinzer 和 Xanderatallah 并不关心虚假的声望或为公司营造一些虚假的叙事,他们只专注于构建有用的产品。他们与每一位 NFT 创作者交谈,他们参加每一次 NFT 活动,他们比竞争对手更了解文化。不要只关心表面的叙事,深入研究,你就会比浮于表面的玩家更长久。

创建自己的生态。真正有用的应用程序不需要迎合任何现有的生态,而是创建自己的生态。 dYdX 已经在这方面指明了道路。 Antonio MJuliano 和团队从以太坊生态系统开始,然后推出了 StarkEx 支持的 L2,进而推出了由 Cosmos SDK 支持的 dYdX 链。这种趋势在未来可能会更加普遍。一旦证明了应用程序的实用性,你就可以推出自己的链并拥有完全的主权。

过去 10 年的加密消费者应用程序很有趣,但接下来的 10 年将会比之前有趣 100 倍 。

Airwallex's Pivot: From Dismissing Stablecoins a Year Ago to Making High-Profile Investments Today

Airwallex, a major cross-border payments fintech, has made a notable strategic shift by leading a seed round investment in Metal, a tokenized financial settlement network. This move is significant given that Airwallex founder Jack Zhang was a prominent critic of stablecoins just a year prior, arguing they failed to reduce costs for mainstream currency corridors and lacked clear utility. The investment targets Metal, a Layer-1 blockchain designed for the tokenization and settlement of assets like stocks, bonds, and stablecoins, aiming for the institutional market. Metal's team includes veterans from Ren Protocol and Meta's Diem project. For Airwallex, this partnership integrates tokenized finance into its global payments network, providing a new settlement layer. Despite his company's investment, Zhang maintains a distinction, stating his skepticism toward "cryptocurrencies" remains, while classifying regulated, asset-backed stablecoins as a separate category. This stance reflects a broader trend of traditional finance (TradFi) cautiously engaging with crypto infrastructure. Companies like Stripe, Mastercard, and major banks are similarly exploring stablecoin payments and tokenization networks, recognizing their potential in emerging markets and 24/7 settlement. The article concludes that Airwallex's investment is less a change of belief and more a strategic necessity to secure a position in the evolving landscape of digital asset settlement, where stablecoins are becoming a key interface for global finance.

Spicy Review|Is the "Most Emotionally Valuable" Post Here? Could STRC Be the Next LUNA?

Here is an English summary of the article (under 1500 characters): This article from the spicy commentary series "LaPing" covers three key stories in the crypto world for the week. First, during a sharp market downturn in June where BTC fell over 20%, a Reddit post on r/Cryptocurrency rallying against "Fear, Uncertainty, and Doubt (FUD)" went viral. The comment section became a hub for retail traders to share memes and encouragement, with many advocating holding (HODLing) through the volatility, embodying the "be fearful when others are greedy" mantra. Second, it examines the situation with STRG (Strategy's perpetual preferred stock), which has "de-pegged," trading around $76 vs. its $100 face value, a ~25% discount. The concern is whether Michael Saylor's company, MicroStrategy, can sustain the $1.2 billion annual dividend payment, given its ~$1.4 billion cash reserve. While analysts note STRG is fundamentally different from the catastrophic LUNA collapse—as Saylor isn't obligated to pay the dividend—risks remain. If MicroStrategy's (MSTR) common stock investors feel their capital is being prioritized for STRG dividends, it could hurt MSTR demand. Third, the article analyzes the online persona of "Chuan Mu," a trader famous for turning $500 into $1 million during the 2023 ORDI inscription boom and again with short positions in 2025. An analysis of his 1,828 tweets reveals his success stems from a top-down analytical framework, asking systemic questions like "Where will the bottleneck be in the AI supply chain?" rather than chasing individual pumps. His investments migrated from crypto-linked stocks to AI infrastructure plays like SK Hynix and Samsung. However, the piece also notes criticism that he has occasionally "pumped" assets and sold positions without notifying followers, creating a contradictory public image. The weekly recap highlights themes of community sentiment during bear markets, financial instrument risks, and the complex realities of following influential online traders.
