"Using price to sales models to understand a currency is wrong. Since Im young I believed in gold when everyone told me it didnt make sense to hold it. I believe Ethereum has financial properties of gold plus the ability to be used everywhere like Linux or Google. Great post and above is an even better synopsis. The same people trying to price ETH with P/S ration give a pass to BTC (and other assets depending on what they hold). Will be salty tears for years to come as ETH ascends to multi-trillion-dollar market cap. Cant say Im certain how high other major digital assets go but ETH alone has"

Borrowers like me are currently whitelisted in beta having verified we're overcollateralized on and offchain using zkTLS.

"ICYMI in October this proposal passed in a @maplefinance governance to end streaming protocol revenue in the form of SYRUP to stSYRUP holders. Instead XX% of ongoing protocol revenue will be allocated to the Syrup Strategic Fund (SSF) for SYRUP buybacks. Do we expect more DeFi protocols to focus on buybacks like this vs streaming token rewards or is this unique to a high-growth profitable protocol like Maple Btws Maple hit $2.11M monthly protocol rev in November it's second highest of the year after October. That's $25M ARR if they can sustain it"

"It's a bad story for someone who has the edge to get onchain and seek that yield themselves or just everyone I feel like Saylor and STRAT (without any native BTC yield involved) have proven there's massive demand in the public markets for any source of yield not just DeFi-native yield. Over time I think we'll see DATs competing to not only offer maximum staking yield but also maximum low-risk DeFi yield. Also I do expect a few DATs to emerge with multiple tokens in the treasury but I think there's clearer branding focus and edge in associating with a single token/community of investors"

"I wouldn't sell DATs to you or me or other DeFi native investors but I am confident a few DATs (1-2 DATs per token for top digital assets only) can be hugely successful. I also think the speculative element just wore off this fall due to the downtrend but in an uptrend we're forgetting how appealing buying $X of X token you're bullish on expecting X due to yield capture can be for bigger investors feeling late to buying major digital assets like BTC ETH HYPE etc. It will be hard to turn away from"

"It's going to be important mNAV holds above X for the major DATs or else there will a loss of confidence. @dschamis did a nice job addressing this in the podcast talking about the importance of managing mNAV to increase book value with buybacks for shareholders. Ofc when your shareholders are also high conviction investors in HYPE some will be upset if/when you sell their underlying bags to buy back shares. I thought this was a very practical answer one that investors would draw confidence from if hearing any DAT CEO say. Even though I fully understand the pressures DAT executives will face"

"One of the reasons I still believe DATs make a lotta sense even after a very dramatic run this summer is i) the idea of an equity wrapper for tokens without an ETF and ii) more importantly to offer DeFi yield on the public markets s/o to @SharpLink for pushing this theme. A small fraction of the largest investors in the world are able to get exposure to the top few top digital assets through ETFs (ie BTC and ETH) and then even fewer capture the staking yield for the major ETH ETFs but even after staking is turned on across ETH ETFs you're still missing DeFi yield that will surely be in demand"
