InfoFi遇冷:规则升级、收益缩水与平台转型困局

marsbitОпубликовано 2025-09-08Обновлено 2025-09-09

如果我们已迎来 InfoFi 时代的终结,或是正一步步逼近这个节点,我并不会感到意外。

自 InfoFi 兴起以来,许多人借此赚取了可观的收益,有人累计赚了 5 位数,有人甚至赚到了 6 位数。但如今,一些信号值得我们高度警惕。

门槛规则变更

严格来说,我并不认为 Kaito 这次升级完全是件坏事,它或许能有效杜绝大量账号用 AI 生成劣质内容 「刷量」 的行为,同时提升内容质量。

但升级后,不仅小号受到冲击,许多大号也未能幸免。这导致大量依赖 Kaito 的用户选择离开,因为升级后,他们几乎没有机会再通过平台赚到钱。

 Capital Launchpad

对此,一些项目方选择取消门槛,以吸引小号入驻。这恰恰说明:在大多数情况下,小号群体是至关重要的。

我的看法是:Kaito 似乎对这次升级的方向感到困惑,而且很多项目方显然不喜欢这种 「门槛限制」。不过不可否认的是,在过去几个月里,Kaito 的表现一直相当出色。


代币分配方案拉胯

对于内容创作者(yappers)而言,如今常规的 0.5%-1% 代币分配比例已远远不够,因为这些代币上线时的估值往往很低。

早期,有些账号通过 1-2 个月的推广活动就能赚到 4-5 位数收益;而现在,即便是参与 3-6 个月的活动,也只能赚 3-4 位数,这让很多人感到心灰意冷。

甚至连头部账号,即便产出了优质内容,也很难赚到可观的 4 位数收益。

这对依赖 InfoFi 的创作者来说为何是坏消息?在 InfoFi 兴起之前,许多创作者作为品牌大使或 KOL 推广内容,就能获得不错的收入。而现在 Kaito 上的项目方给出的报酬,根本无法与外部合作相提并论 。鉴于这一事实,越来越多创作者选择离开 InfoFi 平台,也就不足为奇了。


「Capital Launchpad」 主导地位凸显

7 月 22 日,Kaito 的 「Capital Launchpad」正式上线,首个上线项目是 Espresso,随后有更多项目陆续入驻。

 Capital Launchpad

对 Kaito 而言,这无疑是个不错的产品,但我也有几点担忧:

  • 通过 Kaito 首次代币发行的项目,至今没有一个在公开市场上线;
  • 这些项目均未公布上线日期;
  • 大多数项目的估值过高,且代币解锁方案对投资者不友好。

我的补充观点:Kaito 最初是专为 InfoFi 打造的平台,后来才决定增加额外的平台功能(如 Launchpad),这本身是很棒的尝试。但最近,越来越多项目选择入驻 「Capital Launchpad」,而非参与 「创作者排行榜」。对于一个 InfoFi 平台来说,这种趋势显然不太乐观。

不过,这只是我观察到的明显现象,似乎没多少人对此提出质疑。


项目方更倾向于与 KOL 直接合作,而非通过 Kaito 平台

这一点很明显:项目方已不再那么热衷于参与 InfoFi 合作了。

最近,Zachxbt 发布了一个谷歌表格,列出了一批从某项目方获得报酬的账号。我提及此事并非因为惊讶,而是因为这些报酬金额相当可观,尤其是与 Kaito 「创作者排行榜」 上的项目相比。

 Capital Launchpad

我相信,这已经让不少人意识到:除了 InfoFi,还有很多赚钱的方式。而人性的现实是 「想尽办法多赚钱」,因此我认为这对 Kaito 构成了直接竞争。

Kelp DAO's $400 Million Bad Debt Was Covered, But at a $12 Billion Cost to Aave

On May 26th, Kelp DAO successfully transferred its final batch of rsETH, completing the 37-day process of fully backing rsETH 1:1 after a security incident. However, the resolution came at a significant cost to Aave. The protocol's TVL plummeted by over $12 billion in the following month. Furthermore, a separate legal battle over 30,766 frozen ETH continues in court, posing ongoing reputational risk. The recovery was enabled by an unprecedented, one-time coalition dubbed "DeFi United," involving major contributions from Aave's founder, treasury, Consensys, Mantle, and others. Despite this, the event triggered a major outflow of funds, with whales like Justin Sun moving capital to competitors like Spark. Aave's path to regaining its position relies heavily on the successful execution of its multi-pronged strategy. Its new V4 protocol, designed for open, heterogeneous asset markets, faces delays due to internal governance disputes. Meanwhile, the V3 version remains the core revenue generator, and the permissioned Horizon fork is targeting institutional RWA (Real-World Assets) growth—a segment less impacted by the rsETH incident but dependent on traditional finance adoption timelines. The key takeaway is that while the immediate bad debt was covered, Aave paid a steep price in lost trust and capital. Recovering market share depends on accelerating V4's rollout and advancing its institutional RWA offerings, both of which face external and internal hurdles. The "DeFi United" safety net is unlikely to be replicable for future crises.

