编者按:DeFi 储蓄协议 Sky(原 MakerDAO) 在 2025 年第一季度亏损 500 万美元,与上一季度 3100 万美元盈利形成鲜明对比。亏损主要因激励使用新稳定币 USDS 而非 DAI,导致利息支付激增 102%。尽管 USDS 旨在吸引资深投资者,但其用户基础增长不明,协议盈利受高利率拖累。

以下为原文内容(为便于阅读理解,原内容有所整编):

TL;DR

· DeFi 储蓄协议 Sky(原 MakerDAO) 第一季度亏损 500 万美元,较上一季度 3100 万美元的盈利大幅下滑。

· 为激励用户使用新稳定币 USDS 而非 DAI,该协议对储户的利息支付增加了 102%。

· 尽管推出了 USDS 以吸引 sophisticated 投资者,但尚不清楚是否显著扩大了 Sky 的用户基础。

据 Sky 贡献者 Steakhouse Financial 的报告,DeFi 储蓄协议 Sky 在第一季度亏损 500 万美元,原因是向代币持有者的利息支付翻倍有余。

这一亏损与上一季度形成鲜明对比,当时 Sky 录得 3100 万美元的盈利。利息支付增加 102% 的原因是协议决定激励用户使用较新的 Sky 美元稳定币(USDS)而非现有 DAI。

「Sky 储蓄利率保持在 12.5%,相对于市场其他部分非常高,吸引了大量资金流入,」Sky 联合创始人 Rune Christensen 通过 Telegram 对 CoinDesk 表示。当 Sky 在 2 月将利率降低至 4.5% 时,许多投资者仍选择留下,他说。

这种情况对该协议来说是一把双刃剑,该协议是 2017 年在以太坊上涌现的首批去中心化金融应用之一。

Sky 的运作类似于传统银行。它需要以高于支付给储户的利率向他人放贷。

然而,在没有相应增加 USDS 需求的情况下提供更高的利率正在损害协议的盈利能力,区块链研究与开发公司 GFX Labs 的治理联络人 PaperImperium 通过 Telegram 对 CoinDesk 表示。

「USDS 对收益构成重大拖累,」他说。「DAI 赚钱,USDS 则不然。」

推动 USDS 是 Sky 所谓「终局计划」的一部分,该计划由 Christensen 领导,旨在将协议转变为更去中心化和韧性的系统。

没有新需求?

当 Sky 从 MakerDAO 更名并在 8 月推出 USDS 作为终局计划的一部分时,计划是新稳定币将吸引与 DAI 不同的用户群体。

USDS 设计上更符合法规和财务报告要求,目标是吸引对冲基金、家族办公室和其他希望涉足去中心化金融的 sophisticated 机构投资者。

但尚不清楚 USDS 是否吸引了大量新用户。

投资者在 USDS 和 DAI 上可获得的回报不同:USDS 支付 4.5% 的收益率,而 DAI 为 2.75%。

许多投资者将 DAI 换成了 USDS,这意味着 Sky 需要向那些之前满足于较低收益率甚至无收益率的用户支付更多,PaperImperium 表示。

报告称,自本季度初以来,USDS 和 DAI 的总量增加了 57%。但这一增长的很大一部分来自合成美元协议 Ethena,该协议向质押的 USDS 投入了超过 4.5 亿美元,并将收益传递给质押其自身稳定币 USDe 的用户。

在过去一周,Ethena 将其部分储备从 USDS 转向 USDtb——一种由 BlackRock 的美元机构数字流动性基金(BUIDL)支持的稳定币。

此举意味着流通中的 USDS 减少。但这也可能通过减少协议必须支付的利息金额而惠及 Sky。

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.
