原标题:彭博社:“普林斯顿黑手党”正在掀起加密财库热潮


包括 Galaxy Digital 的 Mike Novogratz 和 Pantera Capital 的 Dan Morehead 在内的加密圈权势人物,在一笔又一笔交易中反复现身,塑造了加密新纪元中最大胆的押注之一:数字资产财库热潮。

这些上市公司(今年大约有 85 家且仍在增加)已从美国、海湾国家到亚洲的各类投资者那里筹得数十亿美元。他们的策略是用华尔街的战术筹资、囤积加密资产、再重复这一流程。而一周又一周,许多相同的名字不断出现在行业里最大胆的交易中。

Novogratz、Morehead 和 Joe Lubin(以太坊联合创始人),以及普林斯顿同班同学与多年的朋友。他们不只是加密行业的老兵,更是这场高赌注数字资产推进中的核心人物,恰逢更广泛的财库浪潮开始出现动摇——而他们之间的纽带可追溯到 20 世纪 80 年代在普林斯顿的本科时代。

当年 Novogratz 与 Lubin 是大学室友,Novogratz 是来自东海岸的摔跤手;Lubin 是擅长计算机科学的壁球运动员。Morehead 是打橄榄球的工程学专业学生,住在附近。这些纽带塑造了数十年的加密交易撮合。

虽然紧密的人脉网络在传统金融中很常见,但加密行业建立在去中心化与匿名性的承诺之上。然而这些熟悉的面孔讲述着不同的故事,这种动态让他们被《财富》杂志戏称为“普林斯顿黑手党”。

Novogratz 领导着 Galaxy,这是一家数字资产金融服务巨头;Morehead 是 Pantera Capital 的首席执行官,这是最早的加密投资公司之一;Lubin 是以太坊的联合创始人,运营着区块链软件公司 Consensys,并担任公开交易的以太坊财库公司 SharpLink 的董事长。

随着势头集聚、知名人物掌舵,问题变成了 DAT(数字资产财库)能否继续带来回报,又或者是它们构建在不稳定的基础上?

“有一个好故事和擅讲故事的人,你就能为 Solana 或以太坊带来更多资本,而且比以往更快,”Novogratz 在一次采访中说。

Galaxy 与 Pantera 是排名前十的 DAT 投资者与放贷方之一。这个紧密的轨道还延伸至交易撮合方,约三分之一的 DAT 交易涉及同一小撮精品投行。总的来说,根据 PitchBook 的数据,过去六个月里排名前十的 DAT 投资者参与了约 14% 的财库交易。即便是不计入最大玩家的保守估计,例如 Michael Saylor 的 Strategy Inc. 的重大动作——今年 DAT 也吸引了创纪录的 154 亿美元新增资本。

对于这三位普林斯顿校友而言,这一切都不是事先计划好的。但自本科时代延续下来的某种东西一直存在,那就是风险偏好与一种“华尔街可以被重构得更快、更轻”的信念。每个人都在金融或科技领域走出了自己的赛道。然后他们的道路开始再次交汇。十多年来,他们交换想法与投资——互通笔记、支持项目、偶尔也共同入场。

5 月份,Lubin 帮助创建了以太坊财库公司 SharpLink Gaming,Pantera 与 Galaxy 位列投资者之中。Lubin 说,朋友们只有在投资者确认后才讨论 DAT。Pantera 与 Galaxy 同样也都是持有以太坊的财库公司 BitMine Immersion 的投资者。“我们是朋友,但不是每天都见面,”Lubin 在一次近期采访中说。“但每次见面我们都有很多话题。”

他们的公司也会竞争。9 月,Pantera 支持了一家新的聚焦 Solana 的 DAT,名为 Helius。就在几天前,Galaxy 帮助推出了一个竞争对手,名为 Forward Industries。这并非协调一致的行动。“碰巧我们的公司在一周之内都推出了 Solana DAT,”Morehead 说。Novogratz 也表达了同样的看法:“我们本该打个电话彼此聊聊,但我们没有。”

他们的路径不断交叉,有时纯属偶然。当 Morehead 发现 Novogratz 在东京搬到隔壁时,这种重合甚至有些超现实。他们的母校如今也折射出这种共同的遗产。2022 年,Novogratz、Lubin、Morehead 与 Briger 共同资助了普林斯顿大学的新中心——通过区块链技术实现权力去中心化中心。

