本文带大家简单回顾下过去几年的几个主要稳定币流派,然后讲讲最新几个好玩的或是有希望杀出重围的新稳定币项目。

最近稳定币再次站上了风口浪尖。

“”

原因不外乎BUSD的发行机构Paxos被NYDFS查水表,结果一纸政令说“无法在全面监管的基础上安全稳健地运营 BUSD”导致BUSD直接被停发,Binance无奈表示未来不会使用BUSD作为主要交易对,算是“认怂”。

“”

这件事也被看成是Binance做大做强之后遭遇的“美国铁拳”事件之一,树大招风有时候就是这么无奈,Binance在BUSD之后会用什么不得而知,有消息说已经有机构与Binance接触拟合作推出替代BUSD的新稳定币,且不一定是锚定美元,还是让人有点好奇

“”

事件也再次引发了圈内对稳定币的关注度。毕竟自USDT诞生以来,稳定币已然在圈内生态位占据了越来越多的重要性,无论是圈内各大主流Token的流动性,还是最有希望破圈的支付领域,稳定币都是绕不开的那最为重要的一环。

“”

本文就带大家简单回顾下过去几年的几个主要稳定币流派,然后讲讲最新几个好玩的或是有希望杀出重围的新稳定币项目。

“”

一、稳定币发展简史

“”

过去几年圈内习惯把稳定币分成三大流派:

“”

>法币抵押型

“”

>加密资产抵押型

“”

>无抵押类型(也叫算法稳定币)

“”

法币抵押型最简单明了,没啥好讲的,从最早的USDT到后来居上的USDC以及这次时间风口浪尖的BUSD都是,比较好玩的是USDT过去几年饱受各方质疑,结果现在看却是最稳的一个。

“”

加密资产抵押型的发展史其实比较有趣,通常大家认为最早的是MakerDAO做的DAI,但其实圈内老人都知道,BTS 2014年就在玩这一套,只不过失败了,后来时隔多年,DeFi火了之后,DAI这种加密资产抵押型稳定币才再次进入人们的视线。

“”

加密资产抵押型算是相对Crpyto Native的东西,也尝试过许多的方向,几个代表型如下:

“”

1. BTS - 超额抵押BTS,生成bitcny或是bitUSD,生不逢时,早了好几年,卒;

“”

2. MakerDAO - 超额抵押ETH,生成DAI,算是加密资产抵押型代表作了,虽然现在已然不在纯粹;

“”

3. SNX - sUSD也是Defi Summer杀出来的加密抵押型资产,吸取了BTS两倍抵押容易爆的教训,我来个6倍抵押!果然从来就没爆过。

“”

DeFi Summer时候类似的项目很多,比如当时号称算稳三杰(其实都不是真的算稳,而是偏加密抵押型)的Fei、Float、Reflexer之类,篇幅关系就不展开讲了。

“”

无抵押类型自然就是大家常说的算稳了,最旁氏也是最FOMO的东西,当年还有过一个短暂的算稳Summer,AMPL开创了Rebase纪元,然后ESD接力,紧接着BAS,FOMO一段时间后全部失败,然而我们并不放弃,我们找到了Luna,UST终于成为第一个“成功”的算稳,市值200亿,币圈前十,然而算稳天生的脆弱性导致大如Luna,也可以短短几天轰然倒塌。

“”

二、活下来的稳定币

“”

法币抵押型只要不遭遇铁锤不会担心生存问题,算稳则是基本全军覆没,目前活下来的几个有特色的分别是下面这几个:

“”

1. DAI(MakerDAO)

虽然是龙头,但后来经历312黑天鹅事件之后因为担心清算风险,硬是把DAI的抵押物成分改成了USDC占最大比例,丢了不少印象分,从MKR的价格你也能看出一二。

“”

2. sUSD(SNX)

“”

前几年一直在寻求发展,但无奈合成资产这个赛道始终是叫好不叫座,无论是股票还是大宗外汇等都没能取得多大进展,因为忌惮Sec的铁拳还把股票市场给彻底关停。但全局债务这个创新确实是圈内一大亮点,现在GMX和GNS背后的机制其实都有SNX的影子。

