「Buy Now, Pay Never.」

撰文:吴天一,DeThings

「Buy Now,Pay Never(现在购买,永远不需要付款)」这句话可能是 PayFi 最有代表性的一句话,指使用加密货币进行,利用借贷平台的利息支付消费。。此前在 ABS 亚洲区块链高峰会上,Solana 基金会总裁 Lily Liu 首次提出了这一概念,并描绘了 PayFi 的具体轮廓。

创作者可以通过预支未来的收入,来资助他们的下一个项目,这在传统金融世界中是难以实现的。公司可以通过加密货币快速获得应收款项的现金流、减少等待时间,这是一个巨大的市场。

PayFi 这一创新观念中,快速支付和低交易成本固然重要,但更关键的是技术应该启用 10 倍效用的用例。 Lily Liu 表示,「Solana 具备高性能、资本流动性和人才流动性的优势,是唯一能够实现这些效用的区块链。」

PayFi 的可能性

如果我们回顾过去几十年,支付生态系统的增长很大程度上受到融资机制的推动。例如,信用卡每年为 16 万亿美元的商户支付提供支持,是融资如何推动广泛采用和实用性的典范。贸易融资每年促进 10 万亿美元的 B2B 支付,凸显了融资在全球贸易中的关键作用。 4 万亿美元的预付资金,支持汇款和全球结算。如今,每 6 个家庭中就有 1 个依赖汇款支付。

当视角来到加密货币,如果没有支付用例,加密市场会面临流动性不足的问题。同样,如果没有融资,互联网原生货币的效用和采用也会受到限制。PayFi 或许正是为解决这些限制而存在的。

作为 Web3 支付与 DeFi 融合的产物,PayFi 首先体现了货币的时间价值,指在时间的流逝中,货币的价值会发生变化,货币现在拥有的价值高于未来拥有的价值,因为需要考虑通货膨胀以及投资收益的问题。

其次,PayFi 通过现实世界资产代币化(RWA)的逻辑,将支付场景及业务流程代币化,搬至链上,以捕获现实世界支付场景的货币时间价值。这一创新不仅能够实现比特币白皮书中的愿景——无须可信第三方介入的点对点电子现金支付,还能够借助稳定币作为交易媒介与记账单位,最终在高性能区块链网络上实现高效、快速的全球支付。

PayFi 的业务模式多样,包括支付代币本身、支付融资 RWA、融合 DeFi 的 Web3 支付创新业务以及将传统支付业务逻辑搬到链上。其中,代币化美债作为 PayFi 的一个重要应用,已经展现出其巨大的市场潜力,市场规模持续攀升。

除了作为支付交易媒介,PayFi 还能够在 DeFi 场景中提供额外的资本效率实用性和可组合性。例如,通过 PayFi 支付融资 RWA 的逻辑,用 DeFi 借贷的资金来解决现实支付场景中的需求,实现支付融资收益率的上链。这一模式有望将万亿级的支付交易量上链,更好地优化货币的时间价值,推动稳定币的采用。

「类 PayFi」项目正在做什么?

作为一个新兴概念,PayFi 目前还未出现完全契合其内涵的项目,但有一些项目已经初具这一概念的雏形,得以管中窥豹。

Rain.Fi 正在通过为由 USDC 支持的企业卡提供结算流动性,企业资金将资产质押到保险库中,保险库会设定其信用额度,并在每个结算期结束时在链上清算资产以自动偿还余额。越来越多的公司在卡支付行业利用数字资产进行创新。

Rain.Fi 允许抵押或先买后付,它允许用户仅支付一小部分前期成本即可购买高价 NFT。剩余金额可以借入。利用数字资产作为抵押品的点对点借贷平台,通过这种方式,Rainfi 有效地提高了流动性效率、可访问性、可组合性和透明度等方面。

Arf 则通过为金融机构提供链上流动性解决方案来改变跨境支付的方式。该计划促进了 24/7 即时、透明且低成本的基于 USDC 的结算,消除了全球预存资金账户的需要。跨境支付融资具有极高的资本效率和高度可扩展性。Arf 的链上交易量最近超过了 16 亿美元,成为增长最快的稳定币用例之一。

此外, BSOS 通过将企业资源规划平台与链上流动性相结合来创建供应链现实世界资产,提供较短期限的融资选择,即使所需融资金额较小。Zeebu 使全球电信公司能够交换漫游发票并在链上结算。

从类似项目中我们可以看到 PayFi 未来的可能性:将万亿级的支付量上链,更好地优化货币的时间价值。提供可持续的风险调整收益率,从个位数的无风险收益率一直到私人信贷领域具有吸引力的两位数收益率。以极低的系统性风险迅速扩大规模。由于支付融资交易中基础资产的短期性质,在结构正确的情况下可以提供高流动性。

US CFTC Launches Broad Investigation into Polymarket, Is the Prediction Market Party Coming to an End?

The U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) is conducting a broad investigation into the prediction market platform Polymarket, focusing on its business practices including social media promotions. This follows a bipartisan letter from U.S. senators urging the CFTC to probe alleged fraudulent marketing tactics used to promote gambling-like products. The action coincides with a period of explosive growth for the prediction market sector, driven by events like the World Cup, with platforms like Kalshi and Robinhood reporting record trading volumes and revenue. The investigation signals a potential end to the sector's unregulated expansion and may lead to clearer federal oversight, particularly regarding investor protection and distinguishing prediction markets from traditional sports betting. The CFTC's move has also intensified a jurisdictional conflict with multiple U.S. states (including Kentucky and New York), which have sued platforms like Polymarket and Kalshi, accusing them of operating illegal sports betting and threatening state gambling tax revenues. Furthermore, the CME Group has sued the CFTC, challenging its approval of certain prediction market products. The report also highlights the political and capital interests intertwined with the industry. Donald Trump Jr. holds advisory and investment roles in both Kalshi and Polymarket, and the Trump administration has previously emphasized federal regulatory authority over these markets. The CFTC's investigation into Polymarket is framed as a step towards formalizing the industry's regulatory landscape, moving it from a phase of "wild growth" towards a more structured future.

U.S. CFTC Launches Extensive Investigation into Polymarket, Is the Prediction Market Frenzy Season Cooling Down?

The U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) has launched a broad investigation into the prediction market platform Polymarket, focusing on its business practices including social media activities. This follows a bipartisan letter from U.S. senators urging the CFTC to probe allegations of paid influencer false marketing and fraudulent promotion of gambling-like products to American users. The investigation comes as the prediction market sector experiences explosive growth, largely driven by the World Cup. Weekly trading volumes have hit record highs, exceeding $14.4 billion, with platforms like Kalshi and Robinhood's new venture seeing significant activity. Major firms like Meta are also showing interest in the space. This regulatory scrutiny signals a potential end to the sector's "wild growth" phase. The CFTC's move also highlights an escalating jurisdictional conflict between federal regulators and state authorities. Over a dozen states, including Kentucky and New York, have sued platforms like Polymarket and Kalshi, accusing them of operating illegal sports betting, which threatens state gambling tax revenues. The CFTC is countersuing to assert its exclusive federal jurisdiction over these "event contracts" as derivatives. Furthermore, the CFTC's approval of Kalshi's Bitcoin perpetual futures contract has sparked a lawsuit from traditional exchange CME, alleging regulatory overreach. The political and capital landscape is intricate, with Donald Trump Jr. holding advisory roles and investments in both Kalshi and Polymarket. This connects capital, political influence, and regulatory bodies, suggesting the current investigation may be a step toward formalizing the industry's rules rather than halting its progress.
