四月复盘:请给DeFi老狗们一点时间

0xSorosPublished on 2024-08-09Last updated on 2024-08-09

折腾了一个多月,回首发现,主线行情不过两个:APE和GMT。

先复盘一下自己的仓位。LUNA的仓位成本线附近,Astro倒是翻了倍。LUNA生态总体介入太晚,连汤都没有喝到。

DFK出了大乌龙,团队成员在项目冷启动时印假币,地址都是假的。原以为Avalacnhe上Subnet是新的开始,没想到是出货的机会。我已经视DFK仓位归零,不过还好当初买的场外筹码,成本2刀,归零也在承受范围内,浮盈做了一波过山车。愿赌服输。

同时GameFi集体熄火,相关代币一地鸡毛。AXS不知不觉从150刀跌到了50刀,宠物更是跌了几十倍。加之近期6亿美元的黑客盗窃事件,小毛哥等NFT圈的领袖人物对此的看法是AXS已经完成了它的历史使命。这相当于给AXS判了死刑。

你方唱罢我登场。Move To Earn崛起。GMT仅二级一个月40倍收益。热钱还是集中在出圈的项目上。也出现了一些跑鞋的仿盘,Coingecko也开立了Move To Earn的专栏。不知道会不会像当年GameFi一样开启一波仿盘的行情。

GMT让人重新思考的一点是,国产项目的偏见需要被打破。更准确说是华人团队。之所以有这样的偏见,是因为在过去七八年的行业发展中,有太多割韭菜的项目是中国团队。但GMT恰恰就是两名华人创业者发起的项目。其中一位还是我19年就认识的朋友,就这么和财富擦肩而过了。

对于Web3项目,中国创业者恰恰是最有优势的。无论是在产品的开发迭代进度,还是社区活动、市场营销,项目冷启动,创始人的勤奋程度。中国项目为什么不能成功?如果继续保持这种偏见,我想我们会错过更多机会。

Crypto Native的那一套东西,经过币圈十年发展,套路已经完全摸清。而对于NFT/GameFi/Web3,很多人还未看懂。看不明白的地方便有利润可图。同时传统的币,上市估值过高,潜在的抛压,扎堆的私募,这些是代币价格迟迟起不来的原因。

而NFT基本上剔除了私募的一环,和DeFi刚刚兴起时一样,属于Fair To Launch。管你散户还是鲸鱼,大家都得公平竞争,在二级市场买入。或许我们可以说,当一样事物由婴儿期发展到成熟期,必然会从公平发型阶段过渡到传统多轮次私募投资。

再说句不合时宜的话,今后的Move To Earn会是现在GameFi一地鸡毛的结局吗。

NFT原生玩家和DeFi老玩家对NFT的判断还是存在着分歧。拿BAYC来讲,NFT玩家会觉得猴地只是刚刚开始,这是Yuga Labs在NFT领域做到老大地位后在细分领域的又一次尝试。同时BAYC生态估值的提高进一步打开NFT的上涨空间。而DeFi老玩家更多认为猴地是BAYC生态崩盘的起点。

能够感知到DeFi的这一代玩家在很吃力的跟随NFT时代的步伐,并且对很多事物的判断有一定的偏差。对DeFi的路径依赖导致他们会偏向于买币,而对NFT/图片本能的抗拒。心中的声音是:真不舍得把以太坊和美金花在这些图片上啊。而NFT玩家则是把ETH当作欢乐豆来玩。

包括行业里的一些依靠DeFi起家的知名KOL,他们的分析文章中,鲜少提及NFT领域。NFT本身就是他们的薄弱项,在这块他们很少染指。问过一些人,对此他们的回答是:因为知之甚少,所以不知道说什么,也不敢乱说。

只能说时代真的变了。一代新人换旧人。

很多NFT的玩家看不起DeFi玩家,能够理解。看着当年赚的盆满钵满的那波人,如今很难赚到钱,而自己又处于浪潮之巅,难免会有些骄傲。不过我想说,很多DeFi玩家在努力跟上,只是有点慢,认知的转变往往需要1-2年的时间。多给他们一些时间。

大家手里没钱吗。不是的。经过一轮牛市,大家多少都赚到了一定数量的钱。只是市场缺乏合适的标的。大家出手都非常谨慎。

DeFi已经完全没有利润可图。引用陆老师的话,Uniswap会继续侵蚀DEX的市场份额,但这并不代表UNI代币会涨价。散户、鲸鱼、机构、从业者,所有人都看懂了DeFi。DeFi已经完全沦为挖矿和低风险低收益理财的工具了。

尽管对于Web3我没有一个明确定义,不过Twitter是我心目中很Web3的产品。在Twitter上能听到各种声音。百家争鸣,有教无类。马斯克收购推特一事意义重大。

今后会把刚多的仓位和注意力放在NFT和Web3,摆脱买币的路径依赖,只要能赚钱,买币还是买图并没有区别。

很多玩家会觉得最近一两年的几波大行情都没有抓到而感到懊丧,作为过来人,我觉得大可不必。毕竟当时我们也是亏了三四年才有朝一日抓住翻盘的机会。

NVIDIA CPU Advances, China's RISC-V Responds: Semiconductor Deep Dive - Part Four