“”

随着L2的崛起,SNX Perp以及原子交换的上线,以及配合Curve的无滑点交换,sUSD现在的作用也是越来越大了。

“”

3. LUSD(Liquity)

“”

你可以把它想成是纯净版的MakerDAO,依旧坚持ETH抵押生成LUSD,可惜名气不行,始终没啥流量和应用场景,一个字:难。

“”

4. MIM (Abracadabra)

“”

你可以把这东西理解成多链LSD+MakerDAO,MIM算是最早一批LSD概念的Token,拿来生成稳定币Mim的必须都是生息资产,比如xSushi,veCrv等等,颇有现在Ldo+Curve这种释放stETH流动性的既视感,同时人家还多链部署。

“”

当时算是个不错的创新,可惜熊市遭受重创,创始人Daniele的Defi三件套风光不再,目前也只能是个“苟延残喘”的地步。

“”

5. Frax

“”

算是本轮最成功的稳定币,开创了加密抵押+算稳的结合体模式,俗称“部分抵押算稳或者半算稳”,在V2的AMO,Fraxlend借代,Curve War,以及最近LSD火了之后的frxETH与sfrxETH的多重加持之下,Frax走出了一条与众不同的DeFi矩阵之路,算的上前途可期。

“”

然而目前哪怕是活下来的这一批稳定币,也依旧面临相对尴尬的局面,那就是其应用场景的缺失,基本所有CEX里你都不会见到这些稳定币,DEX这边,哪怕是最成功的DAI,sUSD,Frax你也基本上见不到他们的交易对(除了和其他稳定币的交易池),基本上你持有这些稳定币想要干其他事情的时候,都得去Curve先换成USDC或是USDT,然后再买

“”

所以无论是链上还是链下,目前USDT和USDC的统治依旧是如日中天

“”

三、未来值得期待的几个稳定币

“”

1. crvUSD (Curve)

“”

做稳定币Curve算是最“名正言顺”的,毕竟它最早就是个稳定币的DEX,现在有了越来越多的Peg资产,V2的新曲线,以及与SNX等协议的合作之后,Curve的生态越做越大,一边把脚伸到了Uni那边,一边筹划着稳定币crvUSD的上线。

“”

crvUSD一不怕清算,因为有那个反向Uni V3的LLAMA清算机制,抵押品一边跌一边帮你卖,所以不会出现312MakerDAO那种尴尬的局面;

“”

二不怕没地儿用,因为抵押品和crvUSD肯定会有个池子,天然就是一个交易对,至于流动性,你看看Curve那恐怖的TVL,这是你需要担心的问题么?

“”

2. GHO (AAVE)

“”

AAVE做稳定币也勉强算“名正言顺”,毕竟是最大的借代平台,上面各种大蓝筹,资本效率需要进一步的释放,稳定币就是最好的方案。

“”

AAVE没有Curve那边流动性与交易对的优势,不过他们引入了促进者“facilitator”这个东西,一下子把稳定币的灵活性给提了上来,除了超额抵押之外,还可以支持RWA,信用借代,Delta Neutral等策略,且彼此风险隔离,算是另一种方向的探索。

“”

3. dpxUSD

“”

这个算是一个小众的稳定币,也还没上线,Dopex是Arbitrum上最火的期权协议之一,他们近期打算拿Rdpx这个Token开发一个dpxUSD的稳定币,模仿frax,由USDC和rdPX共同铸造dpxUSD,75%USDC+25%的rDPX。

“”

不过据说最近迫于监管压力,把稳定币暂停了,做合成资产了,风格差不多,比如第一个ETH合成资产dpxETH就用75%的ETH+25%的rDPX,怎么保证挂钩呢(万一里面的rDPX跌的妈妈都不认识了咋办?),老本行这时候帮上忙了,每次铸造dpxETH时候除了用ETH+rDPX之外,还得单独买一份rdpx与ETH汇率的看跌期权,相当于买了个保险。

“”

这个虽说不是稳定币,但只是因为监管的原因,相信风头过了之后,我们还是有希望看到这种拿期权做保险的“半算法稳定币”的。

Both Suffer Massive Losses Exceeding $90 Billion, Which Is in Greater Peril: Strategy or Bitmine?

