普遍性的流动性激励往往吸引许多不忠实的流量,不利于协议长期发展。

在 2020 年掀起流动性「挖矿」浪潮的 Compound 正在逐步弃用这套激励措施。
几天前,Compound 社区成员 Tyler Loewen 发起了 92 号提案,提议将现有 COMP 奖励减少 50%。3 月 27 日,该提案被投票通过并开始执行,这使得 COMP 每日释放量将由 2312 枚降低至 1156 枚。
在社区看来,通证奖励吸引了许多投机者前来进行收益耕作,他们并不是协议真正的使用者,在获得奖励后会立即倾销 COMP,这对于真正的用户和通证持有者极为不利。
在通证奖励降低后,Tyler Loewen 还计划于 4 月 15 日发起取消流动性奖励的提案,他认为,将奖励用在借贷的实际业务层更有意义。
Tyler Loewen 最终的目标是引入替代奖励计划「kickstart 奖励」,该方案的逻辑是提高某资产的存款年化,以快速壮大该资产的市场规模,当存款量达到一定程度,借贷利率也将变得足够低,如此一来可以吸引更多的借贷活动。
自流动性贡献奖励兴起以来,DeFi 的整体市场规模获得了大幅增长,但其弊端在此期间也显露无遗。普遍性的流动性激励往往吸引许多不忠实的流量,不利于协议长期发展。在业内人士看来,将激励用在使协议更快满足市场需求上是更好的选择。
Compound 通过流动性奖励减半提案
2020 年 6 月 15 日,以太坊借贷协议 Compound 开创性地推出流动性激励计划,向参与借贷的双方分发 COMP 通证奖励。此举成为引爆 DeFi 市场的导火索,Balancer、Curve、SushiSwap 等应用纷纷推出激励机制,引发了一波「收益耕作」的淘金潮。
近两年后的今天,流动性挖矿的鼻祖 Compound 开始认真考虑停止 COMP 激励计划。社区认为,通证奖励吸引了许多投机者前来进行收益耕作,他们并不是协议真正的使用者,在获得奖励后,会立即倾销 COMP,这对于真正的用户和通证持有者极为不利。
3 月 19 日,Compound 社区成员 Tyler Loewen 在治理模块发起了以「COMP 奖励调整」为主题的 92 号提案,他提议将现有 COMP 奖励减少 50%,作为 Compound 彻底停止流动性激励的第一步。

 Compound 奖励减半提案获批
Tyler Loewen 称,COMP 奖励计划的最初目标是将通证分发给协议用户,虽然这是启动 Compound 和奖励早期用户的有效方式,但为了利润而进行 COMP 耕作的做法已经变得非常成问题。他观察到,当前,奖励计划分发的大多数 COMP 会立即售罄,这种耕作行为不会为协议或现有用户和通证持有者带来价值。
3 月 24 日,这项提案获得了超过 88 万 COMP 的赞成票,8.75 万 COMP 的反对票。最终,在 Polychain Capital、MonetSupply、GFX Labs、Pantera Capital 等机构的支持下,该提案顺利通过,并已于 3 月 27 日开始执行。
按照原先的 COMP 分发方式,每日分发 2312 COMP,这种分配机制将一直持续到储备金用完为止。分配给储备库的超 450 万 COMP 全部分发完毕将花费大约 4 年时间。按这个进度,COMP 奖励预计还将持续两年多。
在 92 号提案通过后,COMP 每日分发将降低至 1156 枚,这意味着收益耕作的收益率将降低 50%,而分发时间也将延长。
从当前社区的讨论来看,许多人对于停止奖励分发持开放态度,社区成员 Clairvoyant Labs 表示,同意结束 COMP 的通货膨胀,以使 COMP 持有者的份额不再被稀释。
根据 92 号提案发起者 Tyler Loewen 的计划,他还将于 4 月 15 日再次发起「将现有奖励降低为零」的提案,「该提案标志着以牺牲协议、用户以及通证持有者为代价的 COMP 农耕时代即将结束。」
这项提案能否被通过还有待投票决定,但 Compound 社区驱逐投机者的意图十分明显。
社区拟引入替代奖励计划激励用户
截至 3 月 29 日,Compound 协议锁仓的加密资产总价值(TVL)为 72.8 亿美元,近 7 天上涨了 3.79%。奖励减半的提案通过后,协议的 TVL 暂未大幅流失。
可以预见的是,如果停止奖励发放,用户在 Compound 的质押收益率也将大幅下降,届时追逐存款收益的用户不排除会迁移去其他协议,存贷资金流动性不足的风险可能会出现。
为了防止这种情况发生,Tyler Loewen 认为,Compound 需要进一步优化利率模型。他表示,协议的市场规模和活动不应由 COMP 奖励来决定,而应该让供需接管。「过去的时间,我们深深忽视了利率模型,当前的次优利率模型可能难以维持各种资产的借贷市场,同时保持足够的流动性。」
当前,在 Compound 存入主流资产的利率相比 AAVE 等借贷平台不占优势。以存入 USDT 为例,AAVE 的年化收益率为 4.89%,dForce 为 6.41%,而 Compound 为 3.55%;存入资产为 ETH 时,AAVE 的年化收益率为 0.39%,dForce 为 1.02%,Compound 仅为 0.07%。
由于收益率不及其他 DeFi 协议,Compound 的 TVL 当前排在 DeFi 协议第 8 位,落后于 Lido、Maker、Aave 等其他具有「理财」属性的应用。

