How Claude Code is Changing the World with Nick Emmons

The Rollup

Crypto
Key Takeaways:
  1. The migration from human-centric interfaces to agent-first protocols where software is a temporary utility rather than a permanent product.
  2. Use Git and MCP servers to give your agents a persistent memory and toolset, allowing them to work autonomously through complex loops.
  3. Software is no longer the prize; it is the commodity. Your value in the next year depends on how well you direct the agents that build it.

HIP-3 Market Design and Felix’s Role | Charlie, Felix Protocol

0xResearch

Crypto
Key Takeaways:
  1. The Macro Strategic Pivot: Vertical Consolidation. Protocols are moving away from modularity toward integrated stacks to capture maximum fee revenue.
  2. The Tactical Edge: Monitor BLP Rates. Watch the spread between Felix and Hyperliquid’s native lending rates. Capital will migrate to the platform offering the lowest borrow cost for margin trading.
  3. The Bottom Line: Hyperliquid is winning by becoming a DeFi Super App rather than just a perp engine. Its success over the next year depends on its ability to manage UI fragmentation while keeping all revenue inside the Hype ecosystem.