Facing massive paper losses exceeding $90 billion each amidst a sharp market downturn, "Digital Asset Treasury" (DAT) giants Strategy and Bitmine find themselves in a precarious position, but with different underlying risks. Strategy, heavily invested in Bitcoin (BTC), faces significant financial strain. Its strategy relies heavily on debt, including convertible notes and preferred stock (STRC) requiring substantial dividend payments. With its cash reserves dwindling and BTC offering no staking yield for cash flow, Strategy's high leverage makes it vulnerable. A continued price decline could force asset sales to meet obligations, potentially creating a negative feedback loop. Its market value has already fallen sharply. In contrast, Bitmine, an Ethereum (ETH) holder, appears on firmer financial ground. It primarily funds its purchases through equity offerings (like ATM programs), avoiding debt pressure. It also generates income by staking a large portion of its ETH holdings. While not immune to market drops and shareholder dilution concerns, Bitmine maintains more flexibility, recently announcing a new preferred share offering to raise further capital. The core divergence lies in their financing: Bitmine uses equity (investor money), while Strategy uses debt (borrowed money). Consequently, Bitmine currently faces less immediate liquidity pressure than Strategy, which must navigate the dual challenge of servicing debt/dividends and a declining core asset (BTC) price.

Where the AI Bubble Really Is: Which Layer of Players Are Naked

AI Bubble: Where It Really Is and Who's Swimming Naked This analysis dissects the AI industry not as a single entity but as a five-layer pyramid, arguing that bubbles are concentrated in specific tiers, not uniformly distributed. **Key Distinction from the 2000 Dot-com Bubble:** Unlike 2000, where companies had stock prices before revenue, today's leading AI players have massive, contract-backed revenue driving their valuations. Core infrastructure demand is real, with every GPU running at full capacity for paying customers. **The Five-Layer Pyramid & Bubble Assessment:** * **L0 (Fab/Manufacturing) & Top L4 (Leading AI Apps): NO BUBBLE.** Companies like TSMC, NVIDIA, major cloud providers (Microsoft, Google, Meta, Amazon), and top AI labs have real revenues and orders. Supply is tightly constrained by TSMC's disciplined capacity control and physical limits like power/land for data centers, preventing a supply glut. * **L1 (Memory): BATTLEGROUND.** Sky-high HBM margins could signal a new structural cycle or a classic "boom before bust." The oligopoly of three major players may enforce supply discipline, making this a high-stakes bet. * **L2 (Interconnect/Optical Modules): BUBBLE TERRITORY.** Companies like Lumentum and AAOI have seen stock surges (4-10x) far outpacing revenue growth. This hardware segment has lower physical barriers to expansion than fabs, allowing speculation. It mirrors the 2000 bubble's epicenter—optics. * **L3 (Infrastructure/"GPU Landlords"): VULNERABLE.** GPU leasing companies profit from the current compute shortage but own no long-term moat. Their business model relies on a temporary bottleneck that will ease as big tech expands and new tech (e.g., potential space-based data centers) emerges. * **L4 Long Tail (VC-backed Startups): STRONG BUBBLE SIGNALS.** VC funding concentration in AI is twice that of the 1999 peak. Many startups with little revenue use the valuation logic of successful giants to justify their own, creating high risk of a "valuation crunch" when funding dries up. **Critical Risks to Monitor:** 1. **GPU Depreciation & Accounting:** Companies extending the assumed useful life of GPUs artificially boost profits. The true economic life depends on future generational leaps from NVIDIA. 2. **"GPU Credit" & Off-Balance-Sheet Leverage:** Emerging structures where shell companies borrow to buy GPUs and lease them out (with chipmakers sometimes investing) move debt off major balance sheets. This echoes the "vendor financing" of 2000 and the securitization risks of 2008, though currently small-scale. 3. **TSMC Abandoning Caution:** If the primary supply bottleneck (TSMC's conservative capacity planning) breaks, runaway supply could trigger a bust. 4. **Algorithmic Efficiency Breakthrough:** A major leap in software efficiency could drastically reduce the need for raw compute hardware, undermining the investment thesis. **Conclusion:** The AI boom is expensive and has frothy areas, but its core is underpinned by real demand and physical supply constraints. The bubble risk is layered: most present in optical components, GPU leasing, and the long-tail startup ecosystem, while the foundational chip manufacturing and leading application layers remain relatively solid—for now.

