The State Of Crypto Derivatives

Empire

Crypto
Key Takeaways:
  1. **Risk Re-Priced**: Post-2022, understanding and mitigating counterparty and correlated risk is paramount; high returns often masked these dangers.
  2. **TradFi Rails Accelerate Crypto**: Publicly traded vehicles and ETFs are becoming key on-ramps, channeling traditional capital into crypto and reshaping market dynamics, notably compressing volatility.
  3. **Fundamental & On-Chain Focus**: Durable value (on-chain credit, strong L1s like Solana, revenue-generating protocols) and innovative on-chain derivatives platforms (like Hyperliquid) are prime areas of growth and investor interest.

How to Value L1s?

Lightspeed

Crypto
Key Takeaways:
  1. App Revenue as a Current Yardstick: For now, L1 "GDP" (market cap / app revenue) offers a more stable cross-chain valuation tool than direct fees, providing an "apples-to-apples" comparison.
  2. The Inevitable Value Shift: Expect a future where applications, not L1s, capture the lion's share of value, as app take rates and business models mature. L1 valuations may compress as app valuations expand.
  3. L1s Must Innovate to Retain Value: Blockchains like Solana are actively strategizing (e.g., application-specific sequencing) to keep successful apps within their ecosystems, highlighting the growing pressure on L1s to prove their enduring value proposition beyond basic infrastructure.

  2. Beware the "Mania": The proliferation of treasury vehicles with increasingly lax terms signals a speculative fever; MicroStrategy is an outlier, not the rule.
  3. VCs Bet on Endurance: True crypto investing, from a venture perspective, demands patience and a focus on fundamental, long-term growth, distinct from chasing fleeting treasury premiums.