 Compound TVL 排在 DeFi 协议第 8 位
社区成员认为,Compound 的利率模型还有优化的空间,需要智能衡量市场供需关系,并随之实时调整为最优的利率水平,以吸引用户加入。
此外,一旦 Compound 停止流动性激励的提案通过,Tyler Loewen 还计划引入替代奖励计划「kickstart 奖励」,该方案是在三个月内以 Y% 年化收益率激励某个资产的市场规模达到 X 美元。其中的 X 和 Y 作为变量尚有待讨论。
比如,Compound 想要开通 APE Coin 的借贷通道,但流动性不够,那么平台便可以使用储备金提高 APE 存款池的收益率,例如以 8% 的年化收益率吸引 1000 万美元的存款。Tyler Loewen 认为,只有吸引储户提供足够的流动性,才能降低借贷成本,吸引更多借贷活动。
Tyler Loewen 的提案计划公布后迎来许多讨论,多数社区成员认为,相比统一向所有存款和借贷用户发放奖励,将激励用在借贷本身的业务场景中是更理想的方案。
Compound 流动性激励策略的改变也给其他 DeFi 协议带来启发。当前,除了 Uniswap 不再分发 UNI 外,多数 DeFi 协议仍维持着流动性激励方案,但这种方式的弊端早已显现,流动性奖励往往难以有效提升协议的真实使用率,对协议的长期发展不太有利。
DeFi 行业观察者认为,在认识到流动性挖矿的弊端后,协议们应该将目光着眼于需求,并将激励用在满足需求方面,比如在人们有新资产的交易需求时,DEX 协议可以通过激励方式快速提高新资产的流动性,以降低交易滑点,从而吸引用户前来交易。「当激励回归业务场景,而不再追求短暂的 TVL 和用户增长,才能让协议走在良性的发展轨道上。」

Miners Advised Not to Buy GPUs for AI and to Focus on Infrastructure

A founder at an energy investment forum advises bitcoin miners not to purchase GPUs for AI themselves, but to instead focus on infrastructure like power and data center space. Mike Alfred of Alpine Fox stated that while AI infrastructure demand is a long-term, 20-30 year trend, it presents a key choice for miners. The first, riskier model involves owning and operating GPUs, which requires financing expensive hardware that quickly becomes obsolete. The second, more conservative model is akin to real estate: providing colocation services where clients bring their own servers, and the miner sells space, power, cooling, and water. Alfred noted this model is easier to finance. Most existing bitcoin mining sites are difficult and expensive to convert for AI, as AI data centers require far higher construction costs, redundant fiber connections, backup power, complex cooling, and near 100% uptime. A hybrid model, where mining acts as a flexible load to use excess power during AI data center construction or from generation facilities, was discussed. However, participants concluded this is only viable with very cheap power; otherwise, developers are better off focusing solely on AI. Miners are increasingly being evaluated for their available power capacity and project portfolios rather than just bitcoin output. Panelists also warned of risks in the AI sector, predicting at least one major default or contract breach among AI tenants, lenders, or landlords before bitcoin's next halving in 2028.

Millisecond 'Pay-to-Cut': How Did Hyperliquid's Priority Fee Turn into a Multi-Million Dollar Business?