Standing in the Light: A Comprehensive Guide to the Optical Module and CPO Supply Chain

"Standing in the Light: Understanding the Optical Module and CPO Industry Chain" This article analyzes the critical role of optical communication technology, specifically optical modules and Co-Packaged Optics (CPO), as the "nervous system" for modern AI data centers. With exponential growth in AI computational demands (e.g., NVIDIA's Vera Rubin architecture), traditional electrical interconnects using copper cables face severe bottlenecks in bandwidth, power consumption, and signal integrity over distance. The core function of an optical module is to act as a "translator," converting electrical signals from chips into optical signals for transmission over fiber (and vice-versa). Key internal components include lasers, modulators, photodetectors, drivers, and DSP chips. The industry is currently transitioning from 800G to 1.6T modules. However, the future lies in CPO. This next-generation technology integrates the optical engine directly with the switch ASIC/XPU on the same package substrate, drastically reducing power consumption (by ~3.5x according to NVIDIA), overcoming bandwidth density limits, and minimizing signal attenuation compared to traditional pluggable modules. Key challenges for CPO include advanced packaging capacity (dominated by TSMC), thermal management, repairability, and standardization. The article details the broader technology landscape, including Near-Packaged Optics (NPO, a pragmatic intermediate step), Linear-drive Pluggable Optics (LPO), Optical I/O (OIO for chip-level integration), and Optical Circuit Switches (OCS). A comprehensive CPO industry chain is mapped, highlighting shifting power dynamics: * **Architecture Definers:** NVIDIA, Broadcom, and Marvell now hold greater influence. * **Advanced Packaging & Manufacturing:** TSMC is central; Fabrinet is a key EMS player. * **Lasers ("The Heart"):** A strategic bottleneck. EML lasers are led by Lumentum and Coherent (both receiving major NVIDIA investments). CW lasers, favored for CPO/silicon photonics, see strong Chinese players like Source Photonics and Sicoya. * **Silicon Photonics Chips:** The mainstream path for CPO engines, with key players like Broadcom, Intel, Marvell, and China's Accelink. * **Fiber Connectivity Components:** A major new, high-growth market created by CPO, including Fiber Array Units (FAU), Polarization-Maintaining Fiber (PMF), and MPO connectors. Companies like Tianfu Communication and US Conec are leaders. * **Fiber & Cable:** Experiencing a super-cycle (e.g., Corning, Yangtze Optical Fiber). * **PCB/Substrates:** Requiring advanced materials (e.g., Shengyi Tech). * **DSP & SerDes:** Functions are integrated into switch ASICs in the CPO era (e.g., Broadcom, Astera Labs). * **Optical Module Makers:** Transitioning from standalone module suppliers to providers of optical engines and NPO/LPO solutions while riding the current pluggable boom (e.g., Zhongji Innolight, Eoptolink). The investment timeline is segmented: Short-term (2026-2027) features the "last feast" for pluggable modules and CPO's initial rollout. Medium-term (2027-2029) will see CPO expand and NPO peak. Long-term (2029-2032+) involves CPO/OIO penetration into intra-rack scaling. In conclusion, optical interconnects are fundamental to AI infrastructure. The competitive landscape sees US firms leading in architecture and high-end chips, TSMC in advanced packaging, and Chinese firms holding strong positions in modules, connectivity components, CW lasers, and fiber/cable. The future belongs to companies that can navigate the technological shift from "selling shovels" (modules) to "building highways" (CPO/OIO infrastructure).
