In summer of 2023 I deposited around 2k USDC into HLP vault.
I got an airdrop roughly worth around 32k USD based on just that alone, a year and a half later.
This should tell you something.
If you're spamming txs on HyperEVM hoping to hit an "arbitrum style" criteria list threadors are telling you to - congrats, you're dumb.
You need capital to play around in HyperEVM.
You need to use the janky pseudostablecoins.
You need to LP garbage yet oddly nascent and native community coins, not for yield, but for the culture.
You probably need to own a @HypioHL or a @drip__trade hypers.
You need to interact with as many apps as possible, but not just approve swap and swap back for volume - you need to commit funds, LP, stay there, don't jump around too much.
You need to use Hyper Core to buy and sell things, and most importantly bridge them. You need to be @hyperunit maxxing.
You need to be a user, not a wallet.
You will get rewarded.
You have a year more.

Saylor Bets $75 Billion on Microsoft Joining Bitcoin Revolution
MicroStrategy executive chairman Michael Saylor challenged one of the internet industry's richest titans at Bitcoin for Corporations 2025. He told chief financial officers and treasury executives that Microsoft should invest tens of billions of dollars in Bitcoin, calling it “the universal, perpetual, profitable merger partner” that outperforms all other treasury assets in the artificial-intelligence age.
Microsoft Needs Bitcoin: Saylor
Saylor compared sharply. Microsoft has grown 18% annually for five years. Bitcoin is up 62%, he added, adding that the S&P 500's 14% compound growth rate is the corporate capital allocation benchmark. “Normalize everything against that cost of capital and Microsoft outperforms by 4%. Bitcoin is 48%. Negative bonds. When the top asset is compounding roughly 50% above the cost of money, why keep the item that destroys capital?
He then examined Microsoft's financial sheet mix. He said, “If Microsoft buys bonds, you're destroying 99.7% of your capital over ten years.” Buying your own stock is just slightly less disastrous—you lose 97%. A Bitcoin purchase is 10 times better than MSFT redemption.”
Saylor claims Bitcoin starts a third monetary era. Gold was nineteenth-century money; sovereign debt was twentieth. He called Bitcoin the first liquid, fungible capital instrument with no counterparty in the 21st century. His institutional “year zero” for Bitcoin is 2024, “the moment the SEC blessed spot ETFs and FASB signaled fair-value accounting.” In that timeline, 2025 is “year one” and the first-mover advantage window is closing.
Saylor concluded with his longest unbroken passage: “Rich people are rich because they own hard assets, not because they expect cash flows. I would rather invest in a wealthy firm than one that takes away money and pledges to work harder and increase prices forever.”

Ethereum has a big issue: centralization.
Not everyone can run their own node; you have to be a whale. This leads us to the risks of validator slashing.
@Obol_Collective came up with a fix: Distributed Validator Technology.
Here's what you need to know 🧵
➣ What's @Obol_Collective?
The Obol Collective is the largest decentralized operator ecosystem.
The technology centers on Distributed Validator Technology (DVT), a groundbreaking innovation allowing multiple independent node operators to manage a single Ethereum validator jointly.
➣ What problems does it solve?
- Network resilience: Protect against hardware failures
- Risk mitigation: Reduce the risk of validator slashing
- Access and decentralization: Enable smaller players to participate in staking
- Operational efficiency: Lower infrastructure and coordination overhead
➣ Key Metrics
- Obol is the DVT leader, securing almost $1 billion in staked assets
- Almost 16,000 unique validators supported
- 600+ unique node operators live
- 500K+ user signups during testnet campaign

If you ever wondered what powers Lido’s decentralization? That's right, it's Obol’s DV middleware. Obol is a trusted partner of @LidoFinance (the largest ETH staker platform).
Moreover, it has a strong partnership with @EtherFi, and Obol has been mentioned by @VitalikButerin as essential to Ethereum's roadmap.
➣ Backers
Obol has raised $21 million from some of the top names in crypto, such as @cbventures, @PanteraCapital, @Delphi_Digital, etc.
By the way, Obol's team is fully doxxed. U.S.-registered team ensures transparency and regulatory clarity. As demand for compliant infra tokens rises, Obol is front-running the demand.

Gm.
All of this was covered in yesterday’s AMA but here’s a TLDR of updates on @AIVAonAVAX:
1. We initially planned on launching right BEFORE the Summit but the project has a bit of a higher profile now & my advisors/handlers (some of the smartest & well-connected ppl in the space) unanimously believe the project would benefit from me meeting everyone I should meet PRIOR to launch in person at the Summit, so we are now aiming to launch directly AFTER the Summit. The downside is a few extra weeks, the upside is substantial imho.
2. I am making good use of this time by forging new partnerships. I agreed on 2 new ones on Tuesday and we will be rolling out announcements in coming weeks.
3. We are also rolling out a very innovative launch strategy which hasn’t been used or seen in a while, so gives us more time to prepare.
4. In conjunction w folks within the AVAX team, we are finalizing the details of a very cool side event during the Summit, which I’m sure will be a highlight for many ppl.
Bullish tbh.