NVIDIA is set to launch its new Vera AI data center CPU in China as early as August, with high pricing. While this move offers a new option, it highlights China's continued dependence on foreign-controlled Arm architecture. In response, the Chinese semiconductor industry is increasingly turning to RISC-V as a strategic alternative for achieving high-performance computing autonomy. The article explores the concept of the "impossible triangle" in CPU development—balancing prosperity, control, and autonomy—and posits that RISC-V's open-source, modular nature offers a unique path to achieving all three. While RISC-V is already dominant in embedded systems, the focus is now shifting to data centers and AI workloads. China has become a global hotspot for RISC-V development, driven by AI-driven compute demand, supply chain concerns from export controls, cost benefits of open-source, and strong policy support. Multiple Chinese companies have reportedly crossed the key performance threshold of 15 SPECint per GHz, a benchmark for entering the high-performance CPU club. Progress extends beyond single-core benchmarks. Companies are developing complete computing subsystems, including commercial-grade coherent network-on-chip (NoC) technology and server processors with up to 40 cores that strictly adhere to the RVA23 standard to ensure software compatibility. Real-world applications are emerging in areas like video transcoding and edge AI. However, significant challenges remain. The RISC-V ecosystem faces fragmentation, immature toolchains and verification processes, and gaps in single-core performance and energy efficiency compared to mature x86 and Arm architectures. The formidable software moat, epitomized by NVIDIA's CUDA, is a long-term hurdle. In conclusion, while RISC-V cannot immediately replace offerings like NVIDIA's Vera, it represents a viable long-term path for China to develop a self-sufficient, high-performance CPU ecosystem. The journey is acknowledged to be long and arduous, requiring sustained effort to overcome technical and ecosystem challenges.

My Coding Betting Dashboard is Profiting, but Polymarket is Truly Not a Good Place for 'Arbitrage'

The author built a custom monitoring dashboard for Polymarket, a prediction market platform, and tested it with $1,600, achieving over 30% returns. However, the core argument is that Polymarket is not a good venue for traditional arbitrage. The dashboard has two main sections: a "Portfolio Dashboard" for tracking active positions with key metrics like total capital, P&L, and a risk-control module using a tier system (T1, T2, T3), and an "Opportunity Watchlist" for monitoring markets. The article details a critical structural trap in binary markets: a bet with a high perceived probability of success still carries a 100% loss risk if wrong. The author's T1/T2/T3 system is designed to manage this by limiting position sizes based on conviction and time horizon, emphasizing that high confidence should not equal high concentration. A key insight is the danger of "pseudo-diversification"—betting on different markets driven by the same underlying variable. The author concludes that Polymarket offers few true low-risk, arbitrage opportunities. It is instead a high-risk environment where wins can create a false sense of mastery, leading to large losses. The platform is better viewed as a training ground for honing judgment through disciplined, framework-driven betting rather than a reliable income source. The tools help transform intuition into structured, rule-based decisions to mitigate the risk of catastrophic errors.

WeChat AI Card Hands-On Guide: Has the AI Shopping Era Arrived?

**"WeChat AI Card" Practical Test Guide: Has the Era of AI Shopping Arrived?** WeChat has officially launched the "AI Exclusive Card," a feature integrated into its Workbuddy AI assistant. This card is designed to handle payments for AI-initiated purchases. Our hands-on test reveals it's not yet a tool for fully autonomous AI shopping, but rather a controlled payment layer for AI agents. The AI Card functions as an isolated sub-wallet within WeChat Pay. Users must bind the card and transfer funds into it from their main wallet. Crucially, every transaction requires explicit user confirmation via smartphone scan; AI cannot spend autonomously. Currently accessible through the Workbuddy agent, the card targets specific digital consumption scenarios: purchasing paid content (reports, data), calling paid APIs/tools, and subscribing to services. Its design prioritizes security and control by separating funds and mandating approval for each payment. We tested a real-world scenario: ordering bubble tea via Workbuddy using a "Meituan Life Assistant" skill. The process encountered multiple hurdles: high "skill" usage costs (exceeding daily free credits), and most importantly, while a payment was successfully initiated, the AI purchased an incorrect product (a mismatched group-buy coupon instead of the desired drink). This highlights the current limitation: the **AI Card only solves the payment step**. The broader challenge lies in the **AI agent's execution chain**—accurately understanding intent, navigating third-party platforms, selecting the right product, and ensuring proper fulfillment. The payment succeeded, but the purchase failed to meet the user's need. In conclusion, the WeChat AI Exclusive Card is a cautious, early-step experiment in AI commerce. It provides a secure, user-controlled payment method for agent interactions but is not yet capable of reliable, end-to-end complex purchases. For now, it's best used for low-value, low-risk digital services with careful user verification at each step. The vision of AI handling complete shopping tasks remains a work in progress.
