4000万美元的生命线?Circle与Lighter的收入分成协议为何可能重燃LIT

Abstract

Lighter(LIT)永续合约DEX已与Circle达成协议,将分享平台上USDC存款产生的利息收入。分析师认为,这笔交易可能为其生态系统和原生代币带来关键支撑和看涨动力。据估算,该协议每年可带来3000万至4000万美元收入。此前,Lighter的交易量和未平仓合约自2025年底以来大幅下滑,收入也显著缩水。这一合作有望通过降低交易者资金费率间接促进回购机制,并吸引更多用户。消息公布后,LIT短时上涨10%,2月累计涨幅达20%。市场观察者认为,若趋势延续,LIT可能进一步反弹。

据悉,Lighter [LIT] 永续合约DEX已与Circle就平台USDC存款的利息收入达成收入分成协议。分析师认为,这可能是其生态和原生代币的关键生命线与看涨催化剂。

根据加密风投公司Syncracy Capital联合创始人Ryan Watkins的预测,该协议每年可带来3000-4000万美元的收入。Watkins补充道:

"这项协议令人兴奋的原因不在于它会直接推动更多回购(但会间接促进),而是为交易者提供了补贴——他们现在只需支付更低的持仓资金费率。这有望提升未平仓合约量。"

对Lighter的潜在影响

自2025年底第二阶段挖矿结束以来,Lighter的空投农民数量减少,导致永续合约交易量和未平仓合约量(OI)下滑。

DeFiLlama数据显示,该DEX的周永续合约交易量从2025年11月的约3000亿美元下降至2026年2月的不足500亿美元——过去两个月内缩水6倍。

随着增长放缓,月收入也从11月的2400万美元近乎腰斩至1月的1300万美元。截至2月上旬,Lighter仅产生170万美元收入,凸显其收入流承受更大压力。

由于该平台也像Hyperliquid一样进行代币回购,此项收入分成协议可能有助于增强代币收益和交易费返利。

需要说明的是,Circle通过将USDC储备金投资于美国国债获得利息收入。

对于在Coinbase上流通的USDC,该交易所获得USDC储备金利息收入的100%。此外,它还获取其平台外USDC收入的50%,据报道,该协议仅在2024年就为Coinbase带来超过9亿美元收入。

其他平台也纷纷推动获取类似收入流,或选择发行自家稳定币以独占全部利息收入。这正是Hyperliquid推出原生稳定币USDH的原因。

尽管如此,截至发稿时,Lighter与Circle分成协议的具体细节尚未公开。但一些市场观察人士推测,该协议可能是平台近期宣布交易费返利措施背后的原因。

Syncracy Capital的Daniel Cheung认为,LIT可能在当前价位被"严重低估":

"永续合约市场的规模将超出所有人预期,$LIT仅以HYPE市值5%的估值水平承载其10%的费用收入,显然被严重低估。"

LIT能否延续反弹?

消息公布后LIT应声上涨10%,使其2月累计涨幅达到20%。

若上涨趋势延续,在触及1.7美元关口时,反弹幅度可能达33%。下行方面,趋势线支撑位将是关键观察点。

Uncovering the Truth About Agent Commerce, Payments, and Infrastructure

Decoding Agent Commerce, Payments, and Infrastructure: The Reality Over the past year, I've been building infrastructure for the Agent economy, engaging with major players like Stripe, Visa, Coinbase, Google, and dozens of startups. A clear conclusion emerges: true, large-scale demand does not yet exist. Startups face structural challenges. Data points illustrate this gap. Stripe's Agent commerce platform has over 1,000 merchants but only single-digit transacting agents. Visa's Agent payment token requires 9-month KYC and a $250M revenue threshold, accessible only to giants like Amazon. On-chain analysis reveals actual daily Agent transaction volume is around $17k, half of which are test transactions. The article analyzes four potential markets: **1. Agent-to-Merchant (A2M):** Current AI shopping UX is often inferior to traditional e-commerce for visual, comparison-heavy purchases (clothing, electronics). Chat interfaces are a step back. Real merchant interest is defensive "Agent Engine Optimization," fearing future obsolescence, not current demand. Potential exists in high-frequency, low-decision purchases (e.g., food delivery) or simplifying terrible UX (complex checkouts, non-native shoppers), but these require massive consumer distribution channels dominated by giants like DoorDash and Amazon. **2. Agent-to-API (A2A):** Developers already have subscriptions and billing for core APIs (compute, data). The argument for micro-payments via crypto for sub-dollar API calls is addressed by pre-paid balances today. The deeper issue is supplier resistance; major SaaS firms rely on enterprise contracts, not fractional cent pricing. Opportunity lies in the long tail of niche services, but this is a smaller market catering to developers, a historically low-paying group. **3. Agent-to-Agent (A2A):** This remains a theoretical long-term vision with near-zero current transaction volume. It involves unique challenges: discovery, trust, negotiation, dispute resolution. When it materializes, it will require a fundamentally new settlement infrastructure for high-speed, variable-value, multi-party transactions. It's a real long-term bet, but not the current market. **4. Agent-to-Finance (A2F):** This is the only category with existing, paying demand. Integrating AI into financial workflows (trading, portfolio management) is a natural evolution and enables new capabilities like autonomous rebalancing. However, competition favors incumbents with regulatory licenses, compliance infrastructure, and existing client relationships. **The Real Issue:** Why is infrastructure still being built? Incumbents can afford long-term bets, and payment companies see every problem as a nail for their payment hammer. However, payment is just one piece. The core challenge is *coordination*—orchestrating work between Agents and humans, verifying outcomes, and settling results. Payment is part of settlement, which is part of coordination. Companies that solve the coordination problem will subsume payments, not the other way around. Startups lack the infinite runway of giants and must find today's real market, which, after a year of exploration, lies outside these four categories—in an area with real, growing, and underserved activity.