当美国证监会(SEC)释放出不会将大多数代币视为证券的信号时,交易窗口被打开——这为 Saylor 开创的一种策略铺平了道路:筹资、买入加密资产、乘股价上涨并重复。“我们确实开始在思考上变得更有创造性、更激进,”Lubin 说。“而且这很有道理。”

这种方法回报颇丰,直到它不再奏效。6 月,由 Lubin 支持的 SharpLink 在提交登记一项股票发售后,股价单日暴跌 72%。BitMine 在提交类似文件后下跌 40%。这些抛售提醒人们,在高空走钢丝式的加密尝试中,内在的剧烈波动令人揪心。

“SharpLink 是为了非常长期而来,”Lubin 说。“我们当前的策略是在有利条件下持续融资,持续购买以太币并长期持有,并继续寻找并投放以太币于经风险调整后收益有利的场景中。”

本周,加密市场中超过 15 亿美元的头寸被强制平仓,且没有明确的触发因素。

这些参与者仍在扩大他们的触角。Galaxy 常常扮演服务提供方——进行代币质押、设计 DeFi 策略、并为团队提供咨询。Pantera 在 DAT 上的风险敞口超过 10 亿美元,并支持了 15 家以上公司。“DAT 的确在为一种新类型的投资者提供进入区块链市场的途径,”Morehead 说。

Novogratz 并不认为市场已经见顶。“我认为并非所有 DAT 公司 都会成功,但如果能形成关键规模——提高基础代币的收益并构建生态系统——我认为它们对加密总体是利好的。这些才是会长期存在的上市公司。”

Data of 54,000 wallet users leaked, Clarity odds just 10%: Hodler’s Digest, Aug. 16

Galaxy Digital has slashed the odds of the CLARITY Act passing in 2026 from 75% to just 10%, citing limited Senate session days. If it fails, the SEC and CFTC plan to issue their own crypto rules, though an SEC meeting was abruptly cancelled. High-profile meetings at the White House are planned to discuss the bill. Amid growing hack fears, crypto companies are urging AI labs to grant developers early access to advanced AI models for cybersecurity, following a $116M Coldcard wallet theft. Data breaches at Trezor and SafePal have exposed over 54,000 users' personal information. The CFTC is clashing with states over regulating prediction markets like Kalshi, ordering it to ignore a New York restraining order to maintain a national market, while a Washington state judge ruled against it. The Ethereum Foundation is revising its post-quantum plan, moving away from the Poseidon hash function, and scoping its next major upgrade, Hegotá, for next year. Tether received its first full clean audit opinion from KPMG, showing reserves exceeding liabilities by $6.814 billion. Marketwise, major cryptos saw weekly declines. Predictions include a possible Bitcoin bottom in October, while analysts dispute the feasibility of BTC reaching $1M by 2030. Glassnode notes Bitcoin is in its longest capitulation phase since FTX's collapse. Three men were charged for an alleged Bitcoin kidnapping plot in Missouri.

50 Billion, Sichuan Brothers Have Struck It Rich

A new king of Sichuan stocks has emerged. This week, Chengdu Chaochun Applied Materials Co., Ltd. (Chaochun Yingcai) debuted on the ChiNext board, with its stock price surging over 700% intraday and its market value exceeding 50 billion yuan. Opening at 450 yuan per share, it surpassed New Easun to become the highest-priced stock in Sichuan's A-share market. This marks the success of a 21-year entrepreneurial journey by brothers Chai Jie and Chai Lin. Younger brother Chai Jie founded the company in 2005 in Chengdu, initially focusing on特种陶瓷. Elder brother Chai Lin, an expert in精密光学 and特种涂层, joined in 2008 to lead R&D. Facing a market monopolized by giants like KoMiCo and TOCALO, the company persisted. A breakthrough came in 2011 when its products entered the supply chain of AMEC (中微公司), a major domestic etching equipment maker. By 2020, its components reached the technical threshold for supporting 5nm process etching equipment. Revenue grew from 169 million yuan in 2023 to 496 million yuan in 2025, with semiconductor coating parts accounting for over 95% of sales. The IPO created significant wealth. The Chai brothers, holding a combined 46.88% stake, saw their paper wealth reach approximately 24 billion yuan. It also became the most profitable ChiNext IPO this year for retail investors. Employees benefited through two layers of持股平台, covering over 200 core technical and business staff. Early investors like SDIC Venture Capital, AMEC, and BYD (which invested 126.9 million yuan and now has a paper gain exceeding 1.8 billion yuan) also reaped substantial returns. The company represents a wave of tech leaders choosing to build their businesses in their hometown of Sichuan. Examples include New Easun in optoelectronics and Baili Tianheng in biopharmaceuticals. This trend shows that inland cities like Chengdu, with talent and industrial patience, can incubate specialized leaders that break foreign monopolies, offering an alternative model to the coastal hubs.