"Millisecond 'Paid Queue-Jumping': How Hyperliquid's Priority Fee Became a Multi-Million Dollar Annual Business" In traditional finance, high-frequency trading firms spend millions on infrastructure for millisecond advantages. Hyperliquid has translated this race onto the blockchain with its "Priority Fee" system, creating an open economic game for speed. This system auctions two types of priority: **Gossip Priority** for faster data feeds (via a Dutch auction every 3 minutes), and **Order Priority** for front-of-queue trade execution (users bid a fee for lower latency). This converts a hardware race into a transparent, market-priced mechanism. Since launch, this feature has generated over $5M in protocol revenue. Projected annualized buybacks from this income exceed $30M, accounting for ~7% of total protocol revenue. The demand stems from large traders and market makers on Hyperliquid, for whom milliseconds can mean the difference between profit/loss or avoiding liquidation. Market makers pay these fees as "protection" to ensure their orders execute first, which in turn improves liquidity for all users. Crucially, Hyperliquid internalizes Maximum Extractable Value (MEV) that typically leaks to external validators or searchers, creating a new revenue stream beyond trading fees. The mechanism also strengthens HYPE's tokenomics. While 97% of trading fees fund secondary market buybacks (via the Assistance Fund), Priority Fees are **directly burned**, adding a second deflationary engine. Furthermore, fees for order priority are deducted from users' undelegated HYPE balances, encouraging large traders to hold and lock up tokens, reducing circulating supply. However, a key challenge remains: balancing the speed needs of institutional players with fair market access for retail users, as those who cannot pay high fees may suffer worse slippage during volatility. In summary, Hyperliquid's Priority Fee is a novel model that monetizes latency, captures MEV for the protocol, and enhances its native token's value through burning and lock-ups.

The Truth Behind Digital Banking: The Fragile Ecosystem Supporting 1.46 Billion Users

The article "The Truth About Digital Banks: The Fragile Ecosystem Behind 1.46 Billion Users" provides a data-driven analysis of the digital banking sector based on a verified list of 368 active neobanks as of July 2026. While these platforms collectively serve 1.46 billion users, with Asia (817 million users) and institutions like WeBank and Nubank dominating the landscape, the sector faces significant structural vulnerabilities. A key finding is that only 127 of the 368 neobanks hold full banking licenses. The majority operate atop third-party infrastructure providers like Banking-as-a-Service (BaaS) platforms, creating systemic risk where the failure of a single provider, as seen in past cases like Wirecard and Synapse, can jeopardize multiple consumer brands. Furthermore, the industry experiences a steady, quiet stream of failures, mergers, and shutdowns that often go unreported. The analysis also examines the adoption of artificial intelligence (AI), finding only 67 platforms (18%) have deployed AI at scale, with many innovators based in emerging markets like Nigeria and the Philippines. The infrastructure layer is highly concentrated, with 106 providers supporting the entire ecosystem of 368 consumer-facing brands. The article concludes with three predictions: the unlicensed gap will close through acquisitions or exits; an AI credit model is likely to fail in the next economic downturn; and a nascent but significant trend is the emergence of financial services designed for AI agents rather than humans.

Digital Asset Trading Platform Uphold Cuts 17% of Global Workforce Amid 'Crypto Winter'

Cryptocurrency trading platform Uphold has laid off approximately 17% of its global workforce, affecting 85 full-time employees and contractors. The cuts are part of a strategic shift to reallocate resources towards its rapidly growing corporate services business, as retail cryptocurrency trading activity has declined amid the ongoing market downturn. CEO Simon McLaughlin stated the company is restructuring after years of significant growth and remains confident in the long-term prospects of digital assets and blockchain technology. Founded in 2015, Uphold offers trading and custody services for cryptocurrencies, fiat, stocks, and precious metals. It has recently expanded to provide infrastructure for banks, fintech firms, and broker-dealers to integrate crypto services. The layoffs occur against a backdrop of a prolonged crypto market slump, with total market capitalization falling to around $2.1 trillion by Q2 2024. Factors include weakened trading volumes, reduced retail participation, interest rate hikes, geopolitical uncertainty, and net outflows from U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs. Uphold clarified it is not shutting down its UK operations or any international offices. The company highlighted strong growth in its corporate platform and announced plans to evolve its consumer app into a broader blockchain-based financial assistant by 2026, offering U.S. stocks, tokenized securities, lending, credit cards, and DeFi yield opportunities.