TechFlow Intelligence Report: Xiaomi Announces 200 Billion HKD Stock Buyback Plan, Spot Gold Falls Nearly 1%

TechFlow Report: Xiaomi announced a HK$200 billion stock buyback plan, while spot gold fell nearly 1%. A wider range of tech headlines includes Google unveiling its powerful video editing model Gemini Omni and the original "Attention is All You Need" authors advocating for a move beyond Transformer architecture. In other AI news, IBM reported its first successful use of a quantum computer to train an AI model, and Qwen3.5 released uncensored local model versions. The crypto/Web3 sector saw discussions on opaque stablecoin products and DEX fee changes. Major tech companies are under scrutiny: Uber's COO publicly questioned the ROI of AI investments, Motorola was accused of hijacking Amazon app links for affiliate codes, and Google faced criticism for using web data to fuel its AI. U.S. markets are focused on high S&P 500 valuations (31.8x P/E) and an intense concentration of capital in semiconductor stocks, with warnings about the sustainability of the AI data center boom. Geopolitical tensions, featuring simultaneous U.S. airstrikes on Iran and peace talks, caused significant oil price volatility. Other notable developments include Ferrari's first pure EV priced at 4.35 million yuan and Boston Dynamics' Atlas robot learning soccer from videos. The underlying theme suggests the AI narrative is shifting from boundless potential to requiring tangible results, while traditional geopolitical risks remain a powerful force in markets.

Coin & Stock Barometer: Bitcoin Miner MARA Holdings Spends Over $860,000 on Bulletproof Vehicle Services for Executives; Bitmine Included in Preliminary List for FTSE Russell 1000 Index (May 19)

Crypto Market Wrap & Key Corporate Updates (May 19) The crypto market saw a decline followed by a minor rebound, while U.S. crypto-related stocks fell broadly. In corporate news: **MARA Holdings**, a Bitcoin miner, disclosed spending over $869,000 on vehicle ballistic armor services for its CEO and CFO under its security program. The board cited higher risks associated with the company's public disclosure of holding substantial Bitcoin assets. According to BitcoinTreasuries.NET, Elon Musk's **SpaceX and Tesla** collectively hold 30,221 BTC ($2.3B), which would rank them as the fifth-largest public company holder if combined. **DDC Enterprise Limited** increased its Bitcoin holdings by 200 BTC, bringing its total to 2,583 BTC. The firm stated it plans to continue accumulating BTC based on liquidity, not short-term price movements. Bitcoin treasury company **Nakamoto** announced a 1-for-40 reverse stock split to regain compliance with Nasdaq's minimum bid price requirement. The company reported a Q1 2026 net loss of $238.8M, partly due to a $102.5M unrealized loss on its Bitcoin holdings. **Tether** acquired SoftBank's stake in **Twenty One Capital (XXI)**, increasing its control. Tether's CEO expressed strengthened confidence in XXI's long-term Bitcoin strategy. Fundstrat's **Tom Lee** stated that **Bitmine (BMNR)** has been included in the preliminary list for the FTSE Russell 1000 Index. Concurrently, two new wallets suspected to be linked to Bitmine withdrew 60,000 ETH ($126M) from Bitgo and Kraken. Solana treasury company **Solmate Infrastructure** announced a registered direct offering of shares to raise approximately $11.4 million. **AI Financial**, a WLFI treasury company, reported a Q1 2026 net loss of $271.5M and raised substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern, partly due to unrealized losses on its WLFI token holdings. **SUI Group** disclosed it holds over 108.7 million SUI tokens (~$115M), with its market cap to net asset value ratio at 0.91x. *Disclaimer: This summary is for informational purposes only and does not constitute investment advice.*

China's AI Fronts: From Yan'an to Midway

This article analyzes the competitive landscape of China's AI industry through a dual-front war analogy: the "Eastern Front" of business model competition and the "Western Front" of global strategic positioning. **The Eastern Front: The Scramble for Supply Lines and Monetization** The "Eastern Front" examines the contrasting strategies of three Chinese tech giants—Tencent, Alibaba, and ByteDance—in the face of AI's high marginal costs. Tencent integrates AI as a catalyst within its existing ecosystems (advertising, gaming, cloud) for monetization, prioritizing high-value scenarios over user growth. Alibaba bets on a full-stack, self-developed approach from chips to applications, aiming to control costs and ecosystem, though this requires immense patience and resources. ByteDance, with Doubao as its flagship, pursues a traditional traffic-driven, "super app" strategy but faces severe monetization challenges as its massive user base incurs unsustainable operational costs. The central challenge for all is building a reliable "supply line" (sustainable funding/profit) and achieving efficient monetization, moving beyond being mere "token factories." **The Western Front: "Preserving Land" vs. "Preserving People"** The "Western Front" frames a global strategic divergence. The U.S. model ("preserving land") focuses on closed-source, high-premium models (e.g., Anthropic) targeting lucrative enterprise markets. China's strategy ("preserving people") leverages open-source models (e.g., Alibaba's Qwen, DeepSeek) and extremely low pricing to attract global developers and capture long-tail markets, akin to a "surround the cities from the countryside" approach. The goal is to make Chinese models the default infrastructure, locking in future ecosystem value. However, the critical test is whether this open-source ecosystem can achieve a commercial闭环, converting developer adoption into tangible revenue (e.g., via cloud services), and bridging the monetization gap with Western models that charge for value, not just tokens. **Conclusion: The Long March from Factory to Brand** The article concludes that China's AI industry possesses technology, users, and scenarios but must integrate them to create and capture value. Its ultimate success depends on navigating both fronts: companies must establish sustainable monetization on the Eastern Front, while the industry's Western strategy must evolve from simply "preserving people" (developer adoption) to truly "preserving both people and land" — transforming open-source ecosystem dominance into commercial success and premium brand value. This journey from being a "token factory" to a "value highland" will require strategic patience and the ability to outlast competitors in a prolonged contest.