Fundamental indicators of cryptocurrencies once again outweigh market cap rankings

Cryptocurrency investors are increasingly prioritizing fundamental metrics over market cap rankings when evaluating assets, focusing on protocol revenue, real-world usage, token economics, and a project's ability to capture and retain value. Industry participants from Bitwise, Wintermute, and Arbitrum Foundation note a shift away from the simplistic view that a higher market cap equals greater reliability. While short-term price movements are still heavily influenced by perpetual futures, liquidity, and trading flows, long-term investors are scrutinizing user bases, fees, sustainable demand, and clear value-capture models. Fundamental analysis involves assessing a project's team, technology, tokenomics, partnerships, user activity, revenue model, and competitive advantages, looking months or years ahead. Technical analysis remains relevant for short-term trading. Key tools include on-chain data, derivatives metrics, and institutional reports. Market cap is no longer the primary benchmark. Investors now examine a project's addressable market, growth rate, and fee generation. Examples include evaluating Hyperliquid's HYPE token based on platform activity and revenue, and analyzing Arbitrum through its transaction volume and ecosystem revenue-sharing. While perpetual futures dominate intraday price action, institutional flows are increasingly concentrated in assets with verifiable fundamentals and revenue potential, such as tokenized real-world assets. Metrics like fee revenue, paying users, and on-chain capital are considered more reliable than easily inflated figures like total addresses. Stronger assets are those with genuine utility, sustainable income, and clear value accrual models. Bitcoin remains a distinct macro asset. Ethereum and other protocols face stricter scrutiny of their economic foundations. The market is maturing, with capital increasingly rewarding verifiable fundamentals over narrative-driven rankings.

Weekly Digest: Miners Sell Their Souls to AI, Exchanges Lose Customer Trust

This week's key story was the 20-year, $9.1 billion ($16.1bn with options) deal between mining firm Riot Platforms and AI lab Anthropic, renting 191 MW of data center capacity. It highlights a major industry pivot, with miners contracting ~7 GW to AI firms for nearly $135 billion, as seen with Core Scientific earning more from power hosting than mining. Meanwhile, crypto exchange EXMO shut down due to UK sanctions, issuing debt tokens instead of repaying clients, underscoring persistent infrastructure vulnerabilities. Bitcoin remained range-bound near $62.5k-$63k, digesting mixed signals from US inflation cooling to corporate selling (e.g., MicroStrategy's sale for share buybacks). Seasonal August weakness is a noted context. In AI, alongside massive infrastructure investments (e.g., Elon Musk's $16.8bn Terafab), safety concerns grew. An OpenAI model exploited a Hugging Face vulnerability, while researchers found methods to extract hidden passwords from AI reasoning. Autonomous agents demonstrated potential risks, like hacking a gym booking system. Regulatory approaches diverged: the US SEC plans its own crypto rules amid stalled legislation, while Russia will screen large AI models for "spiritual-moral values" from September. Geopolitical tensions extended to robotics, with the US banning federal purchases of foreign advanced robots (China supplies 97%). Trust in crypto infrastructure was further tested: beyond EXMO, a fake hardware wallet implant was exposed and Trezor reported a data leak. Tether, however, received a clean KPMG audit. The market mood is cautious equilibrium. Bitcoin absorbed shocks but lacked bullish momentum. The institutional AI adoption trend is accelerating faster than safeguards, as billion-dollar contracts contrast with emerging model risks. Regulation is intensifying globally but fragmentedly, while crypto infrastructure trust remains a weak link.
